BPM and UI5 interaction

Hi all,
I'm investigating how BPM human-centric tasks can be developed with UI5.
I've gone through the available excellent blogs, so I'm aware of the OData API exposed by BPM.
However I still have one major question:
For a number of reasons, I might need to deploy my UI5 application on a system other than the Process Engine itself, it might not even be a Netweaver server. In the official help I can see as a prerequisite:
The UI component you want to assign runs on the same Application Server Java (AS Java) as the Process Server, that is, where the process definition with the task is deployed.
Does this mean that I cannot use web application at arbitrary locations to create my human-centric BPM tasks?
Thanks, regards
Vincenzo

Hi Vincenzo,
this is currently not possible, but we have it already on our roadmap.
Best Regards,
Andre

  • BPM and database interaction

    I am writing my thesis on processes and use the OBPM product.
    I need to connect it to an external database. I managed to make some steps towards this goal, but the big picture is missing.
    Can anyone show me a documentation on this topic or help me directly?
    Thanks in advance
    Edited by: bpmL on Feb 2, 2009 3:13 AM

    I need help with this. I tried to make my BPM object to fill one pull-down list from Oracle database and I just don't get it to work. I get a java nullpointerexception.
    The weird thing is that when I debug the method, it works fine. But when I open the presentation in workspace, it just gices out the nullpointerexception. How can it work in debug but not when run in workspace?
    The code is this:
    listValues as String[String]
    externalResource as String
    sql as String
    externalResource = "tuotaDB"
    sql = "SELECT DISTINCT TYOKAN.TUN AS TUN, " +
    "TYOKAN.SELI1 AS SELI1 FROM TYOKAN, TYO_KP WHERE TYO_KP.TUN = TYOKAN.TUN " +
    "AND TYOKAN.TUN IS NOT NULL AND TYOKAN.SELI1 IS NOT NULL "
    for each row in DynamicSQL.executeQuery(sentence : sql, implname : externalResource) do
    listValues[String(row["TUN"])] = String(row["SELI1"])
    end
    return listValues
    The name of the Oracle database external resource is tuotaDB and the name of the catalog item is TUOTA. I have imported the tables mentioned above into that cactalog.
    This is part of the error messages that I get:
    exception occurred running controller: fuego.xobject.runtime.components.XOInputController
    javax.servlet.ServletException: exception occurred running controller: fuego.xobject.runtime.components.XOInputController
    The task could not be successfully executed.
    Reason: 'java.lang.NullPointerException'.
    Caused by: java.lang.NullPointerException
    fuego.lang.ComponentExecutionException: The task could not be successfully executed.
    Reason: 'java.lang.NullPointerException'.

    Caused by: java.lang.NullPointerException
    fuego.lang.ComponentExecutionException: The task could not be successfully executed.
    Reason: 'java.lang.NullPointerException'.
    So, what have I done wrong? There are several different ways to write that code as mentioned already in this thread, but the results are the same. If I comment out the line adding values into list then the script goes through fine. But the script goes through fine in debug mode also, but not when run in workspace.
    Please, help me, I have spend a lot of hours into this...

    Hi,
    Sory, but I'm still not sure, how ADF comunicates with BPM (I know that it uses EJB services and hwtaskflow.xml). But a still don't have an answers for follwowing questions:
    1) I know ADF quite good. Having method in data controls (in our case getTaskDetails()) we need to invoke it somehow. I don't see anywher invokation of this method.
    2) In generated task flow there is some managed beans and params - what is role of them ? Having over 50 task flows , do I need it in all of them. Where can I find description of those beans and params
    3) In our approach we use BPM , ADF RC for UI and Business Components to persist data into database. Only data from payload we need is ID of master-level row. My question is - do I have to generate data controls for all human task ?. In my my opinion it should be only one communication point between BPM and ADF but not the same for all pair human task --> task flow.
    All infomation I need from BPM is:
    - task ID
    - task flow name (to open apriopriate tab in my application)
    - available outcomes
    - to know is BPM operation is enabled

  • BPM and SOA

    Hi all,
    I would like know your feeling about BPM and SOA.
    Are BPM and SOA on top one of the other from a stack point of view ?
    Or BPM and SOA are the two sides of the same coin ?
    In your opinion is BPM that deliver service orientation or service-orientation comes from something called SOA ?
    Thanks in advance for your feedbacks.

