Passing table values from one webdypro screen to the next in BPM flow

[Former Member]

Hi,

I have a BPM scenario where in User 1 will be entering data on a java webdynpro view in the form of a table. The user 1 should be able to edit contents of the table.

These set of values in the table from User 1 needs to be passed to User 2 through BPM. The User 2 should be able to read the values edited by User 1 in the table.

Please could you suggest how we could map the table attribute?

With respect to Context Elements, I have a Node created for the table. But, the data doesnot seem to pass from User 1 to User 2.

Any suggestions on this would be extemely helpful.

Thank You.

Hi Gayathri,

Thank you very much for the reply. When I try to map the node of 1st User to the 2nd User... we get the error as "incompatible expression type". This happens when we try to bind the Output attribute of the first Human Activity Property to the Input attribute of the second Human Activity Property.

Do you have any links or example documents where in they have mapped table values from one User to the next User?

Hi Suyukti,

When mapping the elements between tasks (Input/Output Mapping), first map the node and then map the attributes one by one that are inside the node. This way, your error will be gone.

Alternatively, you can try to righ-click drag&drop the source node on the target node. The Studio will then try to create explicit mappings automatically based on the types and names of the elements.

Hi,

Thank you very much.

This worked when I tried mapping the elements between tasks (Input/Output Mapping), first map the node and then map the attributes one by one that are inside the node.

My issue got resolved. Thanks for your inputs.

Hi,

Please follow the below mentioned steps:

Create a Human Activity containing the task(WebDynpro Task) to edit the table values.

Create a data context of type (Context of the table node used in the Webdynpro task).

Map the output of the human activity to the input of the data context.

Create another human activity that contains the task to read the values of task1

Assign this task to User 2

Map the output of data context with the input of the second human activity.
