Allow us to add Business Objects to Visual Scripts

by on 10-18-2010 07:34 PM

We often find a need to add a Business Object to a Process just so we can use it in an Action. It may be used on forms as well, but we cannot access it within an Action unless it is added to the Process.

 

If we only want to access that BO for one Action, it still means we are forced to load that data for every single action, both on invoking, and on committing. That seems a large overhead just to acces some data for one Action.

 

Allowing this for all Visual Scripts (those tied to an action, form, or control) as well as stand-alone Visual Scripts, would make the Visual Script itself much more flexible. It would also make the Stand-alon Visual Scripts actually useful. As the stand now, they are not very useful as you cannot pass data to them, nor get a return. Given access to a Busienss Object, you could in fact manage both.

Totally agree with Jerome. If nothing else this is key feature that needs to be added.
