Todos

Introduction

The connector can automatically create todos that are displayed in the Todo App integrated into the base connector. These todos indicate errors that occurred during an export process.

Each todo is associated with a specific product, allowing errors to be clearly organized and reviewed. When the job that created a todo runs again without errors, the corresponding todo is automatically removed.

Todos cannot be created manually, but they can be deleted manually within the app if needed.

Todo App

You can access the app in the SAWS-Connector navigation tree:

In the todo app you will either see todos that were already cretated or the todo app is empty. All todos are grouped by their related products. As statet in the introduction, it is not possible to manually create todos in the todo app.
However you can write todos on products / objects using conditions in your export. This will be explained later in this article.

 

 

With “Edit” you can access a list of todos that are maintained on the product. The current filter will get applied also for this list.
In this List you can now see the details for all todos related to this product. Also you have to option to edit the product / item itself. If you have fixed the todo, you can mark them as “done”, so you have an overview.

 

How Todos are created

Todos are created only through exports. You cannot create todos in the app manually.
If a job gets an error, this error will automatically create an todo entry on the product / item where the error occured. The prerequisite for this is that the Job is allowed to write todo entries. You can check this here:

Also you can find here the deprecated (legacy) todo list, which is still visible on each job

 
There is an option to let a Job create customized todos. You can achive this with conditions in our format plugins. A documentation on how to configure conditions will be explained in this article

Setting conditions

 
When you have configured your condition, you can then select the todo type

The same values, that are used for the Log entry in the export will also ocurre in the todo. Example below (with an “always true”-condition for demo)
