Forms: Auto Task

If triggered, an Automatic Transition creates an Auto Task. These tasks are mainly for purposes of notification (that the transition fired) only - but they are useful to record errors that occur when the transition is tiggered.

Form: Auto Task Details

The following fields are configured on the main form:

Field	Description
Task Id	Read only: the Id assigned to the workflow task.
Alarm Id	Read only: the Alarm Id that generated the workflow task.
Alarm Generator	Read only: the Alarm Generator that generated the Alarm that generated the workflow task.
Created Date	Read only: the date the workflow task was created.
Last Updated	Read only: the date on which any of the workflow task details were last updated.
Completed	Read only: the date on which the workflow task was completed (null if not completed).
Workflow	Read only: The Workflow model this task belongs to.
Transition	Read only: the transition that generated the workflow task.

Form Icons

The form provides the standard form icons as well as the following:

	Resume workflow. This can be used if an error has occurred when raising this task, the underlying cause of the error has been resolved - and processing the workflow can be re-started.
	Shows the Alarm Generator details that generated the workflow task alarm.
	Shows the details of the alarm that generated the workflow task.
