Description
Steps to reproduce
- Create a sample Process with a TimerStartEvent on a EventSubprocess
- TimerStartEvent uses expression for the timer duration, like ${escalationPeriod}
- Process instance is started with timer expression variable (escalationPeriod = "PT1S") at specific activity
ProcessInstantiationBuilder builder = runtimeService.createProcessInstanceByKey("dyn-timer-sample").setVariable("escalationPeriod", "PT1S"); builder.startBeforeActivity("DO_SOMETHING");
Observed Behaviour
- Process instance starting fails
- The following exception is printed
org.camunda.bpm.engine.ProcessEngineException: Unknown property used in expression: ${escalationPeriod}.

Expected Behaviour
The start event with variable expression should get evaluated, and no exception should be thrown.
Hint
- The test works when using runtimeService.startProcessInstanceByKey().
- The startWithoutExecuting() method calls setVariables() after calling initializeTimerDeclarations() in contrast to the start() method.
