I have a process flow (#1) and in it, I need to trigger another process flow (#2) and
pass some variables for process flow #2 to use. How do I do this?

Hi Ludy - Are you using "classic" processflow, or the new LPA?

You should be able to use a "WorkObject" node in flow #1 to do this, or you could use an AGS call to WFWK.(1,2,or 3). The WorkObject option is simpler, but on "classic" pflow I think you can only do a WorkObject call to a service, wheras on LPA you can call a process directly. Within the WorkObject node, you have the ability to pass variables from the first flow to the second flow/service.

Attached are a couple of screenshots for the WorkObject setup in LPA Designer for Landmark flows. Classic should be similar.

Ludy, I would recommend using the "Custom Activity" node with the "Flow Runner" activity. It will do exactly what you are asking...

Thank you John and Woozy for your replies. I tried the WorkObject node and was able to make it
work.
