Defining the Command Center Actions

After you define the business object, you define actions for each object. These actions indicate for each object a combination of possible attribute values what action is taken (launch a business service or workflow). The relationship is one-to-many.

This task is part of Process of Configuring the Command Center Action Form.

To define actions for the Command Center applet

1. Navigate to Administration - Command Center screen, the Defined Objects view, and then select the Object Definition for which you wish to define actions.
2. Scroll down to the Action Definition list, create actions, and complete the fields as described in the following table.

   Field	Parameters	Description
   Attribute 1 Required	Check box.	Indicates whether or not an entry in the Driving Field (Attribute 1) is required for the Command Center to return results.
   Attribute 1 Map	Free text.	Works in concert with the Expression field of the Object Definition to determine the contents of the Command Center dropdown menus.
   Attribute 2-4	Free text.	Value lists for Attributes 2-4.
   Command	Free text. Each entry must be unique, that is, you cannot use the same command for different actions.	The command line equivalent for the action. These commands are restricted to the Business Object with which they are associated. See also Creating Global Commands for the Command Line Applet.
   Command Help Text	Free text.	The Help text for the command help feature when a question mark (?) is entered using the command line. This field is reserved for future use. You can expose it in some manner, if you choose, using a custom configuration.
   Business Service	Free text. EX: FINS Goto View Service	The name of the Business Service to be run.
   Business Service Context	Free text.	The parameters for the Business service.
   Business Service Method	Free text.	The method for the selected Business service.
   Public Flag	Check box.	If checked (true), then any roles selected for the action do not apply. If unchecked (false), then any roles selected do apply and visibility to actions are limited by the selected roles.
   Inactive	Check box.	This hides the defined action and attribute combination.
