Error description

  • In the desktop IBM Process Designer, dropping an external
implementation into a business process definition (BPD) diagram
generates an activity of Implementation = System Task when
dropped into the System lane or = User Task when dropped into
another lane. The implementation remains the same after you move
it around to a different lane.

In the web Process Designer, dropping an external service that
has an external implementation into a process diagram always
generates an activity of Implementation = System Task. It should
behave like the desktop Process Designer by generating an
activity of Implementation = User Task when the target lane is
not the System lane.

  • A fix will be included in IBM BPM V8.5.7 cumulative fix 2017.06

Designer with the equivalent function in the desktop Process
Designer.
