Container element as variable in functional method

[Jeff Rappaport]

Claus,

   I haven’t used the BO Functional Methods in awhile, but thought I was able to use variable imports back then. At all of my Clients I create a generic WF Utility Class that I use for Functional Methods in the WF’s for these purposes. You just need to make sure the Class is Instantiated. If there’s no Object Key from the WF to use I just use the WF ID # as the key & in the WF Container I enter an existing WF ID# as an ‘Initial Value’ & it Instantiates itself. It’s great for Agent Assignments, Deadlines, email variables, etc. It’s a long shot, but try no spaces; and make sure the Export on the Method is of type ‘Result Parameter’; or ‘Return’ for a Class. 

&_Wi_Object_ID.GET_WORKFLOW_TEXT(I_STEP=&Step&)&.

Subject: Container element as variable in functional method

Hi,

 

Could someone please confirm that it is not possible to use a container element as variable in a functional method used directly in the work item text field in a standard task?

 

E.g. this goes perfect: &_Wi_Object_ID.GET_WORKFLOW_TEXT(I_STEP= '340' )&

 

But then I would like to exchange the value ‘340’ with the content of a container element called Step and thus try this:

&_Wi_Object_ID.GET_WORKFLOW_TEXT(I_STEP= &Step& )&

 

But the method does not get any value for the import parameter even the container element has a value.

 

Thanks,

 

Claus.
