Action Macro to set WF Task Group

[Jeffery Mason]

How do I write an Action Macro to set a WF Task group field to "GROUP1"

The macro will be attached to a custom status on the previous task. 

 

This is needed to manually control the group assinee of the next task sequence.
Since location based auto-assignment does not work for WF Tasks, we need a way to assign the next task in the sequence to a specific group. It's ugly, but one of 15 possible groups will be assigned the next task

What SPEL code is required in the action macro to set the task group = Group1

We will duplicate this macro 15 times and attach it to 15 statuses

Are you looking for something like Auto Assigns Workflow Tasks by location

Thanks Paul.  I saw this post before but wasn't sure if it was the right solution. I would still like a Set Group = x macro but I'll try this example as well. When I saw it, it wasn't clear how to implement, other than attaching it to the Pending status of the auto-assigned task and adding the group. Do I still add all of the potential group assignee's to the task auto-assign tab?  Do I need multiple copies of this macro - one for each group, on the same pending task?

 

Thanks
