How to multiple DCOs

Hi Dkahraman

I have not tested but you can try the below

Prerequisites:

Create Multiple Workflows and add to Document item type and ensure that Assignments are added in Workflows

Create Custom Form name : Workflow_Form with Document Number, Drop Down list for selecting Workflow, Submit Button and Close button

Create Action named Submit Workflow --> Item, Client, None and Method 

Create Method 1: Name:  Submit_workflow and add to action created above.

//debugger;
var inn = this.getInnovator();
var isLocked = this.getLockStatus();
if (isLocked !== 0)
{
alert("Unlock the document to start workflow");
return;
}
//Check whether the item already associated to any other workflow
var wfProcess = inn.newItem("Workflow Process","get");
wfProcess.setProperty("name",this.getProperty("item_number"));
wfProcess = wfProcess.apply();
var wfCount = wfProcess.getItemCount();
if ( wfCount !== 0)
{
alert("Workflow Process already exists for this document");
return;
}

//load workflow form
var formItem = new Item("Form", "get");
formItem.setAttribute("select", "id");
formItem.setProperty("name", "Workflow_Form");
formItem = formItem.apply();
if( formItem.isError())
{
alert("Error loading form");
return;
}

// Set Parameters
var param = top.aras.newObject();
param.title = "Select Workflow";
param.formId = formItem.getItemByIndex(0).getID();
param.item = this;
param.aras = top.aras;
options= {
dialogWidth: 700,
dialogHeight: 200,
resizable: 'no'
};
var res = top.aras.modalDialogHelper.show('DefaultModal', window, param, options, 'ShowFormAsADialog.html');

In Workflow_Form, onform populated form event, add the below method to load the drop down list of workflow

Create Method 2 : Add_DropDownList_Workflow (Ensure that your form has workflow_dropdown field

var inn = document.thisItem.getInnovator();
var workflowField = getFieldByName("workflow_dropdown").getElementsByTagName("select")[0];
// clear List
var listCount = workflowField.options.length;
for (var i = 0; i < listCount; i++) {
workflowField.remove(workflowField.options);
}
workflowField.options[0] = new Option("","");
listCount = 1;
// Workflow associated with Document
var item = inn.newItem("ItemType","get");
item.setProperty("name","Document");
item = item.apply();
if(item.isError())
{
top.aras.AlertError(item.getErrorDetail());
return;
}
var workflowList= inn.newItem("Allowed Workflow","get");
workflowList.setProperty("source_id",item.getID());
workflowList = workflowList.apply();
if(workflowList.isError())
{
alert("Cannot fetch Workflow for Document");
return;
}
var count = workflowList.getItemCount();
if (count === 0)
{
alert("No allowed Workflow linked with Document");
return;
}
for (var i = 0; i < count; i++)
{
var listVal = workflowList.getItemByIndex(i);
var workflow = listVal.getRelatedItem();
var workflowName = workflow.getProperty("name");
workflowField.options

= new Option(workflowName,workflowName);
listCount++;
}
return;

In Workflow_Form,  Submit button, Create On Click field event, add the below method

Create Method 3: Instantiate_Workflow

//debugger;
var inn = document.thisItem.getInnovator();
document.getElementById("MainDataForm").submit.disabled = true;
var workflowField = getFieldByName("workflow_dropdown").getElementsByTagName("select")[0];
var workflowName = workflowField.options[workflowField.selectedIndex].value;

//Document for workflow
var documentNo = document.forms[0].item_number.value;

var documents = inn.newItem("Document","get");
documents.setProperty("item_number",documentNo);
documents = documents.apply();
if(documents.isError())
{
alert(documents.getErrorDetail());
document.getElementById("MainDataForm").submit.disabled = false;
return;
}
var documentID = documents.getID();

var workflowItem = inn.newItem("Workflow Map","get");
workflowItem.setProperty("name",workflowName);
workflowItem = workflowItem.apply();
if(workflowItem.isError())
{
alert(workflowItem.getErrorDetail());
document.getElementById("MainDataForm").submit.disabled = false;
return;
}
var mapId = workflowItem.getID();
var workflow = documents.instantiateWorkflow(map_ID);
if (workflow.isError())
{
alert("Error starting workflow");
document.getElementById("MainDataForm").submit.disabled = false;
return;
}
else
{
workflow.apply("startWorkflow");
alert("Workflow Started Successfully.");
closeWindow();
return;
}

Hi Dkahraman

I cannot able to share the method here as the size exceeds the allowed limit and it is marked as SPAM.
