Auditing BPM Processes

Hello all,
Is there a way to audit BPM processes in SAP CE? Lets say I have an approval process for vendors built in BPM. There are plenty of reasons why I may need to go back and show when and who approved a particular vendor. I think there are some other types of processes that may fall under some sort of regulatory requirement (ie: SOX) such as this as well.
Does anyone know how to do this? Is it possible to do this on an Ad Hoc basis? For example, could a business user given the appropriate security role go query some sort of log (the process manager doesn't seem to have this information) to get this information?
Thanks in advance!

Hi Ethen,
I'm not sure whther the following will serve the purpose for you or not, however, would like you to take a look at it and check.
there is a way you can check the BPM Process instances for their status and for each of the tsaks in those processes for that matter.
In NWA->Performance and Availability Management->BPM Process Overview screen, you can see the 'The Number of Processes' section. There you'll be able to see the number of instances of processes with Error,Completed,In Progress etc. statuses. If you clicck the number you'll go to the screen with the list of the process instances with that statuses. e.g. If you click the number for 'Completed', you'll be shown the completed process instances. If you select any process from the list, at the bottom, you can see Details,Process Definition,Administrators,History(indicating status of each task and the processor who completed the task) and Context Dat( showing the values in different objects for the Process).
There is a button 'Show Releted Tasks' at the top. If you clcik this button for the selected process, you'll see the list of all the tasks for this process, showing the details such as LifeCycle Status, Task Instance Id, Process Instance ID,Start Time, Processor of the Task for each of those tasks. At the bottom part of the screen, you can see Details,Deadline,Owners,History,Context Data etc.
I guess, the Processors,Owners, History,Start Date etc. fields may serve the purpose for the auditor.

BPM Process Spaces: Attachments and Comments issue

Hi,
I've integrated BPM Process Spaces with WebCenter Spaces. When I'm trying to initiate a Process and send comments and attachment, the values for them is not passed from step to another. For example, if user A initiate a task with comments and attachments and send it to user B; user B can't see the comments and attachments from user A.
I searched the internet and I found conflict answers, some answers are saying that comments and attachments are not supported and others are saying it's working.
Can please someone give me a definitive answer and the configuration required if any?
Also can someone give me a definitive answer about how to configure BPM to store attachment in UCM?
This is urgent as I'm preparing a customer POC next week.
Thanks
Regards

after some investigations I found the following:
- Users can attach documents and provide comments on task level from the task details page. The attachments and comments will only be available for this specific task but not on the process level.
- Users can attach documents and provide comments on Process level from the Process Tracking page-> Audit Trail part. The attachments and comments will available for all the tasks in the process
- in BPM 11.1.1.5 Features Pack. Integration with UCM has been developed and also comments and attachments can be defined as Task level or Process level when ever the user want to provide one.
Hope this helps.
Thanks

Calling BPM Sub Process from another BPM Process - Stuck at Sub Process

Hi
JDeveloper 11.1.1.6, BPM 11.1.1.6, WLS 10.3.6
I am trying to Call a BPM Process from another BPM Process. Both the processes are defined in the same BPM Project.
Both the Processes have 'None' Start and End activities.
The 'Parent Process' has a 'Call Activity' which calls the 'Sub Process'.
The Sub process takes a parameter of payload object as input and returns output (also same payload object)
I have passed the payload object from parent to sub process in the 'Data Associations'.
The Start and End activities in the sub process also have the data associations set where I am passing the payload object from parent process to child process.
When I run the process and see the Enterprise Manager console - Audit Trail / Flow tabs,
Flow Tab - The progress of the process is showing only till the Calling of the sub process in the Parent Process. It does not show the Sub Process.
Audit Trail Tab - Shows that the Sub Process is called but has not reached to the End of the Sub process.
The audit trail does not have links to the sub process activities.
I cannot see any exceptions as well in the audit trail.
How can I find out why the process is stuck? Or what is going on in the process?
Please let me know if my explanation is not clear?
Thanks for any help
Regards
Sameer

