Is it possible to set the value of a Record Producer variable, from the code within the RP?

[ldave]

When we're managing variables from within a record producer, we can access the variable content with "producer.variableName", so we can set something else based on a variable value, i.e.

current.category = "something" + producer.variableName;

The above is just an example but we all know it works and that's how we're suppose to do things.

But let's suppose we need to WRITE in a variable that is on the record producer itself, with a server side code (so no client script) at the time of the record generation, how can we do it? (aside from using a before business rule, I mean, from within the Record Producer code).

producer.variableName = "something";

Will not work.

Nor will current.variables.variableName

Nor will using .setValue instead of the = sign.

Is this something doable at all?

Thanks.

We set the assignment group on cases directly in the producer. It is hard coded. Assuming the Record Producer is configured for a specific table you should be able to access the current object.

For example:

current.assignment_group = "<sys_id>";

EDIT:
We do not have assignment_group as a variable on the Record Producer.

I've asked to support too, and it doesn't appear to be this possibility at all.
