Hi Community,
I've some questions about using this business process element "Open Edit Page".
Is it possible to use this element without creating activities behind it?
I would like to use this element in my process everytime I cancel or create a new record. Is it possible to open a new record page without creating a new activity?
Thanks in Advance.
Best Regards,
Pedro Pinheiro

Hi Pedro,
The only other way to achieve this that comes to mind is to add a script task in your process to send a message for the user back to the client. You can see how to do that here: https://customerfx.com/article/sending-a-message-from-server-side-c-to-…
Then, in the client, you'd have to listen for that message, check to see if it is for the current user and then navigate to the record: https://customerfx.com/article/programmatically-navigating-to-a-page-in…
In order for that to work, you'd have to add your code in the client to something that is available in all pages, so you'd add it to something like MainHeaderSchema.

Hi Pedro,
Records created in the CTI-panel upon calling the "Open edit page" element are system records and disabling these system records creation is not possible in the current application logic. But we will ask our R&D team so they could add this functionality as an improvement into their functionality development roadmap.
Thank you for helping us to make our application better!
Best regards.

Ryan Farley,
I've tried implementing your solution and it worked. Thank you.
