Create Entity with activityManager in Workflow?

Hi,

I want to create a task inside a workflow but don’t know how, because I think I need the activity manager?!

Can you give me an example on how to do it?
Perhaps it’s doable with a “create_entity” configuration…

Thanks and

regards

I just wrote an CreateActivityEntity workflow action. Don’t know if it’s best practice but works for me.

If somebody of you (especially the core devs is interested in this feature, I will add it to the WorkflowBundle with a PR

Hello, cardiac.

It’s quite good solution for this case.

Another solution is to use internal function addActivityTarget (you can find this code at entity cache):

/**
* Associates the given entity with this entity
*
* @param object $target Any configurable entity that can be associated with this type of entity
* @return object This object
*/
public function addActivityTarget($target)
{
...
}

Hi.

Just create a task like this:

- @create_entity: class: OroCRM\Bundle\TaskBundle\Entity\Task attribute: $the_task

1 2 3 4

- @create_entity:     class: OroCRM\Bundle\TaskBundle\Entity\Task     attribute: $the_task

and then call the method:

- @call_method: parameters: object: $the_task method: addActivityTarget method_parameters: [$some_entity]

1 2 3 4 5 6

- @call_method:     parameters:         object: $the_task         method: addActivityTarget         method_parameters: [$some_entity]
