Any easy way to start a PfiTrigger from an Infor OS workspace?

Rebecca Derr

I thought it might be nice to have a collection of manually started IPAs in a menu/list perhaps on an Infor OS workspace with a way to start them from there.  I know I can show a list in a workspace with some workarounds, but I can't take an action on anything in that list from the workspace.  Infor's OS app designer isn't being any help either, it seems like it's not really designed for use with landmark processes currently.

Anyone done anything like this before?

OK I answered my own question here, so I thought I'd share.  I am able to use configuration console to add a button to a list.  So, I created a new list on PfiTrigger like this:

PfiTriggerOnDemand is a List

    title is "ProcessTriggers"

    initially display search

    orientation is landscape

    font offset is 0

    Display Fields

        button of "<PfiTrigger>"

                action is Start

                label is "Trigger"

                display as link

        WorkTitle

            propagated from FlowTriggers

            allow update

            sort order is ByWorkTitle

        FlowName

            propagated from FlowTriggers

            sort order is ByFlowName

                is default

    Instance Selection

        where (IsFlowTrigger and (WorkTitle = "Worktitle I want to start1" or WorkTitle = "Worktitle I want to start2"))

    form is FlowTriggerCompositeForm

Then I'm able to use the landing page designer/widget workaround to add this list to the workspace which allows me to start the trigger from there.
