background and foreground steps in a workflow

[Patrice Nolin]

Hi,
 
We have a workflow that can be called from an event create from a batch job
(FPVA in ISU) or another workflow. The first 3 steps of the workflow are to
instantiate objects base on parameters' value.
 
A: batch --> create event --> workflow 1 --> step1 step2 step3 item1
 
B: workflow 2 --> ... --> item 5 --> workflow 1 --> step1 step2 step3 item1
 
Step1..3 : instantiation of objects
Item5 : workitem send to an agent (in workflow 2)
Item1 : workitem send to an agent (in workflow 1)
 
 
The problem is that if we have background tasks (step1..3), in case A it's
working fine, but in case B, the sequence of dialog is cut. If we have
foreground no dialog tasks (step1..3), in case B it's working fine, but in
case A, what we see in the workitems list (SBWP) is step1.
 
Dows some know how to fix that?
 
Thanks
