Using static staff assignment uses less system resources than dynamic staff assignments.
You can use custom properties and process variables, which are also known as %-variables, to achieve dynamic behavior from a human task in your process. This function enables you to delay the decision about the group of assigned people from modelling time to runtime.
However, when you assign staff dynamically, the best results must be compute for each instance. This approach is expensive of resources.
When you use static staff assignments (when you set the potential owner to group MyGroup at modelling time, for example), the results of this staff query are cached. They can then be reuse by other instances of the process.
Use static staff assignments, in preference to dynamic staff assignments, whenever possible, to achieve the best performance.
