Accessing Inputs and Outputs in Header and Workflow Logics

On a quote line item, the inputs and calculation results are persisted as a List. When you retrieve the value from the list (e.g. in the header logic code), you should consider avoiding find {} or findAll {} – for increased performance – and use a map with key-value pairs instead.

Map getItemInputs(def item) {
  return item.inputs?.collectEntries { [(it.name): it.value] }
}

Map getItemOutputs(def item) {
  return item.outputs?.collectEntries { [(it.resultName): it.result] }
}

Now use these methods for accessing the inputs/outputs:

Recommended:

def items = quoteProcessor.quoteView.lineItems.findAll { !it.folder }

def totalInvoicePrice = items
        .sum { item ->
            Map itemOut = getItemOutputs(item)
            return itemOut.InvoicePrice * itemOut.Quantity
        }

To be avoided:

def items = quoteProcessor.quoteView.lineItems.findAll { !it.folder }

def totalInvoicePrice = items
        .sum { item ->
            BigDecimal invoicePrice = item.outputs.find {
                it.resultName == "InvoicePrice"
            }?.result
            BigDecimal quantity = item.outputs.find {
                it.resultName == "Quantity"
            }?.result
            return invoicePrice * quantity
        }
