Sets the next task in a workflow from the task list.
This tool is designed to be run as a step in a Workflow Manager (Classic) workflow. Running this tool outside of Workflow Manager (Classic) does not honor all Workflow Manager (Classic) constraints such as job assignment, dependencies, or holds and may cause a job to enter an unusable state.
This tool is intended for use with the Topographic Mapping production workflows and will not support an improperly configured Workflow Manager (Classic) repository. Sample workflows and instructions for configuring Topographic Mapping production workflows are available as part of the product file installer.
It is recommended that current Workflow Manager (Classic) users begin new projects using the services-driven version of ArcGIS Workflow Manager for ArcGIS Pro.
A task is a small, focused unit of work that can be executed by an individual. Task groups are composed of multiple tasks that, when executed in sequence, complete a type of work. For example, a task group to perform data extraction can be composed of tasks to collect data, validate the data, and publish the data. Task groups and their associated tasks are defined by your Workflow Manager (Classic) administrator as part of configuring the Topographic Mapping workflows.
When run through Workflow Manager (Classic), a parent job is created for a task group to define the type of work that needs to be completed over a specific area of interest. When a task is ready to be executed, a job is created for the task and is linked to the task group job as a child.
The Set Task List tool must be run before this tool to ensure that the appropriate tasks are associated with the job. Based on the list of tasks associated with the job, this tool determines the next task to be executed.
This tool uses the order and status of the tasks associated with the job to determine the next task. If a task is found, the current task extended property will be set with the ID of the task with the lowest task order that is in Waiting status. If all tasks have been completed and none remain in the task list, the current task will be set to 0.
