BPM TOOL, what is Visual Composer Vs any other BPM Tool

Could you please share information regarding using a modeling tool to author business process [as-is/to-be]
ours is new implemantation and we already own sap business suite software, and our implementation /configuration Team is considering of using a bpm tool to do capture the processes.
my question is what leverage can we take of Visual Composer ? when compared with other BPM Tool.

If you have license for SAP Suite, then there is lot of things you can leverage with VC than it being useless if otherwise.
1. You can combine the output from the quick design and code free modeling environment of Visual Composer with the output from a full coding environment like Web Dynpro ABAP or BSP? Actually you can do just such a thing thanks to Portal Eventing. You can trigger event from VC. Yes, you can combine ABAP and VC
2. You can extend Visual Composer through Web Services
3. You can do an MDM integration in VC - combining data from varied sources
4. You can build a Web Services Based Visual Composer Application. Visual Composer has the capability to easily link to and consume a web service from within the SAP NetWeaver Visual Composer storyboard.
Also, if you are using BSP, these applications can be linked into a Visual Composer application. The linking is done via portal eventing. Linking these two technologies into a single application with receiving and parsing the Visual Composer event string from within ABAP.
5. SAP has released 300+ Enterprise Services and there are many ways to consume these. A BPX can use Visual Composer and the Composite Application Framework (CAF) to consume SAP Enterprise Services using MDD - Model drived development.
6. SAP NetWeaver Visual Composer users can develop rich graphical interfaces that extend current investments in their SAP NetWeaver infrastructure by using Flex technology (colloboration with Macromdeia) , and businesses can gain credible, clear and comprehensive business insights through new analytics solutions. There are 100+ IS specific Analytic Applications.
With the new improvements in VC 7.0 it is very clear that the future benefits align and will be much more leveraged with Visual composer
Hope this helps
Cheers

How to create a pop up calendar in adobe acrobat or any other adobe tool via adobe javascript ?No third party tools needed(Eg:formrouter)

I want to create a pop up calendar in adobe acrobat or any other adobe tool via adobe javascript in a PDF form .
I wish to create the calendar without any third party tool.
I found few options like formrouter and also pdf scripting.
But I was to create the calendar via pure Adobe Javascript. If no such option is there inbuilt pop up calendar control in any adobe tool to design the PDF form and afterwards save the same as PDF.

All 3 of the options provide are all JavaScript. There is no plug-in used. You do need to place the JavaScript code text file into a special folder so that the menu and tool bar tools that allow execution of the JavaScript code and associate the pop-up calendar with a specific field.

If someone has used Xcelsius 2008, and suddenly there is requirement to design the dashboard in any other BO tool, then will he/she be able to design the dashboards as comfortably as in Xcelsius.

Hi,
Each and every tool has its own flexibility to run. Coming to your question, the use of dashboards is to view the data by more interactive other tool cannot comprise it. when you say, if i want to develop the same sort of requirement in other BO tool, then you need to check with positive and negative of the tool to accommodate your logic.

Unable to add visual composer UI to a BPM task in CE 7.2.

Hello
I am using CE 7.2 trial version. I am not able to add a visual composer UI component to a task (BPM task). Can any body explain how to do?
I have created the visual composer component and deployed in the server. It is working fine independently.
Created the Process dc and added the VC DC in the public part.
Created the task and selected Unified UI import wizard, and selected UI technology as visual composer, but it is not listing any ui components.
Can anybody suggest the correct method to do.
Thanks and regards
Sajith P

Hi Sajith,
I can assume that you are using the start event either to initialise some values in your VC or
maybe you are using the start event with all bank values just as a pre-requisite to integrate BPM with VC.
The end event will expect a return value at the end of the VC activity. Since you are using a BPM the VC application will be displayed in the Task of the user's UWL. How do you manage the response of the end event here?
I think you are using the response of end activity to go ahead with your BPM process. Please confirm and share your thoughts.
Thanks,
Pritish

How to use BEx or Visual Composer to visualize 3rd party tool data?

Hello,
could you give me ideas how to visualize non-SAP warehouse data with BEx or Visual Composer?
I know that one option is virtual provider with connection to external DW. I do not want to load data into BW.
Is there any other way? If yes, how it can be done?
Thanks,

3.3 Connectivity and Interoperability
This section briefly describes:
The means of connecting Visual Composer Storyboard to the required back-end systems
The technology environments to which models composed in Storyboard can be deployed
Connectivity with Back-End Systems
Visual Composer provides tools that let you connect via the portal to back-end applications defined in the portal system landscape. This connection enables you to import into your model the relevant function modules on which you want to base your iViews. The imported function modules are referred to as data services.
Normally, you can connect to any installation of a back-end application to import a data service, and then deploy the content to any portal that enables access to an instance of the same back-end application. However, if the customer installation of the back-end application includes customized function modules, you will need to import the data services in the customer environment, in order to retrieve the customized functions.
Most connections to back-end systems are accomplished using the SAP and JDBC connectors deployed automatically as part of the connector framework installed with the portal. The SAP connector provides access to R/3 and BW systems, while the JDBC connector provides access to a wide range of databases, including Microsoft SQL, Oracle, DB2 and others.
BI connectors, installed separately in the portal, can be used to access a range of different data, including multidimensional cubes, relational tables and queries. Connectivity is based on defining a system in the portal landscape. You may define systems for the following connections:
BI XMLA
BI ODBO
BI JDBC
BI SAP Query
In addition, you can configure the BW system, installed automatically with the SAP connector, for accessing predefined queries.
The following table describes the systems from which Visual Composer can import data, and the connectors that are required. The Connector (second column) indicates the name of the connector used to install the system in the portal.

