alert popup prompting from operation form but not from workflow

[pierrec70731455]

Hi,

I was able to prompt a popup alert

from a Campaign (nms) form button

calling an nms operation soap call method

<soapCall name="generateHierarchyForCampaign" service="nms:operation">
   <param exprIn="@id" type="int"/>
</soapCall>

and in this method the alert(...) function is called.

function nms_operation_generateHierarchyForCampaign(operationID){
...
alert("Duplicates in the Market Groups : " + duplicates.toString());
...}

My issue is that I'm unable to prompt a alert window from a workflow in a js activity script.

Does anyone have any insight regarding this?

Thank you for your help,

Pierre

Hi,

You can't alert with modal dialogs using a js activity.

You can accomplish similar by writing to the audit log with logWarning(), then pausing execution with xtk.workflow.Pause(instance.id)

Thanks,
