Correllating Tasks and BDOs

Q&A
1

I have an app page that displays a table of all my BDOs. I’ve created a means to select specific objects. I want to be able to click a button or link after this selection to open the next step in my process for this record.

I think I can do this using a URL call for the form and passing the Task ID for the record that I’ve selected, but I cannot figure out how to correlate the selected record from by BDO to a Task ID.

When I look at the results for the following API Calls, I find no fields that I can use to identify which task is associated with a specific record in my business data.

http://localhost:8080/bonita/API/bpm/process?parameters
http://localhost:8080/bonita/API/bpm/task?parameters
http://localhost:8080/bonita/API/bdm/businessData/com.gft.model.BuildList?q=findAll&p=0&c=100

I’m sure I’m missing something simple. Appreciate the help.

BDO’s are designed to be independent of the tasks that execute them, just like a record on a database.

If you want to correlate a task to a BDO then you will need to add a field to the BDO to correlate them with a number you decide to use.

Don’t forget also that 100’s of tasks can relate to a single BDO so how will you handle this?
