Hello, I have an issue that is best ask if simplified. Let's say I want to setup a reminder if a task isn't being completed after a certain period of time. It works if I interrupt the User Task, Send an email reminder, and transition back to the User Task. However, it creates a lot of junk history and I don't like how it actually interrupts the User Task.

I tried setting up the "Do not interrupt the attached Activity" with a repeat setting, but the User Task terminates after my Timer Event tasks are complete. Any ideas?

Hi Charlie, the path from the timer should have an end event.

Think of it as a subroutine, when the timer triggers, do this and then return to the task as you don’t have the end task on your timer path, it doesn’t know that process is done to return to the task

Steve seems to be correct. Once the emails are sent, the process is terminating because it has nowhere to go. If you put end events after both email branches, the user task should remain in progress.
