ATTN Oracle Workflow Developers

Hello All,
This is an Oracle Workflow 2.6.2 Server deployment on Oracle 8.1.7 ... and I am looking to deploya wft file... however, I seem to be getting the following error message on the server (using command like wfload utility)..
Oracle Workflow Definition Loader 2.6.0
wferr:
- WFLDRL_FAIL
- WFLDRLF_PARSE LINE=1408
- WFLDRLF_BAD_KEYWORD VALUE=arrive
- WFLDRLF_NO_EQUAL_SIGN_FOUND
- WFLDRLF_MISSING_CLOSE_QUOTE LINE=1406
We are confused why we are getting "Oracle Workflow Definition Loader 2.6.0", when we are are not even using Wokflow builder. We are using wfload utility that comes with Workflow engine 2.6.2.
If any Oracle Workflow freelancers are interested - please call 914-498-9929.
Answers to the issue above are welcome. This is one excellent OWF forum.
Thanks,
Zubin.

Oracle Workflow Builder Concurrency

Hi All
We have Workflow installed in an Oracle9.2 database and have a few users using Workflow Builder to build workflows.
Unless I am missing something, it appears that the facilities for preventing workflow designers from clashing with one another and overwriting each others changes are fairly basic. There are no refresh buttons and it appears that provided you have a high enough access level you can easily overwrite someones recent changes.
The usual optimistic locking of checking changes prior to commit does not seem to be there.
Is this an oversight on Oracle's part (ie fairly new product and functionality may be forthcoming in future releases) or are we using the product incorrectly (ie you should not have multiple people designing the workflows)?
Apologies if this is a stupid question, but this is a new product to me that I need to support.
Thanks
KJP

Hi Kevin
If you were developing using wft files (not connected to the database except to upload), and had a source control system, then people would be checking the files in and out, then you shouldnt run into this issue. This would be the best way of building workflows in a multi developer environment. Connecting the database and uploading/downloading workflows is more of a developer convenience feature, not something for large scale development where you all might be modifying the same workflow.
Just as some background, Oracle Workflow is a core technology of the Oracle E-Business Suite, there are hundreds of workflows and many hundreds (at least) of developers using common development environments. So the product is deployed in very active development environments. Also, Oracle Workflow has been around ~8 years.

Java API to work with Oracle Workflow

Hi,
I'm new to Oracle Workflow. Currently, I'm starting to work on a java front-end to work with some features of Oracle Workflow.
The only thing I know, is that I should be using workflow 2.6.3, and someone gave me a jar which is supposed to be the java API to the workflow, and a link to some online info:
http://download-uk.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/workflow.102/b15855/toc.htm
The api I received, was a jar file named "wfapi.jar". It was sent to me by email, don't know where they got it from.
And that's it ... it's the only info I received.
Searching the web, I found this interesting article:
http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/ias/workflow/release262/wfjavawp.pdf
That teaches me how to work with the java API, but the document itself is intended for release 2.6.2 (november 2001). So I started doing the first coding, and found that I have no way of implementing the instruction: "import oracle.apps.fnd.common.*;"
Seems I don't have the "common" part of the package ... that just pops up two reasons:
1. I don't have the complete java API;
2. This code is for version 2.6.2, and in version 2.6.3 of the API the "common" was removed (which I think it would be quite odd).
So I endup with no way of testing, and don't know the product well enough to start working and learning with it.
Anyone can give me some lights?
Where can I find a complete and definite complete java API?
What about some guide with some examples on how to start working with the API?
Where can I search the demo java programs?
If I download the Oracle Workflow 2.6.3 from oracle.com, will I be able to get that API? Will I need to install it to get the API? Do I need the Oracle DB to be installed first?
I would appreciate some help on how I can startup using this, or what should I look for, and most importantly, where?
Thank you very much.
----- code example -----
To test using what I got, I've ran the following code:
          String sUser = "myuser";
          String sPass = "mypass";
          String sJdbc = "jdbc:oracle:thin:@";
          String sStrg = "myserver:1520:mysid";
          String sCharSet = null;
          WFDB myDB;
          WFContext ctx;
          myDB = new WFDB(sUser, sPass, sJdbc, sStrg);
          sCharSet = System.getProperty("CHARSET");
          if(sCharSet==null) { //cannot be null
               sCharSet = "UTF8";
This just gives me the following message:
[22-11-2005 14:58:54:328 GMT] 7b4542dd WebGroup E SRVE0026E: [Servlet Error]-[oracle/apps/fnd/common/VersionInfo]: java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: oracle/apps/fnd/common/VersionInfo
     at      at oracle.apps.fnd.wf.WFDB.<clinit>(WFDB.java:27).null(Unknown Source)
So it seems the "common" is needed after all ...

