Setting the Sorting and Value Bindings for Custom Inbox Business Data Columns
The Update Task Client Options wizard attempts to modify the sorting and value bindings configuration for custom inbox columns that display task business data.
*The sorting value is used in the search results table column "Sort" property, which defines a binding expression for sorting
*The value binding is used anywhere in the controls to display the value of business data field
The following table shows an example of sorting and binding values:
Business Data Column
Standard Searches (Value and Sorting)
Indexed Searches
order.orderDetails.
orderNo
#{row.taskData.order.
orderDetails.orderNo}
#{row.taskData["orderNo"]}
Where "orderNo" is the database field name given to the business data field in the index configuration.
If the task application has been customized, the wizard may not be able to make these changes. If you have customized packages, locate these sorting and binding values and change them as noted above.
The binding expression to be used for either Task Info or Task Business data fields can be viewed on the Data Binding page of the Properties view; to do so:
1. Open the default view of the Task Inbox Results portlet (or equivalent customized portlet) in the task editor.
2. In the Bindings view, select Managed Beans > [TaskName][PortletName]/default > Task Search Provider > Run-time Info > [ColumnName].
3. Click the Data Binding page of the Properties view.
