Customizing Workflow Inbox

[Dart, Jocelyn]

Hi David,
When a user double-clicks on a work item as well as reserving it they automatically start execution.
Which means you could use a BEFORE method to capture the information to a custom table.  Before and after methods are in the same tab as secondary methods in the workflow step definition.
I don't think this would cover the situation where users explicitly use the "Reserve" button to
reserve a work item without executing it.  But in my experience few users are aware of the Reserve button
anyway.

Hello,
Has anyone ever tried customizing the workflow inbox ?
Specifically, when a user double-clicks on a work item they automatically
reserve it.
Can this action be captured and a Z table updated with the name of the
person who has reserved it.
Crazy requirement and potentially fraught with problems I know, but I've
been asked to investigate whether it is possible.
Many Thanks
David
