Conductor Script Commands
The user_name1 and other_info1 arguments must be supplied if required by the
consultation assignment rule. For example, if a consultation rule named
"ManagerOf" looks for the manager of the user who is handing off to a consultant,
then this user's user name and other info (in this case the manager's name) would
be passed to the ManagerOf assignment rule. This behavior is similar in function to
the linked activity mechanism described in the iIS Process Development Guide.
Once the consulted user has completed work on the activity, the activity is offered
back according to the assignment rule specified by return_rule. The user_name2
and other_info2 arguments must be supplied if required by the return_rule. For
example, if a return_rule assignment rule named "SameAs" looks for the original
user who passed off the activity to a consultant, then that original user's name
would be passed to the return_rule assignment rule.
Once the user to whom the activity is returned has completed (or aborted) the
activity, process execution continues as specified in the process definition.
