You can configure an ASPX form as the Detailed View page of the Work Item List Control. This topic describes the steps to configure the ASPX form.

To Configure the ASPX Form as a Detailed View Page

Select the Human Activity.
Click the Delivery Channels Property. A new window opens, as shown below.
Right-click the WebWorkList to display the context menu with the Add Instance of Aspx form option, as shown below.
Click the Add Instance of Aspx form option. In the configuration settings fields that are displayed, specify the URL of the ASPX form, as shown below. You can specify the Relative or absolute Url in the text box.
If you are accessing the Work Item List Control from the EC Site, then the CustomAspxPageDefault.aspx page should reside in the BPMUITemplates\Default\Repository\Site folder.
Set the Aspxform1 as the default instance by right-clicking Aspxform1 and selecting the Set as default instance option from the context menu.
Click the Save and Save Channels buttons.
Following are the steps and code samples for the Custom Aspx form to appear as Work Item detail view.
Create the CustomAspxPageDefault.aspx and CustomAspxPageDefault.aspx.cs in the BPMUITemplates\Default\Repository\Site folder.
In the CustomAspxPageDefault.aspx.cs file we will get the work item details using the Skelta.HWS.WorkListChannel.Web.WebWorkItemAdapter object. The Url respective to Work Item controls are secured. The Secured Url is getting build when we select a row from the Work Item list control using the WebWorkItemAdapter object. In the Custom Aspx page, we need to access the work item related details from the Secured url. The Processing of Secured url is achieved through the WebWorkItemAdapter object.

function RefreshWorkItemList()

{

if(typeof(self.opener) != 'undefined')

{

self.opener.RefreshGridfromdetwindow();

window.close();

}

else

{

top.RefreshGridfromdetwindow();

// The Url respective to Workitem controls are secured.

// The Secured Url is getting build when we select a row from the Workitem list control using the WebWorkItemAdapter object.

// In the Custom Aspx page we need to access the workitem related details from the Secured url.

// The Processing of Secured url is achieved through the WebWorkItemAdapter object.

Skelta.HWS.WorkListChannel.Web.WebWorkItemAdapter adapter = new Skelta.HWS.WorkListChannel.Web.WebWorkItemAdapter();

//ProcessWebChannelRequest Method is used to Decrypt the Securedurl passed to the Detail Page and

//get the details related to Workitem like Applicationname,workflowname,executionid,currentworkitem etc

adapter.ProcessWebChannelRequest();

//adapter.CurrentWorkItem will give you the entire selected Workitem object details.

wItem = adapter.CurrentWorkItem;

//adapter.ApplicationName will give you the application name.

_application = adapter.ApplicationName;

//adapter.WorkflowName will give you the workflow name.

_workflow = adapter.WorkflowName;

//This is getting the Workitem id from the Workitem object

_workitemId = wItem.Id;

//adapter.CurrentWorkItem.Subject will give you the value of the Subject defined for the activity

_workitemSubject = adapter.CurrentWorkItem.Subject;

//adapter.CurrentWorkItem.Subject will give you the value of the activity display name

_activityname = adapter.CurrentWorkItem.CurrentActivity.ActionDisplayName;

//adapter.CurrentWorkItem.ExecutionId will give you the Workflow Execution Id

_instanceid = adapter.CurrentWorkItem.ExecutionId.ToString();

//To Get the Possible outputs defined for the selected activity

System.Collections.Generic.Dictionary<string, string> GetStatusList = new System.Collections.Generic.Dictionary<string, string>();

GetStatusList = ((Skelta.HWS.IHWSActivityProvider)adapter.CurrentWorkItem.HWSActivity.CurrentActivityHandler).GetPossibleStatusList();

foreach (string kvp in GetStatusList.Keys)

{

ddlStatus.Items.Add(new ListItem(kvp,GetStatusList[kvp]));

}

btnSubmit.Click += new EventHandler(btnSubmit_Click);

}

/// <summary>

/// Event for handling the Submit button

/// </summary>

/// <param name="sender"></param>

/// <param name="e"></param>

protected void btnSubmit_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)

{

string status = ddlStatus.SelectedItem.Value;

//Submitting the Workitem

wItem.Submit("WebWorkList", status , "", "");

//Refreshing the Workitem grid after submitting the workitem

Page.ClientScript.RegisterClientScriptBlock(this.GetType(), "RefreshGrid", "<script language='javascript'>RefreshWorkItemList();</script>");

}

Now, when you click any row in the Work items list, you will find this aspx page being displayed as the detailed view.
