So I just joined a company not long ago. There are a few flows that close to the start node have a web run (or now a LM transaction node) that seems to do something with a flow workunit number, but I am unsure what exactly it is doing.
The LTM transactions are doing this
_dataArea="" & _module="pfi" & _objectName="PfiWorkunit" & _actionName="Update" & _actionOperator="NONE" & _actionType="CreateUpdateDelete" & _pageSize="30" & PfiWorkunit="" & PfiFilterKey="No Routing" & FilterValue="NA"
I cant tell why these are in the flows or what exactly they are doing to the workunit?
The old way, would use a web run that used /bpm/workUnitBForm.do to do the same type of actions.
Can someone help me understand when and why someone would use these at the beginning of a flow??
Posted By KK on 07/06/2015 10:10 AM Ronnie, As we can see, this call is updating the WorkUnit's category filtering key and values to "No Routing" & "NA" respectively. (assuming you have the dataArea parameter populated on your transaction) Would be difficult to understand that why the developer would use this approach; but right off the bat, I could see something like this for routing to subset of users in say Application Support team.
Thanks KK... I havent seen you around in a long time. You had designed some of the flows for us when I worked at Blount Hospital.
and yes, i am unsure why the data area portion came over blank...it should be -!appProdline- but in the less than greater than brackets. <!--appProdline-->
