Timeout Options

Timeout Options

Use the Timeout options to set a time frame during which the task performers must complete the task instances that the step defines. If a task instance does not complete in the time frame that you specify, the Analyst tool lists the task as overdue. The workflow can reassign overdue tasks to users or groups that you specify in the step.
The following table describes the timeout options of a step:
Property
Description
Duration
The time period for completion of all task instances associated with the step. The time period begins when the Human task creates the task instances. Specify a time period in days, hours, and minutes.
Name
Lists the users or groups who can receive task assignments.
If you expect that more than one task will fail to complete on time, consider adding multiple users or groups to the list.
Reassign Task
Indicates whether a user or group will receive a reassigned task.
If you clear the
Reassign Task
option, the workflow does not reassign overdue tasks to the user or group.
