Long lasting proces

Hi, we have a business case where processes takes years to be executed from start to end. Second task in process can be executed months or years after first, and so on.
Problem is migration from existing sistem. Is it possible in flowable, to start or somehow create still running processes started in the past, where some of the activities where executed in the past?

Regards…

Hi Kajetan,

The simple answer is yes. There is a support for that in the runtime service.
runtimeService.createProcessInstanceMigrationBuilder()
and there are also plenty of tests e.g.:

github.com

flowable/flowable-engine/blob/d05e91fee90098973a117a45c438c2ee60baaa9e/modules/flowable-engine/src/test/java/org/flowable/engine/test/db/ProcessInstanceMigrationTest.java
