I'm attempting to automate the deployment of new Hardware from the Stockroom to the field.
Originally, I created my deployment form based on a single asset to meet the requirements at the time.
Now, I have need to deploy multiple single Hardware Assets at once.
I see there is a For each activity in FLOW and I'm unsure how to use it.
Task:
We are opening a new office and I need to deploy several CI class' to the site.
Example:
New site needs three computers deployed.
I have a custom Flow Action that will change the Stockroom Hardware and assign it to the person on the form.
It updates it to Assigned To (person), removes Stockroom, changes the State to In Use, and adds Cost Center to the CI.
The form currently uses an On Change script to add the CI Serial Number and Ci Model Cost to the form.
Now, I'd like to use a List Collector to select available Hardware.
Then I figured to use the For Each activity to deploy each item in the LC and track Serial Number and Cost in flow variables.
Something like this
once the For each is complete, then update the VO record to Cost and or Serial numbers to the ticket variables.
My first crack at this fail.
I also saw this post, but can't figure out how to use the select values.
Has anyone does this already and would share how to get this done, before I drive myself crazy.
I'm thinking I should do a json parse step, to get the individual items and then do the for each.
This is the first time I've ever used list collectors/arrays to do this.
