# Tasks Assignation Policy

Each **Bpm Process Definition** can have its own **task assignation policy**. This policy is applied to **all Bpm Process Instances** of the **Bpm Process Definition**.

The task assignation policy can be **automatic** or **not**:

* If it is **automatic** each time a task is created is assigned immediately.
* If it is **not automatic** then a **backoffice** user has to **enforce** the assignation using the **backoffice application**.

The available assignation policies are:

* BpmNoneAssignationPolicy (this is the **default** policy)
* BpmFairAssignationPolicy
* BpmRoundRobinRoleAssignationPolicy
* BpmRoundRobinTaskAssignationPolicy

**BpmNoneAssignationPolicy**

This is **default** assignation policy to all Bpm processes. It does **nothing** and each user has to **peek up** the tasks from the general bag.

**BpmFairAssignationPolicy**

This policy check the number of tasks of each user including tasks of **other processes** and assign task to the user who has less assigned tasks.

The **Fair poilicy** is **global** because check **all** tasks of each user including tasks of other processes.

**BpmRoundRobinRoleAssignationPolicy**

This policy check the number of tasks for the given role (of the given task) and assign the task to the user how has less assigned tasks for the role.

The **round robin role policy** is local because the count of tasks is done for a particular **Bpm Process Definition**.

**BpmRoundRobinTaskAssignationPolicy**

This policy check the number of a given task and assign the task to the user how has less assigned tasks of this type.

The **round robin task policy** is local because the count of tasks is done for a particular **Bpm Process Definition**.
