      Hi Prakash -

      Sure...what are you trying to build? Have you installed PFRT? Are you using it with Smart Office or with Workplace? Are you scheduling a flow or are you using a java trigger from M3?

        Hi Rob Conrad,

        I apologize for late reply, hope you can understand. I have a critical flow to be integrated.

        I am working on ProcessFlow integrator v 9.0.1.4 for M3. We are using Smart Office. We create a preliminary quotation using the M3 program STS100. Then the user will create a quotation using the preliminary quotation created for which we have a business process in m3. Now when the user begins the creation of quotation then the process flow should trigger and it should keep the quotation creation on hold and should execute a flow which will sends an approval email to manager. Basing on the managers approval the quotation creation process of m3 should run or terminate.

        In brief when ever a business event like creation of quotation in m3 happens process flow should trigger a flow by keeping the business event triggered the flow on hold.And basing on useraction the flow should proceed.

        I would be very thankful and appreciate your help

        :)

          Hi Prakash -

          You need to use a java trigger and modify your STS100 quotation program in MAK to fire on the business event for this to work in Smart Office. Look up cPFIAsynchTrigger class and instantiate that class in your quote program STS100. Then the flow will start.

          On the approval side - you will probably want to use the M3 API node in PFI to update data in the STS100 or you can also write to the SQL table using the SQL Node.

          I'll send you a private message too, I should have an example sitting around that you might be able to use, but I cannot get to that until late tonight or tomorrow morning.

              Hi,

              I also need help regarding the IPA trigger via M3 Java (MAK).

               

              We built a code in PPS200 that will trigger the flow using use cPFIAsyncTrigger2.

              When we ran the PPS200, we encountered an error below.

              com.lawson.grid.proxy.ProxyException: Null Proxy for: com.lawson.bpm.eprocessserver.interfaces.TriggerFlow DataArea: lmdv2ipa

              Are you familiar with the error above?
