Displaying Dynamic Applets in a Workflow
Workflows can invoke a dynamic applet as part of a process defined for a product application. This feature allows an application administrator to establish applet instances without requiring recompilation and redeployment of individual applets.
To integrate the dynamic applet in a workflow
Create a subprocess based on the FINS Dynamic UI business object.
Add a Dynamic UI Service business service step and invoke the Set View Name method described in the table in Displaying Dynamic Applets in a Workflow.
(Optional) Add a second Dynamic UI Service business service step and invoke the AddRecord method described in the table in Displaying Dynamic Applets in a Workflow.
Add a User Interact step to display the dynamic applet.
For the view property of the User Interact step, enter the view template name defined in Step 2 of Example of Creating a Dynamic Applet with the Dynamic UI Business Service.
For each button that might be clicked in the dynamic applet, add entries into the Next Steps list applet of the User Interact step, as described in the following table.
