Multiple returns from Nested Jobs

nipper

I have a nested job, currently it is approve only. Since the last task in the nested job is endtask, there seems to be only one return.

Can you make multiple returns from a nested WF ? I have a cancel job task that I would like to invoke.

I would make good use of multiple returns from a nested job as well, so add Nike to the list if this ends up being a feature request.

Can you provide a bit more detail about what you're trying to do?
You can have more than one endtask in a workflow.
You can have more than one task transition to an endtask in a workflow.
You can have a nested workflow set a variable in its parent workflow and have the parent workflow check that variable when control is returned to it so that it can carry through a request to abort the job from the nested workflow.

Does any of that help?

That is the part I am missing. Right now we have a nested approval (only) process. Would like to approve/reject from
one or more nested and transition to another step. So the piece I am missing is how to transition success/failure to
the parent. Point me to a manual that I can RTFM

Thanks, fish

Check out TeamSite::WFtask::GetParentTask() - once you have a handle on the parent task, you can do all the kinds of things you want to with respect to other TeamSite::WFtask methods.
