Way to update Landmark inbasket description from LSF in Infor10?

unknown

Hello everyone,

  We have inbaskets that a group of end users use as 'work queues'.  For example there may be 5 users all working the Payroll inbasket.  The end users want a quick way to identify who is working on a given record in the queue.  In Apps9, we had a Design Studio screen for the Payroll inbasket.  When the end user opened the inbasket record the DS screen would call a LOGAN program that would modify the inbasket description and prepend the end users ID.  Thus an original description of "Payroll request for Joe" would become "a12345 - Payroll request for Joe".

  However, in Infor10 the inbasket description is stored in a Landmark table.  I am looking for any ideas on how to have the LSF Design Studio screen update the inbasket description that resides in Landmark.  Currently my best solution is to have the Design Studio inbasket code trigger another IPA flow that changes the description in Landmark.

  Any ideas would be helpful.

Thanks,

Shawn Van Sluys

I'm assuming you mean the description that shows in when the user clicks on the inbasket to review work waiting for approval. In the IPA flow click on the user task, Display tab and enter the text with variables.



For example for our Req Approval inbasket it's:

RQ Nbr <!RQH_REQ_NUMBER> from <!sReqName>



For our HR user task for PAF actions it's:

Pending Term: <!sEmpName>, #<!iEmpNum> - Effective Date: <!sEffectDate>



Hope that's what you were looking for.
