What is the correct way to instantiate an object?

[PEOU Tom T]

Natasha,

That was the answer I was looking for.

Many thanks for your help.

 

Kind regards,

Tom

 

 

 

 

------------------

 

 

Your workflow is started by BUS1065 and retrieves a list of equipment

from object EQUI

 

Tom,

 

 

Try this to see if it works for you. 

 

Create a workflow container called OBJECTKEY (data reference SWOTOBJID-

OBJKEY).

Create a container operation step to populate OBJECTKEY container with

value of the key of your new object.

Create a workflow container with the reference type to your new object

that you trying to create (EQUI).

Create a background task (I created a new task) based on object SYSTEM

and method GENERICINSTANTIATE

Binding definition between task and workflow:

 

Task container <- workflow container

OBJECTKEY <- &OBJECTKEY&

 

OBJECTTYPE <- your new object type EQUI

 

Task container -> workflow container

OBJECTINSTANCE -> &EQUI_CONTAINER& -- container that you created with

reference to the object type.

            

 

I can't remember exact syntax for multiple key fields, but I think

OBJKEY is a composite field that combines all key fields of the business

object.            

 

            

 

Please let me know if it worked.

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