Thanks for replying.
I have another Sub Process with Start and End events as Message Events and used Send Task and Receive Task (Implementation : Process Call) in the Main process to invoke the sub process asynchronously.
Then, the Sub Process is shown in the 'Flow Trace' as child of the main process.
In this particular one, I used 'Call Activity' to call the sub process.
So the Audit trail is showing the sub process as a child.
But what I was trying to say is that the audit trail did not have links to the entries in the 'Event' column (in Enterprice manager - instance window). (like Instance entered activity, Instance left activity etc).
I was intending to use these links to see the payload information and try to debug if there is any problem with the code.
The actual problem I was trying to say in the post is that, even after the user responds to the activity (User Task - Approval) in the Sub process,
the audit trail is not proceeding further.
In the Sub process definition, after the user task, there is End with none implementation.
Hope it is clear now.
Thanks and Regards

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
Sameer

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]

Oracle BPM Process Data mart

I am required to create audit reports on BPM workflows.
I am new to thid & need some guidance on configuring BPM Process Data mart. What are the pre-requisites for configuring it & what are the steps to do it.
Also, need some inputs on BAM database. What is the frequency of data upload. Is it data update or insert in BAM.

Hi,
You might want to check out the Administration and Configuration Guides on http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E13154_01/bpm/docs65/index.html.
I suspect you might find the BAM and Data Mart portions of this documentation a bit terse, so I've added the steps below that provides more detail. I wrote this for ALBPM 6.0, but believe it will still work for Oracle BPM 10g. It was created from an earlier ALBPM 5.7 document Support wrote called "ALBPM 5_7 Configuring and Troubleshooting the BAM and DataMart Updater.pdf.
You can define how often you want the contents in both databases updated (actually inserted) and how long you want to persist the contents of the BAM database during the configuration.
Here's the contents of the document:
1. Introduction
The use of BAM (Business Activity Monitoring) and Data Mart (or Warehouse) information is becoming more and more widespread in today’s BPM project implementations for the obvious benefits they bring to the management and tuning of processes.
BAM is basically composed by a collection of measurements of current processes load and execution times. This gives us an idea of how the business is doing at this moment (in a pseudo real-time fashion).
Data Mart, on the other hand, is a historical view of the processes load and execution times. And this gives us an idea of how the business has developed since the moment the projects have been put in place.
In this document we are not going to describe exhaustively all configuration aspects of the BAM and Data Mart Updater, but rather we will quickly move from one configuration step to another paying more attention to subjects that have presented some difficulties in real-life projects.
2. Creating the Service Endpoints
The databases for BAM and for Data Mart first have to be defined in the External Resources section of the BPM Process Administrator.
In this following example the service endpoint ‘BAMJ2EEWL’ is being defined. This definition is going to be used later as BAM storage. At this point nothing is created.
Add an External Resource with the name ‘BAMJ2EEWL’ and, as we use Oracle, select the Oracle driver, then click <Next>:
On the following screen, specify:
·     the hostname – here I have used ‘localhost’ as I am just setting this up to work on my laptop
·     the port for the Oracle service
·     the SID – here I have use Oracle Express so the SID is ‘XE’
·     the new user to create / use in Oracle for this database – here I have specified ‘BPMBAM’. This user, and its database, will be created later
·     the password for the user
Scroll down to the bottom of the page and click <Save>.
In addition to a standard JDBC connection that is going to be used by the Updater Service, a remote JDBC configuration needs to be added as the Engine runs in a WebLogic J2EE container. This Data Source is needed to grant the Engine access over BAM tables thru the J2EE Connection Pool instead of thru a dedicated JDBC. The following is an example of how to set this up.
Add an External Resource with the name ‘BAMremote’ and select the Oracle driver, then click <Next>
On the following screen, specify:
·     the Lookup Name that will be used subsequently in WebLogic - here I have given it the name ‘XAbamDS’
Then click <Save>.
In the next example the definition ‘DWHJ2EEWL’ is created to be used later as Data Mart storage. If you are not going to use a Data Mart storage you can skip this step.
Add an External Resource with the name ‘DWHJ2EEWL’ and select the Oracle driver, then click <Next>:
On the following screen, specify:
·     the hostname – here I have used ‘localhost’ as I am just setting this up to work on my laptop
·     the port for the Oracle service
·     the SID – here I have use Oracle Express so the SID is ‘XE’
·     the new user to create / use in Oracle for this database – here I have specified ‘BPMDWH’. This user, and its database, will be created later
·     the password for the user
3. Configuring BAM Updater Service
