Not Waiting after invoking Oracle Conc Program

Question

Hi,
My Scenario is for PO Interface iinto oracle is,
Inside BPEL Process,
Activity 1 is Invoking DB Adapter to Insert the records into Temporary Table.
Activity 2 is invoking DB Adapter to call an Custom API to which picks the records from Temp table, validate and Insert the records into Interface Tables.
Activity 3 is Invoking DB Adapter to Submit concurrent program , but that concurrent program is taking 1 minute.
BPEL is not waiting for 1 minute for the program to complete.
So I am putting WAIT activity so that Conc program finishes completely and creates the PO numbers in Oracle base tables.
Activity 4 is Invoking DB Adapter Package.Procedure, which picks the PO number from oracle base tables and update them in Temporary tables send the PO creation/failure status , and email id of buyer through out variables.
Activity 5 sends the email to the respective buyer with PO Status.
We are seeing that Wait activity is not waiting for the conc program to finish completely and BPEL is executing till ACTIVITY 3 above, after wait activity its coming out.
When I remove wait it executes all the steps in sequence without waiting for ACTIVITY 3 to complete successfully.
Can some body validate my sceanrio and suggest the desired solution.

Manish,
I'm also currently in a similar project. To invoke a conc.prgm I did the following
- wrote a pl/sql api where in I call the conc.pgm using fnd_request.submit_request and then I used FND_CONCURRENT.WAIT_FOR_REQUEST to wait for until the conc.pgm finishes.
To get the status's back also, I did this part inside the same api. This way I achieved the desired result.
Let me know if you need additional info.
Thanks,
Sen
