Hi,

We are using a workflow for validation triggered via an Event Action. In the Failure Event, the error message is static.

We want to show a dynamic error message similar to:
Error_SYS.Appl_General('Error :P1 and :P2')
by passing values (P1, P2) at runtime.

We tried using workflow variables in the Failure Event message, but it still behaves as static.

Questions:

  • Is it possible to pass dynamic values to the Failure Event error message?
  • Can we achieve something similar to Error_SYS.Appl_General in a workflow?

 

Event Action:

 

Workflow:

 

Thanks!

    Hi,

    As far as I know dynamic error messages not possible in workflows.

    You have to use plsql event action , but its in depreciation notes.

    Hi ​@wahelk ,

     

    It was communicated to us not to use the event action that is why we are exploring option to show the error message dynamically with input value.

    Any other way to achieve this with validation workflow?

     

    Thanks

    Hi,

    I am not sure we have other options. I am working on such right now and IFS mentioned that this is not possible. I couldn't find any other alternative.

    Best Regards,

      Hi ​@N.GEORGI 

      I tried that solution and also configure custom projection but it is not working in validation workflow.

      How you call the workflow with event action or from other way?

      I am using the event validation and it not worked. If possible could you send your BPMN file and how you called that workflow

       

      Thanks
