Mapping Lists into local Variables and Input Parameters

Hi there,

This idea is to enhance functionality for Lists. Today in IS we can fetch Lists eg with the "Get Records by Query" node. When we do this, we can use the output as a List to configure Loops.

Unfortunately when we have complex logic, there is no way to modularize and decouple logic into different nested Workflows/Processes that might be invoked with a passed List. This is because those Lists that we've fetched cannot be passed as a List to eg the Call Activity node. It just does not work.

I had a word with BMC via Support Case 01574141, and indeed BMC knows this. This is why I create this idea.

In my opinion there are a couple of issues with this missing feature. We are forced to have super big processes and cannot modularize our processes. We run into copy and paste same code into different processes since we cannot reuse it with the Call Activity. This is growing our maintenance effort.

So thanks for reading and hopefully you will vote for it
