  • 1.  Pass Value of A1 to A2 - Clarity Process/Workflow Limitation or GEL Opportunity?

    Posted Dec 02, 2014 12:44 PM

    Objective

    Update the value of out of the box attributes, A2 - Planned Operating Cost [planned_cst_operating_total]

    with the result of custom calculated attribute, A1 - Total Operating Request [cdhs_tot_operrq]

     

    Clarity Workflow Limitation

    Object: thisProject

    Auto-start Event: Update

    Start Condition Expression: project.cdhs_total_projc != project.cdhs_total_projc__oldValue

    Evaluated Expression: Project Total Project Costs != Project Total Project Costs [Previous Value]

    Start Step Action: System Action

    Action: Set Planned Operating Cost

    Issue: Clarity workflow only allows entry for a static number, not a lookup reference to another attribute on set object. I would have bet on a second lookup, but expectations fell short.

     

    Am I missing something?  I wanted to open a CA Support enhancement ticket, but I trust that I am not the first to find a dead end here.

     

    Do I need to put on my GEL hat to update the value of A2 from A1?

    "Do I need to put on my GEL hat to update the value of A2 from A1?" - Yes, think so
