I am testing out a vanilla version of Five and I am trying to recreate some of the functionality that we have currently in 4.6.11.  Specifically the advance destinations (ie. plan per slot) and being able to execute numerous events within an activity.  It looks like I have to create numerous steps and then try to loop through a Reference created from a SmartObject that produces a list.  Is it possible to update the Reference as I execute steps in the loop?  

Attached is a visual of what is done currently.  At a high-level, I will be executing a stored proc which joins various LOB tables and uses logic to produce a list of users and associated data to assign tasks to.  Before I assign the client tasks a record is created for each task in another LOB table to store the "Workflow Activity History".  I used to store this ID in an Activity Level Data Field and use it in a future event within the activity but those don't exist anymore.  I need to be figure out how to save the ID of the history table that is created in the Reference so that I can update the record after the task is completed.   

Additionally it looks like there is no way to access the Activity Instance Destination ID anymore (until the task has been completed), which was an important value used in several of our LOB tables.  

It seems that Five has really "dumbed down" most of the functionality that we had previously and will require implementing A LOT of additional steps and creative thinking to achieve some of the advanced features that were available!

Thanks in advance for any recommendations/advice!
