  • 1.  Reference CR from cr_wf to Create Transition Condition

    Posted Jun 29, 2018 11:12 AM

    How do I reference the Change field in a CR for use in cr_wf? I need to make a site-defined condition? I need the cr.change (if correct) object in the cr_wf like the Request/Incident/Problem's Assignee (cr.assignee) (the field I am referring to is the Change field that is populated when a user selects "Create Change Order" in the CR)?

     

    There are similar examples in my environment where a wf is referencing objects from the overall chg:

     

    Object Type: Change Order Workflow Task

    Description: Tests to see if the related Change Order is in "Approval in progress" status and the Risk survey completed.

    Code: if (( !is_null(getval_by_name("chg.status")) && getval_by_name("chg.status") == "APP" ) && ( !is_null(getval_by_name("chg.risk")) ))
    set_return_data(TRUE);
    else
    set_return_data(FALSE);

    Jessie, you would need to create a new activity association with cr.change as object type attribute and then use this newly create activity association to create a site-defined condition for the cr/in/pr workflow task. Thanks _Chi

    Hello Jessie,

     

    you may want to go through the activity association documentation for further information i.e.

    Hope this helps in creation new activity association for the required object.
