Save Workflow history after completion

vtwadhwani

Hi,

I was wondering if it is possible to somehow save or log the workflow history within TeamSite and also to be able to search these logs.

Thanks,

Hi ,

You can store all the workflow information either in flat file or database just before the completion of workflow.

If you store in database it will be easy to query it .

With flat file the query part is slightly difficult.

Just before endtask you need to write an external task which will update the database ( or flat file) with all desired workflow information.

To expand on the above just a bit - you can utilize the CLT iwgetwfobj to dump the entire XML record of the job and all of its tasks (read the CLT manual and/or usage information from the CLT itself for more details) -- or you can use modules like TeamSite::WFworkflow and TeamSite::WFtask to achieve similar results.

If you have a lot of money to spend you could consider the TeamSite Reporting module as well. We haven't had very good luck with it though....

It depends on yout budget and in the short term you could, as recomeded by Fish, dump the XML to a file. Then at a later date you can enhance and migrate the old data.

I have a perl script I call from an externaltask that does what Fish describes to produce a formatted text file with what I consider the more pertinent information from a job. You can easily modify the script to change to output to fit your needs. Email me if you'd like a copy of the script.

BTW. Smitty, delete some of your sent private messages. You are allowed only a certain number total and cannot send or receive messages until you lose some.

Wow I had over 900 private messages. I though "wow I used to be really popular!" but as I deleted them all (50 at a time - thanks Interwoven!) I saw they were all from you. Ya freakin' stalker!

I learned to delete yours very quickly.

BTW, you may need to edit your control panel settings and set up a notification (popup or email) for a PM. This new software does not have the nice little flag the old site had.

Hi,

Adding to the question above, Is it possible to get the information about all the iterations of the task.
As i understand if we add an external task in the end to get this information we will get only the last iteration of the task and not all.

Any light on the same.

Hi,

I have not tried that at present, but if you use GetComments method of task object then you would get all the transitions been to the job along with all the iterations. However, through iwgetwfobj CLT, you can get the job details being instantiated from a WFT.

At the end you can get all the transition comments - including all those from a task which has been used multiple times in the course of he workflow, but you will not (if I recall correctly) get each of the tasks activation / unactivation times - only its last set.

If you want to get each activation / unactivation time - you will probably need something like an iwat trigger script to run on activation / deactivation of tasks which records data somewhere that you can find it at the end when you create your dump of job information.

I thought so, thanks for confirmation.
