In a process I have 3-4 user input tasks in series those are assigned to different groups.What i want to achieve is that the 4th task in the series must be assigned to the person who has completed the first task in the process where as first task initially is being assigned to a specific group.In a nutshell,i need to know the person inside a group who has completed a user input task and then dynamically i want to assign next task to the same person.
Any pointers will be really helpful for me....

In the data tab-->outputs, capture the tp!owner in to a process variable of type user. You can use this variable in the 4th task. See the task properties to find the tp!owner details here:

One of the first attributes you should make use of for the 'First Task' is the task property 'Owner' (tp!owner). This activity class is pretty much the user who submitted the task form.

You can assign tp!owner as an output value and store it into a USER process variable in the Data tab.

Then in your fourth task, use that USER process variable to be the assignee.

Hope this helps.
