Our Sample process contains one Human task and timer job.

we would like to reopen the completed task again with all variables associated with it. is it possible in flowable to reopen task which in completed state ?

Assume entire process completed state.

One option would be to look into process instance migration. However, this doesn’t work for process instances that are completed.

The alternative would be to create a new instance, set all variables and migrate it to the user task you need it to be.
