skip tt_data instantiation wfm

tirrudev

Hi,

I have a requirement to skip the tt_data initiation screen which says "Submit Now" Submit Later" screen on the click to Finish Button..I did a similar thing for wft..But can some one suggest How can i do for wfm. I am attaching the screen shot for better understanding..I did the similar thing for wft .



function handleFinish() {
if(IWDatacapture.isModified()) response = confirm("You are about to start a workflow. Click OK to continue, Cancel to go back and save.");
 if (!response) {
  return;
 }

       var cmd = "/iw-cc/command/iw.ccpro.new_job";
       var wft = "solutions/author.wft";
       var url = "http://" + server + cmd + "?iw_template_file=" + wft + "&vpath;
       var workflowWindow = window.open();
       workflowWindow.window.location.href = url;
     }
 IWDatacapture.close();
}

I tried the same for wfm but it is not working
var cmd = "/iw-cc/command/iw.ccpro.new_job";
       var wf = "test.ipm";
       var url = "http://" + server + cmd + "?iw_template_file=" + wft + "&vpath;

CAN SOME PLEASE SUGGEST FOR WFM..

Thanks in Advance

You can initiate a WFM workflow using FormAPI. You need to create a Form through javascript and submit that form with required parameter.
You can find the DCT & FormAPI code in sitepublisher guide for FaqEntry Data type.
There are many OOTB js class available. You need to include those js script into your DCT, like DomUtil and HtmlUtil.

Hi Faizi,

Thankyou very much for the response...I have gone through the faq data and could skip the screen by doing as follows:


function handleOnSaveDone(obj)
{
var ret = lsContext.handleOnSaveDone(obj);
var form = document.createElement('form');
url="/iw-cc/command/iw.group.new_job?";
url += 'workflowType.flag=true&'
url += 'iw_template_name=test&';
url += 'iw_template_file=test';
HtmlUtil.setFormAttribute(form, 'action', url);
HtmlUtil.setFormAttribute(form, 'method', 'POST');
HtmlUtil.setFormAttribute(form, 'target', top.name);
var input = HtmlUtil.createNamedElement('input','vpath',document);
input.type = 'hidden';
input.value = IWDatacapture.getDCRPath();
form.appendChild(input);
document.body.appendChild(form);
form.submit();
ret = false;
return ret;
}
}

Yes.. You got the pointer. You can also instantiate a particular workflow from the same code. You need to add some more input parameter.
One for your workflow name and another for workflow type (WFT/WFM).

Hi,

Is there any chance of missing the workflow initiation as I am handling in the onsavedone?using the code


function handleOnSaveDone(obj)
{
var ret = lsContext.handleOnSaveDone(obj);
var form = document.createElement('form');
url="/iw-cc/command/iw.group.new_job?";
url += 'workflowType.flag=true&'
url += 'iw_template_name=test&';
url += 'iw_template_file=test';
HtmlUtil.setFormAttribute(form, 'action', url);
HtmlUtil.setFormAttribute(form, 'method', 'POST');
HtmlUtil.setFormAttribute(form, 'target', top.name);
var input = HtmlUtil.createNamedElement('input','vpath',docume  nt);
input.type = 'hidden';
input.value = IWDatacapture.getDCRPath();
form.appendChild(input);
document.body.appendChild(form);
form.submit();
ret = false;
return ret;
}
}

There might be case with browser compatibility issues when you will call various callserver method in same event or callserver method before instantiation. But if you are only instantiating workflow in onSaveDone event then i would be not an issue.
