Notification method: notification classes class

Syntax

Notification(NotifyFrom, dttmCreated, language_cd)

Description

Use Notification to instantiate a notification object.

Parameters

Parameter	Description
NotifyFrom	Specify the entity the notification is being sent from, as a string. Avoid overusing generic entities with this parameter, as this value, along with the value for dttmCreated are the key to understanding where notifications originated from.
dttmCreated	Specify the date and time the notification is being sent, as a DateTime value. Note: To ensure a unique timestamp for each notification that is sent, you must pass a DateTime value that includes milliseconds. Because the %Datetime system variable always returns 0 for the milliseconds value, use the combination of %Date+%PerfTime instead.
language_cd	Specify the 3-character language code of the current user, as a string.

Returns

A Notification object.

Example

To ensure a unique timestamp for each notification that is sent, you must pass a DateTime value that includes milliseconds to the dttmCreated parameter. Because the %Datetime system variable always returns 0 for the milliseconds value, use the combination of %Date+%PerfTime instead.

import PT_WF_NOTIFICATION:*;
import PT_WF_WORKLIST:*;

Local PT_WF_NOTIFICATION:Notification &MyNotify;

&MyNotify = create PT_WF_NOTIFICATION:Notification("Workflow_Admin", ⇒
%Date + %PerfTime, %Language);