Once the service endpoint has been created the next step is to enable the BAM update, select the service endpoint to be used as BAM storage and configure update frequency and others. Here the “Updater Database Configuration” is the standard JDBC we configured earlier and the “Runtime Database Configuration” is the Remote JDBC as we are using the J2EE Engine.
So, here’s the example of how to set up the BAM Updater service….
Go into ‘Process Monitoring’ and select the ‘BAM’ tab and enter the relevant information (using the names created earlier – use the drop down list to select):
Note that here, to allow me to quickly test BAM reporting, I have set the update frequency to 1 minute. This would not be the production setting.
Once the data is input, click <Save>.
We now have to create the schema and related tables. For this we will open the “Manage Database” page that has appeared at the bottom of the BAM screen (you may have to re-select that Tab) and select to create the database and the data structure. The user required to perform this operation is the DB system administrator:
Text showing the successful creation of the database and data structures should appear.
Once we are done with the schema creation, we can move to the Process Data Mart configuration screen to set up the Common Updater Service parameters. Notice that the service has not been started yet… We will get to that point later.
4. Configuring Process Data Mart Updater Service
In the case that Data Mart information is not going to be used, the “Enable Automatic Update” checkbox must be left off and the “Runtime Database Configuration” empty for this service. Additionally, the rest of this section can be skipped.
In the case it is going to be used, the detail level, snapshot time and the time of update should be configured; in addition to enabling the updater and choosing the storage configuration. An example is shown below:
Still in ‘Process Monitoring’, select the ‘Process Data Mart’ tab and enter the name created earlier (use the drop down list to select).
Also, un-tick the Generate O3 Cubes (see later notes):
Then click <Save>.
Once those properties have been configured the database and the data structure have to be created. This is performed at the “Manage Database” page for which the link has appeared at the bottom of the page (as with BAM). Even when this page is identical to the one shown above (for the BAM configuration) it has been opened from the link in the “Process Data Mart” page and this makes it different.
Text showing the successful creation of the database and data structures should appear.
5. Configuring Common Updater Service Parameters
In the “Process Data Mart” tab of the Process Monitoring section -along with the parameters that are specific to the Data Mart - we will find some parameters that are common to all services. These parameters are:
• Log directory: location of the log file
• Messages logged from Data Store Updater: severity level of the Updater logs
• Language
• Generate Performance Metrics: enables performance metrics generation
• Generate Workload Metrics: enables workload metrics generation
• Generate O3 Cubes: enables O3 Cubes generation
In this document we are not going to describe in detail each parameter. But we will mention a few caveats:
a. the Log directory must be specified in order for the logs to be generated
b. the Messages logged from Data Store Updater, which indicates the level
of the logs, should be DEBUG for troubleshooting and WARNING otherwise
c. Performance and Workload Metrics need to be on for the typical BAM usage and, even when either metric might not be used on the initial project releases, it is recommended to leave them on in case they turn out to be useful in the future
d. the Generation of O3 Cubes must be off if this service is not used, otherwise the Data Mart Updater service might not work properly .
The only changes required on this screen was to de-select the ‘Generate O3 Cubes’ as shown in the last section.
6. Set up the WebLogic configuration
We need to set up the JDBC data source specified above, so go to Services / JDBC / Data Sources.
Click on <Lock and Edit> and then <New> to add a New data source.
Specify:
·     the Name – use the name you set up in the Process Administrator
·     the JNDI Name – again use the name you set up in the Process Administrator
·     the Database Type – Oracle
·     use the default Oracle Database Driver
Then click <Next>
On the next screen, click <Next>
On the next screen specify:
·     the Database Name – this is the SID – for me that is XE
·     the Host Name – as I am running on my laptop, I’ve just specified ‘localhost’
·     the Database User Name and Password – this is the BAM database user specified in the Process Administrator
Then click <Next>
On the next screen, you can test the configuration to make sure you have got it right, then click <Next>
On the next screen, select your server as the target server and click <Finish>:
Finally, click <Activate Changes>.
7. The Last Step: Starting Up and Shutting Down the Updater Service
ALBPM distribution is different depending on the Operating System. In the case of the Updater Service:
-     For Unix like Operating Systems the service is started or stopped with the albpmwarehouse.sh shell script. The command in this case is going to look like this:
$ALBPM_HOME/bin$ ./albpmwarehouse.sh start
-     For Windows Operating Systems the service is installed or uninstalled as a Windows Service with the albpmwarehouse.bat batch file. The command will look like:
