Set property map
The fifth step in defining a workflow subscription is to map workflow data
fields to object properties. For example, your workflow could have a data field
for Employee Name that you want to map to the Creator property of the object.
These restrictions apply to property mapping for an automatically launched subscription:
- You can only map properties to data fields with the same data type. For
example, you can map a string property (such as "Name") to a string
data field, but you cannot map an integer property to a floating data field.
- You cannot map an object value property to a datafield. That is, if the
value of a property is another object, you cannot map that property to a workflow
data field.
- GUIDS cannot be mapped to datafields.
To map properties to data fields
- Select the desired workflow Data Field Name from the drop-down list.
- Select the desired object Property Name from
the drop-down list.
- Click the Add to Property Map icon
to add the map entry to the Property Map list.
- If you need to remove a property map, select the item in the Property
Map list, and then click the Remove Selected Property Map icon.
- Proceed to Set security.
