invoke Business Process: Starting Variable Values using a Token

asked on January 26, 2017

Hi,

Is it possible, or is there an alternative solution to my current scenario?

I'd like to start a Laserfiche Form from Workflow using the Invoke Business Process activity but instead of having to select the Fields from the Form, simply 'hard-write' the fields and values in using a Multi-value Token.

Example:

Where %(Values_To_Populate_Form) = "Field_1 = My Value 1", "Field_2 = My Value 2"...

I aim to push data between two Laserfiche Forms servers by downloading the XML generated from a form submission on Server A, using the Read XML and Pattern Matching to generate my tokens and dropping the output into the Invoke Business Process activity on Server B.

This method would mean that (if the Forms Business Processes were in sync in terms of the variable names) - any field changes wouldn't require modification to the Workflows.

Thanks,

Dom

"not currently possible" ... don't leave me hanging here!

Been running with the current setup since but I'd love it if this could be a thing for future. When dealing with 30+ forms across multiple sites it becomes a chore to have to keep adding extra branches or separate Workflows to set a field variable!

If the form isn't present on the server we're happy for this to drop to error.

I thought perhaps I could run a SQL activity from Forms but the data isn't refreshed on the Form without some form of update or manual intervention.

I'm open to suggestions for this.
