What is the correct way to instantiate an object?

[Kjetil Kilhavn]

If you have a method that finds this equipment I would consider changing
that to a virtual attribute of object type EQUI. Then you'll have the
equipment with you whenever you use your object type, and multiline
handling is quite easy.
 
Otherwise, using System.GenericInstantiate should be pretty
straightforward - but I remember having trouble using the existing tasks
because they had the object type predefined. If you create your own task
it shouldn't be a problem. With the multiple key fields you will
probably have to concatenate tem into the key yourself, at least
System.GenericInstantiate will not handle that for you.

Subject: What is the correct way to instantiate an object?



 

Hi All,

 

Can someone advise on the best way to instantiate another object into a
workflow?

For example, I want to retrieve a list of equipment from object EQUI
that is connected to an employee in BUS1065.

My workflow reads in a key field of 'employee number' and finds
equipment connected to that employee. 

I want to instantiate the object EQUI so I can easily retrieve
attributes from that object.

 

Can someone give me a good example of how I can use the
SYSTEM.GENERICINSTANTIATE method to instantiate this object?

And if possible, can you provide an example of how I would instantiate
an object that has multiple 'Key Fields'? 

 

Many thanks in advance.

 

Tom
