BPA Command needs to support bulk execution

We can create a BPA workflow and then use Page Designer to create a command button that calls the BPA.

This currently only works when exactly 1 record is highlighted in a list - if highlight more than one, the button disappears.

It needs to be enhanced to support bulk execution i.e. highlight multiple rows and the BPA will be run individually for each row.

reposted as an idea.

 

 


@paul harland Hi Paul, FYI I think I came up with a hacky workaround for this exact problem. I created a SQL package/method that’s sole job is to flip a boolean custom attribute to ON for the record. Then I added a command button to call the package (which can be done in bulk), and a custom event/action to fire the BPA when that attribute changes. The BPA flips the custom attribute back OFF at the end of its execution.
