Copy Job
Imagine a situation in which you want to create a new job instance and use current active job instance to retrieve values from. In this fictitious example we are using the active job instance to retrieve values from and set them on the newly created job instance. The service shown below will do all this within one service.
- A new Job instance is created
- The instance is activated after the attributes and relations are set, therefore we can retrieve values from the current active job instance.
- The attribute Job.Name gets the value from the active job instance.
- The backwards relation is set with the person from the active job instance.

If the instance activation parameter is set to before. The newly created instance would be been activated before setting the attributes and relations. This would mean that the Name attribute and ofPerson relation would have been set to UNKNOWN, because the values would have been retrieved from the newly created job instance. Instead of the old active job instance. |
