Dear Sir/Mdm,

I have a form with date widget. I want to know when the user set a date in the widget, he/she can trigger the next task to user on the date he/she select? Can it be done?

Hello Terry, You can save this date in a variable and put an intermediate timer event that will use it as a value for "Fixed date". That will the time will go off on the given date and allow to move on to the next task. Does that help? Cheers, Haris

Could you explain what happened (what did "not work"), please? I tried it and it works fine. Please, make sure to use date and time in your date widget, so that you can also precise time when testing (by default it will be 00:00, if not).

Sorry, it works now. Can i also ask if i can set in the following way:

User select a date in the date widget for eg "25/09/2014", can i set in the intermediate timer in such a way that it will move onto the next task 14 days from the selected date of 25/09/2014?

Ok, great to hear that it works. In that case, you can use a script and put something like date_of_events+14

Hi haris,subasic,

How do i change the 'due date' in Bonitasoft portal? Its always say due date: 18 mins whenever i assign a new task to user.

It is not related to your original question, but - Due date in the Portal is related to the task's Estimated duration that is configured on the Portal tab of the selected task in the Studio.
