IBM Business Process Manager - Process Federation Server 8.5.7.0 Cumulative Fix 2016.09 (8.5.7.0 CF2016.09)

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• When IBM Process Portal in IBM Business Process Manager (BPM)
  V8.5.7 is configured to use an IBM Process Federation Server
  that federates only BPEL systems, you do not see tasks in the
  task list in Process Portal.
  
  PRODUCTS AFFECTED
  IBM BPM Advanced
  IBM BPM Standard
  

Local fix

Problem summary

• The federated query REST API in Process Federation Server,
  called by Process Portal to retrieve the task list, collects
  fields for tasks from federated systems. When only BPEL systems
  are federated, the federated systems do not return task fields
  that are specific to BPMN tasks although you expect those fields
  to be returned.
  

Problem conclusion

• A fix is available for IBM Business Process Manager - Process
  Federation ServerV 8.5.7.0 Cumulative Fix 201604 (8.5.7.0
  CF201604) that makes task fields common to all federated
  systems, allowing the task list to be rendered in Process
  Portal. For download and installation instructions, see
