Process Element Delete Signal - Retrieve not only the unique identifier of the deleted record but also the parent foreign key of the deleted record

Hi Community,

Any Idea, how can I retrieve not only the unique identifier of the deleted record but also the parent foreign key of the deleted record on delete signal?

My scenario is:

On deletion of a child record, I want to create a business process that will be triggered on delete signal. Then do the re computation of the total amount on parent record after the deletion of the child record. But the problem is on delete signal I can only retrieve unique identifier of the deleted record, I need also to retrieve the parent foreign key of the deleted record for me to re compute and update to total amount of the parent record.

Thanks,

Dear Fulgen,

If a process that starts on record deletion is started not in the background you can simply add "read data" element that will read all data needed from a record that is deleted. 

Best regards,

Fulgen Ninofranco,

Just uncheck "Run following elements in the background"

checkbox (http://prntscr.com/o2rt5q) and read all data from the record with this Id. 

Thank you Angela, this solves my problem

Hello colleagues,

 

In 7.18.3.1241 it didn't works, please see on https://prnt.sc/1tzz9qp, I have configured, but cannot recover data from deleted record to update detail totals

Hello Julio,

 

Please provide more details on this object from which records are deleted and how exactly you've deleted them? The simple process that triggers upon deleting one contact works perfectly in 7.18.3 full bundle on my end.

 

Best regards,

Oscar
