Adding custom panels to Business Process Workspace

Hi,
is it possible to add a custom panel to the Business Process Workspace? By custom I mean a jsp/jsf/jsff/taskflow/etc that i design.
Is that possible. And if yes can somenoe point me to documentation or exemples?
Thanks in advance,
Diogo Henriques

Hi Ruben,
thanks for your response, but i'm still having problems.
First the workspace.properties didn't have that property, so i tried adding it but the workspace stop responding só I had to revert the alteration (on a side note, I altered the file in the .ear on the server and then updated the .ear through the deployments list, is there other way to alter it like a properties page?).
While looking for a solution to my problem I started seeing references to Oracle Webcenter and Process Spaces. Do I have to install them to be able to do the kind of costumizations I want?
Thanks,
Diogo Henriques

Making a created custom page visible to all users in Business Process Workspace

Hi everyone
I, as the admin of Business Process Workspace, have created a custom page to show an external URL.
How can I make this page visible to all of our ordinary users?

Hi Ashwini
Thanks for replying.
I did the same and it was working for me even if the Type is Single.
I just gave the Group name and all users were able to see the task. This is fine with me.
I just observed one more thing.
When the task is created, all the users in the Group are able to see it in 'Me & My Group'.
But the data entered by the creator is not seen by other users.
There is an action 'Save' in the Task. If the creator clicked on it, then the task is automatically 'Acquired' by the creator.
Other users in the group are able to see the task and the saved data, but are not able to Submit.
What I expected the Save button to do is only to Save the data in the Payload. Not Claim it.
Is there a way to make the payload data only to save but not to claim the task?
Thanks and Regards

BPM 11g: Adding external application link to process workspace

Hi,
In my project, I have a requirement to show a search link the applications panel of the process workspace (link will trigger a ADF application). Currently it is being implemented using a process with a single initiator task. The disadvantage of this approach is that a new instance is created for every new search. It unnecessarily invokes BPM which is not required as there isn't any flow.
In 10g, we can implement this using a 'Global Interactive Activity'. Is there any equivalent to that in 11g or any other other workaround so that I can only have the application link in the workspace instead of creating a instance every time?
Thanks,
Ravi

HI,
In 11g you have the concept of Global Links. You can refer to http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E23943_01/user.1111/e15175/bpmug_ext_apps.htm#BACCACGI fro example of how this can be acheived
I think there are also some samples on java.net for Oracle BPM Suite however this appears to be down at the time of posting so I can not validate this.
Hope this helps

Unable to see deployed process in Business process workspace

Hello ,
I am using BPM Suite 11gR1 in Oracle Jdeveloper. As using Hello world sample, I deployed the process successfully at weblogic server But i am unable to see the deployed application bpm/workspace (Business Process Workspace).
How can i make sure this? There is no exception in server logs.
thanks

Thanks MSR.
I have other Web Dynpro applications that I have succesfully deployed and they display correctly in the WDP Content Administrator.
The application in question is fine up until the point I activate the changes. So using NWDS I build and deploy the application, and it shows correctly in the Content Administrator. Once I activate the Activity I can no longer see the contents of the DC through the Content Administrator.
So what I see in our development environment is:
+ rd1.com/WorkingOK
+ Applications
+ Components
+ Models
- rd1.com/NotWorking
(The rd1.com/NotWorking node cannot be expanded)
Therefore I can no longer run the NotWorking application or transport it into QA/Production.
I have noticed that in the Development Configurations perspective in NWDS that the DC in question does not have src/packages/ProjectProperties.wdproperties

Undeploying the BPM project from Oracle Business Process Workspace

Hi all,
I am facing problem in deploying the project to Oracle Business Process Workspace, I had some issues while deploying the project for the first time, and now when i am again trying to deploy the same project, it is giving the error "*Deployment failed, Module already exists on server*".
is there any way i can deploy the project or delete the existing project from workspace and then redeploy the project ?
IDE used : Jdeveloper 11.1.5
Server used : Weblogic 10.3
Please guide me in this as soon as possible.
Thanks and Regards

