I would like to know how I can add a new workflow task to a currently running workflow. Essentially, my scenario is this:

  • created a custom application page approval form

  • user can add new approvers via the form and press OK

  • new approvers will be notified and assigned new workflow tasks, in addition to the original approver

  • e.g. (approver 1 adds approver 2 and approver 3 .. originally approver 1 will only have the workflow task assigned to him, but after, approvers 2 and 3 will receive a notification regarding the task and they will also be able to access the workflow task).

I am trying to do this programatically but I encounter a "SPEXception" error, which upon research, is because the workflow is already currently running.

Is it possible to do this without restarting the workflow? I just want to add new workflow tasks for the new approvers.

Thanks!

In SharePoint 2010 if you click on the workflow status 'In progress' it takes you to the workflow history page. There you will find 'Add or update assignees of .

You don't have to custome code this OOTB feature.
