S1:I uninstalled BPA.
S2: I installed BPA again using the default options by selecting all the default options that the BPA showed during installation. EG. I selected 'Oracle Lite' which was by default an option.
S3: After BPA installation, I also installed BPA Publisher which i had not done last time.
S4: Restated my system and it all works gr8 now.
Actually, the BPA Publisher creats a Repository area so it should have been installed along with the BPA installation. And Since a Repository area was not found it was giving this error message again and again.
Now its all fine . Hopefully, some one else will learn from my mistakes.

How to Change URL of BPA after clicking on Open Document in PO Notification for India Localization?

In the Purchase Order Approval workflow notification , there are two links at the bottom of page under heading REFERENCES,
- view PDF
- open document
So when we click on open document, the Oracle Forms loads and purchase order screen will appear in the screen.
In case of India localization, for standard PO the India local screen opens, where we can see the taxes by clicking on Taxes Button.
But in case of blanket purchase agreements, when we click on open document link from the notification,we are routed to the application with the screen of global purchase order, instead it
should go to Purchase Orders(Localization).
We want to move to the India local po screen for BPA.
So please let me know, where I can change the URL for Blanket Purchase Agreements.
Regards
Sandeep

How to make a RTF-Template for the Bill Presentment Architecture (BPA)

Hallo,
I search a way to make an external RTF-template for the Oracle Receivables Balance Forward - Detail report in the Bill Presentment Architecture (BPA).
I've never done that.
I don't know how to get a XML-file of this request to use for the creation of the RTF-file.
And so I don't know how to specify in the RTF the LOOPs for the Lines and other If-conditions and so on.
Can anybody help me?
Thanks.

HI,
Can you please help me in finding XML output for Invoice Print BPA Child Program. I have tried changing the output format to XML but no luck. If you can send me any suggestion to my email address [email protected] would be very helpful.
Also, Did you try adding any conditional formatting (eg. <?if:column_name='value'?>) in RTF template? is it working?
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks

Question re: DNS configuration on 2012 R2 Essentials Server BPA

Just a basic question here for BPA re: DNS settings on server and workstations.
During server installation DNS server role was auto installed, I presume as a subset of ADUC. We have a small law firm with a single server and 17 users. I have made no forward or reverse lookup entries in DNS. The pri and sec DNS
settings on the servers lan adapter are set to Time Warner provided dns addresses. The workstations are set to the local server IP address for primary DNS. Is this an acceptable scenario?

Hi,
I am sorry to say that I am not quite sure of your environment.
Did you mean that you have a local DNS server in a workstation? Based on my experience, you can configure as below on the DNS server:
Primary DNS server : itself
Secondary DNS server : 127.0.0.1 (As the BPA for DNS indicates that DNS servers on <adapter name> should include the loopback address, but not as the first entry)
In addition, if you want to perform external name resolution, please configure a DNS forwarder (You can point it to your ISP DNS server, if the time provider can perform external name resolution, you can also point it to the time provider) on the DNS server:

How to change dispaly format of Due Date in BPA Invoice Template (11.5.10)

Hi,
I've modified the Invoice Template through template management in Bill Presentment Architecture (BPA). I copied the default layout and made the format changes, added our company logo etc. The only thing that I'm unable to do is change the format of the date Content Items like Billing Date and Due Date (TERM_DUE_DATE). Does anybody know how I can do that.
Thanks for your help

Jassing,
Thank you for the hint about preferences. I didn't think about that.
The date formats are suppose to follow the format setup in personal preferences. But it turns out that there is a bug that just the 'Due Date' in BPA Invoice template is not following that. The other dates are displaying according to the format in preferences. So we'll be applying a patch to fix it. Hopefully that will fix it

What went wrong with installation of BPA???

I just installed de BPA Suite and thought i could just click and run... but all i get is just a blank screen of the Oracle Business Process Architect. Did i do something wrong?
During installation of JDeveloper i had similar, also blank screen after installation. this was solved by downloading Jdev version without JRE en use seperate JRE (1.6) and change some configurations.
Could it be i have same problems now with the BOA Suite and if so, is there a work around (like change some settings)

blank screen, never had anyting like this. try reinstalling the suite in another drive after uninstalling the present suite.

