Hi ,
I have one program activity A, which is followed by another program activity B.
In Program activity A, I am putting exit as automatic and setting the expiration time as 10 minutes, I wanted to know that if the user does not checkout and checkin the task for program activity A for 10 mins then will the activity A expire and control will move to activity B?
waiting for replys |

That is what should happen, if after 10 Mins Activity A still has not completed, it will be expired.

You need to use the _State built in function for the Transition condition. See the Buildtime doc for details, I am not certain of the syntax.
GOOD LUCK

Hi John,
Thanks for yr quick response,
I wanted to know , by setting which parameter the activity will expire,because in my case
as I have said after setting the Duration of expiration to 10 mins also the activity is not expiring
so is there any another parameter that I have to set, besides this. |

You didnt say that the expiration wasn't occurring. The reason for this most likely that you have NOT STARTED the scheduling server OR that the interval for Schedule server checks is too long (default is one hour). You can start the schedule server from fmcautil, but you cant change the check time. SO, go to buildtime on the Networks tab then open the Domain Settings, now push the Server tab, then open the Server Settings. Now you can do the following:
1. Change the server start to Automatic on the Time values tab.
2. Change the Notification Check interval on the server specifics tab to 10 minutes.
If you set the check interval to 10 minutes your expiration could occur up to 20 minutes after your expected time, to get it closer to 10 minutes you can lower it, but in no case would I make it less than 5 minutes.
Now the final task. Export and import into runtime and then SHUTDOWN
MQWF and restart.
GOOD LUCK