%ALBPM_HOME%\bin> albpmwarehouse.bat install
After installing the service, it has to be started|stopped from the Microsoft Management Console. Note also that Windows will start automatically the installed service when the computer starts. In either case the location of the script is ALBPM_HOME/bin Where ALBPM_HOME is the ALBPM installation directory. An example will be:
C:\bea\albpm6.0\j2eewl\bin\albpmwarehouse.bat
8. Finally: Running BAM dashboards to show it is Working
Now we have finally got the BAM service running, we can run dashboards from within Workspace and see the results:
9. General BAM and Data Mart Caveats
a. The basic difference between these two collections of measurements is that BAM keeps track of current processes load and execution times while Data Mart contains a historical view of those same measurements. This is why BAM information is collected frequently (every minute) and cleared out every several hours (or every day) and why Data Mart is updated infrequently (once a day) and grows indefinitely. Moreover, BAM measurements can be though of as a minute-by-minute sequence of Engine Events snapshots, while Data Mart measurements will be a daily sequence of Engine Events snapshots.
b. BAM and Data Mart table schemas are very similar but they are not the same. Thus, it is important not to use a schema created with the Manage Database for BAM as Data Mart storage or vice-versa. If these schemas are exchanged by mistake, the updater service will run anyway but no data will be added to the tables and there will be errors in the log indicating that the schema is incorrect or that some tables could not be found.
c. BAM and Data Mart Information and Services are independent from one another. Any of them can be configured and running without the other one. The information is extracted directly from the Engine Database (PPROCINSTEVENT table is the main source of info) for both of them.
d. So far there has not been a mention of engines, projects or processes in any of the BAM or Data Mart configurations. This is because the metrics of all projects published under the current Process Administrator (or, more precisely, FDI Directory) are going to be collected.
e. It is also important to note that only activities for which events are generated are going to be measured (and therefore, shown in the metrics). The project default is to generate events only for Interactive activities. This can be changed for any particular activity and for the whole process (where the activity setting, when specified, overrides the process setting). Unfortunately, there is no project setting for events generation so far; thus, remember to edit the level of event generation for every new process that is added to the project.
f. BAM and Data Mart metrics are usually enriched with Business Variables. These variables are a special type of External Variables. An External Variable is a process variable with the scope of an Instance and whose value is stored on a separate column in the Engine Instances table. This allows the creation of views and filters based on this variable. A Business Variable, then, shares all the properties of an External Variable plus the fact that its value is collected in all BAM and Data Mart measurements (in some cases the value is shown as it is for a particular instance and in others the value is aggregated).
The caveat here is that there is a maximum number of 256 Business Variables per FDI. Therefore, when publishing several projects into a single FDI directory it is recommendable to reuse business variables. This is achieved by mapping similar Business Variables of different projects with a unique real Variable (on the variable mapping performed at publish time).
g. Configuring the Updater Service Log
In section 5. Configuring Common Updater Service Parameters we have seen that there are two common Updater properties related to logging. These properties are “Log directory” and “Messages logged from Data Store Updater”, and they specify the location and level of these two files:
- dwupdater.log: which is the log for the Data Mart updater service
- bam-dwupdater.log: which is the log for the BAM updater service
In addition to these two properties, there is a configuration file called ‘WarehouseService.conf’ that allows us to modify these other properties:
- wrapper.console.loglevel: level for the updater service log
- wrapper.logfile.loglevel: level for the updater service log
- wrapper.java.additional.n: additional argument to the service JVM
- wrapper.logfile.maxsize: maximum size of the updater service log files
- wrapper.logfile.maxfiles: maximum number of updater service log files
- wrapper.logfile: updater service log file name (the default value is dwupdater-service.log)
9.1. Updater Service Log Configuration Caveats
a. The first three parameters listed above have to be modified when increasing the log level to DEBUG (since the default is WARNING). The loglevel parameters have to be set to DEBUG and a java.additional.n (where n is a consecutive integer to the already used ones) has to be set to –ea to enable asserts, since without this option no DEBUG message is going to be generated.
b. Of the other arguments, maxfiles might need to be increased to hold a few more days of data when the log level is set to DEBUG (with the default value up to two days are stored).
c. The updater service has to be stopped, uninstalled, installed and then started for any of these changes to take effect.
Hope this helps,
Dan

