Default performer for tasks assigned to user groups

A task can be assigned to a Business Process Server group, either with the All option or with the Any option.

For group tasks with All option, if any of the group members is invalid, then the task is assigned to the valid default performer. In this case, the default performer needs to be a single user.

For group tasks with Any option, if all the group members are invalid, then the task is made available to the valid default performer. In this case, the default performer can either be a single user or a group.

If an invalid performer is specified for a task assigned to a group with All option, then the task is assigned to the manager. If the manager is a single user, then the task is assigned to him/her; if it is a group, then the task is assigned to the first valid member of the group.

If an invalid performer is specified for a task assigned to a group with Any option, then the task is made available to the manager. If the manager is a single user, then the task is assigned to him/her; if it is a group, then the task is made available to the group.

If the manager is an invalid user, then the task is suspended.

As described in Table 7, a task is assigned (or made available) to the back-up performer, only if the default performer is invalid. Further:
