Tab Page Available Objects

Use

All objects that are related to the work item are displayed in the list of available objects.

These objects are stored in container elements of the task container as object references. You can display these objects or add new objects to the container element.

The following are top-level work items:

Ad hoc objects

Objects added to a work item in this or one of the preceding steps of the workflow (container element _Adhoc_Objects of the task container)
Attachment objects

Documents added to a work item in this or one of the preceding steps of the workflow (container element _Attach_Objects of the task container).
Process Objects
- The object currently being processed (container element _WI_Object_ID of the task container)
- The object added for grouping purposes (container element _WI_Group_ID of the task container)
- Objects that are referenced in other elements of the task container
  
  The tab page Available Objects is part of the work item display.

Features

Displaying objects with their default attributes

Each object referenced in the work item container is displayed with its default attribute. The default method of each object can be executed upon request. If no default attribute was defined for the object type, the key fields of the object are displayed.

Adding objects

You can extend and process the list of objects. The main purpose of this is to make the relevant information available to the agents of the subsequent steps in the workflow as well.

Only object types that support the IFFIND interface can be selected. You identify an actual object of this type by specifying its key fields.