Hi
1. Yes, from EM Console, first Undeploy the Workflow Project that you can find under SOA -> soa_infra -> default node.
2. Then expand Application Deployments -> Look for the UI Project (that has taskforms etc) and make sure to select it and Undeploy this also.
3. Now comes, what and how exactly are you deploying your SOA/BPM application. Any SOA/BPM application will have one Workflow project (atleast) and one or more UI Projects (for each user task). Also there may be some other utility projects or EJB projects. Now to deploy the entire application you have couple of options. Just select your Workflow project and deploy and during this time, it will list out all UI Projects and you can check all of them. Also for Workflow you can check one check box to overwrite any existing versions like 1.0. In this way you will have full Workflow deployed and all UI Projects also deployed. Once you do this, you cannot again deploy just the UI Project. Thats when you get these errors like already deployed etc. Now disadvantage here is, if you just make only UI changes, you cannot deploy only UI Project since it is already deployed as part of full app. So you had to again deploy Workflow project and check all ui projects also. this means all your existing workflow instances will become stale (redeploy of workflow makes all old tasks stale).
4. Another and more ideal standard way is, first deploy just the Workflow project and DO NOT check any UI Projects. Then from the Application Level, deploy the entire application that includes all the UI Project and any other Projects. Just select your application, properties and deployment section. And see the projects included in the application. Make sure you DO NOT check the workflow project. But check all other projects like UI or any other project. In this way, any changes you make to UI or EJBs, just deploy the application. Your workflow is still the same old. Bottom line, Workflow Project is created as a SAR (SOA Archive) which is like a jar file. And entire application is deployed like an EAR file. So you will have 2 files for deployment to any other Env where you do not have like JDev.
For now, follow first 2 steps, to undeploy all the stuff you have. Then you should be able to redeploy using one of the above options.
Thanks

Error while executing application using Oracle Business Process Workspace

CRM 7.0 / IS-U: adding custom fields to Business agreement for replication

Hello Experts!
We're working on replication of custom fields from IS-U to CRM 7.0.
Can you help me with clarification of my understanding of these questions..?
1) CRM/IS-U mapping tables for buag_main:
Business Agreement(BUAG_MAIN) is a BO in CRM that corresponds to CRM table CRMM_BUAG and to Contract account in IS-U table FKKVKP.
Table FKKVKP were enhanced with some z-fields,
so we are going to enhance corresponding CRM table CRMM_BUAG (or CRMM_BUAG_H) with that new fields..
But we see that these CRM and IS-U tables have far not the same field structures..
So, the question: Which crm and is-u tables i should look, enhance and replicate for Business agreement?
2) Access to Business agreement with possibility to add custom field:
I couldn't find in Web UI where i can directly edit profile of Business Agreement..
I've found just access to assignment block "Business agreement" on Account's profile overview page..(Role ServicePRO; Account details).
There I used AET to add custom field..but I faced with problem when the 1st popup appeared: there was no enhanced object "Business Agreement"..
Also in role "Utilities IC Agent" i've found "business agreement" profile but there I don't see buttons for adding custom fields..
So, the question is: Where I can access Business agreement profile to enhance it with custom fields for replication with IS-U?
3) CRM/IS-U data exchange functions:
I tend to use tcode CRMC_BUT_CALL_FU:
for CRM inbound event of BUAG object - FM CRM_BUAG_MWX_PROCESS_EXT_STRUC..(as template).
Question: Am I right that it fits my requirement to replicate custom fields from IS-U to CRM?
Please tell me if you need more information..
Looking forward to your answers.
Thank you a lot in advance!
Kind regards,
Evgenia

Hi Gobi,
Thank you for advice. But:
I've created fields not by using AET - I used documentation that Nicolas suggested me above.
I've enhanced tables and structures that were mentioned there with my z-fields for both sides (CRM and ERP).
Also I looked CRMC_BUT_CALL_FU for CRM Inbound BUAG_MAIN - corresponding standard FMs are marked for call.
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance.
BR,
Evgenia

User defined notification & custom alert in business process(eInsight)?

HI All,
I have a User Defined Notification Type setup in AlertAgent.
I want to create a Custom Alert in a Business Process that will be picked up by the User Defined Notification Type I have setup. I can't figure this out though?
The documentation doesn't seem to cover this (briefly mentions collaborations only), and I can find no examples.
Can you please explain how this is done, and/or send an example.
Cheers,
Ken

from SUN...
To send out a custom alert, you'll need to call the alerter.cutom() method. However, this method is available only in a JCD.
Here is the syntax:
alerter.custom(String arg0, String arg1, String arg2);
where
- arg0 be an existing alert type you created via your properties file, or you defined in the AlertAgent as a new Notification.
- arg1 is the severity of the alert
- arg2 is the detailed message for the alert
example:
alerter.custom("HD-00001", "INFO", "custom test alert")
The severity must be one of the valid alert severity levels {"FATAL","CRITICAL","MAJOR","MINOR","WARNING","INFO"}. There is a mention of how this should work in eGate_Sys_Admin_Guide.pdf section 8.4 and 8.4.1.

