Implementing the human tasks

Human tasks are activities in the business process that people must perform, such as contacting a customer after an application is declined or when the loan amount is very large.

You will use human tasks in the loan application to confirm the approval or declination of each loan request that is entered into the business process.

These tasks show you how to implement human tasks in the assembly diagram:

Implementing the FollowUpDeclinedApplication human task

This human task receives a HumanTaskBO that includes an application and instructions from the process when a loan request is declined. The bank employee that receives this task will then follow up with that particular loan.

To implement the FollowUpDeclinedApplication human task, follow these steps:
  1. Switch to the assembly editor.
  2. Right-click the FollowUpDeclinedApp component.
  3. From the pop-up menu, select Generate Implementation. The Generate Implementation window opens.
  4. In the navigation tree, click LoanApplicationModule and then OK. The Human Task Component Handler window opens.
  5. Retain FollowUpDeclinedApp in the Enter a name for the Human Task field.
  6. Click OK. The human task editor opens.
    FollowUpDeclinedApp
  7. Close the human task editor and in the assembly editor click File > Save.

Implementing the ProcessTheApplication and CompleteTheLoan human tasks

Implement the remaining two human tasks.
  1. Following the steps you used to create the FollowUpDecinedApplication human task, define these human tasks:
    Component Human Task Name Purpose
    ProcessTheApplication ProcessTheApplication ProcessTheApplication This human task follows a loan request that must be manually approved by a bank employee.
    CompleteTheLoan CompleteTheLoan CompleteTheLoan This human task follows the automatic approval of a loan request, and must be completed by a bank employee.
  2. Switch to the assembly editor and click File > Save.
Now that you have implemented the human tasks, the loan application is ready to be run and tested.
