Fire a BPM from a custom button

One of a few ways, either have it call a method such as update and check a box or something. The other would be to use a data directive and change a value in a column with the button. You could also create an updateable dashboard and call the dashboard from the button and update the fields through that.

Subject: [Vantage] Fire a BPM from a custom button



How would I go about firing a BPM on a custom button? Basically, I want a BPM Data Form to open when a button is clicked, giving an input window for a couple UD fields. I know how to create the BPM & Data Form and I have the button added to my form, but I don't know how to format the Event Wizard or what method to fire the BPM on.

Currently, the button is coded as follows:

private void DieDetails_Click(object sender, System.EventArgs args)
{
MessageBox.Show("test");
}

Which does display the message, as expected. What would I need to replace "MessageBox.Show("test");" with to fire a BPM?

In case it is important, the button is being added to the Resource Group Maintenance screen, Resource panel, and is intended to launch a BPM Data Form to update fields in the Resource table.

This is for Epicor 10.0.700.2, by the way.
