Replacing deprecated widgets with the Tasks widget

Configure the Tasks widget in your Process Portal space so that you can use it in place of the My Tasks, Available Tasks, and Tasks I Created widgets.

Perform the following steps for all pages in your Process Portal spaces that have deprecated widgets.


Procedure

  1. Check and capture in the Widget Wiring Editor any wiring from and to the deprecated widget.
  2. Check and capture your specific configuration options for the deprecated widget.
  3. Delete the widget from the Business Space page.

  4. Add the Tasks widget to the page at the same position.

  5. Configure Tasks to match the configuration of the deprecated widget. Make sure you select those properties that you want to filter for or sort by.

  6. Configure the user interaction to match the deprecated widget as follows:

    • Select "Work on tasks" to replace the My Tasks widget

    • Select "Assess available tasks" to replace the Available Tasks widget

    • Select "Check status of tasks" to replace the Tasks I Created widget

  7. Add explicit wires to match the previous wiring.

  8. Optionally, add explicit wires to refresh the list to reflect the task state caused by user interaction in the Task Information widget.

  9. Add explicit wires to match the previous wiring for one of the following incoming events of the deprecated widget to the com.ibm.widget.Refresh event of the Tasks widget:

    • com.ibm.task.TaskCreated
    • com.ibm.task.TaskActivated
    • com.ibm.task.TaskClaimed
    • com.ibm.task.TaskReleased
    • com.ibm.task.TaskCompleted
    • com.ibm.task.TaskDelegated
    • com.ibm.task.TaskTerminated
    • com.ibm.task.TaskDeleted

  10. Optionally add explicit wires to highlight the task in the list that is focused in the Task Information widget or the Process Information widget as follows:

    • From the com.ibm.widget.TabChanged event of the Task Information widget add a wire to the com.ibm.widget.Highlight event of the Tasks widget.

    • From the com.ibm.widget.FocusChanged event of the Process Information widget add a wire to the com.ibm.widget.Highlight event of the Tasks widget.
