SUMMARY Dynamically Set Workflow Activity

Hi Dax,

Should the code you have given below be given inside a workflow expression ?

In Reply to Dax Williams:

Adding summary:

Dynamic Activity Name (Activity Transition)
//Get the Activity
wt.workflow.engine.WfActivity myActivity = (wt.workflow.engine.WfActivity)self.getObject();
//Modify the Activity
myActivity.setName ("Work Order - " + task1Name); //task1Name is a String
//Save the Activity
myActivity = (wt.workflow.engine.WfActivity) wt.fc.PersistenceHelper.manager.save(myActivity);

Dynamic Activity Instructions
Add your String variable to the activity task instructions. Enclose the variable in curly braces.
{task1Instructions}

Dynamic Activity Participants (WFExpression)
if (task1User != null) //task1User is a wt.org.WTUser variable
{
//SET TEAM
wt.team.Team team = (wt.team.Team)((wt.team.TeamManaged)(self.getObject())).getTeamId().getObject();
//SET THE ROLES
wt.project.Role teamRole = wt.project.Role.toRole("TASK OWNER 1");
//REMOVE THE CURRENT PARTICIPANT
wt.org.WTPrincipal removeUser = null;
wt.team.TeamHelper.service.deleteRolePrincipalMap( teamRole,removeUser,team);
//ADD THE PARTICIPANTS TO THE TO_ROLES
wt.team.TeamHelper.service.addRolePrincipalMap( teamRole, task1User, team );
}

Dynamic Activity Due Date
Create and set a wt.workflow.engine.WfDueDate variable from a preceding task or from code.
Add the wt.workflow.engine.WfDueDate variable to the appropriate task as visible, required and read set to false. Set resettable to true.

Hope this helps,

Hi,

I've added a variable in curly braces into my instructions tab of an activity (a global workflow variable) but all it comes out with is that exactly as it is inputted.

ie {TestDebugString}

So is there anything special I need to do to make this bit work

Dynamic Activity Instructions

Add your String variable to the activity task instructions. Enclose the variable in curly braces.

{task1Instructions}

Hello Dax,

I am having requirement of creating workflow activities with different instructions(actually part instruction is specific to user) for different participant. could you please guide, how i can achieve this?
