Hi Everyone,

I have two task in my process. In first task i used grid for candidate information like name, address, contact & selected status. And second task for candidate details for single candidate whose selected status is "selected". In my process if 3 candidates are selected then 3 task will be generated for 3 selected candidates. Please give me suggestion. My code is as follow

Code: Select all

$taskId     = '72278902357eb74f0b755a0019340838';
$processId = @@PROCESS; 

$grid = @=form1_grid;

$rows = count($grid);
for ($i=1; $i <= $rows; $i++) {
	
	$name = $grid[$i]["name"];
	$contact_no = $grid[$i]["contact_no"];
	$status = $grid[$i]["status"];
	
	if($status == 'Selected'){
		
		$caseUID = PMFNewCase($processId, $taskId);
		@=candidate_name = $name;
		@=contact_no = $contact_no;
		
	if ($caseUID) {
      
      executeQuery("UPDATE APPLICATION SET APP_STATUS='TO_DO' WHERE APP_UID='$caseUID'");
      
    }
	}
}

There are two ways to handle this. Either create two separate processes or use a variable number of parallel tasks. If you want a variable number of tasks, see: http://wiki.processmaker.com/3.0/Trigge ... r_of_Times


If you want two separate processes, then in the first process you have all the candidates in the grid and you select the ones you want. In the second process you do something with each candidate, so your trigger code needs to create a new case for each candidate, like this:

Code: Select all

$taskId     = '72278902357eb74f0b755a0019340838'; //set to ID of starting task in the second process
$processId = 'XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX'; //set to ID of the second process
$grid = @=form1_grid;

$rows = count($grid);
for ($i=1; $i <= $rows; $i++) {
   
   $name = $grid[$i]["name"];
   $contact_no = $grid[$i]["contact_no"];
   $status = $grid[$i]["status"];
   
   if($status == 'Selected'){
      $aVars = array(
           "name"     => $name,
           "contact_no" => $contact_no
       );
       $newCaseId = PMFNewCase($processId, @@USER_LOGGED, $taskId, $aVars);  
       if ($newCaseId) {
          executeQuery("UPDATE APPLICATION SET APP_STATUS='TO_DO' WHERE APP_UID='$newCaseId'");
       }
   }
}

Thank you for your Suggestion.....

Using the above code to generate the cases based on status it generates this n cases but it generates 1 extra case.

You probably have an empty row at the end of your grid.

You can do this if you always have an empty row at end:

Code: Select all

for ($i=1; $i < $rows; $i++) {

But it is better to check for empty value in one of your grid fields and if empty, then don't generate case.