BPM Process chain takes long time to process

We have BI7, Netweaver 2004s on Oracle and SUN Solaris
There is a process chain (BPM) which pulls data from the CRM system into BW. The scheduled time to run this chain is 0034 hrs. This chain should ideally complete before / around 0830 Hrs. <b>Now the problem is that every alternate day this chain behaves normally and gets completed well before 0830 hrs but every alternate day this chain fails</b> there are almost 40 chains running daily. Some are event triggered (dependent with each other) or some run in parallel. In this, (BPM) process chain, usually there are 5 requests with 3 Delta and 2 full uploads (Master Data). The delta uploads finishes in 30 minutes without any issues with very few record transfers. The first full upload is from 0034 hrs to approximately 0130 hrs and the 2nd upload is from 0130 hrs to 0230 hrs. Now if the 1st upload gets delayed then the people who are initiating these chains, stop the 2nd full upload and continue it after all the process chains are completed. Now this entire BPM process chain sometimes takes 17 -18 hrs to complete!!!!!
No other loads in CRM or BW when these process chains are running
CRM has background jobs to push IDOCS to BW which run every 2 minutes which runs successfully
Yesterday this chain got completed successfully (well within stipulated time) with over 33,00,000 records transferred but sometimes it has failed to transfer even 12,00,000 records!!
Attaching a zip file, please refer the 21 to 26 Analysis screen shot.doc from the zip file
Within the zip file, attaching Normal timings of daily process chains.xls the name explains it.
Also within the zip file refer BPM Infoprovider and data source screen shot.doc please refer this file as the infopackage (page 2) which was used in the process chain is not displayed later on in page number 6 BUT CHAIN GOT SUCESSFULLY COMPLETED
We have analyzed:--
1)     The PSA data for BPM process chain for past few days
2)     The info providers for BPM process chain for past few days
3)     The ODS entries for BPM process chain for past few days
4)     The point of failure of BPM process chain for past few days
5)     The overall performance of all the process chains for past few days
6)     The number of requests in BW for this process chain
7)     The load on CRM system for past few days when this process chain ran on BW system
As per our analysis, there are couple of things which can be fixed in the BW system:--
1)     The partner agreement (transaction WE20) defined for the partner LS/BP3CLNT475 mentions both message types RSSEND and RSINFO: -- collect IDOCs and pack size = 1 Since the pack size = 1 will generate 1 TRFC call per IDOC, it should be changed to 10 so that less number of TRFCs will be generated thus less overhead for the BW server resulting in the increase in performance
2)     In the definition of destination for the concerned RFC in BW (SM59), the Technical Setting tab says the Load balancing option = No. We are planning to make it Yes
But we believe that though these changes will bring some increase in performance, this is not the root cause of the abnormal behavior of this chain as this chain runs successfully on every alternate day with approximately the same amount of load in it.
I was not able to attach the many screen shots or the info which I had gathered during my analysis. Please advice how do I attach these files