    Hello Pierluigi,
    Business Process Management (BPM) is a term used basically for two things:
    1. A way to run, monitor and improve your business execution (the Business part)
    2. The name of specific tooling to support the above (the IT part)
    There are non-techical aspects of BPM: there can be procudure changes, organization changes, role changes, product changes to achieve the goal of business improvement, which have nothing to do with IT. These are results of strategic, tactical or operational planning. Business process management is just a term for controlling and improving your processes: facilitated by anything which helps. (In BPM projects therefore some things might be better solved NOT trying to get everything automated.)
    Where automation can help this, the IT part gets involved.
    The IT part of BPM is where processes are modelled, controlled, monitored and changed through tooling. And tooling to run processes like workflow engines or process engines. Any form of process automation can be ranked under BPM. BPM as and IT concept than means that the processes are controlled and monitored by a separate component of your IT archtecture. This component in NOT actually performing system updates or transactions, it is merely administers the process-meta data of the execution, and orchestrates the events and actions which have to be performed to succesfully execute the process.
    Where SOA gets involved is when you apply the open web services standard to design your running components in your BPM solution. Web services to utilize and support the process, web services to help the user interaction, web services to support the business transaction, and web services to actually update the systems. So SOA is just a way of implementing and supporting a BPM solution. On enterprise level it is wise to take the SOA route because interoperability is key to make things work, and changes/additions/integrations can be made far more easily when using the open web services definition rather than proprietary implementations.
    The SOA design concept can also be used in non-BPM scenarios. When defining re-usable services which accomodate just simple transactions or look-up functions where no specific workflow is involved (PO Box lookup, search functions, etc.), web services can be a great way of providing an open interface to business logic.
    Summarizing: BPM and SOA are two completely separate concepts and can be implemented without each other. However, when applied on enterprise level, the SOA design pattern will help you achieve the business agility goals you might have with your BPM implementation.
    I hope this helps making things clear.

    Hello,
    I am truely confused by how you are attempting to achieve things.
    1. The Office 2013 package is only supported if deployed globally
    2. AppLocker is the way to restrict users from starting different applications
    3. Office 2013 is not supported to be published to users
    It seems you have issues with #3. Which is not supported. I am not saying it "doesn't" work, but considering you have issues with it - perhaps we can start by not doing it?
    Ok, so what do we have left;
    Per your statement, Office 2013 is published globally. Ergo, all shortcuts and applications should be available to all users.
    Is this true?

  • Is there a way to see on itunes to all my songs the bpm and the key to every song?

    I have some external programs such as BPM Analyser or Mixmeister that i can scan all my songs and have the bpm and the key to every song!Is there a Plug-in or something else that i can have that as a "category" on Itunes so dont need to open another program to do that?It will be useful to the same list to have all and don't need to use external program.If someone know something about that please help.

    There's a field and column for BPM in iTunes - control-click on any of the column headers to see the full list, from where you can select the BPM column to appear. This if course presumes that the utility you're using will write the BPM information into that field; most will. There's no specific field for the key signature, so the utility would have to write that information into another field such as the Comments.

  • Is it possible to add a drag and drop interaction to a called image in a contaner?

    this forum is my last hope =( i know how to do drag and drop
    by itself, however right now i have my flash set up so that when
    you click BUTTON A, it does:
    on (release) {
    _root.gotoAndPlay ("photo1");
    once it goes to "photo1", on that frame, i wrote actions on
    the frame to:
    var myMCL:MovieClipLoader = new MovieClipLoader ();
    myMCL.loadClip ("images/heritageBrochureFront.png",
    "container_mc");
    stop();
    so it loads my picture into the container. my question, once
    the image it in the container, can i add drag and drop interaction
    to it? i would really love an easy solution.

    yes. there are a couple of ways to do this.
    one is the create a child movieclip of container_mc and load
    into that child and assign your onPress/startDrag
    onRelease/stopDrag methods to container_mc.
    a second way is to load into container_mc (like you're
    currently doing), wait until loading is complete (ie, use the
    onLoad method of an mcl listener) and then assign your methods to
    container_mc.

  • Asynchronous, but need Ack without using BPM and IDocs.

    Hi Experts,
                     I would like to do a scenario i.e., "Asynchronous communication, but need Acknowledgement without using BPM and also without using IDocs whether it is sender side or receiver side". Please help me.
    Thanks in advance
    Srihari.

