BPM 11g and PAPI

Hello everyone,
Do you know if BPM 11g supports PAPI? I can't find information about this. Are there any alternative like PAPI?
Thank so much for any information.

BPM 11g and Webcenter integration

Hi, I have a lot of doubts about how to use BPM 11g 'inside' or integrated with Webcenter.
I need some tutorials, links and docs if possible.
thanks!

Did you try the product documentation?

Integrating BPM 11g and BAM

Hi everyone,
I'm using Oracle SOA Suite PS4 (11.1.1.5) on Oracle Linux 6, 64-bit.
I have a simple BPM project, from which I want to send data to BAM to be able build a BAM dashboard.
I went through all neccessary steps:
1. I configured BAM adapter
2. I configured BPMN engine for BAM integration
3. I imported BAM Monitor Express
4. I configured BPM project (enabled BAM and provided JNDI,...)
I've repeated previous steps several times and I'm pretty sure that I didn't do any mistake. I also tried to restart servers, etc.
However, when I deploy the project the BI data object is not created as it should be and also when I create a new composite instace, the following errors occur in SOA server log:
1. Errror

There is no error on BAM server so it looks like the SOA server (BAM adapter) can't connect to BAM (java.net.ConnectException: Connection refused).
Can anyone help, please?

Sonny

Hi,
I also had the same issue with 11.1.1.5. The data objects were not getting created. I manually created the data object using BAM Architect. And that solved my issue. I was able to see graphs in BAM.
However, 11.1.1.4 is working fine. It creates the data objects for BAM during deployment.

BPM 11g install and configuration with Webcenter

Hi,
I am new to this BPM so need some help in installation. Where can I download the latest version of BPM 11g and for installating it what steps do I need to follow. Also I need to integrate Webcenter also so for webcenter integration what do I need to install and configure with BPM 11g.
Do I need to install webcenter full suite for integration with BPM and if so can I install both BPM and webcenter in one home iteself. Where can I find some documentation arround installing BPM and configuring with Webcenter.
Thanks

Hi,
Need some info on the install I have to install both SOA BPM 11g 11.1.1.3 and Webcenter 11.1.1.3 on the same box. I have installed the SOA BPM 11.1.1.3 but wanted to find out what is the best option of installing Webcenter 11.1.1.3 as I need to integrat SOA BPM 11g 11.1.1.3 and Webcenter 11.1.1.3. Here is what I think are the options but don't know which one should I go for or is there any other option but the fact is I need to install both on the same box.
*1. Should I install Webcenter in a separate HOME in doing so I will end up installing weblogic again and then install webcenter. Will endup having two ORACLE HOMES one for SOA BPM and one for Webcenter.*
*2. OR should I install Webcenter in the same home as SOA BPM and create a new domain in doing so what happens to some of the components that are installed when installing SOA BPM.*
*3. OR should I just extend the SOA BPM Domain and have both SOA BPM and Webcenter installed in the same domain. I believe this will only add the webcenter components but don't know if there are any issues.*
And help is really appreciated..
Thanks

Supporting PAPI in Oracle BPM 11g ?

Hi All,
For Oracle BPM 11g , Is "PAPI" still support for Oracle BPM 11g ?
Furthermore, Is there any Hand-on Tutorials for Oracle BPM 11g ?
Many Thanks in Advance...
Pearapon S.

I think with 11g, the starting point for dealing with a Process* should be the Composite [http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E14571_01/apirefs.1111/e10659/oracle/soa/management/facade/Composite.html] .
From Composite::getComponents() you should be able to get handle(s) to the process(es) deployed in the composite.
*IMHO, in most common usecases you really need to just interact with the human workflow services referred to earlier in this thread.

Question on BPM 11g Workflow Services

Hi,
There was no out of the box support feature which would enable the end users ( agents ) to fetch a work item one at a time from some queue . This allocation/fetch would be done on the basis of some algorithm ( SLA, Priority etc ) . We developed this custom feature through the APIs provided in BPM 10g - Process API ( aka PAPI ). Now we have to port this custom feature to Oracle BPM 11g and there is no equivalent support for PAPI available in BPM 11g . There is another API - workflow services , but we are not sure if it will support the same feature as we are struggling to get Oracle BPM 11g installed. Request you to kindly help us in identifying if the same functionality can be achieved in BPM 11g.

