Manual Task

Introduction

Manual Task

info

A Manual Task is a Task that is expected to be performed without the aid of any business process execution engine or any application. An example of this could be a telephone technician installing a telephone at a customer location.

— BPMN 2.0.2 Standard, 10.3.3, Manual Task

In Flowable, Manual Tasks have no execution semantics. They are usually used for documentation purposes only. However, it is possible to place execution listeners on them as with any other activity.

An action for a user of the Flowable Work application can be modeled with the User Task.

Example

The following example shows how a Manual Task which is non-executable (Collect Cash) is used to clarify a model.
