Not sure how this bug made it into the 2017 release, but it was fixed some time ago. It'll be available in the next bug fix release.

In the meantime, there are two work-arounds. You can go into the code editor and return the state number:

/**Custom Code*/
Object current = param(1);
treenode activity = param(2);
Token token = param(3);
Object executer = param(4); //Or Task Sequence
treenode processFlow = ownerobject(activity);
return 3; //Busy State

Or you can go into the tree and find the activity and change the variable var2 to the state number.

This bug isn't fixed in 17.0.1.

Seems to be fine to me:

Can you elaborate with replication steps to show what isn't working?

Ok, it works. My problem was that I saved modules when I was using the 17.0.0 then I installed the 17.0.1 but the .fsx of the Process Flow was still there. Therefore the old module was loaded.

Thanks.
