Add SmartObject Methods

Adding SmartObject Methods

Various services can be accessed in K2 blackpearl, enabling the user to create SmartObjects by accessing service methods and objects applicable to their business from back end systems. These services display the definition of the back end system. The Add Method allows the user to create and configure SmartObject methods in K2 for Visual Studio or K2 Studio using service instances and objects from other systems, successfully reflecting the business information. Properties of the service objects can be mapped to existing K2 SmartObject properties in Add New Service Method. A combination of services can be used to create composite SmartObjects.

The Add button is displayed in the SmartObject Method toolbar when the Advanced Mode has been selected on the SmartObject Configuration screen.
