    Hey!  Some help would be very much appreciated!!  I'm using the WebRun node to add a folder onto a work unit.  However, I can't seem to get my syntax correct.

    A KB article said these are the fields to pass with the string:

    Field Names
    attachBy
    deleteFile
    description
    documentId
    fileName
    form
    keyString
    sequenceNumber
    startDate
    startTime
    workUnit

    I'm not sure where I put the file path from these values, I tried the keyString and documentId but neither seemed to work.  Mabye I had the syntax wrong, what is the proper syntax for writing the file path and name into this url?

    Thanks!

        The program for adding a folder is: bpm/xml/folderForm.do
        Here's an example of adding the PA52 folder:
        method=Add&attachBy=System&keyString=CompanyEmployeeActionEffect_Date&documentId=FORM&form=PA52.1&fileName=PERSONNEL ACTIONS&startDate=FrDt&workUnit=oWorkUnit&sequenceNumber=1

        Angle Brackets around variables removed.

          That is assuming there are no other folders already attached to the workunit.  If you want to ensure you are adding to the bottom you need to first query the WFFOLDER table to find the last sequence number used, add 1 and use that value as sequenceNumber.

            In PF8, I use AGS to delete PA42 that is attached to the workunit. Now I am reading I need to use webrun. What is the string/command to delete the PA42.1 form attached to a workunit? There is only one attached.

            Also, we are already in LSF9 environment and Lawson 8 app. But I cannot find in the server the folder or forms to use. Where in the server can I find these files?

            /bpm/xml/workUnitBForm.do
            /bpm/xml/folderForm.do    


            Thank you,

            Jude

              Here's a sample to add a Form - you should be able to figure out how to Delete it from this sample (I removed the variable tags)

              Using a WebRun the Web Program =
              bpm/xml/folderForm.do

              The Command =
              method=Add&attachBy=System&keyString=CompanyEmployeeActionEffect_Date&documentId=FORM&form=PA52.1&fileName=PERSONNEL ACTIONS&startDate=startDate&workUnit=oWorkUnit&sequenceNumber=1

                I have been trying it and nothing seems to work. I then went to the server where the consultant installed PF and LSF and I cannot find “bpm/xml/folderForm.do” and “bpm/xml/workUnitBForm.do”. Are these files hidden?

                Thanks

                  I think the files you are looking for should be in this directory. They are .jsp files without the word Form.do on the end. I was actually looking for them myself yesterday and that is what I came up with.

                      Good afternoon.

                      Does anyone know the proper syntax for adding folders in version 10?  We are in the midst of upgrading and have several flows which we need to replicate folderForm.do within a Webrun.  In the end, I am not limited to only using that command.  I only need the endresult to be the same.   Namely, adding an entry into the new IPA folder area with our special link.  In this case, a hyperlink for uploading documents to requisitions. 

                      Besides here, I can be reached at flores@cshl.edu.

                      Thank you in advance.

                        I haven't used folders before, but all of the items that were in the bpm section are now in landmark. You should be able to do this using a Landmark Transaction node in your flow (module pfi, object PfiWorkunitFolder).
