DataRow

The REFramework is a template that provides a robust and scalable structure for building automation projects. It uses the concept of TransactionData and TransactionItem to handle the input data and process it in a loop1. The TransactionData is a collection of items that need to be processed, and the TransactionItem is a single item from that collection that is assigned to the robot in each iteration2.

The type of the TransactionItem variable depends on the type of the TransactionData variable. By default, the REFramework uses QueueItem as the type for both variables, assuming that the input data comes from an Orchestrator queue3. However, if the input data comes from a different source, such as an Excel file, a web page, or a SAP application, then the type of both variables needs to be changed accordingly4.

In your case, since the input data is a DataTable that contains vendor names and addresses, the appropriate type for the TransactionItem variable is DataRow. A DataRow represents a single row in a DataTable, and it can store multiple values in its columns. By using DataRow as the type for the TransactionItem variable, you can access and manipulate the vendor information in each iteration of the process.

A static selector is a selector that has fixed values for the attributes of the target element, such as name, id, class, etc. A static selector is appropriate to use when the target element’s attributes do not change during runtime, meaning they are always the same regardless of the state of the application or the environment. A static selector is more reliable and faster than a dynamic selector, as it does not require any variables or arguments to identify the target element. A static selector is not suitable for situations where the target element’s properties change frequently, such as when the element is generated dynamically, or when the automation requires high flexibility, such as when the element can have different names or ids depending on the input or output data. In those cases, a dynamic selector is preferred, as it can use variables or arguments to adjust the attribute values according to the changes in the target element.

The Add Log Fields activity allows developers to create custom log fields that are added to the Robot Execution Logs. These custom log fields can be used to store and display additional information that is relevant to the automation process, such as transaction ID, invoice number, customer name, etc. The custom log fields can help to improve the traceability and analysis of the automation process, as well as to filter and group the logs based on specific criteria.

The Step Out action is used for stepping out and pausing the execution at the level of the current container. Step Out completes the execution of activities in the current container, before pausing the debugging. This option works well with nested sequences1. In the exhibit, the Step Out action will execute all the activities inside the Sequence container and then pause at the next activity in the Main workflow. References: Debugging Actions from UiPath documentation.
