E10 BPM to invoke a BO Method to Update a different Table

Glenn,

Good intentions aside, whoever designed this approach with the idea that you could call BO/Methods without Code may indeed be a diabolical and twisted soul who is probably still laughing at the thought of us using it. It does work, but it’s so painful and laborious to use, the time spent building one you could have taught yourself to write code from scratch. Ok, maybe I’m venting a little, but it’s not a fun tool. You’ll need to get a dataset to work with, either by GetByID, Rows, something, setup your variables, datasets, plus any other that may apply etc… I’ve muddled through a couple out of curiosity, but decided to take up cutting myself for a hobby instead. So here’s a working example that i made. Whenever a row is added to a UD table, it looks up a part in part entry (data validation done elsewhere) and updates a checkbox. Simple, but it works and should demonstrate the elements needed… This is for Version 10.1.400.11, should work for any 10.1 point release.
