Create actor filters

Hi,

I have the following issue: Im implementing the Bonita in my Company, and i need to know how to send a request to a specific member of a department. For example: Martha, from Sales, needs to send a request to Max, from Development, not to all Development's empoyees, but only to Max. I need to do this by an actor filter, but i don't know how to implement it. 

Any suggestion/Help/Example?

Thanks!

Hi,

you can eventually use the existing single user filter (http://documentation.bonitasoft.com/actor-filtering).

A good question would be, how do you know that Martha is connected to Max ? Is it something dependent on your process (such as, Max has been quoted as the developer in charge), or is it something related to your organization (i.e. Martha always relate to Max for development issue, whatever the project) ?

In the first case, you should be able to retrieve the developer's id from the process variable, or from an external data source. In the second case you may rely on your organization structure (group, role, etc...).

You can eventually find some example (and related source code) of filter on the official bonitasoft github: https://github.com/bonitasoft/bonita-userfilters/tree/master/bonita-userfilter-single-user

Thanks for the answer Renaud, but I need a Step by Step tutorial teaching how to implement an actor filter, or some examples that teaches how to implement a filter, because i'm new in BPMS stuff.

I found some documentation, and I also checked the links you posted, but i found no step by step tutorial.

cheers,
