Ending child process (no code)

Hi Carlos

I don't believe this is possible without some code. There is no event to stop another workflow.

Hi,

How about using a stored procedure that sets Status field in K2].[Server].[ProcInst] to 4 (closed) . The stored procedure can be called via a SmartObject from a SmartForm rule, ¿right?

Thank you in advance.

Best regards,

Carlos.

Hi Carlos

Writing stored procedures against the K2 database and the direct manipulation of data in the K2 database is not supported, and I strongly recommend you don't do this.

A stored procedure is code of a sort in any case. I would recommend you look at creating a workflow in Visual Studio with a code event that stops or cancels workflows. This code event will only require a few lines of code.

You can do this without code and without using the untidy adding the parent process Id to the folio of the child.

Simply create a datafield (e.g. ParentProcessID) in your child process and populate that when it is spawned by the parent.

To retrieve the children, you can then use the SmartObjects under Workflow Reports - Workflow Solutions - [MyProcessName] - List Process Instances

In that method , you can set a filter on ParentProcessId passing in the parent process id and returning a list of children IPCs
