Assuming that the user decision is not related to the outcome of a previous
dialog task (and does not have advance with dialog ticked on) are your
substitute users active ? In HRUS_D2 if the Active box is not
ticked, then workflow will not route a task to a substitute. It’s
up to the substitute to reach in and grab the workitem from the person whose
work they are doing. Who is the task being delivered to ?<br>
