Workflow Handling from Automation Script | IBM Maximo

Initiate a workflow from Automation Script. 

from psdi.server import MXServer

mxs = MXServer.getMXServer()

wfstart = mxs.lookup('WORKFLOW')

wfstart.initiateWorkflow('CSPREIMB',mbo)

 

-------------------------

or define a function in your script and call it whenever needed as below:

Function Defination:

def startwf(a):
   actionSet = MXServer.getMXServer().getMboSet("action", a.getUserInfo());
   sqf = SqlFormat("action = :1")
   sqf.setObject(1, "action", "action", "STWFEUNRI")
   actionSet.setWhere(sqf.format())
   actionSet.reset()
   actionSet.getMbo(0).executeAction(a)

 

Function Call:

startwf(MboVariable)

 2. Stop an active workflow from Automation Script. 

from psdi.server import MXServer

mxs = MXServer.getMXServer().lookup('WORKFLOW') 

wfstop = mxs.getActiveInstances(mbo)

         wfstart.getMbo(0).stopWorkflow('Stopped')
