Hi Flávio,

Thanks a lot for all the help and specially the screenshots which made the

Saurabh:

Do not do any binding to the User Decision.

You do a binding from the step that you are calculating the agents to the
workflow container.

Then, on the User Decision step, on the first tab (Decision), you have the
Agents part. There you define who will execute the decision. Choose the
option 'Expression' and put your container element as the expression that
will have the agents.

Check out at the attached file.

Best Regards,
Flávio.
