Deferring Transitions

You can create a transition condition that prevents a file transition until the XML import has occurred and data is available for updates.

To defer a transition:

  • In the Transition Properties dialog box, create conditions on the transition that triggers the import. Use these parameters:

    Op Condition
    Type Variable
    Variable Name For example, ArticleID or Cost
    Configuration Leave blank to include all configurations
    Argument Type !=.

For example, for a file in the vault with no values for ArticleId or Cost, the transition fails with a warning if the file starts the state transition before the import completes. After the import completes, the transition is successful and ArticleId and Cost are assigned values.
