When a constituent object in a conceptual object undergoes any change, and its parent transaction is pending in the external workflow, the parent transaction refreshes to show the changes in the constituent object to the external approver.

In the external system, the transaction refreshes after checking the refreshTransaction flag associated to each conceptual object workflow transaction. In the parent transaction this flag is false. In further transactions associated to this conceptual object, the flag is set to true, indicating that the entire transaction must be refreshed when the external approver accesses it.

The methods that use the flag refreshTransaction are available in the class HookInput in the com.datafoundations.onedata.hook package. For more information, see webMethods OneData Java API Reference.
