Dataslot columns

In addition to the default columns, you can add dataslots as columns by selecting the Tasks Column checkbox in the Access tab of the Dataslot properties dialog box in Progress Developer Studio for OpenEdge. For more information, refer to the "Setting the Dataslot Access" section of the OpenEdge Getting Started: Developing BPM Applications with Developer Studio.

These dataslot columns are sortable; that means, you can sort the contents of this page based on this column header. For more information, see Business Process Portal User's Guide. This helps to quickly locate instances based on the application-specific dataslot values.
