Hi All,

I need to create a worklist by filtering upon the element of the container value. I guess this is NOT possible.

Is there any way other than writting a code?

I was going through a few topics here and found that one of the way to do it is by involving the container value in the description and then filtering your worklist on the description.
However, I do not have the priviledge of doing so, as my description does not contain the value on which I want to filter and also I cant change the description as it is the Production environment and also I want to filter on the existing process instances. Even if i was able to change the description it will only come into effect for the new instaces created and not on the old one.

Can anyone help me on this.

I have MQWF v3.6 on Solaris.

Thanks,
Pats

You should avoid the use of container items when processing a list. You are going to add extra overhead for each access of the container.

The trick to use would be to put the container item in the Description field then use that field for your sorting. This trick does not incur the additional overhead you would get by direct container access.

As I see you can not do this, I guess you do not have a choice. BUT I would highly recommend a redesign as this is going to be a performance issue.

Global Container can be used to hold data accessible through out the entire process. There are restrictions on the definition, I.E. must be flat, no nesting no arrays. It can be used in queries, so this might help you.
