<DIV> I haven’t used the BO Functional Methods in awhile, but
thought I was able to use variable imports back then. At all of my Clients I
create a generic WF Utility Class that I use for Functional Methods in the WF’s
for these purposes. You just need to make sure the Class is Instantiated. If
there’s no Object Key from the WF to use I just use the WF ID # as the key &
in the WF Container I enter an existing WF ID# as an ‘Initial Value’ & it
Instantiates itself. It’s great for Agent Assignments, Deadlines, email
variables, etc. It’s a long shot, but try no spaces; and make sure the Export on
the Method is of type ‘Result Parameter’; or ‘Return’ for a Class. </DIV>
