Parameters

This API has standard parameters (see Standard Parameters) and the following parameters:

• PIO_SOURCECDRNAMING (Mandatory) This is a parameter of table type CDR_NAMING_VERSIONS_OBJ_TYPE that contains CDR Naming Version attributes.

  For OBJECT_TYPE_RC enter $OBJTYPES$WORKFLOW if you are creating a definition only; $OBJTYPES$WORKFLOWREF if you are creating an instance of an existing definition; and also if you are creating a new definition and an instance of it.

• PI_CREATEOBJECT (Mandatory) Enter DEFN to create a definition only; INST to create an instance of an existing definition; or BOTH to create a new definition and an instance of it.

  Valid parameters are: Definition—DEFN, instance—INST, both —BOTH.

• PI_INSTANCE_SUBTYPE_ID (Optional) If you are creating a new instance, enter the ID for the subtype you want to give the instance.

  If you are creating a definition only, do not enter a value for this parameter.

• PI_DEFCLASSIFICATIONCOLL (Optional) By default the new definition is classified according to the subtype you assigned it in the CDR_NAMING_VERSION_OBJ_TYPE.

  If you want to override the default classifications for one or more classification levels, use this parameter. This is a collection of CDR_CLA_OBJ_TYPEs, which have 5 attributes, including CLA_LEVEL_ID and CLASSIFICATION_ID.

  If you want the definition to inherit its classifications for a particular level from its parent, enter the classification level ID and, for the CLASSIFICATION_ID, enter 0 (zero). If you want to explicitly assign one or more terms for a particular level, initialize a CDR_CLA_OBJ_TYPE for each term, entering the classification level ID and, for the CLASSIFICATION_ID, the term ID. The PAR_ attributes are not relevant to Workflow definitions. Do not enter any values for them.

• PI_INSTCLASSIFICATIONCOLL (Optional) By default the new instance is classified according to the subtype you assigned it in the PI_INSTANCE_SUBTYPE_ID.

  If you want to override the default classifications for one or more classification levels, use this parameter. This is a collection of CDR_CLA_OBJ_TYPEs, which have 5 attributes, including CLA_LEVEL_ID and CLASSIFICATION_ID.

  If you want the instance to inherit its classifications for a particular level from its parent Work Area, enter the classification level ID and, for the CLASSIFICATION_ID, enter 0 (zero).

  If you want to explicitly assign one or more terms for a particular level, initialize a CDR_CLA_OBJ_TYPE for each term, entering the classification level ID and, for the CLASSIFICATION_ID, the term ID. The PAR_ attributes are not relevant to Workflows. Do not enter any values for them. If you are not creating a new instance, do not enter values here.