Creating Custom Monitors in Business Process Monitoring

Hi all,
I have configured business process monitoring in our Solution Manage EP1 box for our Production ECC5 server. The standard monitoring types such as Application Monitor, Due List, Background Job Monitor and their corresponding monitors work OK, but my question is how can I create my own monitor?
For example, under Application Monitor type, there is a monitor named PM/CS Orders which has some things like Orders in phase released and Orders in state created etc, but what I need is to report on PM Order if the order did not get Technically completed 3 hours after the last operation was completed, for example.
Is there a way to do that?
Thank you,
Sergiy

Hi Sergiy
As you may realized, application monitoring objects are predefined.
And its check is basically conducted day basis.
In the coding it check like, basic finish date or planned finish date,
delivery date etc. (So, not detail level check like operation completion date).
This is because (off course it also depend on the data volume),
basically the data collection frequency of application monitor is
expected not too often. Since data collector publish SQL,
if you have many data and configured to collect data quiet heavily,
it can affect system performance of satellite system.
so normally to check the backlog from previous day or more longer period,
it is expected. Thus once a day or twice a day is normally expected for
data collection(Off course, if data volume is not large, little bit more
frequency might be possible).
so daily check is considered as reasonable for application monitor.
(TBI:through put and backlog indicator)
If you really want to enable your requirement, as you are looking for
you need custom exit. And it enables your requirement.
In this case, you need to define customize in satellite system
through the program /SSA/EXM and you need to define your coding
that fit with your customize and requirement in the program
Z_BPM_ECU_COLLECTOR.
There is a document how to develop custom exit of bpmon in service
market place. So I recommend you to check the document at first.
http://service.sap.com/bpm
=>Technical document
==>Setup Guide - Customer Exit
also, there are past forum posting like following.
Re: BPMon - User exit monitoring
but first, please consider standard monitoring object can be used somehow.

Cannot log into Business Process Workspace using Custom Authenticator

Hello,
I have set-up a SQLAuthenticator on my WL10.3.5 and defined a number of users which can successfully login to console and em.
My problem is that these users are not able to login to Oracle BP workspace.
Note 1: Control flags are all set to sufficient (In addition to DefaultAuthenticator I have only the custom SQLAuthenticator in providers list).
Note 2: Ordering of Authenticators is: SQLAuthenticators, DefaultAuthenticator
Note 2: user 'weblogic' can login to workspace without any problem.
Any help would greatly be appreciated as this problem has taken more than a week of my time.
Regards
Edited by: user3106291 on Feb 23, 2013 4:27 AM

Hi
1. I hope workspace you are refering is: http://soahost:soaport/bpm/workspace.
2. User "weblogic" can login. And I hope he can see adminstrator link on top right hand corner etc.
3. Others Users say "userxyz" CANNOT login. NOW what do you mean with this. What Error do they get.
a) Does it say invalid username/password. If so, check the user account and verify the details.
b) Do they login, BUT do NOT see any link on Left Side to initiate a new instance. If so, is this User in the Role of Initiator. See below notes
NOW, what application is Deployed and what exactly are you trying to test
1. For any BPM Application, you will have a Start Node and End Node. Usually there will be a first Human Task (generally but not always) who can Instantiate or create a new prrocess Instance. And there are Swimlanes where we put all Tasks.
2. Then we map these Swimlanes to bunch of Users or AD Groups or Roles etc etc. Quick test is, create some users in Default Authenticator itself like weblogic1, weblogic2, weblogic3 etc and map these Users to these Roles.
3. If you have EXTERNAL Authenticator, that is also fine. This is how most of the times. Within JDeveloper itself, for Each Role you can Map users or groups from this External Authenticator. this means your application should be deployed and SOA Server is Up and Running. Only theny you can fetch the list of users and groups. Generally I do NOT recommend this. Do not do any mapping at JDeveloper side.
4. Instead, after you Deploy your application say to bpmDomain1. Go to EM Console and there under application BPMProcessRoles, map the application roles to each User or AD Group from your SQL Authenticator. See docs for detailed steps.
In EM Console, if you do NOT see your Swimlanes or Roles thats ok. You should see them by default after deployment. If not, create manually Each Role and name should Match exactly with what you gave in JDeveloper BPM Application. Find it under Organization.xml file under your soa project folder. And for each Role map users or ad groups. Also, Initiator Role should have a Human Task of type like Initiator.
So have you done anyof the above things. But most important, what Errors or Exceptions are you facing. Look at the log files and specially the output file or log where you start your soa server.
Thanks

Hi Chris
If you are trying to create a LOV and use that as a parameter, then you need to create LOV as Dynamic Cascading values. Once created then you can use that LOV in the Crystal Reports.
This is the best way to get dynamic cascading prompts in Crystal reports.
Please refer to Business View Admin guide for more information.
Hope this helps!!

Hi Kamil,
I'm guessing you are talking about encountering these issues post MLR# 7 patch.
Here are some of the things ypu could start off with:
1. Check your LS Inventory to see if your patch was applied successfully
2. Ensure that all the post installation steps were performed (in the readme file)
3. You could rollback this patch and check if you are still getting the same error.
4. After rollback, if your config works fine, rerapply the patch again and observe the effects.
Thanks & Regards,
Suhas.
