Hi,
I want to perform assignment of users on any given activity dynamically that is the person performing a certain activity will tell that the next activity will be performed by a certain user.
For this purpose I am showing the users from LDAP since I am using MQWF 3.5 and the user performing an activity will select from the list. The selected value is stored in the output data structure and the MQWF activity has got the "People from Container" set to that data structure field. I am using the web client and the value is set properly in the DS but the assignment is not done instead the activity is assigned to ADMIN (Note:Process instance is stared by ADMIN).
Can any one point out whats the problem?
Thanks

Hi,
dynamic staff resolution via container member will only work successfully if the provided UserID is defined in the MQWF runtime DB. If you provide UserIDs from LDAP, you must ensure that these UserIDs are also defined in the runtime DB (e.g. by using the LDAP bridge). |

Thanks for the reply:
The names are valid since I can login using the name/password of the selected users. |

Verify that the data is mapped correctly to the "From Container" memeber name you specified.
Assuming that your users are defined as you say, then maybe the mapping is not there.

| Also, since you are mentioning them as LDAP users, make sure that suffix (cn= or dn= etc) aren't being sent. |

Thanks a lot for your advise everyone. The issue was with the upper case of the USERID basically the name of the user is always in uppercase and his password is in lower case. I was able to find about it while looking at the FDL file generated for the staff.
Its strange that the windows client always enforces the user name to be entered in upper case where as there is no indication when I login from the web client. It seems that the web client performs the case conversion on its on. |

| I donot think it is a case sensitive. generally if u try with Webclient/FatClient it will accept without any case sensitivity. |
