Hey there,

For this question I’m currently working on 4408. In specific: I’m revamping the way messages documents are being processed (especially for intermediaries). In co-operation with Martijn, we’ve added a force process button, to force process documents which don’t have linked messages.

The next few things I want to make possible (or already made possible)

1. Added a ABZ setting, which disables automatic processing of MI\_documents (done)
2. Change conditions which say a MI\_document is ready to process, to make the force process button conditional on visibility. (done)
3. I want to be able to connect the MI\_document to a version/definitive insurance. ![image](https://canada1.discourse-cdn.com/flex008/uploads/novulo/original/1X/a907f8f459b2669e5860466c97917070e515c028.png)  
It looks like the image above, where version is visible when contract reference is selected.

Now on to my question: I forgot how the context in functionalities works. At first I’ve made it that “Version” (as in the image) was connected to message items. But as I stated I want to “upload” certain documents under versions which they belong with. For example I’ve processed message item 2 and 3, but for some reason I have gotten a MI\_document, which belongs to version 2, I want to force process this.

This is how it currently is:

I’ve tried multiple things, but I don’t quite get it working. How would I test this in the expression debugger, so I can make “versions” show a list of versions which belongs to the contract reference and how do I do that?

Kind regards.

Please make sure to notify me if my line of question is not correct or if my question is not clear or if I provided not enough context. I’ll make sure to improve this.

Anyways, I’ve “figured” this out in co-operation with Remy and Reinier from Novulo. Reinier pointed out that the way I set this function up was correct, there were a few mistakes made from the actual form on the message item document form-page.

/closed.

Hi Jesse,  
Happy you were able to figure it out with the help of Remy and Reinier! For future reference we did create a new article on the [Novulo Expression Debugger](https://community.novulo.com/t/novulo-expression-debugger/355), which will hopefully give the needed insights in combination with an already existing article on [expressions](https://community.novulo.com/t/expressions-in-novulo/156).
