Create a Record Event

Create Record Event

The Create Record Event automates the process of creating records dynamically within the system. This event supports two types of record creation:

  1. Create Record – For dynamic records in configurable windows.
  2. Create Static Record – For predefined records like Department, Role, etc.

Overview

This event enables users to configure record creation by selecting a menu and window, defining field values, and optionally enabling bulk creation. The data for fields can be:

  • Static – Manually entered values.
  • Variable – Derived from workflow variables.
  • Carried from Previous Nodes – Data passed from earlier steps.
  • User Input – Prompting users during execution.

Configuring a Create Record Event

Create Record (Dynamic)

To create records dynamically:

  1. Select Menu & Window: Choose the target module and window.
  2. Configure Fields: Define how each field's value is set.
  3. Enable Bulk Create (Optional): Carry a list of data from previous nodes.
  4. Save & Connect: Link the event with other workflow events.

Example:

  • Menu: User Management
  • Window: User Registration
  • Fields:
    • Name → User Input
    • Role → Carried from Previous Node

Outcome: A new user record is dynamically created based on workflow inputs.

Create Static Record

For static records (e.g., Department, Role):

  1. Select Source Type: Choose a predefined record type.
  2. Enter Field Data: Define static values for each field.
  3. Save & Connect: Link it to the workflow.

Example:

  • Source Type: Department
  • Fields:
    • Department Name → Sales
    • Code → S001

Outcome: A predefined record is created with the given values.

Summary

The Create Record Event simplifies record creation by allowing dynamic or static data entry, bulk creation, and seamless workflow integration. Configure once and automate record management effortlessly!
