How hard is it to build a custom inbasket exec to display a couple of pieces of data that have already been read into variables and, then allow the user to enter a single piece of data directly into a field on the inbasket exec, click approve (or whatever action name), and then have the entered piece of data available as a work unit variable for further processing downstream in the flow?

That isn't hard at all. You can use HTML or Design Studio to create your simple page with your input field and then call a URL to add your new data element as a variable (or to update the variable if it already exists) using /bpm/xml/workUnitVariablesForm.do

David,

Would you have a small example using the Design Studio method you described. This sounds like the solution I need.

Email me at david.williams@avaap.com and I'll send you my script. I actually use it in invoice approvals (non-standard, since we trigger PF before the invoice is released to allow users to make changes).
