Tasks are not showing up in any actor's list (either To Do, My Tasks or Available)
I think there is a bug here???
I have a workflow that works fine until I manually assign a task to a actor. Once a task is manually assigned it shows up on that actors list - correct behavior. The issue is that when that actor completes the task that they were assigned any tasks after that task no longer shows up on any actors lists on any remaining tasks.
For every task after the manually assigned task I have to go in as administrator and manually assign tasks to actors. THe tasks never show up on To Do, My Tasks or Available Tasks if I don't. This happens even though the task has a group as an actor and there are multiple people in that group.
I have checked logs and there are no errors in the logs after the task is completed.
Is there a fix for this? It makes using Bonita a major PITA.
Using Bonita 6.2.5

Could you explain how do you assign these remaining tasks - by using a lane with the same actor for all the tasks? Are you using any filters? Was the user to which you manuall assign the task part of the list of candidates by default?
I do not use lanes for assigning actors, too messy. I am assigning actors by assigning roles to the task and assigning actors in those roles.
I am not using filters.
Yes, the user that I assigned the task to was a part of the candidates by default...that is to say the user is assigned to the role that is assigned to the actor in the task.
I just tested the following: a process with three tasks, no lanes. There is one actor, that has a role mapped to it, and it is assigned to all three tasks. As the administrator, I assign the first task to one user (part of that role, as well). Once this user completes this task, remaining tasks are visible by all the user that are meant to see it - members of the role mapped to the actor. Do you have the same case? Sorry, but I might be missing something... Maybe you can share your process with us, to have a look
I can't post the process directly. Can I send it to you some other way?
The simplest is to drop it on a free online website and share the link
When you view the "bad" task's details using an administrator role, does it show up as allocated to anyone?
And/or view the task details using the SOAP API url ...

What shows up in the "assigned_id" of the tasks?
