PM09315: ADD RESCHEDULE AND DELETE CUSTOM WORKFLOW ACTION DIRECTIVES

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• This defect is to document the enhancement of two new custom
  workflow action directives being added to the product. The new
  directives are:
  - RESCHEDULE: Which allows a custom workflow action to
  reschedule itself for sometime in the future
  - DELETE: Which allows the custom workflow action to perform a
  delete on the item being processed
  
  Additionally the Custom Workflow Action directives framework
  has
  been extended to support directive parameters. You can create a
  new directive parameter object by calling
  Directives.<DIRECTIVE>.createDirectiveParams and then casting
  the returned object to the apprioriate directive parameter
  object. When creating your Custom Workflow Action Result, you
  can use the new CustomWorkflowActionService
  .createResult(Directive, String, DirectiveParams) method to
  pass
  in your directive parameter object.
  
  Both the RESCHEDULE and DELETE directives have associated
  DirectiveParam objects. The RescheduleDirectiveParams object
  (created by calling Directives.RESCHEDULE
  .createDirectiveParams)
  allows you to specify the reschedule date whereas the
  DeleteDirectiveParams object (created by calling
  Directives.DELETE.createDirectiveParams) allows you to specify
  whether a permanent delete will be performed. By default the
  delete directive will perform a soft-delete of non-draft items
  (drafts will always be permanently deleted).