Oracle Workflow 2.6 with Oracle 8.1.7 for linux

Is Oracle Workflow Server 2.6 available for Linux as a
standalone product against an Oracle 8.1.7 database?
Oracle Workflow does not seem to be included in the Integration
Server option with the 8.1.7 installation.
I've only found the Oracle Workflow Server included with the 9i
database. Will this work with 8.1.7 as well or does it require
9i db?
Thanks in advance for your help,

Issue in notification API for oracle workflow

Hi,
I am facing issue in sending oracle workflow notification. i have created a simple workflow with a process.
I wrote one package which is creating adhoc role and sending the notification through api I(wf_notification.send).
I am able to get the notification as well as email notification but without attribute values. My workflow attributes are getting replaced by null, but message body is appearing.
Please help me, its urgent.
Thanks

I doubt that Oracle 7 DB is not supported. You may consider raising a SR with support.

Oracle Workflow 2.6.4 Migration

Hi,
One of our customer wants to migrate Oracle Workflow 2.6.4 from http server to WLS server and they are following the this blog :
https://blogs.oracle.com/warehousebuilder/entry/owb_11gr2_tip_downloading_and_installing_workflow_monitor_264
Now they have following questions ?
- Is this new setup ( WLS+Oracle Workflow 2.6.4 ) is supported by oracle officially ? If not then what is other option ?
- Where can we find the software - Oracle Database 10gR2 Companion CD(10.2.0.1) ? it is not available on OTN. Can we get the MOS link for it ?
Best Regards,
Anurag

For your second question, pl see MOS Doc 1476075.1

Custom Workflow using Oracle Workflow in ContentDB

Hi,
Could we use custom workflow which is made using Oracle Workflow instead of BPEL.
Regards,
Yulisar

Having registered custom workflows for Content DB via Enterprise Manager, potentially you can use any tool capable of dequeuing/enqueing messages from the IFS_BPEL_OUT/IFS_BPEL_IN advanced queues as part of a custom workflow process.
By default, we assume you are using Oracle BPEL PM with its Advanced Queue adapater to process the queue messages. However, there is nothing stopping using Oracle Workflow or any tool for that matter.
HOWEVER!!! Warning!!! There is a high probability that Content DB will drop the bundled Oracle Worflow installation in the near future. What this means, is that you should consider installing/configure/patching your own separate Oracle Workflow installation and not rely on the bundled Content DB solution which is used internally for Serial and Parallel Approval workflows.
thanks,
Matt.

How to commit a transaction in Oracle Workflow

Hi All,
Oracle says there should not be any commit in Oracle WF .It is the responsbility of the calling program to Call Commit.
I have the following Requirement:-
I want to insert a record in one of the custom table, when a record is saved in one of the Oracle Apps Form( for e.g. insert a record in the custome table when user creates PO.)
What I have done is :-
1) Added a subscription to one of the seeded events that is raised when user saves a record in the Oracle apps.
2) Designed a Custom Function, that is called when the above subscription is triggered off.
3)The above custom function inserts a record in the custom table.
Q ) where to write a Commit ( as this custom function is called from the WF and WF says, dont put commit in the WF,it should be called by the callling program)
Can also you explain me , when user presses the Save button on the Oracle standard form--> that calls the Oracle API to create a record in the DB and commit , ---> then the event is raised and trigger offs all the subscriptions where does it commit then?
Thanks

Hi,
The commit should be done by the form, or whatever raises the business event.
The API fires the event in the same transaction (unless the subscription is deferred), and then the commit is issued. This commits the transaction, and all actions of the event subscription.
If the subscription is deferred, then the concurrent request which processes the subscription will issue the commit on completion.
HTH,
Matt

Urgent help needed in inserting data into a custom table in oracle WorkFlow

Hi
I am trying to get data from the WF and insert into a custom table..
I read that workflow procedures WONT allow commits...
Oracle Workflow will not support autonomous commits in any procedure it calls directly. If you need to perform commits, then embed your SQL in a subprocedure and declare it as an autonomous block. This subprocedure must be capable of being rerun. Additionally, note that Oracle Workflow handles errors by rolling back the entire procedure and setting its status to ERROR. Database updates performed by autonomous commits cannot be rolled back, so you will need to write your own compensatory logic for error handling
Have anyone did this..
Please give me some idea ...It is urgent
I am getting data using getitemattribute..and try to insert it into a custom table

How to run Oracle workflow in windows 7 os

Hi,
Am new to oracle workflow.
I have installed oracle workflow successfully in my laptop.
After installation I dont see any shortcut's in my desktop.
Can any one sugess me how to run oracle workflow.
Steps to begin from basic level.
Thanks
Balaji