How to show BPM Reporting values in Visual Composer

Hi everybody,
i add a Reporting Activity to my current BPM Process. My purpose is to show the report in Visual composer.
Unfortunately i don't know how to import the BPM Reporting Activity into VC?
Could anybody help me with a how-to-guide or a detailed description?
Best regards,
Sid

Hi,
Helpful information on this topic:
The whole subtree: Performing Process Analytics
Some quotes from the help.sap.com documentation:
Real-time analytics enables you to report against an operational system without using a BW system. Real-time analytics allows reporting on a subset of both generic process data and process context data. When performing real-time analytics, data is consumed and reports are displayed directly in the Visual Composer of the local system.
Reporting data is provided as DataSources to VC and you use the VC BI Kit to display the data.
Discovering BPM DataSources in Visual Composer:
3. Choose: View -> Task Panel -> Search to search for BPM DataSources. The Search dialog appears.
4. From the Select provider dropdown menu, select BI Data Sources.
5. From the System destination dropdown menu, select BI (Sql) Portal.
...but per my understanding, in order to be able to select "BI Data Sources", because all BPM Data Sources can be accessed from this choice only, you need to have BW, and you need to configure the connection between your BPM and BW??
Also, your own custom BPM Data Sources can be created only with the "Reporting Activity" in NWDS, Process Development perspective??

I am trying to locate my iphone - believe it was stolen. find my phone says phone is offline. what does that mean? any other known options for locating it?

What other options are available if your iphone is lost/stolen but it registers as "offline" on find my iphone location services? I imagine if I suspend the services, this eliminates the "find my iphone" features. Feel at a loss here. Anybody have any other information to share on this topic? Thanks.

You can put it in lost mode, which will be executed when it goes back online, if it ever does. See http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5668.

What are the NEW features what comes with the iPhone 6, what does not come with any other iphone?

I just bought an iphone 6, and i was wondering what NEW features the iphone 6 has what does not come of the other iphones?

Verizon is my internet provider and also my email software. How can I set Verizon in Firefox Applications under Options/Tools? I don't use any other software.

Whenever I want to send a message when at a website, I am forced to use outlook or the other options listed in applications in Tools.
How do I get Verizon listed?

No, forget the "mailto > use other". Sorry !
Once you have a Mail Client(like Thunderbird) installed & configured as your default for Mail in the '''CUSTOM''' section of Set Program Access and Computer Defaults, you can click on a Send To or MailTo link on a webpage and a New Message window will open with your default email account's address (i.e. verizon.net).
thanks and sorry again

Is there any way I can show the ratings and BPM of my tunes in Music or any other app?

I have a 128gb iPad air 2 and use it for my dance classes and would like to know if I can display the BPM & my ratings for tunes on my iPad? I currently use either Music app or Groove but cannot find a way to display these items

Ratings can be displayed one-track at a time, by topping on the title in the detailed view. BPMs can be displayed only in iTunes on your computer. Perhaps you could utilize Smart Playlists to group your tracks according to these criteria?
You can request features, point out bugs, etc, at Apple Feedback pages.

HT2736 2 of my numbers are partly scratched off and I can't tell what they are is there any other way to redeem? Help

Two of my numbers on my iTunes gift card are partly scratched off is their another way to redeem.....help

See this support article:
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1292
If you can't get the card to work after perusing that page, contact the iTunes Store Support; instructions are provided in that article.
Regards.
Forum Tip: Since you're new here, you've probably not discovered the Search feature available on every Communities page, but next time, it might save you time (and everyone else from having to answer the same question multiple times) if you search a couple of ways for a topic, both in the relevant forums and in the Apple Knowledge Base, before you post a question.

Visual Composer - MDA in SAP universe

Hello all,
OMG released a bunch of standards around model driven architecture (MDA). From my point of view Visual Composer is the tool inside CAF to design solutions according to the MDA philosophy.
But Visual Composer uses its own proprietary standards to save and execute models (GML and XGL). How do Visual Composer supports OMG standards? How do buzzwords like MOF, PIM and XMI match into our SAP universe?
Any documentation around these topics?
Best regards,
Markus

Hello again,
It seems anybody has a good and fast answer for my question. So I will try to draft an answer on my one and looking forward for your comments!
From my point of view Visual Composer is a domain specific tool to design process flow and ui of business applications. What we do with VC is (in fact) domain specific modeling (DSM) using a specific modeling language (DSL). VC generates a model for design time (GML) and for run time (XGL). The model transformation is executed by deploying the application.
I think GML defines a platform independent model (PIM) and XGL defines a platform specific model (PSM). GML defines the graphical syntax for our model, too. I suppose it also defines the action semantics.
OMG uses UML as a modeling language based on the meta model MOF. UML and MOF a very generic approaches for modeling. In fact GML serves as a meta model for every instance of an application in VC. Iu2019m quite unsure, if there is an underlying meta model for GML (perhaps in form of a public XML schema?).
Unfortunately I didnu2019t found any documentation about the transformation process GML-XGL. Perhaps SAP adopted the QVT standard for model-2-model transformationsu2026?

Markus

Wat is visual composer?

hi
i m new to visual composer can any one give me a gist of it? Thanks.
[email protected]

vln

Hi,
Visual composer is a visual modeling tool where u can create applications raplidly without writing any code.Evrything can be done by dragging and dropping appropriate objects and asscoiating them.
The code will be generated by the visual composer itself.
Visual composer is mainly targeted on business experts who know what the applications should do, but have little idea about coding.
One important thing to note is that visual composer still cant be used to develop a full blown comprehensive application.In this stage it can be used for prototyping and for small applications..
And in some areas we have to still rely on coding..
