[LIKELY JUNK]Workaround - "advance in dialog" in UWL.

[Dart, Jocelyn]

Hi Tor, 
One option is to use a UWL XML configuration file to override the
standard decision step actions with your own actions.  Just make sure
whatever you call either closes the workitem (e.g. by calling a WAPI) or
sends an event which lets your workflow know that the workitem is
obsolete.
Regards,
Jocleyn

Hi all.

 

My business case is as following:

 

A user logs on to MSS, and will get a decision step as a workitem in his
UWL.

 

STEP 1:

The decision step will have 3 choices:

1. Go to URL A

2. Go to URL B

3. Exit

 

Choice 1 and 2 will be continued by another activity step (call_url).
Call_url is a method which calls the FM Call_browser (displaying a
certain URL in the browser).

 

STEP 2:

When the user clicks on "Go to URL A", the system should launch the
URL(call_url method is called) without having to open a new workitem
called "Call URL".

 

As you probaby know, UWL doesn`t support "synchonous dialog chain" /
"advance in dialog".

 Secondary method (amodal method) is a workaround.

  

Question:

The best solution would of course be, if there is a possibility to make
step 1 continue directly to step 2 without having to go through another
workitem (a seamless transition - like using "advance in dialog" in
Business Managers Workplace).

How can this be done?

 

I would glady appreciate your input.

 

Thanks in advance.

 

Best regards,

 

Tor
