I'm trying to record a process that will eventually be incorporated into an orchestration. The process starts with an application, where a set of filter criteria will be set (via orchestration inputs) and a search performed. Then I need to iterate over the results of the search, calling a row exit (for each item in the results) to execute another application. The second application takes only a little input, but it does require information that I need to provide, including a date which will be calculated as an existing date for the selected record, plus a specified number of days. Basically, what I'm trying to do is reschedule a collection of work orders out by a specified number of days from when they were originally scheduled.
I'm having a hard time figuring out how to record the process as I've described it. I don't know how to record it and then somehow incorporate the looping over the search results to call the second application.
I had previously tried a different approach where I set up a data request that essentially does the work of the search in the first application and then calling a form request to call the second application. Unfortunately, I think I ran into a major flaw with this approach, in that the form request does not have the knowledge of the "selected record" from the first application that is somehow being passed through the row exit call. In this scenario, the first application is never actually being executed - I am simply iterating through the results of the data request.
Does anyone have suggestions on how to make either of these approaches work?
