How do I add an action only for a document subtype?

[VladiSlav]

Hello everyone, please tell me how to add an action to the "Actions" button for only one subtype of the document WTDocument?

You need to implement your own custom validator or filter.

Hi

You may check for the property menufor described here :

Defining New Action Model

focus on the "menufor" keyword this point.

Just be aware of the article : CS312920 if this not work, a pre-validation is required.

Sample Code

The following is sample code for an action model that configures a subtype:

<!-- Copied from ChangeManagement-actionModels.xml -->
<!-- Originally copied from menu for wt.change2.WTChangeRequest2 -->
<model name="sample change request actions" menufor="WCTYPE|
wt.change2.WTChangeRequest2|org.default.www.SampleChangeRequest">
<action name="view" type="object"/>
<action name="SETLIFECYCLESTATE" type="pdmObject"/>
<action name="createSubscription" type="subscription"/>
<action name="separator" type="separator"/>
<action name="reviseChangeItems" type="change"/>
<action name="editCapabilityPackage" type="capabilityPackage"/>
<action name="create" type="approach" />
<action name="create" type="capabilityImplementationProject" />
<action name="separator" type="separator"/>
<action name="sandboxAddToProject" type="object"/>
<action name="SBAddToPrj" type="sandbox"/>
<action name="removeShare" type="object"/>
<action name="separator" type="separator"/>
<action name="ManageSecurity" type="accessPermission"/>
<action name="renameObjectWizard" type="object"/>
<action name="delete" type="object"/>
<action name="separator" type="separator"/>
<action name="separator" type="separator"/>
<action name="discuss" type="forum"/>
<action name="copy" type="object"/>
</model>

good luck !
