Question

I am trying to direct my workflow based on what sub type the PBO is. The following syntax only works for the Parent types.

if (primaryBusinessObject instanceof wt.doc.WTDocument|com.ptc.ReferenceDocument)

Thanks

You can use ClientTypedUtility.getTypeIdentifier() something like this:

TypeIdentifier ti = ClientTypedUtility.getTypeIdentifier((Object)primaryBusinessObject);

String type = ti.getTypename();//returns something like "wt.doc.WTDocument|mySubTypeName"
