Use of Assignment tab in Data Manager

[Former Member]

Hi,

Can someone give me some real time example of using Assignment tab in data manager and what is the need of assignment.

In Data manager guide it's written that : "Instead of retuning boolean value, we can use any data type and we can assign this value to user editable field" ... Can some one explain me with example?

I also want to know "Is it possible to define assigment in Data Manager and on the basis of users i can assign this assigments with the help of workflow?

Thanks in advance,

Assignments provide users a convenient way to fill in fields.

You can set values for a certain field using the "Assignment" workflow step.

Eg: Approval Status

You can set the value for the field "Approval Status" based on certain other fields.

Several assignments for the same field can be defined.

Assignments are selected during runtime to calcualte the field value.

You have to be in Record mode to create Assignments.

Select the table for which you want to define the assignment.

The assignment is later bound to this table which is unchangeable.

Hope this helps.
