7.1. Objective

Enable a Metadata form to interact with the workflow engine at Fluig, performing operations such as:

    • Starting a new process (start request)

    • Cancel a request

    • Change the deadline date of a task

    • Change the task comments

    • Return the value of a workflow form field

    • Move request to next activity

    • Select user(s) and advance automatic activity

    • Assume a task

    • Obtain the attachments of a request

    • Return the activity number where the request is

    • Return the number of the next activity in a request

    • Return activity details available for selection

    • Return users who can perform a current task in a request

    • Return the processes the user can initiate in a request

    • Returns the users available in opening a request

    • Searches processes available for initialization

Interaction with the wokflow engine will be made via ABLScript codes using the command ECM-REQUEST-SERVICE(). This command will perform calls to the WorkflowEngineService, as shown in the following diagram:

Figure 6.1.a

7.2. Programming Guide

Syntax for command ECM-REQUEST-SERVICE:

variable = ECM-REQUEST-SERVICE(serviceID, operationId, [param1, param2, param3, ...]).

 

Where:

  • variable: variable of the CHARACTER type which will receive the command execution response. The answer may come as a single character, which can be converted to another type through functions DECIMAL(), INTEGER() or DATE(). Or it may be a JSON character that will be converted to a TEMP-TABLE through the JSON function - DECODE().

  • serviceID: character with the ID of the service to be performed in Fluig. To meet the requirements defined in this document, the serviceId="WORKFLOW" should be used. In the future, methods may be implemented for accessing other services at Fluig, as for example DocumentService or FolderService.

  • operationID: it identifies the operation (method) to be performed in WorkflowEngineService. Example: “START-PROCESS”.

  • param1, param2, ...: list of parameters to be sent to the service.

Usage example

Find below an example of a Datasul Metadata Freeform form that performs some operations with the ECM-REQUEST-SERVICE command.

Figure 6.2.a

Figure 6.2.a shows a form that when loaded performs the search for available processes for the logged user and presents them in a grid. In Figure 6.2.a, the process "Proc3" was selected, which has an associated form. The form fields and annotation data were informed. Finally, the user clicked the START-PROCESS button, creating a new instance of the process, resulting in the process ID 119.

Below, several form scripts are presented.
