A BPM process with out any human task

Hi All,
I am new bie to BPM. Can I create a BPM process without any human task?
Like start event, service task (or any other activity) & end event.
If it is possible, please let me know the proper steps to execute and test this process also.
Thanks,

Hi
Yes, ofcourse you can have a Process without any User Task. Ex: Start Node -> Service Task -> End Node. Start Node can be 2 things say like DB Adapater and File Adapter. Read something from DB from some table and put into the Text File.
But the thing is, BPM Process is more of Role Oriented. If you already saw, you define something called Swim Lanes and put each User Task in those Lanes and automatically users in that Role only can work on those Task.
If you do not have any such things like User Task, you don't even need to create a BPM Process. Just create a simple BPEL with your custom Payload.
Now, the most important question is how do you plan to trigger/start this process whether BPM or BPEL. Do you assign some users to the first Role and do users log into bpm/workspace and click the Link on the left side to start the process. ALSO since there is NO User Task, you will NOT have any Task Details Page and this means you MAY NOT even see the link on the left side in bpm/workspace.
The only option I could see is have BPEL. This BPEL will have a WSDL automatically generated. And you can use this WSDL to instantiate the task.
If your intention is to use this process/bpel in some other MAIN Process then it is totally possible.

Reusing Human Tasks across BPM Processes with different Data Objects

Hi
JDeveloper 11.1.1.6, WLS 10.3.6, SOA/BPM 11.1.1.6
I have defined 2 BPM Processes, P1 and P2, which has 2 different Process Data Objects O1 and O2.
But I am reusing the same Human Task in both the processes.
For the Human Task to support the activities in both the processes, I have added O1 and O2 Data Objects in the Human Task Definition.
And hence the ADF Taskflow / page generated out of the Human Task will have both the Data Objects O1 and O2 as payload objects in the Page.
When an instance of Process P1 is created, the payload O1 will have values, but O2 will be null.
And when an instance of Process P2 is created, the payload O2 will have values, but O1 will be null.
It works well like this, but I am a bit concerned about the performance from BPM Process and also ADF page.
In ADF page, let us say, somehow I can control the rendering of the attributes or creation of the iterator bindings based on identifying which process is being executed.
(By setting the iterator binding refresh property in page definition)
In this way attribute bindings for O1 will not be created when P2 is being executed.
But still when the Process instance is created, and when we see the payload structure of the human task in the EM - Audit Trail,
I still see both data objects O1 and O2 are created in the Payload, but O1 will have nulls in process P2.
So my question is, from performance point of view, is it advisable to define different Data Objects in reusable Human tasks ?
Or should I have to define a separate Human Task definition which contains only the Data Objects related to the process it is being called from ?
Thanks for any help

Martijn,
You are correct in your assessment that the JAG in the current JHeadstart release cannot cope with multiple bc4j packages. There is no work around for this. Upgrading to 9051 will not help.
In the JHeadstart-ADF release, this restriction has been lifted. You can place your EO, VO and AM objects in different packages, and you can group them in a separate project (Model project), while generating your JHeadstart application in a ViewController project.
We have a number of customers that use the latest JHeadstart-ADF builds to build their ADF apps. If you are interested in joining this beta program, please send an e-mail to [email protected]

My iphone doesn't show me the effect on picture that are taken with effect is shows me it as a normal pic with out any effect but when I press edit it shows that the effect is already on but u can see it

my iphone doesn't show me the effect of the picture that Are taken with effect it just show them to me as a normal picture with out any effect and when I go to edit it shows there that the pic already has an effect and when I see the picture in group it shows that it has effect only when I tap on one to see it larger the effect disappear

I'm having the same issue, i restored my phone to Factory settings, even tried restoring it to my backup, half of my music bought from itunes won't play on my iphone and i'm super annoyed, this only happened once i updated to ios 7.2 so i assume its another glitch to go with my imessages not sending, getting sick of this.

HTTP Receiver Adapter payload as single line plain text with out any tags.

Hi PI experts,
I have a strange problem in http receiver adapter.
Sender RFC (SAP) Receiver: HTTP.
Receiver system expects the output from XI in the below format in a single line plain text with out any tags in the payload. and the content type should be application/x-www-form-urlencoded
Group=Test&Sentinel=Web%20Server&Facility=5345&Order Number=XT-XWHM-Y-NA&Serial Number=123456&@LABEL_QUANTITY=5&@LABEL_NAME=111114_Q
Is there any way to achieve this using http receiver adapter. Business is not ready to accept the output from XI not even in a single element instead they only need it as a JUST a plain text.
Appreciate early response on this.
Thanks in Advance,
Jitender

Dear Ola,
Could you elaborate how you achieved in catching the response data from the receiver in case of HTTP receiver adapter?
The target service is not a WebService but some python script that must to receive some paramters via POST request.
HOW can I post this parameters?
Here you entered the fields of the message type of the request in the header parameters of the receiver adapter? Thats fine.
But what about the message type and vice versa of the response from the receiver?
Regards
Rebecca

My bad?
You're original response was questions/post about an iMac. Now you've edited it to ask about a Mac Pro?
You can more easily add internal drives in a Mac Pro.
Not too terribly easy to add/replace drives in an iMac.
If younhave questions about a Mac Pro, try posting in the Mac Pro forums.
Much more knowledgeable users there.

