Is it possible to loop through individual items using lookupObjects

Question

Hi there,

I will simplify this for the same of the example.

I have two different object types

Supported Monitors

Monitors

Supported Monitors has the name and a restock level.
Name: Mon01  Restock Level: 2
Name: Mon02  Restock Level: 3

Monitors has all the monitors either deployed or in stock.

What I want to do is loop through Monitors and pull out all the 'In Stock' items and come up with a count.  Then lookup that model in Supported Monitors and if the returned count is less than the restock level, it will be an item that needs a re order.

Now I can do this for a specific item if I am passing if from an 'Object Updated' trigger, but I want to basically get a view of everything that might need a re-order.

I just end up with a lump of everything in the lookupObjects array that I can't do much with.  I am barking up the wrong tree with this one?

You must be in the global automation view AND also the rule must have a global scope.

Hello,

From 'Global' view on Automation, you can get hold of each object, and then using a variable, update the variable with the attribute value of the object.

For some reason, at the Project level for automation, the For AOL doesn't show up??

Hope that helps get you started.
