Error executing Agent Assignment

[Tisch, Bradley]

Mike,
 
The second step in the workflow is defined as a dialog, this is the approval
step. My approach for determining selected agents for this step is to Select
and specify a Rule on the Activity Control Tab - Agents field, for the
approval task. I was thinking that I wouldn't have to build another step for
agent determination, but maybe I do.

Hi,
Your agent determination method is defined as dialog. Make sure it is a
background task and it will be executed by WF-BATCH.
Cheers
