Sub Process - Issue When Target Variable Name Doesn't Match Origin Variable Name For Task Assignment

I noticed that in the Parent Process, if I set the subprocess task to have...
Origin Variable=@@SubSection_IV_VR_SecondaryApprover
Target Variable=@@SubSection_IV_VR_SecondaryApprover
and then in the subprocess, have the first task assigned to @@SubSection_IV_VR_SecondaryApprover,
then then the subcase gets created and assigned just fine.

However, when I do this..
Origin Variable=@@SubSection_IV_VR_SecondaryApprover
Target Variable=@@SecondaryApprover
and then in the subprocess, have the first task assigned to @@SecondaryApprover,
the subcase never gets assign properly and the parent case gets stuck in the parent process at the last task right before the Subprocess.

Any idea anybody?

I see the same problem in version 3.3.10 Community. What version are you using? Something changed, because older versions allowed you to change the variable name.

Please file a bug report about this and post a link to your bug report here.

For now you will have to use the same variable names.

Amos,
I tried reporting it through the public bug tracker at http://bugs.processmaker.com but it looks like the support page is now changed to https://support.processmaker.com and it doesn't seem to let me create an account directly. Especially if I'm not an enterprise customer.

Oh, I didn't know about that change!

In ProcessMaker 4, bug tracking will be done in Github, but now there is no public bug tracker for PM 3. I will have to ask what is the plan for PM 3 on Monday. I'll get back to you.
