Is there another way valid values for arguments?

Question

Hi, I need to know if when you are using a presentation that change the valid values of the argument dinamically is possible to change valid values?
There is an argumentValidValues() but when I put:
array = argumentValidValues()
nothing changes, does any one know if this is possible or if there is another way to do it?
Thanks in advance

Answer 1

You can refresh the valid values for an attribute (typically shown in a combo dropdown) in a BPM Object's presentation if you invoke the logic:
// note that this logic has to have double
// quotes surrounding the attribute's name
refreshValidValues("customerName")
This assumes that the attribute (customerName in this example) has its valid values derived from a "dynamic method" instead of a "static list".
When the logic shown above is run, the method associated with the attribute is automatically run and you should see your values in your combo drop dow get refreshed.
Please be careful to include the double quote characters in the logic. You'll be tempted to type:
// this logic will NOT work because it does not have the double quotes
refreshValidValues(customerName)
This is a common mistake and will cost you a day of scratching your head while you're trying to figure out what went wrong.
Hope this helps,
