Copy rows to result
Description
Copy rows to result, is a step in the Process Plugin for Process Studio Workflows. This step transfers rows of data (in memory) to the next workflow (or process entry) in a process via an internal result row set. It can be used by the Get rows from result step and by process entries that allow processing the internal result row set.
Configurations
No.
Field Name
Description
1
Step Name
Specify the name of this step as it appears in the workflow workspace
Get Variables
Description
Get Variables is a step in the Process Plugin for Process Studio Workflows. Get Variables step can read variables and convert them to fields in the stream as string values. This step can return rows or add values to input rows. To convert the Variable into a data type other than String you may use Rename Fields steps Meta-data tab.
Additionally to get system values, including command line arguments, use the Get System Info step.
Configurations
No.
Field Name
Description
1
Step name
Specify the name of the step as it appears in the workflow workspace. This name has to be unique in a single workflow.
2
Name
Specify the name of a field to store a particular variable value.
3
Variable
You may enter variables as complete strings; for example, you can specify: ${java.io.tmpdir}/tempfile.txt and it will be expanded to /tmp/tempfile.txt on Unix-like systems. Or you may choose a variable from the list (Ctrl+space).
4
Type
Specify the field type: String, Date, Number, Boolean, Integer, BigNumber, Serializable, or Binary.
5
Format
Specify the format of the field after the type has been determined.
6
Length
Specify length of the field.
- For Number: Total number of significant figures in a number;
- For String: total length of string;
- For Date: length of printed output of the string (for example, entering 4 would only return the year).
7
Precision
Specify precision,
- For Number: Number of floating point digits.
- Not used for String, Date, or Boolean.
8
Currency
Specify currency format to interpret numbers with currency symbols. For example, $10,000.00 or E5.000,00.
9
Decimal
Specify decimal separator:
- a period (".") or comma (",") for number values.
10
Group
Specify a group indicator e,g to use a period (".") or comma (",") for number values.
11
Trim Type
Specify Trim Type for the field before processing: select either none, left, right, or both (left and right).
Get files from result
Description
Get files from result is a step in the Process Plugin for Process Studio Workflows. Every time a file gets processed, used or created in a workflow or a process, the details of the file, the process entry, the step, etc. are captured and added to an internal result set when the option 'Add file names to result' is set, e.g. in a Text File Output step. You can access this file information using this step.
Configurations
No.
Field Name
Description
1
Step name
Specify the name of the step as it appears in the workflow workspace. This name has to be unique in a single workflow.
Get rows from result
Description
Get rows from result is a step in the Process Plugin for Process Studio Workflows. This step returns rows that were previously generated by another workflow in a process and were passed on to this step using the Copy rows to result step. You can enter the meta-data of the fields you're expecting from the previous workflow in a process.
Configurations
No.
Field Name
Description
1
Step name
Specify the name of this step as it appears in the workflow workspace.
2
Fieldname
Specify the name of the field that contains the rows from the previous result.
3
Type
Specify the type of data.
4
Length
Specify length of the field.
- For Number: Total number of significant figures in a number;
- For String: total length of string;
- For Date: length of printed output of the string (for example, entering 4 would only return the year).
6
Precision
Specify precision,
- For Number: Number of floating point digits.
- Not used for String, Date, or Boolean.
Set Variables
Description
Set Variables is a step in the Process Plugin for Process Studio Workflows. Set Variables step can set field values to variables in a process or in the virtual machine. It accepts one (and only one) row of data to set the value of a variable.

Description |
|
1 |
Step name |
Specify the name of the step as it appears in the workflow workspace. This name has to be unique in a single workflow. |

Apply formatting |
When this option is set, it formats the value (date, numbers etc.) according to the format options. Otherwise no formatting is done. |
|
3 |
Field Name |
Specify the name of the field that is used to set a variable. |

4 |
Variable Name |
Provide the name of the variable to set (without ${...} or %%...%% sigils) |
|
5 |
Variable scope type |
Define the scope of the variable, possible options are:
|
|
6 |
Default value |
Provide a default value for the variable to set. This is used in case no fields value is received. |
Set files in result
Description
Set files in result, is a step in the Process Plugin for Process Studio Workflows. This step allows you to set filenames in the internal result files of a workflow. Subsequent process entries can then use this information as it routes the list of files to the result files stream. The result files set may be used by the Get files from result step or some process entries that can process the list of result files. For example, the Mail process entry can use this list of files to attach to a mail, so perhaps you don't want all files sent, but only a certain selection. For this, you can create a workflow that filters and sets exactly those files you want to attach.
