      Scenario:

      • Deploy the attached process
        • Process with a TimerStartEvent on a EventSubprocess
        • TimerStartEvent uses an expression for the timer duration, like ${duration}
      • Start a process instance and pass duration="PT1M" variable in Cockpit

      Observed behavior:
      An exception is thrown:

      Expected behavior:
      A process instance is started successfully.

      Hints:
      We already fixed similar scenarios in CAM-9303.

      The difference here is that the process instance is started by Submitting a Form (SubmitStartFormCmd).
      CAM-9303 was more or less an easy-pick but it does seem the case here as the variables are set at different point (DefaultFormHandler#submitFormVariables()) than the initialization of the timer declarations (ExecutionEntity#startWithFormProperties())

        This is the controller panel for Smart Panels app
