Eli,Thank you!! I dynamically update workflow assignments(closed) but activity doesn't automatic. It still wait the assignment vote, it doesn't automatic. Item qry1 = this.newItem("Workflow Process Path","get"); qry1.setAttribute("select","id"); qry1.setProperty("source_id",act.getID()); qry1.setProperty("name","Approve"); Item path = qry1.apply(); Item assignment = this.newItem("Activity Assignment",""); assignment.setAction("get"); assignment.setProperty("source_id", act.getID()); assignment = assignment.apply(); assignment.setAction("edit"); assignment.setProperty("closed_by", "30B991F927274FA3829655F50C99472E"); assignment.setProperty("comments", "System_Auto"); assignment.setProperty("path","Approve"); assignment = assignment.apply(); path.setAction("edit"); path.setProperty("is_default","1"); path = path.apply();

You could add an activity before activity(a) that is automatic with method hooked onActivate. From that method, query for activity(a) and check its assignments. If it does not have one, then set the automatic boolean of activity(a) to true. Dennis
