You can create a Task Deadline variable and use it as the value
of the Deadline property of Assign Task and Assign Multiple Tasks
operations. The operations use this property to calculate the date
when the deadline occurs.
Create a Task Deadline variable only if you intend
to use the value multiple times in the process. Otherwise, configure
the Deadline property manually.
For information about data that can be accessed using Xpath Expressions,
see Data items.
Task Deadline values contain the following
data items.
dateObj
A Task Date value that represents the amount of time that
passes after the task is assigned before the deadline occurs.
changeInstructions
A boolean value
that indicates whether the task instructions should be changed when
the deadline occurs. A value of true indicates
the instructions are changed, and false indicates
they are not changed.
dateObj
A Task Date value that determines the amount of time after
the task is created when the deadline occurs.
deadlineInstructions
A string value
that contains the new task instructions to apply when the deadline
occurs. This value is used only if the value of the changeInstructions property
is true.
followRouteOnDeadline
A boolean value
that can enable following a specific route from the Assign Task operation
when the deadline occurs.
selected
A boolean value
that determines whether a deadline is enabled or disabled.
selectedRoute
A string value
that represents the name of the route to follow after the Assign Task
or Assign Multiple Tasks operation. LiveCycle Server sets this value
when the user submits their task.
Datatype specific settings
Properties for configuring the default values of Task Deadline properties. You
configure these properties in the same way that you configure the
Deadline property of Assign Task operations. (See Deadline properties.)