    Without using BPM will be little longer process. But the alternative way is to add one more receiver in the receiver determination and send some file to that location with the actual mapping getting executed for the actual receiver. and in the second interface you can get the file created at second receiver back to the source location. But this will be little long as compared to synchronous scenarios.
    Flow:
    Source
              Receiver 1--> Actual mapping as per requirement
              Receiver 2(For Ack)--> Create a mapping with blank file sent to Receiver
    Receiver 2-->File Adapter--> Source through 2nd mapping/interface and keep the File adapter pooling interval around 5 sec or less so that you can get the file back to source location.
    Regards

  • How can I include a success message in a drag and drop interaction - I don't see this option in the Actions on success options, and cannot figure it out?

    How can I include a success message in a drag and drop interaction - I don't see this option in the Actions on success options, and cannot figure it out?

    I suspected you used the eye icon on the timeline to hide the message, but that one has no impact whatsoever on the published version. It is only meant to be used for editing reasons on the stage, to hide objects temporarily on a crowded stage. It is confusing, certainly in CP8 where for both instances the same eye icon is used. In previous versions the Properties panel had a checkbox for 'Show in Output', which was IMO much clearer than this eye icon. But of course, that is only my personal opinion.

    is possible in acrobat reader fill in and save interactive PDF created with LiveCycle Designer?

    Hi,
    Only if the form has been Reader Enabled before it is sent out to the user with Reader.
    There are two ways of Reader Enabling the form. One using Acrobat Standard v9 or Acrobat Professional v8 (both have license restrictions). The other is to use LC Reader Extensions ES2, which is a server product (additional costs).
    Some info here:

    A search of the forums for "Reader Extensions" or "Reader Enable" will give more information.

  • Drag and Drop Interaction Scoring

    Hi-
    I've created a drag and drop interaction for a quiz with four
    objects. Each object has to match up to the correct spot in order
    for the user to get the answer correct. I've done this type of
    interactions before successfully and not had a problem with
    scoring.
    But this time .. the only thing I can see that's different
    about this quiz is that I'm not assigning any points in the "Score"
    field - I am instead using the Status of Correct Response alone.
    I've found that this interaction scoring works perfectly for my
    other quiz interactions but there seems to be a problem with the
    drag and drop - when the user moves the objects around and
    temporarily places an object in the wrong (or maybe even correct)
    spot, each of these movements is being racked up as correct in this
    interaction So, if there's an ambivalent user they're going to get
    many more points than is even supposed to be possible.
    I can't see anything different that I've done with this
    interaction other than the scoring. I changed to correct response
    scoring because it was the only way I could figure out how to reset
    the quiz score after the user leaves and comes back. (using
    TotalCorrect)
    Anyway, I'm open to ideas - even if it's not the scoring -
    any help would be appreciated!
    Thanks -
    Cammia

    Don't use the quiz knowledge objects and code yourself...?
    You'll find many on here who can help you with hand coding
    and probably none
    who know much about implementing those KO's who can answer
    questions. The
    reason is if you know enough to be able to answer questions,
    you know enough
    to know that these KO's are a short term crutch that cause
    long term
    problems.

  • Drag and Drop Interaction Wizard

    I am having problems with the Drag and Drop Interaction Wizard.  I am using Captivate (6.1) and when I launch the wizard I am able to select the drag objects and drop targets, but when I get to Step 3 (mapping), I am unable to map the drag sources to the drop targets.  When I double click on the drag source and draw the arrow to the drop target, the arrow disappears. 
    Has anyone else had this problem?  If so, what did you do about it?

    Hi,
    You do not want to double click on the object in Step 3. All you need to do to map the source to destination, on the Green Items you would notice a '+' symbol, drag and put them on the drop item, you would able to map them easily that way, double clicking them would deselect the object.

  • Does Safari support a interactive PDF with hidden layers? I'm on version  5.0.3 and the interactive PDF displays just fine, but our web development team tells me all the layers display when they view the same PDF on Safari.

    Does Safari support interactive PDFs with layers? Through the use of hidden layers and buttons we built in interactivity that allows the viewers to click on buttons to display different content. When I view the PDF in Safari 5.0.3 on my Mac OS 10.5.8 the PDF displays fine and the interactivity works. However our web design firm tell me the PDF displays all the hidden layers when they view it in Safari. Who's right?

    Try updating your Safari to the latest version, 5.0.5.
    Also check whether the rest of your system is up to date by going to Software Update in the Apple menu.
