Change Task creation via workflow script

Arthur7 · ‎09-05-2016

Hello,

I want to create the change tasks creation via workflow (run script activity).
How to check if previous record has the completed state??

an example: I have an additional table which contains the information for the purpose of task creation, I have 3 columns ( Order, Short_description, Assignment Group).

I want to create the change tasks based on information from the table. The issue is, that the task should be created, if the previous task has the state = completed.
Does anyone know how to achieve it?

Thanks in advance for any answers!!!

As I said if you are using run script activity to create a task. Use scratchpad variable as shown.

var task= new GlideRecord('sc_task');

task.initialize();

..

workflow.scratchpad.taskID=task.insert();

Now in your next activity before creating a task, check if the previous task is completed or not

var task= new GlideRecord('sc_task');

task.get(workflow.scratchpad.taskID);

if(task.state=='completed choice value'){

//insert task here

}
