Workflow Event/Response Combinations - Delete

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by Romryan

Hi All,

Is it possible to delete an event from preceding event. I am customizing a new workflow and I am trying to change the event in the preceding event from my AL solution but nothing is reflecting. If I uninstall and unpublish the extension, that event is still available in the preceding event list. How else can it be removed so that I can rebuild and publish my solution again.

I have the same question (0)

    Hi Romryan,

    I think this is handled by code.

    In C/AL there were 2 Codeunits created:

    1520 - Workflow Event Handling / 1521 Workflow Response Handling

    In those, we add the events to the library (CreateEventsLibrary/CreateResponsesLibrary) and set the Predecessors (AddEventPredecessors/AddResponsePredecessors).

    I think in addition to your extension, you need to somehow add your predecessors preferences in there as well.

    Then you may want to take a look into the Workflow Event Hierarchies, where you can define for each EVENT, what you want to allow as Response or not:

    I hope it helps,

    Venessa,

    I have done so the problem is that when I change one of my custom event nothing changes even after rebuilding and publishing.

    i.e. an event "Approval Request for Requisition is approved" is not changing if I edit and change the any word. i.e. aprroved to Approved.

    Hi Romryan

    As far as I know, you need to delete that event manually by creating page list editable for Table 1520 - Workflow Event or creating function to delete that record.

    Wira,

    Thank you very much for reply. What about recreating the event?. I deleted the event workflow event table from SQL but rebuilding and republishing didn't recreate the even/related new event.

    In the CU - 1520 Workflow Event Handling run this code below

    codeunit 52121429 "Workflow Event Handling Ext"

    {

       trigger OnRun()

       begin

           //Ibrahim Wasiu: To write into Table, Workflow Event Handling

           CreateEventsLibrary();

       end;

    Best of luck.