Hi,
Normally index creation or deletion can take long time in case your database statistics are not updated properly, so can check stat after your data loading is completed and index generation is done, Do creation of database statistics.
Then try to recheck ...

Dynamic Filename in BPM process (SOAP with attachm. and PayloadSwapBean)

Hello together
I have the following BPM process:
1. IDoc=>WebServiceRequest
2. WebServiceResponse (payload) => IDoc
3. WebServiceResponse (attachment) => File
XI receivs an IDoc an map it to an WebService. The Webservice is called by XI and we receive the WebServiceResponse including a PDF attachment.
The challenge is to store the PDF attachment with a dynamic filename from the payload of WebServiceResponse.
We use the PayloadSwapBean to change the payload to the PDF attachment. But then we are not able to access the required information on the original WebService-XML-Response via variable substitution.
Is there a solution in the standard or have we to use a custom adapter module?
Thx
manuku

Hi Jayasimha,
We can do this by "Adapter Specific Message Properties" of ur comunication channels.
1.If u want to keep the output filename same as input filename, no need to use the UDF. only the 'adapter specific parameters' in both sender n receiver file adapter will do that.
In case if u want to get the filename inside our mapping we have to create a user defined function
which will return the filename and map it to one of our XML tags. 2nd point gives solution 4 that:
2. If u want to generate an output file taking some input from the payload,then u hav to use the UDF.There u hav to populate the name.
Pretty much.... if you set an attribute from the sender side, for example, you can use a UDF and access the particular attribute sent and use it in the mapping. In another example, where no attributes are sent from the sender, you can still actually set a particular attribute, say a filename derived from the payload, using a UDF, and enable the receiver attribute to use it. That's where the UDFs come in - either to get or set particular adapter specific message attributes.
This will be a very helpful blog which solves ur query:

How to access/invoke Web Service from BPM Process

The following steps required to attach and invoke web service method from process:
1) Add a module in the catalog for ex WebServiceMO
2) Add WebService Catalog component demoWebService in WebServiceMO
3) Put ur WSDL address in WSDL address field like "http://localhost:8080/test/test?wsdl"
4) Click next to introspect the web service it will import required files and setting from the url to your project
5) Now for invoking webservice just call the method for ex.
@return as String[]
getTestStringList(TestInterfaceService, out @return : @return)
logMessage "web service calll result >>"+length(@return)+">>>"+@return[0]
Here @ return is the return from webservice call.
this way u can access web service from BPM process.
Edited by: Anurag Yadav on Jul 17, 2009 2:19 PM

I have a web service which does not return any value but when I introspect the web service, I have an out parameter to it.. Not sure why?
For e.g.
TestServiceListener.addTestNotes(TestNotes : testNotes, out TestNoteResponse : testNoteResponse);
So here I see an out parameter, but my web-service has no out parameter...
Any idea why is this happening?

