BPM Method directive menu item in kinetic

[AndrewK (Andrew)]

Hi guys, I need some help.

I’ve been using the classic BPM method and data directives. However, quite recently, epicor support attached a screenshot from Kinetic and mentioned that there are some warnings for certain method directives. I inspected those method directives in the classic version and didn’t see any issues or warnings. I’ve been told that BPMs in Kinetic are not trustworthy, but I want to check them out.

The issue is that I can’t configure the menu item properly to launch BPMs in Kinetic. I believe that in order to launch the form in Kinetic, it must have a URL filled in, I assume, it launches the BE service, but what should that URL be?

For BAQ, it’s studio/baq, but what is the URL for BPMs? I tried some random string (as on the image above) but obviously it didn’t work.

Try: studio/bpm

Here’s my menu:

For me… METHOD Directives opens in Classic by default (see above image for “Form to Use”.

But DATA Directive opens in Kinetic:

All settings are the same except “Form to Use” is set as “User Choice”.

I don’t know what that is based on - they are very similar to BPMs in classic.

Maybe they were intending to say that you can’t expect all your BPMs from classic to work on Kinetic without modification?
