Local fix

Problem summary

  • When a process flow crosses a swimlane and then re-enters the
    swimlane, the task won't be assigned to any user if the last
    user in the lane is specificed. This issue occurs since you
    upgraded to IBM Business Process Manager V8.6 CF201712.
    

Problem conclusion

  • A fix that assigns the task to the user of the task that is
    closed last in the lane will be included in a future release of
    IBM Business Automation Workflow.
    
    A new configuration property is introduced:
    <enable-legacy-lane-last-user-assignment>
    The default value is 'true', that means the fix is enabled by
    default.
    
    When updating this value to 'false' through changing
    100Custom.xml file:
    <bpd-engine>
     <enable-legacy-lane-last-user-assignment
    merge="replace">false</enable-legacy-lane-last-user-assignment>
    </bpd-engine>
    
    BPM performs an additional check to verify that the last closed
    task in your lane is also the last closed task in the process.