Intiate Human Task returns complete without any human task intervetion

I created a simple BPEL flow with a Human Task element and I also tried some of the demo flows. When I initiate the task it immediately returns as COMPLETE. Irrespective of who I make the owner or approver for the task is. bpeladmin seems to be the one responding and marking the task as complete. Is there some configuration I am missing.
My JDeveloper is 10.1.3.1.0
BPEL 10.3.1.0
Has anybody encountered this problem?
Your help will be much appreciated.

Happy days. Glad I found this, been banging my head against the wall building a worklist demo - if in the human task definition you don't put anything under "Assignment and routing policy" then you'll get exactly this happen to you - the process will complete immediately, with no trace in the worklist application and no error that I can see.
I think an error, or at least a warning, should be kicked out in this scenario - be warned - it isn't !

Start bpm process with attachment or note

Hi All
Is there any way to start BPM process and add attachment or note to it.
My client requirement is that when the process is started requester should be able to add file or note.
This note or file should be visible in UWL task (in section attachments or notes)
Is there any way to do it using standard.
I know that I can store note in context of BPM process but customer is really pushing for standard.
Regards

Not sure if the requester is in BPM or outside BPM.
You can do this by keeping requester in BPM i.e. trigger BPM and give requester a task. (Dont think its preferred design).
In UWL you can let user add a memo or attachment... Refer below doc

Invoking a bpm process with web services with a return value

Hello,
Im invoking a bpm process in my application using web services. The problem is that I want to get a responde with the process id of the created process, but not wait for the finishing of the process. Is this possible?
thank you

Assuming this is for Oracle BPM 11g.
I'm a novice at this and sure others will have infinitely better ideas (have I lowered your expectations enough?), but here are two thoughts. Both of these ideas assume that your child process was invoked by an Oracle BPM parent process.
When you expose a process as a web service and invoke it asynchronously from a parent process, there is a call back service available. I've yet to figure out exactly how to get it to work, but if you look at the "Start" event's property in the composite (it's the service) you will see the callback information in the bottom dropdown. I believe what this means is that from your child process, you can use a Service activity to invoke a service that invokes the callback service back to the parent process's Service activity.
My other idea (you're not going to like this one) would be to to invoke the subprocess using a Message Start Event activity instead of the Service activity you're currently using. If you go this route, then you could have your parent process kick off the child subprocess using a Message Start Event activity and then immediately after this have a Message Catch Event activity. The child process could have a Message Throw Event activity immediately after its Start Message Event activity that sends a notification to the parent process. The good part about this is that I've actually gotten this to work.
You can send argument information back to the parent process, but (sorry) I don't yet know how to capture the process id.
Wish I could be of more help and hope this helps a little.

How deploy BPM process with ADF form?

Hi everybody,
I'm a newbie on BPM (11g) and ADF. I've created a BPM process and an ADF train into the same project.
I was wonder if I can deploy the ADF stuff and start to test only the train before hook up the ADF form with the UserActivity.
How I can do that? How can deploy it? Better create a jar or ear?
Any suggestions?
Best Regards.
Fairlie

Hi Daniel,
yes I have two separate projects - BPM and ADF - in the same applications.
For now, I'd like to work only on ADF project implementing the front end that I will use in next future into my BPM project.
Every time I click on Run on the main page in ADF project, JDev tries to deploy the entire application.
I need to work only on ADF for now and testing it. The soa server is on remote server.
I've tried to deploy the ADF project on remote server and I get this error:
'Weblogic Server Exception: weblogic.application.ModuleException: Failed to load webapp
Caused by: java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: oracle.adf.model.servlet.ADFBindingFilter'.
I've checked the oracle.adf.model library class path and It's ok...so I do not understand why I get this error.
What do you think is better to do? Trying to deploy the ADF with war, jar or ear...or...?
Thanks a lot for any suggestions.

How : Invoke asynchronous BPM process with callback within loop?

Hi All,
I'm currently using the 11g suite to create 2 BPM processes (Validate and Review). Process Validate is asynchronous and has a callback facility. I intend to invoke Validate from Review as a subprocess. My question would be, is it possible to invoke an asynchronous process with a call back? Can this be done in a loop?
JDev : 111.1.1.4
Thanks,
PP.

Sai,
Which IDE are you using to build the client? (In fact it doesn't matter)
Just put the jar files path into the classpath as John told. In order to find which jar files you need in this process, you can use eclipse java - jar class finder (which works with NWDS as well). Give it the class name(in this case commons.bla.bla...) and your jar files' folder, it will show you which jar file you need to put into the classpath.
Just a little googling may help you with the class finder

How to cancel the process in initiator of human task in 11g?

human task as the initiator of the process, by default there is only a SUBMIT button, how to cancel the process then?
if I just close the form, a task will still created in the task list, still in initiator step. what if I don't want this?
I tried to add an "CANCEL" output for this , if the output is CANCEL then go to then end activity, but seems it doesn't work. anyone got a better solution? thank you.

You should be able to use the "Withdraw" action for this - available from the task Actions button/drop down on the human task form.

Accessing Java Object with out any application servers

Hi,
I would be much thankful if any one guide/suggest me how to
access an java object with out using any application servers.I am
having an java object which holds dummy data and an mxml file which
contains some text fields. My plan was to access the java object
and put the dummy data in the text fields. I am using RemoteObject
for this. I am not able to proceed further. Please help me.
Thanks in advance

Karun Kumar

You can check The Merapi Project it's still in the
development phase but it'll allow to an AIR app invoke a java class
and run it as it were inside your app. But that's something you
can't take into production yet, why don't u wanna use a server
backend?
