In case you have the permission to modify activity instances, you can change the priorities for activity instances in activity tables. Please refer to section Authorization for Activities of the chapter Authorization in the Stardust Online Documentation - Developer Modeling Guide Authorization for Activities of the chapter Authorization in the Developer Guide for detailed information on setting security permission for modifying activity instances. For details on working with activity tables, refer to chapter Working with Activity Tables.
In case you have the permission to modify, the entries for the priorities provide a drop-down list with the predefined priorities High, Normal and Low. To modify the priority, click the arrow on the right side of the priority and select one of the provided priorities.
Figure: Set the Priority of an Activity Instance.
To save the changed priorities, select the Save Priority Changes icon above the activities table, as shown in the following screenshot:
Figure: Save Priority Settings.
You get a confirmation dialog notifying you about the successfully performed priority changes, listing all concerned activity instances with their changed priority status.
Figure: Save Priority Confirmation Dialog
In case priority changes fail for some reason, this will be notified in this dialog as well.
It is also possible to select more than one activity, the actions invoked in the toolbar will then be applied to all activities.
Per default, priority changes of a process instance are not propagated to its subprocesses. You can change that behavior in the Configuration Panel, as described in section Modifying Priority Change Behavior of chapter Configuring Workflow Execution.