Scheduling a bpm process on particular date

Hi all,
I'm working on SOA suite 11.1.1.5 version.I want to scheduling a bpm process on 7th date of every month.Please give me a suggestion on this.
Thanks!

there are zillion of solutions, my favorite (I like primitive stuff, usually it works under all circumstances) is to use a cron job to run a WGET who triggers a HTTP enabled activator for the process.
Otherwise if you google for soa suite scheduler you will find endless discussions on this topic.... truth is that there is no simple solution AFAIK

Task UWL and Warnings BPM process

Hi,
I have two questions about:
- Created Tasks in the UWL
- Warnings BPM process.
I have created a BPM process with a one human activitie. This human activity assigned to a task with one potential owner. When i start the process and open the portal UWL, two tasks has been generated!?. Both are the same because when i complete the first task and open the second task, i get the message: " Task has been already completed ".
Second question: when i open the created BPM process, the following warnings appears in the problem tab of NWDS:
Some of the data elements from input mapping of "Cancelled"is not initialized before used.
Some of the data elements from input mapping of "Completed"is not initialized before used.
How can i solve this warning?
Kind regards,
Martin Gerritsen

Hi Martin,
Regarding the "double-task". How did you invoke the process? Via web service? Via NWA? Might it be possible that you submitted the request twice (e.g. double-click instead of a single click?) and that's the reason why 2 tasks are apparing? Or does this happen every time when you start the process?
Just a best guess.
Best regards,
Martin
Martin,
The process will be started by a web service. This service is created as a new WSDL in the BPM environment. This service is connected to the start event of the BPM process and contains a few import parameters. After that i called the service from a R/3 system which started the process.
The 2 tasks apparing everytime i start the process...
When i start the process from the process repository (Netweaver Administrator -> Configuration Management -> Processes and tasks), i get the same problem...
The process contains two human activity's. When the first activity is completed and the second human activity start, 2 tasks will be generated (both the same...)

How to carry out an action on a task in a bpm process from another adf app?

Hi everyone,
We have a simple BPM process with only one human task with two actions: approve and reject.
We want to know if it is possible to approve or reject this task from another adf application; I mean by clicking a button on a different page - not using the Actions menu in workspace, can I change the status of the task to approved or rejected and remove the task from the workspace of the assignee?

I think you can use ItemAdding event to update your fields. This works better for you instead of ItemAdded event.

Why can´t i have more than one initiator task on my bpm process

Hi All.
I am working with BPM 11g and would like to know:
Why can´t i have more than one initiator task on my bpm process
In this case, i will have two separeted process where each has its initiator task?
Regards,
Diovani

Hi Diovani
Two different processes can have different task initiators...task initiator means creation of a process instance which can happen only once

Getting error while Startting a BPM process programmatically

Hi Experts,
I am getting an error while trying to start the BPM process programmatically. What i have done till now is
1. Created a WS in process composer
2. Binded this ws with start of the process
3. Created input parameters
4. Testing it in WS Navigator
I am following this doc /people/arafat.farooqui/blog/2009/08/13/introduction-to-sap-netweaver-bpm-part-4
and I am getting error while testing in WS Navigator. I am getting error at the last step i.e. in result step and the error is
Web Service returned an error. Fault Code: "(http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/)Client" Fault String: "No operation found using soap keys [], [cn_comments]. InterfaceMapping Object class: com.sap.engine.services.webservices.espbase.mappings.InterfaceMapping mappings: (BindingType=Soap, SEIName=NewWSDLFile, BindingQName=(http://www.example.org/NewWSDLFile/)NewWSDLFileSOAP, PortTypeQName=(http://www.example.org/NewWSDLFile/)NewWSDLFile, SoapVersion=SOAP11, Galaxy_SDO=true, InterfaceMappingID=45ffb27c:1237f972cd8:-7d7e)."
If possible can any one help me out.
Thanks and regards
Pranav

Hi Arafat,
Thanks for replying. Yes i have completed the output mapping. Input parameters i need for this service are :
1. cn_comments
ca_comments
2. cn_planningGroup
ca_account
ca_serialnumber
and few more attributes
Now, what i did was i have created a complex type and added elements in it. But to my surprise i was not able to get these nodes and elements in output mapping. So, i changed the type of "parameter" from "new operation" to my complex type. By doing this i was able to get my nodes and elements in output mapping. Now i tested the entire thing in WS Navigator and i got that error.
Please suggest how o proceed.
Regards
Pranav
