Changing Business Entity

0

Hi Thomas,

I have no idea, why I doesn't work. I'm guessing that the data is updated using your action just fine, but afterwards the default mechanism overwrite the value again. I also had a look at the SDK and changing the Company Id is not supported. So I wouldn't do it, even if it worked.

I have two other approaches in mind:
1) Use an "active" flag to track whether someone is in a company. Perhaps you could even add a start and end date. This could be applied to an item list or one workflow instance per person. This would also reflect the changes, and there will probably be a time, when you need to track this. :)

2) If you don't need the security options offered by business entities, you could use a custom field. Just create a workflow instances using the same business entity for everyone and define the 'real' business entity using a choose field.

Best regards,
Daniel
