Workflow comments on document comments

crono40

Hello,

I'm using a workflow to validate documents. When users approve or reject a document, they can comment it. I would like to get this comment and put then in the comment of the document.

I supposed i can get workflow comments with the [bpm:comment] property but i don't know how i can create a comment in a document, using Javascript.

Waiting for your help.

Thanks

I am assuming that you have some custom property on document for storing comment.

Using javascript api you can easily achieve that.

Please refer the link http://wiki.alfresco.com/wiki/4.0_JavaScript_API and section "Modifying and Creating API".

It may help to you.

Hum not really yogeshPJ

In fact I want to retrieve the task comments to put it in the Document comment (in Alfresco Share). However, i saw that we can't get back task comments in workflow context (related this <a href="http://forums.alfresco.com/forum/developer-discussions/workflow/problems-accessing-bpmcomment-variable-transition-script">post</a> ).

I updated my workflow file definition (parallel-review.bpmn20.xml) .I know how to create comment on document using JS but for the moment, I'm just trying to put the comment in the document description.

var taskId = "activiti$" + task.getId();
bpm_package.children[j].properties['cm:description']+= workflow.getTask(taskId).getProperties()["bpm:comment"];
‍‍‍‍

and this

 <expression>
   comment = "";
 if (token.comments.size() > 0)
   comment = token.comments.get(0).message;
 </expression>
 <variable name="comment" access="write"/>
 bpm_package.children[j].properties['cm:description'] = comment;
 bpm_package.children[j].save();
‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

But it still not working. Someone could help me please ? Thanks a lot.

It seems that comment value is not assigned properly.
can you please try below code ?

<expression>
comment = "";
if (token.comments.size() > 0)
comment = token.comments.get(0).message;
</expression>
<variable name="comment" access="write"/>
var doc= bpm_package.children[j];
doc.properties['cm:description'] = comment;
doc.save();

I tried with your example but still not working. I had the following error message :

org.activiti.engine.ActivitiException: Exception while invoking TaskListener: Exception while invoking TaskListener: 05110042 Failed to execute supplied script: 05110041 ReferenceError: "token" n'est pas défini (AlfrescoJS#36)

My approve task looks like this :

<userTask id="approved" name="Document Approved"
            activiti:formKey="wf:approvedParallelTask" >
            <documentation>
                The document was reviewed and approved.

                        {
                           if(wf_actualPercent == 100)
                           {
                                 bpm_package.children[j].properties['cm:description'] = "APPLICABLE";
                                 bpm_package.children[j].save();
                                 
                                 var doc = bpm_package.children[j];                        
                                 doc.addAspect("cm:versionable");
                                 var tmp = doc.checkout();
                                 doc = tmp.checkin("Document applicable",true);
                                 bpm_package.children[j] = doc
                           }
                        }
                        else

                        comment = token.comments.get(0).message;
