Task list inconsistency

mikej117 over 8 years ago

For the applications that we have built, we get an occasional issue where the task list is inconsistent with the following expected state: a user has just completed and submitted/rejected a task, then the next page that appears is the user's task list, which contains the task that was just completed.
Today, one of our testers managed to reproduce this scenario several times. At one stage, the Tasks link in Tempo showed that there was no tasks (no number shown inside brackets next to the 'Tasks' heading/link), but then a task appeared on that page.

Is there anything that can be done to stop this inconsistency from occurring?
(It seems to be caused by Tempo reading the task list information before it's been updated by the process execution engine.)

The number of Tasks in the Tempo menu bar is only refreshed/recalculated when the page is reloaded, or the User navigates to another page in Tempo, the number of Tasks may not reflect the actual number if the User is still completing a flow within the one page. Is this what the User in your scenario is doing?