Need help setting up an Oracle BPA Local Server

I would like to make my computer the server and enable other users to connect to my Oracle BPA database. Is there an easy way to setup my computer? I tried having another user add my IP address as the server location using the "Add Server" option in the menu but that did not work. Do I need to change any settings?
Thanks!

Hi,
The Business erver / Repository Server is not the part of Oracle BPA offering as of now
Oracle calls Business Server as Repository Server. And its different product and need a different licenses
And the bad news is it isnt avaliable any where else for download.
the products in Oracle BPA package are originally part of IDS Scheer's ARIS product range.
And IDS does not gives any evaluation copies (atleast in india), thanks to Oracle that they have made BPA suite avaliable for evaluation.
So if you wish to experiment with Repository Server you have two ways either buy it from IDS or wait for Oracle to offer the evaluation version, i wont suggest buying something that you havnt tried :)

Import Oracle BPA model (EPC) to Oracle BPM 11G

Hi,
I have my business process modeled using Oracle BPA product (EPC format). Now I need to import this model into Oracle BPM 11G which uses BPMN 2.0 format. Does any of the softwares provide a way to transform EPC models to BPMN 2.0 format.
These are the some of the approaches that I tried to perform the conversion:
1. Use share blueprint option for EPC model
Issue with this approach: The model imorted in jdeveloper is not BPMN 2.0 format, It is .xpdl file
2. Installed tutor macros on Oracle BPA, however this macro is enabled only for BPMN 2.0 process models, not for collobration models. Recreating the entire model as BPMN 2.0 Process model (I don't prefer this approach since this include manual conversion of the models from EPC) also does not work.
Issue with this approach: After importing model in OBPM is all activities appear as human task, new human task is created for start and stop activities along with start and stop events.
3. Use share blueprint option in Oracle BPA, this works only for BPMN 1.0 formats.
Issue with this approach: The SOA -> share blueprint option is not enabled for BPMN 2.0 type models
Ideal solution for me would be if there is a way to import the models created in EPC format into oracle BPM 11g without recreating the models manually. Can anyone help me with this?

Hi,
Actually it's tool couldn't help you resolve your tasks.
It hasn't options "share blueprint" for BPMN 2.0 type models.
And I don't know software which can transform EPC model to BPMN 2.0 model...

Exchange BPA Errors (Exchange server is a virtual machine but the additional tools are not installed and The 'Services' string type value located in 'HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\ExchangeServer\v14\Setup\Services' registry key is missing)

Hi,
I am running BPA on My Exchange 2010 VM (Server 2008 R2 VM on Hyper-V) and get the following errors:
The 'Services' string type value located in 'HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\ExchangeServer\v14\Setup\Services' registry key is missing or inaccessible. The Microsoft Exchange Information Store service won't start. As a result, all services that depend
on this service won't be able to start
Exchange server [Exchange Server FQDN] is a virtual machine but the additional tools are not installed. This configuration is not supported. Install Virtual Machine Additions for this guest.
Problem is that, for the first, that Key exists and the service is actually running fine. And for the second my VM tools are already installed.
Hopefully someone out there has had the same issue and can assist.
Pete

Hi Pete,
For the first error message, please try the following steps:
Make sure the Information Store service is in Starting status,
Automatic startup type and works well, as a test we can try to
restart the Infroamtion Store service and verify the service works well.
Start
Registry Editor, find the registry key “Services” under “HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\ExchangeServer\v14\Setup”, its value is “C:\Program
files\Microsoft\Exchange Server\v14”(default install location), please check your registry, make sure the key “Services” exist and value is the Exchange Server install location and the
location is accessible;
Start
Registry Editor, and locate the following registry key:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Exchange\Setup
Use the
Permission option under the Security tab to check the permission setting on this key. Make sure
System is in the list with Full Control permissions if the service account is Local System. If you are not using Local System as the service account, check the existence of the corresponding account in the list and ensure that
it has Full Control permissions. Please refer to this article:
Title: Exchange Store Does Not Start: Errors 7024, 1026, 9542, and 5000
Link:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/285116
Start
ADSI Edit, and then browse to the following location:
Domain.com/Configuration/Services/Microsoft Exchange/Org/Administrative Groups/AdminGroup/Servers/Server Name
Right-click the
server name, and then click Properties.
Click the
Security tab, make sure this own server’s server object have
full control permission on its own server.
If not or the object is missing, please modify the permission or click
Add, locate the computer account for the Exchange Server computer, add it to the Permissions list with full control.
Click OK, and then close ADSI Edit.
Use
Active Directory Users and Computers to add the current affected
Exchange Server computer account to the Exchange Servers(previous version should be “Exchange Domain Servers”) group in the
Microsoft Exchange Security Groups( or Users) OU. Refer to this article:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/297295.
Restart the Exchange Server computer, then rerun the ExBPA.
For the second error message, Microsoft don’t recommend to install Exchange Server on virtual machine without additional tools, so the error message occurs. We can just ignore
this message, it will not affect the Exchange servers.
Regards, Eric Zou

