Adding an action task node

An action task contains rule action statements to be executed as part of the ruleflow.

Procedure

  1. Add an action task node to the ruleflow in one of the following ways:
    • Hover over the node or the transition after which you want to add the action task node and click the Add action task Add action task icon icon in the toolbar.
    • Click the Add action task Add action task icon icon in the ruleflow toolbar and connect the node to the ruleflow.
  2. (Optional) Click the default name of the node to edit it.
  3. Click the Edit actions Edit actions icon next to Actions to edit the action task.
    Enter the actions for the task in the editor. For example:
    set the total of 'the rental agreement' to the price of 'the rental agreement' best offer
    + the coverage subtotal of 'the rental agreement';
    You can write the rule statement with the rule language or the advanced rule language. For more information about writing actions with the advanced rule language, see ARL task model examples.
  4. (Optional) Define initial actions and final actions for the action task node.
    Initial actions apply before the action task is processed and final actions apply after the action task is processed. You define initial and final actions in the same way as you define actions for an action task.
