Is it possible that the Automatic activity, could check immediately upon getting control and issue the Suspend?
This does have holes, but it might work for you. _________________ John McDonald

Sorry Jmac....
I am not getting what you are saying........
what I want is, to lock manual activity and allow other parallel automatic activity to run (should not affected because of this locking).....Offcourse when I say parallel activity should run, it is implied that it should run upto the point where parallel processing ends......actually that's the way WorkFlow works for parallel processing.... |

Amit:
What I am saying is: IF you have the Automatic activity issue the suspend as soon as it runs, that would prevent most (could not guarantee 100%) of the parallel Manual Activities from running but since the automatic activity is already executing, it would complete.
Is there some reason that this has to be Parallel? Why not make the Manual activity happan after the Automatic Activity?
I must admit I really dont understand your design. _________________ John McDonald

Jmac...
That's my requirement ...If certain condition is met then these parallel activities should start....In this parallel processing subsequent to Manual act A as well as auto act B, there are some more activities.....That's my problem........
when I lock activity A (I mean to say stop Activity A as well as all the subsequent activities after A ) , if at the same time if parallel proessing (from auto act B) is started, then it should proceed upto the point where parallel processing completes.....
AT the same time I want to remain in the boundaries of already designed process..... |

Amit:
It sounds to me like the solution is to have an activity prior to the Parallel path that checks to see whether the delay (locking) is necessary. If it is it can put an indicator into the container that the Manual activity checks upon start, and will somehow inform the user that this activity is not currently "runnable". This is pretty Klunky, but I'm sure it could be refined based on your existing process.
GOOD LUCK _________________ John McDonald

u do not check out the work item completely....so it is in running state....not in ready state....I think that will is similiar to suspend.... |

Jet,
Please explain "u do not check out the work item completely." I am not getting what you want to say... |
