CreateTaskSequence stuck when operator is on break

Hello,

I am building a basic fixed resource and I'm using operators to execute the tasks. When operators are on break, the create task sequence step in the process flow is put on hold, which is what I expected. However, when the operators are back from break, The CreateTaskSequence activity doesn't resume or attempt again to assign the tasks to operators. I tried unchecking the "Dispatch and Wait function" but the token gets stuck in the travel step. Any thoughts on why tokens get stuck?

The problem will be that your delays are independant of the taskexecuter availability and you finish a tasksequence that is not active. When the TE is stopped you really need the delays be paused - you can do this by making all your delays delay Tasks for the operators.

Also - I think you're complicating things by adding resources - just use the dispatchers as the place you create the task sequence and you'll be good ( that change attaced).

That worked! and thanks for the advice, it made my life much easier. I was thinking of acquiring and releasing resources but I think the task sequence activity is doing that by default.