BPM 11g ids:getUsersInAppRole function

Hello,
I'm working on BPM 11g, and I'm trying to use the getUsersInAppRole function but it returns multiple nodes since there are more than one user in the role, then while trying to assign it to a XML list of strings it throws an exception. I think I should use a transformation to achieve the assignment, but what do I use as a source element since it is the result of a function and I don't know what type it returns?
thanks

Hi Josué,
Let me preface this by saying I'm not especially proud of this solution. It's a workaround to a bug (at least I think it is a bug) in 11.1.1.5.
Here are the steps I did. Let me know if one or more of these do not make sense.
1. Before entering the subprocess, I populate a 'parts' variable (a component variable that is a Types.Participants) from my method call (know you're using 'getUsersInAppRole' - I'm using a different method that returns this type). This stores the array of userObject (a Types.UserObjects type component).
2. Create the subprocess using the 'MultiInstance' loop characteristic and uncheck the 'Is Sequential' checkbox. For the subprocess's Loop Cardiality I used the XPath Expression
count(bpmn:getDataObject('parts')/ns:userObject)In the Completion Condition box, check the Use Expression checkbox and enter the XPath Expression
bpmn:getActivityInstanceAttribute('subprocess0', 'loopCounter') <= count(bpmn:getDataObject('parts')/ns:userObject)3. In the Arguments Definition tab, the incoming needs to be (in my case anyway) a variable of the type 'Types.UserObjects'. This means that you're passing in the whole array of users instead of a single userObject. The reason I had to do this is because when you click the arguments 'Use Associations' checkbox and edit it and click the Expression Builder icon, the loopCounter is not present in the list of available variables (the loopCounter variable is used by the subprocess to keep track of the loop count that you're currently on). Because it is not in the list, you cannot just pass in the single UserObject.
4. You can work around this problem by retrieving it using a Script activity (or using the incoming associations to any activity) and setting a 'part' variable (a variable of the type Types.UserObject) to
parts.userObject[loopCounter]It's odd that you can get the loopCounter variable everywhere inside the subprocess activity you need it except for inside the incoming Arguments Definition tab.
Hope this helps,
Dan

Send Mail in BPM 11g

Hi.
I´m using BPM 11g and i want to send mail to different roles.
Someone knows how to implement a service to send mail..?

Human tasks in 11g have some out of the box capabilities for notifications (email being one of the transport mechanisms). For details refer to the documentation:
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E14571_01/integration.1111/e10224/bp_hwfmodel.htm#BABICIAH
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E14571_01/integration.1111/e10224/bp_designtf.htm#CHDJBIDE
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E14571_01/integration.1111/e10226/ns_config.htm#BABJFFAF
If the out of the box capabilities don't do what you need, then you can use the User Messaging Service API or javax.mail API to implement your custom functionality.

Calling External Application from BPM 11g

I am new to BPM 11g and need to create the ability to call an external application (UCM) from within BPM. Will a web service adapter, with a type of Reference, accomplish this? How can I add security to this web service.
The second question is how can I add an adapter that alllows me to specify our own source code? In this scenario we would write the Java to formulate the SOAP call directly, thus allowing us to add the security into the call directly.
Any information is much appreciated.
Thanks,
Randy

Hi Randy,
You can call an external application using a spring component integration, I was just able to get that to work with a help from another forum member here is a viewlet that demos the spring integration:

Call subprocesses dynamically at runtime in BPM 11g

Hi
I have a requirement of executing a subprocess from a main process. The challenge I am facing is that, the name of the sub process to be executed is going to be known at runtime.Following is my scenario:
I have a main process which gets an XML input and contains a context based on which a search is made on the DB. The DB has the mappings of the context and the sub process names.
Now how can I implement this in BPM 11g (Jdeveloper 11.1.1.3). Is there any functionality provided to call a subprocess at runtime?
Thanks in advance

I am sorry Kshama, you are using BPM 11g and I did not notice it.
I am using BPM 10g based on eclipse IDE and those instructions provided by Daniel was for this version. I am not able to suggest you how to perform similar actions in 11g but I guess that except for the interface, the rationale behind is still the same. Maybe you could read that thread and use it to help point yourself in the right direction within the documentation.
Hope someone else who knows better the 11g platform came to help you.
Bye,

What is similar to BPM 10g PAPI Caching in BPM 11g?

Hi,
Earlier we were using BPM 10g where for BPM workspace/Custom Worklist, PAPI caching was used. Now we are looking for using BPM 11g where HWF (Human Workflow) APIs are present instead of PAPI. Can anybody tell me that is it possible to use caching in HWF APIs and how it is done?
Thanks
Edited by: user10778361 on May 25, 2012 12:04 PM

One of teh difference which I noticed is that BPM Workspace had the left pane where the integrated ADF Applications were visible whereas Worklist didnot have that option.
Some more prime differences here -

