How to generate summary document based on completed workflow?

upforsin

I'd like to generate a summary document (PDF, HTML, etc.) after the workflow's finish (something similar to the workflow-details page). Do you have any clues how could it be done? Or maybe someone has already implemented a similar feature?

I heard it's easy in the APS (you have a button to generate PDF?) but I'm using Alfresco Community version...

Hi @upforsin,

With Alfresco Process Services there is the "Audit Log" when reviewing a process & this will produce something like what you want. There is also an audit API.

Activiti has the auditLogBean which "generate(s) audit logs in .pdf format for a completed process instance or a completed task" - looks like this might do what you want?

Cheers,

Thank you for your reply @EddieMay.

With the APS, I can call

GET api/enterprise/process-instances/{process-instance-id}/audit-log

but in the community version, this GET request (and all other requests related to "audit") is unavailable.

Do you think if I create ServiceTask with an expression similar to

${auditLogBean.generateProcessInstancePdf(execution, 'My first process instance audit log', true, 'myFieldName')}

, it will generate a PDF somewhere in the document library?

Hi @upforsin,

The documentation says, "You can view the audit logs from the My Tasks app by clicking the "Audit Log" link when viewing the details of a completed process or task. When doing so the following two rest calls are made."

Process instance audit log:
GET app/rest/process-instances/{process-instance-id}/audit
Task audit log:
GET app/rest/tasks/{task-id}/audit

I'm not sure if these rest calls have been exposed? So you may have to do as you suggest.

HTH,

Hi @EddieMay,

In the Actviti alone it might be a solution, but in the Alfresco Community 6.1.x with the embedded Activiti 5.22.0, according to my knowledge, there is no such a thing as "My Task app". As this is only an embedded engine, I guess I cannot use these REST calls.
