4.2. ProcessRuntimeService

It is designed to work with process instances. The service methods allow you to:

  • start a process

  • cancel a process

  • complete a task

  • assign a task to the user

When a process is started, the following process variables are created automatically:

  • bpmProcInstanceId - ProcInstance object ID

  • entityName - linked entity name

  • entityId - linked entity ID

To access the service functionality on middleware, use the ProcessRuntimeManager bean.
