When you create Integration Types, you choose one of the following task type:
End-User task—Tasks that users must perform and validate. The task may be a generic task such as submitting data, or it may require product integration to facilitate or validate its completion.
System-Automated task—Tasks automatically executed in external applications when their start date and time are reached, and their predecessor tasks are completed, for example, an overnight feed from a General Ledger. System-Automated tasks are often executed after working hours. They require limited, if any, user interaction, and do not have assignees.
Event Monitoring Integration task—Tasks based on events that occur in external applications; for example, Journal Approve.
When you create a task, the type you choose affects the runtime behavior of the task:
System-Automated, the task runs according to the task parameters that you define.
End-User, when you click the Go to Task icon, the system uses the execution URL and parameters.
Event Monitoring, the task waits for an event with a matching parameter value and then closes.
