Defining the Task of an Automatic Activity

You must define the logic of an Automatic activity in the main task.

Automatic activities have only one main task associated to them.

The task of an Automatic activity can have the following implementation types:

Method
Component
Procedure

The components accessed from Automatic activities should not require human involvement. If the component needs input from an end user then you should use an Interactive activity.

You may invoke the display method in the PBL-Method of an Automatic activity for debugging. When you invoke the display method from within an Automatic activity the Process Execution Engine writes the message to the Engine log.
