Step 6. Configure input fields and output fields

On the

Fields

tab of the human task asset, you can specify all the input field and output field properties such as the field name, field type, field description, and default values. You can also specify whether the configured fields are required.

Configure the input fields to display information that the task owners will need to act on a human task. Configure the output fields that the task owners can use to provide information about the human task.

For example, instead of creating separate fields for name, address, phone number, and so on, you can create one process object with different fields that contain demographic data.
