Why isn't the task appearing on a
...
user's tasks list?
There are two common reasons for this. The first is that often times workflow designers create a workflow by first creating a form and then dragging that form into the workflow. This is good design practice. However it's also common to name the workflow the same name as the form. It's easy to make the mistake when testing the workflow to click the "test" button on the form rather than on the workflow of the same name. First make sure you're not making this mistakeyou may have both a form and a workflow with the same name. This can happen if you create a standalone form and then create a workflow that includes that form. If you accidentally tested the form instead of the workflow, no task will be created.
Another reason is that your and frevvo and users database were was incorrectly created. If you cannot get any workflow to appear on a task list, revisit the installation instructions and ensure that your and frevvo and users database were was created with UTF8 encoding.

Only tenant/workflow admins or a designer user can move a saved form from one user's task list to another user's task list. Only the teanat tenant admin can searh search for tasks locked by specific users. Imagine Joe in the mortgage processing department is out sick and he has a loan application he began to process and clicked "Save" to finish later. Below are the instructions for the tenant admin to follow to move Joe's saved mortgage application to another person's task list:
- Login Log in to your tenant as the tenant admin
- Click the Home link in the upper right corner of the page (to the left of the LOGOUT link)
- Click the Tasks tab
- Click the iconmagnifying glass icon to Search the task list.
- Select Joe's username from the Locked By User dropdown
- Submit the search form
- View the retrieve retrieved results and click the modify icon on the desired task
- Select a person you want to reassign this task to from the Assign to a different user dropdown
- Enter a reason
- Submit the modify form
The task will now be on the new person's task list.

The tenant admin is the only user that has access to the task list of every other user in your tenant. If there is a task that you cannot find, perhaps it's on the task list of a user who is out of the office (sick day, vacation,...) the admin can find and reassign that task.
- Login Log in to your tenant as the tenant admin
- Click the Home link in the upper right corner of the page (to the left of the LOGOUT link)
- Click the Tasks tab
- Click the search icon
- Select the form you're searching for from the Form/Workflow dropdown
- Select Pending from the Submission Status dropdown
- Click Submit
- View the results and click the modify icon
- Select a person you want to reassign this task to from the Assign to a different user dropdown OR select the Reset to Step
- Enter a reason
- Submit the modify form
The task will now be on the new person's task list or reset to a prior step depending on your selection.
The same steps can be performed by a non-admin user. However, the only forms that a non-admin user will find in the search results are those that this user actively participated in filling the form. A form that was on a user's task list because it was sent to a role this user happens to be a member of, but another user performed the task, will not appear in this user's search results.
...
Tenant and workflow admins or the designer user that created a workflow can abort workflow tasks. Aborting a workflow task removes that task from users' task lists.

Why do tasks still appear in the history search results even after they have been completed or aborted?
...
- Manually reassigned/aborted by the tenant/workflow administrator
- The task was assigned to a role and another user with that role clicked on the task to perform it.
- can frevvo can monitor workflow tasks that must be started or completed within a certain time limit. When the specified time limit is reached, the task may be reassigned to another user. See Escalations.
