No - best practices are to avoid that node at all costs unless strictly required (which in most normal cases, it won't be). To query the value of a row of a table, you merely need to use a Query Entity in the data output of a node such as a Script Task.

I recommend having an expression rule pre-defined to allow you to easily query the DSE associated to different CDTs you'll be using commonly in your application, as this dramatically simplifies the process of arbitrarily adding a Query Entity call in different places like process nodes, interfaces, etc.

Hi,

Thanks for your suggestion.

For querying a specific record, do I need to use "Query Database Smart Service" or is there any alternative best solution. Please advice.

Thanks.

In the process model, simply query the latest value of that row into your PV, then update the value in the specific column(s) desired, then write the new value back to the DB in a WTDS node. This is pretty straight forward.
