APAR status

  • Closed as program error.

Error description

  • In a process application process, if "Optimize execution for

service task exists between those human services, completing a
task by using a REST API fails.

PRODUCTS AFFECTED
IBM Business Automation Workflow

Local fix

  • Don't use the REST API to complete a task when the following
task of an autoflowed task is a service. Instead, use the
Business Automation Workflow Portal to complete the task.

Problem summary

  • When you use a REST API to complete tasks, the transaction is
paused and the information is unavailable to calculate the
following task if an autoflowed task is followed by a service
task.

Problem conclusion

  • A fix is available or will be available that allows the required
 information to be accessible and the task to complete
successfully.

Temporary fix
