I am checking on how to develop a process where we can then allow a person to review similar tasks and then do a mass approval or rejection for the tasks. I realize mobile feature has a nice swipe feature for each task to make approval easy. We do not have mobile at this time, so, my thought is to update the process with the tasks for approval with receive messages. Have another process have send messages that will communicate with the processes. The approval process will review the tasks active and then show them in a grid. I would default to being approved. Click submit and the process will then loop through to do a send message to approve the task. How does this solution sound? Any other ideas?

If I understand your requirement, you don't need to use the process to process messages at all. Simply create a smart plugin using task APIs. Look at the Task Puppeteer for sample code. Process to Process message complicates the design to handle all kinds of exceptions.

We will try the inline task approval. We have to develop it and then demo it. We do not use Tempo as our main entry to Appian, so, we have to change how these managers view Appian information.

I have a question as to how to define the task name. Can the use of char() be used without future deprecation? What about bolding labels?

For the task in Tempo - it has Approval ability. Are you considering having more choices here? Like reject... If you click reject - a comment box drops down so you can enter the reason for the rejection? - I think I saw this is possible for the mobile device.
