I have a database field called Status --(Dropdown Options: Analysis, Approver, Complete) When the task is added by the admin then Status field should be defaulted to &quot; Analysis &quot; --&gt;en-USTelligent Community 12https://community.appian.com/thread/78946?ContentTypeID=1Thu, 14 Jan 2021 11:57:25 GMTd3a83456-d57b-489c-a84c-4e8267bb592a:042b0de6-6516-4ff4-9bad-92279e051a51Pedro Sim&#245;es<p>Hi <a href="/members/abhishekw0001">abhishekw0001</a>,</p> <p>Just a recap: you have 2 User Input Tasks in your process model: one for &quot;Analysis&quot; and other for &quot;Approver&quot;.
