Hello all:

:bye:

Anyone have a suggested method to allow one flow to either run when a personnel action is entered OR from another flow with a work object.

I guess I was thinking it might be nice to just have one set of code to manage. So I was thinking if I created the flow with everything that it needs to run from a personnel action but then created a branch at the beginning to determine what started the flow I could have one flow that could run either way?

When a flow is started in another flow through a work object node how does it know the information it needs?
Can I include variables from the first flow in the second flow?
How should I get around the AGS call to update PA53?
My flow would call the records from the action however, I will need to change where it pulls its information when it is run from within another flow?

Suggestions? If I can't find a simplesolution I will just create the full flow and then add the nodes I need to the other flows instead of using a work object?...

More to add...

When a work object is used to start a flow - how do you tell the work object he Employee# for the flow? When you create a flow that starts off of a personnel action it knows the <!Employee> variable....

However, what will tell the WorkObject the variables like Company and Employee#?

I am not 100% this is what you are asking but we have our RD30 creation flow kicked off by several different actions. One kicks off a process that is just a set of 2 work object nodes to start two different processes. The first process is the HR review of the rehire personel action and the second one kicks off the RD30 creation process. The variables are passed from the personnel action that kicks off the work object. It has been running for a few years now so my memory on it is a little fuzzy.
