I have a parent process that has quick tasks that are on sub-process nodes (completion of the quick task, starts the child sub-process). These quick tasks currently use Portal Forms and I am changing them to use a SAIL rule-based form instead (I am not using a Portal form that is enabled for SAIL -- I need more dynamic features). Using the SAIL rule-based form, how do you map values from the parent process into the parameters of the start form for the child sub-process?

Yeah, I didn't seem to find anything there regarding using a SAIL Form on a sub-process' node task input form. I tried configuring the task form like a start form (using PVs in the input parameters), and the PV value just doesn't get passed down into the sub-process if the value gets captured on the sub-process task form in the parent process.

In the QT's SAIL as Start Form Parameter,
1. Mention var:ac!var
2. In the ACP of user input form, get the value from the rule input and save to pv
3. Now on the Sub Process Assign the variables by val or reference to the child process model

I don't think I understand your comment. Has anyone had success using a SAIL rule-based form on an attended sub-process node that passes in data captured on that form?

Hi jorgea, in your sub process node which is configured as the quick task, where you configure your sail form rule, pass the necessary pvs from your parent process(where this quick task sub process node lies) and once you are done with it, in the set up where we configure inputs values, pass your all those necessary pvs. (make sure to make the child node process variables as parameters, whose value is been expected to come from the parent process where the quick task node lies).
