Layouts in task management

Within the task management system, you can now work with layouts, similar to d.velop documents. To do this, enable the layoutfunction in the Adjust view menu.

After enabling this feature, the default layout will be initially offered and applied. You can save your current column arrangement as your own configuration by selecting Save view as layout. Selected layouts are saved for each task basket. For example, you can use different layouts for your group baskets.

Additional features in the table view

Under Adjust view, you will now also find the following features that you are already familiar with from d.velop documents:

• Customize columns: Configure the columns to be displayed and perform groupings.

• Optimize column width by content: Change the width of the columns in the table view depending on their content.

• Optimize column width by content and heading: Change the width of the columns in the table view depending on their content and the heading of the respective column.

These features are also available if you have not enabled the Layouts feature.

Reset the current view

With Reset current view, you can restore the default column layout. This option used to be in the gear menu, but has now also been moved to the Adjust view menu. In this menu, you will now find all table configurations in one place.

Changing and deleting tasks

Deleting tasks

Within task management, you can now delete tasks that have been created in the user interface. The following two options are available:

Deleting a task by the task creator

If you access the tasks you have created yourself via My activities > My created tasks, you can now delete these tasks. Open the task and click on Delete.

You can only delete tasks that you have created yourself. Tasks that have been created via a process or via the API cannot be deleted.

Deleting a task using the Administration role

People in the Administration role can now delete tasks by viewing another user's mailbox. Before deleting, make sure that deleting the tasks will not cause problems in related business processes, etc.

Changing tasks your own tasks

If you access the tasks you have created yourself via My activities > My created tasks, you can now change the tasks retrospectively. Open the task and click on Edit.

You can customize the task data in the sidebar. Click Apply to save your changes. However, you cannot change the person who received the tasks this way. Any changes made to a task will be noted in the history of that task.

Runtime contexts for actions within processes

When running an action in d.velop process studio, there are actions that must be executed explicitly on behalf of user accounts. Reasons for this may include explicit permissions that the technical login of the executing app does not have. For this reason, when using an action, you can now specify whether the action is executed as before via the default user account (login of the respective app) or via an explicit user account.

Select Custom user account and choose either an explicit user account or an identity process variable to be used for executing the action.

Extension of the process log

The process log has been expanded so that a call to action performed with a specified user context is now explicitly noted in the process log.

Access to the person who completed a task

A new internal process variable dv_completion_user of type Identity is available for process modeling. This process variable contains the user account that completed the previous user step. You can use this variable in a subsequent action, for example. You cannot change the variable dv_completion_user; you can only use it in read mode.

Full screen mode for d.velop process studio

Using the button at the top right, you can now open d.velop process studio in full-screen mode in your browser.

In full-screen mode, the focus is placed on the main area of the app (such as the script editor).

You can exit full-screen mode using the button at the top right, the Esc key, or the close button in the browser's full-screen mode.
