Create CKS Record

 

Adds a record to the storm CKS database.

 

 

This is an alternative to creating the record directly in storm CKS. The action cell presents the fields of the record type for you to populate with string values of your choice.

Description

Form

Select the type of CKS record you want to create.

Fields Section

This displays the fields for the selected CKS record type in alphabetical order. For each field, enter a single value as a literal preceded by =, or a variable of type string. Mandatory fields are marked with an asterisk (*).

Note: one or more fields in a particular CKS record type may require you to enter a predefined value as it appears in a corresponding drop-down list in the storm CKS application. Not doing so will result in no CKS record being created and the action cell's Error exit point being taken. Consult your CKS administrator for advice on predefined values.
