Workflow (connect) javascript or vbscript

Hi guys,

I need to add a attachment file to an email, the file depends on the language of the document.

Some sample code:



Dim docLang
Dim generalTerms
docLang = %{lang}

Select Case docLang
Case "en-us"
        generalTerms = "D:\1_PlanetPressDEV\workdir\sources\GeneralTermsUS.pdf"
Case else
        generalTerms = "D:\1_PlanetPressDEV\workdir\sources\GeneralTerms.pdf"
End Select

%{termsVaue} = generalTerms

${termsValue} is not recognised in the script. How can i write to a local variable within the workflow?

celox,

Please refer to the Workflow user guide for using Scripts. You also need the proper syntax to retreive the value from your local variable %{lang}.

Here is the link.

Hope this helps!

Hi JF,

Just got it to work! Thank you!

Script that works:

Dim docLang

doclang = Watch.getvariable(“lang”)

Select Case docLang
Case “en-us”
watch.setvariable “termsValue”, “D:\1_PlanetPressDEV\workdir\sources\GeneralTermsUS.pdf”
Case else
watch.setvariable “termsValue”, “D:\1_PlanetPressDEV\workdir\sources\GeneralTerms.pdf”
End Select

Hi celox,

As further information about attachments in an Email context, there are 2 tips that could help you out (if you hadn’t already figured them out):

You could also do this directly in the Designer without needing the script in Workflow, if the language field is added to your record, by the way.
