About adding notes to a user decision

Mon Mar 20 17:21:27 EST 2006

If you are using the UWL you might want to take a look at the XML config
for Updating Container Handler. 
Could be a useful solution to your problem.

How do i collect the different reason codes in a decision task
For the task, there is an approve, reject decision
for a reject reason, is it possible to do reject based on different
reasons...

	Do you consider the following as an alternative?

	In the Reject outcome of the user decision, create a step with
Advance wi! th dialog checked, using a task based on the method
HTMLPROCESS of the object FORM, then doing "web transaction" to let the
system create the page for us based on the task's container elements
(reject_reason_1, reject_reason_2, etc.).

	The result is a work item that the approver has to complete when
he chooses to reject.

	Thanks,

	G'day Anke,

	Since this is a popular topic at the moment can you please
provide a bit more detail.

	I've just tried to subtype/delegate DECISION and create a custom
method which to begin with simply calls the standard PROCESS method.
When you try to use a task based on this in a decision step it complains
that the task must be based on DECISION.PROCESS. 

	Did you redefine the standard PROCESS method? If so how did you
do it such that it didn't affect any of the normal decision processin!
g??

	I'm currently on a site expecting heavy use of UWL and therefore
would love to have an inclusive rejection reason without the need to
refresh the inbox. 

	Thanks,
	Mark

		Hi,

		I have just finshed doing something very similar.

		The standard functionality provides a pushbutton to
create an attachment 
		(unfortunately not in UWL). If you can make it a
business procedure to have
		the approver use this, then that would be the easiest
and most standard
		solution.

		In my case, the reason for rejection had to be entered
as a mandatory 
		attachment. I m! ade a copy of the decision step and
added the code to
		automatically popup the creation of an attachment if the
decision result is
		Reject. Code calls method SOFM.CREATE

		You can also consider using 2 steps (decision step +
attachment) and 
		continue with immediate dialog. This is a more standard
solution with less
		coding. Unfortunately doesn't work in UWL either.

		Also, have a look at the Conditions tab on the task.
Here you can check
		conditions before the workitem is set to sompleted. You
can use this to make 
		sure that the user has created an attachment before the
workitem is set to
		completed. This is the more standard approach. You will
have to give the
		user instructions on creating the attachment. (Or
they'll think workflow 
		doesn't work.) My client preferred the automatic popup
with prompt to create
		attachment.

		Hope this gives you some ideas on how to resolve it.

		Cheers,
