Process status based on the task status

anjup over 8 years ago

I have a requirement to get in-flight instances, As part of this, I want to know the process status based on the task status. I aware that, In task report, we can't able to get process status. I believe for 'assigned', 'accepted' task statuses, the process status will be 'Active and for 'completed','skipped' the process status could be 'Completed' and for 'cancelled by exception' , the process status is 'Active with task cancelled by exception'. I wonder what could be the process status for the below task statuses:
Not started-
Cancelled-
Paused-
Unattended-
Aborted-
Submitted-
Running-
Error-

Thanks in Advance

What do you mean by process status based on task status? Is it because you just want to see both? Current process status and then status of all tasks?
If so, can you use a dynamic report that is a process report and gives you status then drill into a line that gives you task details?

We can't define the process status exactly based on one task status as we may have more number of tasks or other nodes in the process.

Actually,I am trying to build a report..where I need only in-flight instances for which one of the criteria is to to get the tasks by process models for which instance shouldn't be completed... so I filtered out the task status 'completed' and 'skipped' which I know that the process instance is completed. My question is like...what are all the task statuses that I need to filter out to get the in-flight instances?

Have you tried just filtering or "running" which should be all the inflight processes?

@sally when I try to filter with the 'running' status,I don't find any tasks of 'running' status.. so I don't find any records in the report.

Could you also check that the processes aren't being archived too soon? If you go to /designer and choose "Processes > Active Processes" do you see any results?
