    I am trying to get a design studio inbasket working for our 9.0 upgrade. I have narrowed it down to needing to get the position level on the workunit variable list. The problem is so far the only way I know how to do this is going and manually adding it.

    So My question is how are the workunit variables created and how can I ad one either by setup change or with processflow.

      You can add your needed/required variables within the actual flow themselves, i.e. using the PF designer tool.

        In 9.0 ProcessFlow, you will need Webrun node to push Web calls to the BPM Menu.do forms to Add/ Change WorkUnit variables.

          Where do those forms live I am looking in the API builder and am not finding anything.

           

          Right before The lawson support person told me this was not within thier scope of support he said something about the workunit variables being in a view so he wasn't sure it was possible.

          I would love to prove him wrong.

            1) Create a webrun node in process flow
            2) Use the following in your Web Program: bpm/xml/workUnitVariablesForm.do
            3) Put your action in the Post String section. I used the following to add a new variable to an existing workunit: method=Add&workUnit=7774&variableName=Name&sequenceNumber=0&variableValue=Shawn

              Using a sequence number of 0 will work if only adding one variable. The delivered triggers start with seq number 1. Technically though you should first query the WFFVARIABLE table to find the last sequence number used then add 1 to it before calling the WebRun
