Dear all,
In my model I have many different tasks which require a ressource. I acquire the ressource with processflow. Many tasks can be done with all available ressources, thats why I created a Group for the Ressources. But there is one specific task which only a specific ressource can do. How do I specify this in the Acquire Ressource building block.
I hope the picture explains it a bit better.
Thank you in advance.

Specifying rules by which to acquire a resource is done through the Query/Object/Array field.
As the name suggests you can enter an object reference here, meaning only that specific object can be pulled. Or an array of objects, so there are multiple options of what to acquire.
The final, and most powerful option, is to use an SQL query with WHERE and ORDER BY clauses to refine which object is acquired.
See this recent post for an example where a query is used to constrain which objects can be acquired.