BPM 11G comments and file attachments issue on human tasks

Hi all,
We have used JDeveloper 11G and SOA suite 11G + BPM (with PS1,PS2) to create and deploy a simple BPM process. The process consists of two swim-lanes ( Business Analyst and Snr Executive). The BA swim-lane has a human task which which initiates the process and the second swim-lane (SE) has a voting task. Both forms were auto generated.
------ Process steps ----
step 1. The initiator of the process( Business analyst) submits a document and adds comments on the form. (1st swim lane)
step 2. The task is received by the Snr Executive group and they need to accept or reject the document.
step 3. If any of the Snr Execs rejects the document, the process flow goes back to the Business analyst(the requester or initiator) for review.
(the voting group is able to share comments and the file attachments).
step 4. The business analyst receives a task on her list. This task list should have the comments made by the Snr Execs who rejected the document. ---This is where we are having a problem. The business Analyst, receives the task, but the document and comments are not updated. This still shows the original document and comments, she sent when initiating the process.
We have opened a SR with My Oracle support and it was suggested we apply a hot fix 9958661, which was done (see output below). Unfortunately this did not solve the problem.
Questions:
1. Is the default behavior of BPM 11G ?
2. How can we change this behavior to do what we want ?
---------------------------------------opatch update output -----------------------------------------------------------
ApplySession adding interim patch '9958661' to inventory
Verifying the update...
Inventory check OK: Patch ID 9958661 is registered in Oracle Home inventory with proper meta-data.
Files check OK: Files from Patch ID 9958661 are present in Oracle Home.
The local system has been patched and can be restarted
I any suggestions would be welcome.

Ok, this is what i did:
- I have a Process Data Object called CustomComments with just 1 attribute called comments.
- I have added that object to my user screens (adf page)
- Changed its columns att to 65 and rows to 8 (i chose that layout)
- Used a tableLayout to add an icon next to this text area to allow the user to add comments:
<af:commandImageLink shortDesc="addCommentImage" id="addCommentImage" partialSubmit="true" icon="/hw_images/new_ena.png">
     <af:clientListener method="myFunction" type="click"/>
     <af:clientAttribute name="attributeName" value="attributeValue"/>
</af:commandImageLink>
I use that clientAttribute to send the logged user to the javascipt.
- I added this after the af:document on top of the page to make the customComments readonly to the user (you need to do it here because if you set it in the properties the element is not updated later), so the user has to use the button i put to add comments:
<f:facet name="metaContainer">
     <f:facet name="metaContainer">
     <af:resource type="javascript">
          function readOnly(){
               var comms = document.getElementById("it1::content");
               comms.setAttribute("readOnly","true")
     </af:resource>
</f:facet>
<af:clientListener method="readOnly" type="load"/>
- Somewhere i added the javascript the commandLink calls:
<trh:script id="myScripts">
     function addComment(evt){
          var commentArea = document.getElementById("it1::content");
var user = evt.getSource().getProperty("user");
var comm = prompt("Please enter your comment: ","");
          if (comm != null) {
               if (comm != ""){
                    if (commentArea.value !=""){commentArea.value = commentArea.value + "\n"}
                    commentArea.value = commentArea.value + "user.value" + " : " + comm;
</trh:script>
After all this, you have an object that carries the comments from one screen (UI project) to another and is updated each time.
I know it may not be the perfect solution and that it could be improved a lot, but so far it does what i need so i use it.
If there is anything i wasnt clear enough, please let me know. Hope this helps.

BPM 11g: JAVA API and Webservice API

Who knows BPM 11g: JAVA API and Webservice API?
Customer want to call BPM 11g between Heterogeneous systems, such .net framework. One way is use webservice API, I think, but where can find it? thank you

When you create a BPM application in 11g, you're actually creating a SOA composite application with a BPMN component in the composite. From within the BPMN editor, you can specify the interface (parameters) of each start node in the process. If you select a start node, look at the implementation tab, you'll see a properties group that lets you define the interface one property at a time, or by selecting an interface from the catalog.
By defining these properties you're also defining the shape of the Web Service interface that will automatically be created in the composite. If you switch to the composite view, you'll see your BPMN process with a wire to it from a Web Service that's generated from the interface defined in the BPMN editor. The naming convention is the BPMN process name with ".service" appended. When you deploy the BPMN process, the web service will also be deployed, since it's also part of the composite. From Enterprise Manager (EM) you can test the service and get the WSDL, which could be used by other applications (e.g. .NET) to start and interact with a process instance.
This is one of the advantages of the 11g architecture. The composite exposes services to consumers/clients. The implementation could have been BPEL, BPMN, a Mediator, Java/EJBs, or any combination working together. To the consumer, it's just a web service.
In case your next question was about security ... you won't see properties about security in the BPMN editor. You use Web Service Manager to apply security or other constraints to the web service endpoint.

Any support for papi in bpm 11g ?

Difference between oracle bpm 10g and 11g

Newbie: I am trying to understand 10g. The basic questions I have is
1)What is the difference between 10g and 11g?
2)What is the infrastructure & skillset needed for me to do implementation in 10g?
3)How is migration from 10g to 11g is accomplished?
Any resource links that would help me to get started with 10g would be appreciated.
