tks for the reply, basically the following events will take place. As you can see the reciever is three different people

START
1. Owner creates main task including # of subtasks
2. Owner assigns Subtask1 to user1
3. System notifies user1 of their task
4. Owner assigns Subtask2  to user2
5. System notifies user2 of their task
6. User1 completes task
7. System notifies Owner, Authoriser & user1 of task1 completion
8. User2 completes task
9. System notifies Owner and Authoriser of task2 completion
10. System checks if all subtasks completed
11. If so, system notifies Owner
12. Owner makes overall task as completed
13. System notifies Authoriser
END

Uml Process / Usage of Use cases

Hi All
wonder can u help. I'm just starting out on the UML pathway so bear with me. I have to design a component that will notify different actors (User, Authoriser, Owner) of certain tasks as to the status of the task at different stages in the lifestyle of the task. Do I create a new Use Case for every notification i.e. NotifyUser, NotifyOwner etc or can I use the same one in every instance. How would the 'extend' be of use here
Tks