BPA shows domain prepped for Exchange 2007 SP1 after SP3 install

Hello,
I have a Client with a domain that is at 2003 domain functional level and 2000 forest level.
The client had Exchange 2007 SP1 and I have just upgraded it to SP3. There is one CAS, one Hub Transport, and one Mailbox Server (All three had Exchange 2007 SP1).
The domain and forest were prepped earlier by someone else and when I ran the installation program, it didn't pop up any errors on any of the servers.
The upgrade to SP3 is in preperation to Exchange 2010. Everything is working ok. I have checked:
1) In ADSIEdit, Exchange System Objects properties: Object Version =11221.
2) In ADSIEdit, Services>Microsoft Exchange>Organization: Object Version =11222
3) In ADSIEdit, RangeUpper value of ms-Exch-Schema-Version-Pt object = 14625
However, When I run the Exchange BPA, it reports that the domain is prepped for Exchange Server 2007 Service Pack 1 (In informational items). This is an informational item and not a warning or alert. However, I am concerned. Is this normal, and will it affect
the migration to Exchange 2010?
Thanks,
HA

Hello Ha20,
Based on my experience, it will not affect the migration. However, it’s recommended to prepare the schema again to avoid any potential issues.

Confusion about BPM suite and BPA suite

Hi,
I'm very very new to Oracle BPM.
I just checked the website and found Oracle provides two suites - BPM and BPA for business process management. I'm quite confused what's the difference of their usage? It looks to me that they are very similar to each other in functional.
Is there any article that has already explained their difference?
btw: if i want to choose a suite just for modeling, implementation and monitoring purpose, does that mean a BPM suite is more suitable?
Thank you
Lesley

Hi Lesley,
BPA is an robust process modeling tool used by business analysts to model both their processes and the entire enterprise. BPA has many different types of diagrams that let you see the different levels of decomposition and abstraction. As you'd exect, BPA has a robust process simulation capability. If you hit the BPA forum (Business Process Analysis Suite you'll get more information about it from experts in BPA.
Oracle BPM was built and architected from the beginning as full life cycle Business Process Management (BPM) tool. It is similar to BPA in that it supports process modeling, documentation and simulation. I use the same diagram to explain the process to executives, managers, IT, SME and business analysts. As a business analyst, the tool is not complicated and can be learned in just a couple hours.
Here's where the two differ. Oracle BPM was architected from the beginning as a full featured Business Process Management tool that implements and monitors business processes. Its capabilities include:
<li> Logic - BPA is not a BPM tool so it is not intended to support the process logic needed for runtime. To support this, Oracle BPEL is used in conjunction with BPA. As a developer using Oracle BPM, I use templates and drag and drop to create much of my logic. Once I catalog an object it can be reused across multiple projects either by using the Project Dependency option or by importing the artifacts. I test my logic either by using the method editor debugger or at the process level. As I create objects used in my logic using Oracle BPM, I inherit attributes provided by introspected components. This means that if you have an ERP system object with 138 attributes, you do not have to rebuild this object from scratch in Oracle BPM.
<li> Runtime / Execute the Business Processes - End users interact with the processes at runtime using an OOTB Workspace. End users are given various roles. When they log into the Workspace, the end users only see the work item instances that are in the roles that they have been assigned. There is an Engine that stores the work item instance information as it flows through the processes at runtime. The Engine is like a traffic cop, ensuring that the right work item instance goes to the right person in the right activity at the right time.
<li> UI - The End user interface screens and complex end user interaction with a variety of screens can be built inside the Oracle BPM toolset's editor. The forms you build are automatically presented to end users in the Workspace.
<li> Integration to Existing IT Assets - Oracle BPM can expose and consume IT components directly or through a service bus. Once consumed, the components can be used by any process needing to invoke them at runtime.
Hope this helps,
Dan
