Usage:

 

 

Example:

Let’s build and execute the “DMSAddHistoryToFolderDef” example:

  • Create a new process definition named “DMSAddHistoryToFolderDef” and open it in designer mode. 
  • Drag a “DMSAddHistoryToFolder” step to the canvas.
  • Connect the dots between the “Start” and “DMSAddHistoryToFolder” step, as shown above. 
  • Click the "DMSAddHistoryToFolder" step to configure its "Required" properties. Provide a name for the step. Click the button to select the DMS folder from the drop-down list. Click the Save button. Note: Click the "AI Predict" button to have Copilot add new process steps that match your process description. 

 

  • Click the button to select the DMS folder from the drop-down list. A pop-up window is displayed for configuration. Alternatively, you can use the filter to select the folder or provide a variable or global reference that contains the DMS folder ID. Click to expand or collapse the DMS folders. Select the folder and click the Save button. 

 

  • The “Logging” setting configuration is necessary for documentation and also measures workflow progress and completion percentage. This is achieved by configuring the step state and percent fields individually, as shown in the images below. Configure the “Logging” using the following properties.

 

  • Save the process definition, create a new instance, and then execute it. Render the process instance to note that the status is completed. 

 

  • On the DMS page, select the folder and click the ellipsis button, and select the “View History” option. 

 

  • The DMS Folder history information table is rendered on a new page, as shown in this example below.
