Drillback to a ION Task

I am looking to have a drillback (or a URL as parameter) which will go straight to a specific task. Is there a Ming.le xml view which can be installed which would allow this?

// which will go straight to a specific task// - The task you mean here is a Workflow Task or an ERP action screen?

If its the former, Workflow tasks are accessed through dedicated home page widgets. You can make your own page with custom filters for tasks that you want to see and the home page can be addressed by a URL.

If its the latter, this is standard functionality provided in the ION alerts and tasks/ Ming.le framework.

ERPs can create their view definition files and upload them in Ming.le.And in ION you can map the view parameters to workflow parameters. At runtime, when you click on a drillback link on the task, it will take you to the concerned ERP screen as defined in the drillback view definition.

Hope this helps.

HI Vignesh,

Thank you for the info.

I have created a drill back on a workflow for a task, but on the task I cant see the drill back link.

Could you help me with a screenshot where the link is?

Thanks,

Hi Ravikiran, Have you ever solved this one? I am still wondering how I could accomplish this? Thanks. Nancy

Looks like there may be a couple different questions being asked in this thread.

First, there is no way to create a hyperlink or drill view directly to a task as of today. I think this is what Nancy the OP is originally asking. Feel free to enter an enhancement request for this ( https://ers.infor.com/Ers/Login.aspx ).

Second, if instead the question is how do you add a drill to an ERP screen to a workflow task then Vignesh has answered it.

Third, if the question is how do drillbacks look within the workflow task UI then I have included a screenshot below (its actually an Alert, but a Task link looks the same). The purple icon is used to access the drills. The icon shows a number indicating how many links there are. In the example, I have 12 links, probably more than you would normally have, but it is just an example.
