APAR status
Closed as program error.
Error description
When you try to use bpmext from within a data change event, an exception occurs stating that bpmext is not defined. However, if a boundary event occurs before the data change event, the bpmext is defined and no exception occurs. PRODUCTS AFFECTED IBM Business Process Manager (BPM) IBM BPM Express IBM Business Automation Workflow
Local fix
Add a button that has no connections so a boundary event doesn't occur when it is programmatically clicked and set its visibility to Hidden so it is not displayed in the coach page. Also, add the following line to the "On load" event: me.click();
Problem summary
No additional information is available.
Problem conclusion
A fix that ensures the same variables in a script step are present and available in a data change event will be available in a future release of IBM Business Automation Workflow.
