Automation Scripts within Conditional Expressions to control business logic | Maximo

We are very well aware of these Attribute Launch Point, Object Launch Point, Action Launch Point but today we are going to discuss Custom Condition Launch Point.

Sometimes complex business logic involving conditions that need to be evaluated and cannot be covered in simple conditional expression, therefore we need to evaluate conditions within automation script to take the result into conditional expression.

Its a simple 3 steps process:
1. An automation script to handle all business logic
2. Conditional Expression to have this automation in it.
3. use this conditional expression wherever you want.

1. for instance:
lets create a Custom Condition Launch Point ISWONEW
script name is CHECKIFWONEW
Object: WORKORDER
Launchpoint Type: CUSTOMCONDITION
script:

evalresult = onadd

# evalresult = False or True
evalresult is an implicit variable in Custom Conditional Launch Point

2. Conditional Expression; create new
Name: ISWONEW , name as created a launchpoint in step 1
Expression: CHECKIFWONEW:ISWONEW (scriptname:launchpoint)
Class: com.ibm.tivoli.maximo.script.ScriptCustomCondition
