Pause tulip WI, and Start a new one in App

1

Hello, i would like to do the following

  1. Pause the current WI in the tulip app and save the data inputed up to that point
  2. Open a new tulip WI and complete the steps in that WI
  3. Return to the paused WI and continue data entry

Does anyone know if this is possible?

We do something similar to pass app variable between apps in a suite - essentially on exit/cancel you need to store the variables to tables data somewhere, and then on resume you need to import them from that “somewhere” and write the data to the various variables where needed.

We are using a complex delimited string (so we can pass individual values and arrays between apps) and saving to a custom field in the users table, but there are many possibilities.

You could probably even get more sophisticated to make the import/export more flexible and construct the export/import triggers to build an object list, then use the maptotext and arrayindexof functions to locate the target values by variable name so they can be order-agnostic between export and import when constructing and parsing the delimited string.
