Overriding Process Flow Description at Runtime

You can override (change) the description of the process flow during the execution. This can be done using the put-context-var action.

Steps to override the description at Runtime:

  1. In the Process Designer, in the Repository View panel, Select Actions.

  2. Select the Put-Context-Var action and drag it to the Graph Canvas area anywhere within the process flow.

  3. Connect the Put-Context-Var action as shown below.

  4. Double-click Put-Context-Var and the Activity Properties panel is displayed.

  5. In the Context Variable Information window, do the following:

    1. Select VARIABLES and click Add New.
    2. Leave the Activity Name field blank.
    3. Select Process Flow Description from the Variable Name.
    4. Type the new description of the process flow in the Variable Value.
    5. Click Add to close the Context Variable Information window.

    This creates a variable and is added to the list of existing context variables.

  6. Click on the Graphic Canvas Area to close the Activity Properties panel and return to the Process Designer.

  7. Save the process flow and exit from the Process Designer.
