<DIV><SPAN class=848515923-05122001><FONT face=Arial size=2>Thanks for the
response. After some research maybe I can give you some more
info. The step is dialog work items to positions using a custom
role resolution. The custom role resolution is using the agent workflow
container which was created (and completed in a prior step) and it doesn't
contain the 2 missing positions. So I can see the current work items
waiting to be processed but I don't see an "upper-level" work item for these
in which I can change the agents and dynamically create 2 new work items to
the 2 positions originally excluded (changing the agents for the current work
items won't do me any good since a work item is sent to each position).
Any other suggestions? Hopefully I haven't been too
confusing...</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<P><FONT face=Arial size=2>We have an org unit under which 2 new positions
were added with 1 holder each on 10/19/2001. All positions are
created by referencing a job, and we attach our customer tasks at the job
level. The work items were sent to each org unit position (including
these 2 new positions) on 11/30/2001. Unfortunately, a mistake was
made and the customer task was not assigned to the jobs which describe
these 2 new positions until 12/3/2001. So there are no work items
for the users under these 2 new positions. A previous step populated
the workflow container with the positions of the org unit, and when I look
at this current step the workflow container has all of the org unit
positions except for these 2 new positions. Is there any way to
dynamically change a workflow container in process by adding these 2 new
positions, or is one of those instances the users are just going to have
to live with the error? BTW, we're on 4.0B.</FONT></P>
