creating a purchase requisition item (BUS2009) object refference inside a workflow (Ronen Fox)

[Shai Eyal]

Ronen,
 
How r u ? haven't heard from u 4 a while...
 
As per you're question, in the past I was unable to implement without little coding (and I still do not think it is possible). 
 
However I have a general solution for such occasions: I suggest creating STRCONCATENATE method for object ZSYSTEM which just receives, for example, 5 strings and return these concatenated as one string. Afterwards create background task for this method.
 
In such way you can create your key, this time for PReq item, tomorrow can be used for other objects.
 
Good luck,

Hello all,

A custom WF is built around the following objects:

BUS2012    -    Purchase Order
BUS2105    -    Purchase Requisition
BUS2009    -    Purchase Requisition Item

The problem is creating the object reference for BUS2009 (req. item)

I have two container elements - one has the requisition number and one has
the item number.
The key of BUS2009 is the req. no + item no. together.
For example, if the req. no is 10000045 and the item no. is 00010, than the
key for
BUS2009 should be: 1000004500010

The way I tried to "build" the key from the two container elements is as
follows:

1. A container element *preq_key *is defined for BUS2009 key

2. Container operation to add the req. number:

Result Element  preq_key                          preq_key
Assignment      =    Assign (contents of table are deleted first)
Expression      &PURCHASEREQ_SINGLE&
PurchaseReq_single

3 Container operation to add the item number

Result Element  preq_key                          preq_key
Assignment      <-    Add only to table (contents are extended)
Expression      &REQ_ITEM_NO&                            req_item_no


The problem is - the item number is not added to the container element, only
the req. number.

I would like very much to be able to solve this "inside" the WF builder,
without having to implement new methods or attributes in the business object
itself.


Your help is much appreciated !


Thanks & best regards,

Ronen
