CHILD_CHANGE_OBJECT_STATE_CHANGE
ChangeService2Event
The state was changed on child change object. The event target contains the parent change object and have the child as a secondary target
PARENT_CHANGE_OBJECT_STATE_CHANGE
ChangeService2Event
The state was changed on parent change object. The event target contains the child change object and have the parent as a secondary target.
isRelatedParentsInStates
WorkflowProcessHelper API
Looks up the related parent change objects and determines if each one is in one of the given states.
isRelatedChildrenInStates
WorkflowProcessHelper API
Looks up the related child change objects and determines if each one is in one of the given states.
setResolutionDate
WorkflowProcessHelper API
This method sets the resolution date of a change object. It does not set the resolution state.
closeChangeChildren
WorkflowProcessHelper API
Looks up the children of the given change object and closes them with the given states.
closeChangeParents
WorkflowProcessHelper API
Looks up the parents of the given change object and closes them with the given states.
