Question
Apply DataTransform to each element in DataPage (List)
Hi everyone,
Given:
1. Work- class with DataTransform
2. Data- class with D_PageList (pxResultCount > 1)
Here's the screenshot:
The problem is that newTest DT applies to Data- class. But I need to have it in Work- class to operate inside work object.
It's quite a simple task and I had believed that Pega should cope with such situation.
How can I use inside For Each Page loop DT from Primary class (Work-) and provide <current> element to that DT?
Hi,
Can you try with adding your data page (ex: D_PageList) and the its results list page (ex: D_PageList.pxResults) to Pages & Classes with corresponding classes ?
Thanks,

I already did it:
But still, Pega tries to find newTest datatransform in Data- class, not in Work- class.
Is it achievable by using DT or should I use an activity instead?
Hi,
Now I understand your requirement better. Calling DataTransform of one class (Work-) on other class's page (Data-) is not possible and its not recommended as well, because when you run the Work- DT on Data- Page, you will be able to initialize/set properties of Work- class only but not Data-.
But if your requirement is to read the data from Data- page and use it inside the Work- Data transform, you can set the required values on parameter page and pass them to Work- DT. If the no of properties you want to read from Data- is less, you can follow this approach.
Thanks,

Try this:
define tempPage of type "**-work-booking" on pages and classes.
step 1.1 = Update Page - tempPage ("Primary" page might work as well)
step 2.2 = Apply data transform. You can access Data Page properties by enabling the checkbox on step 1.
Like this?
That's almost work :)
Unfortunately, there is no way to pass D_Test123List.pxResults(<current>) into 1.1.1 as parameter :( Exception occurs
Checkbox on the 1st step also didn't help
You could store the DPage.pxResult onto a temporary page Or on the Param page itself.
PS: This is the reason why data transforms are best created under Code-Pega-List.
Accepted Solution
Eventually, I've created an activity which iterates through the data page .pxResults and calls data transform from Primary step page
Hi,
Could you please try adding the class in the "Pages & Classes" tab and use the Data page name with reference of the Page name given by you.
