  The error can also happen after other operations, for example
  when a process goes to the next activity and creates a task.
  
  The error can also happen on systems without Basic Case
  Management but that use an external IBM FileNet Content Manager
  as repository for the IBM BPM document store.

Local fix

Problem summary

• On a system with the Basic Case Management function enabled or
  with an external FileNet Content Manager as the repository for
  the IBM BPM document store, fine-grained access control is
  applied to local documents and case folders. When the tasks for
  an instance change, for example when a new task is created or
  when a task is reassigned, these updates must be propagated to
  authorize the documents and case folder of the instance. During
  this update, IBM BPM builds a batch with updates for the IBM BPM
  document store. This batch contained the creation of a new
  object as second item, but the first item already used this new
  object.
  

Problem conclusion

• A fix will be included in IBM BPM V8.5.7 cumulative fix 2017.03
  that ensures items are inserted in the correct order into the
  batch.