You mean to say you installed Workflow Builder on your laptop? See that Oracle Workflow has a Client Side (WF Builder), a backend Server side and middle application side.
Assuming you successfully installed the client side then you must have a group of programs called Oracle OUIHome and there one called Application Development. There you should be able to find Workflow builder.
Useful notes for WF Builder:

US Check/Deposit Advice XML
There are some additional dependencies for this patch that were not
originally communicated. Applying the EOY Phase 1 patch first satisfies
these dependencies. If there is a need to apply this patch prior to
applying EOY Phase 1 we are exploring possible alternative
pre-requisites and will send out a notice late next week with more
information.
* 11i one-off Patch 6399100 released 21-Sep-2007
* R12 will be part of Release Update (RUP) 12.0.4
Oracle will de-support the Live Checkwriter and Deposit Advice for US
and Canada beginning with 2007 EOY Phase 1. Archive Checkwriter and
Deposit Advice will continue to be supported. What this means is that
new code changes and bug fixes will not be tested on the Live
Checkwriter and Deposit Advice. Additionally, enhancements made to the
Archive version will NOT be made for the Live version.
Desupport of Standard Tax Interface
Oracle no longer supports the Standard Tax interface. Taxes will
continue to be calculated and tax rate changes from the Vertex Data
Updates will continue. New code changes and bug fixes will not be tested
on the Standard Interface and we cannot guarantee that all functionality
will continue to work. Additionally, enhancements made to taxes will NOT
be made for the Standard Tax Interface. We strongly recommend that you
upgrade immediately to the Enhanced Tax interface.

Process flows without Oracle Workflow?

I am using OWB 10.2, running with a 10.2 database. I want to create a new workflow module, package, and flow, and execute it the process flow using the OWB scheduler. The documentation implies that this configuration is possible, but when I create the workflow module it wants an Oracle Workflow connection for the location. I get the feeling that I'm overlooking something basic in the documentation.
QUESTION:
1) Is Oracle Workflow REQUIRED to create, deploy, and execute a process flow?

Hi,
Oracle Workflow is required for deploying processflow.
Where did you read in documentation about possibilities of running processflows without OWF? OWB instalation guide tells:
"If you plan to use Warehouse Builder process flows, you need to install Oracle Workflow to enable deployment."
Regards,
Oleg

URGENT: Oracle Workflow Error: API-10020 on Creation of OWB Process Flows

I am trying to use Oracle Workflow to create Process Flows, in order to link together various mappings and components in Oracle Warehouse Builder. However, in the process flow editor window when I attempt to drag an object such as a mapping onto the editor panel, I get an error message stating the below:
API-10020: Unable to determine if the map is a PLSQL or SQLLDR map, please correct the map or choose another map.
All my maps are in PLSQL, and the language setting is set to this. I have tried modifying the langauge settings to see if it makes a difference but with no luck. My colleague believes this is a known bug in Oracle Workflow and there is a patch available to correct it.
Can anyone help with this query please? Thank you for your time.

In some versions of OWB (10.1, 10.2) The mapping property will display PL/SQL, but will actually be set to NULL in the repository (which will cause PL/SQL to be displayed as default).
The fix is easy enough: in the developer navigator, right-click on the mapping and go to configure and set the generation language first to something other then PL/SQL (you should get an error) and then place it back to PL/SQL. This should force the GUI to reset the parameter.
Alternatively, use OMB*Plus:
OMBALTER MAPPING 'MAPPINGNAME' SET PROPERTIES \
(GENERATION_LANGUAGE) VALUES ('PLSQL');
Good Luck,
Robbert

Calling Oracle Workflow in Real-Time

I want to modify the logic in Oracle Apps (both Oracle self-service (pure HTML and JSP) and Oracle Forms applications) to make real-time calls to a mainframe system. The page needs to take different actions depending on the data from the mainframe system.
I want to avoid actually customizing the Apps and Forms pages if possible due to customization maintenance and support issues. I have been told that I can use Oracle Workflow to modify the actions of the pages without having to resort to customizations, as calls to Workflow are already embedded. Is this true, and if so, how would I go about inserting a call to a mainframe system?
I am considering mainframe calls using either a proprietary ODBC driver from a third-party vendor, or devising some sort of SOA interface to the mainframe (I know it would require custom development on the mainframe side).
Thanks!

I'm pretty sure the sbRIO cards only have 1 FPGA on them. So when you load the second FPGA code, the first is being overwritten. You need to make a single FPGA VI that can handle both functions. If you post your code, we can give more detailed advice.
There are only two ways to tell somebody thanks: Kudos and Marked Solutions
