Work Item Attributes

Work Item Attributes are values that can be assigned to work items from process data. They can then be displayed for the work list entries for the work items, and can be sorted on.

When Work Item Attributes are listed in the Mapper, you can use the Work List Facade to define a set of display labels, and assign them to the predefined work item attribute set.

In the Work List Facade editor, the attributes are sorted on the numeric values in their name: for example, attribute0, attribute1,attribute2. See Creating a Work List Facade.

You can define display values for any of the 40 work item attributes. Work item attributes that have display values defined appear at the top of the list of attributes, above those with no display values assigned. See Setting the Display Label for Work Item Attributes.

Note: As work lists may be used to display work items from many different TIBCO BPM Enterprise applications simultaneously, the use of work item attributes must be coordinated between those applications.
