Calling process flow / mapping from comand line on client machine?

Looking to call a process flow / mapping from a commad line on the client machine. Online research has found some attempts at it, but nothing solid. I'd like to test this functionality so that I can eventually build these calls into a wrapper used by an enterprise scheduler.
Thanks

what oleg2 is writins is oke but I think
it is easier to write you one wrap around this sql-call, because then you have to parse some parameters and do other additional stuff
PROCEDURE "P_EXECUTE_WORKFLOW"("P_WORKSPACE" IN VARCHAR2, "P_LOCATION_NAME" IN VARCHAR2, "P_WORKFLOW_NAME" IN VARCHAR2, "P_CUSTOM_PARAMS" IN VARCHAR2 DEFAULT '","', "P_SYSTEM_PARAMS" IN VARCHAR2 DEFAULT '","') ;

Function to call Process-flows/mapping from SQL

Hi All,
Can any one of you send me the function to call process-flows/mappings (eg: I have 10 mapping/Process-flows). It is an urgent requirement pending in my final testing.
Plz help me in this regard.
Regards

Hi
All information that you need, you can find in $ORACLE_HOME/owb/rtp/sql/. BAsically all executions in owb is called through wb_rt_api_exec package.
for example:
declare
variable exec_return_code number;
procesflow varchar2(255);
plsqlname varchar2(255);
begin
-- Initialize Return Code
exec_return_code := owbrt_sys.wb_rt_api_exec.RESULT_FAILURE;
-- Run Task
procesflow:='WF_X1';
plsqlname:='MP_X1'
exec_return_code := owbrt_sys.wb_rt_api_exec.run_task('OWF_LCTN','PROCESS',procesflow, ' ' );
if exec_return_code = 1 then
exec_return_code := owbrt_sys.wb_rt_api_exec.run_task('STAGE_LCTN','PLSQL',plsqlname, ' ' );
end if;
end;

Calling Process Order API from SOA BPEL

Hi. It's been from weeks and weeks to months and months since i am trying to call process order api from soa bpel to generate sale order header. Passing org_id, responsibility and username to invoke activity. the response i am getting from Oracle Applications Adapter is
<X_RETURN_STATUS>U</X_RETURN_STATUS>
<X_MSG_COUNT>2</X_MSG_COUNT>
<X_MSG_DATA xsi:nil="true"/>
Can anybody help me here? do anybody know what's going on?

The best way to deal this would be to first call the Order API standalone with the same input which you are using from BPEL process.
You can test Order API from Toad or any other PL/SQL tool and see if it returns the same response. Else write out the exact steps how you are trying to call the API.

Sequence in process flow (output from mapping)

I have a mapping where I am using sequence operator and creating a record in the target table I need to pass this variable out of the mapping and as input to another mapping. I am not able to pass the sequence out of the mapping. How can we assign values to mapping output variables however I do it it says you cannot assign variables to output parameters from the mapping it says.
mapping input parameter and mapping output parameter are intended to be executed before and after the data flow of the mapping and cannopt accept inputs from any part of the data flow.
Any ideas as to how this can be done.
Can a pluggable mapping be called in a process flow.
Thanks
Edited by: user8023060 on Jun 23, 2009 6:08 AM

Hi,
write a plsql-function that executes returns seq_XXX.currval (or, to be on the safe side, select the value from your table).
Assign that value to an output attribute.
And no, pluggable mappings can just be included from other mappings, there is no way to execute them directly.

Carsten.

Process flow/map performance issues

We have some issues with our OWB-based application and we're looking to find out if there are different ways we could be using the tool, or features/options we've missed.
We are trying to maintain a near real time feed of data from a front end system into our warehouse which was built using OWB 10.2.0.3 over a 10.2.0.4 database. The bulk of the application consists of OWB maps with a few hand-written PL/SQL objects, all executed in a series of hierachical OWB process flows. Maps/transformations are executed either sequentially or in parallel where the referential integrity of the model allows.
The problem is that we have around 150 tables in the datamart which could potentially require updating on each refresh cycle, although in practice only a few tables have any activity on a typical refresh cycle. The cycle consists of loading data into a set of staging tables, and from there the data is transformed into the main schema, often with multiple maps per target table.
On every cycle we run hundreds of maps, the vast majority of which process zero rows. Each map runs quickly and efficiently in its own right but collectively they add up to a 5 - 10 min cycle even if there is no data to process.
There are 2 avenues which we'd like to explore and would be grateful if anyone could provide any pointers/suggestions :-
1) It appears that each map opens and closes its own database session when it executes. I presume this was done because a single process flow could be constructed with maps executing in different target schemas, but we know that's not the case for us. We'd like to know if there is anyway to configure the database connection at a higher level (eg. process flow) so it opens a connection once and executes each of the maps (database packages) in that one session.
Our DBAs are experimenting with 'shared server' settings at a database level which may help to some degree but won't be the whole story.
2) Another option is simply to run less maps eg. load the staging area as now, collate stats on which staging tables contain new data, and then apply some logic such that subsequent maps only execute if the relevant staging table(s) contain(s) some new data, otherwise bypass that map.
We tried experimenting with the 'Pre Mapping Process' operator, but essentially that just generates another function call from the map package, so we still have the overhead of opening a database session for each map to run the package. Minimal gain.
We thought about adding a function call in the process flow before each map and then branching to either execute/bypass the map as approriate, but the function call still requires opening/closing of a database session each time so, once again, minimal gain.
What we really want is some way for a map or process flow to check without logging onto the database repeatedly.
Any ideas on the above, or other potential solutions anyone could suggest, would be greatly appreciated.

Process Flow - mapping not inserting data

I have a process flow that executes three mappings in sequence i.e Map1 -> Map2 -> Map3.
However, sometimes the process flow will execute and no data will be inserted by MAP2, other times it runs ok. If I run the mappings directly data is always inserted.
The only workaround I've found is to add a WAIT of 10sec between Map1 and Map2 in the process flow.
Has anyone come across anything like this and how did you work around or fix it?
OWB 10.2.0.3 btw.
Cheers
Si
PS. transitions are ok.

Hi
If you have any map inputs make sure they are also declared in the processflow map - you basicly need to bind them.
You probably need to investigate from the beginning to understand your result of incoherent data.
What I would to first is.
1. Generete an intermediete code - choose your table as outgroup.
2. Review the code - are there any loading hints ?
3. Debug the map
Check your locations.
If everything seems right then the problem should lay on your workflow manager.
Remember that the workflow manager has only one namespace, so watchout for mapping name. I had strange executions on my PF because one of my maps had a "½" in the name.
Check the settings of the map - if you have enterd a set based run in your map and a row based run in the processflow.
Remember the setting in the processflow is the "superior" one
Just ideas what you can do.
Cheers

DYNPRO_SEND_IN_BACKGROUND short dump in BW while calling Process chain remotely from APO

Hi,
While trying to call a process chain remotely from SCM APO system to SAP BW system - we are getting below short dump -
Short text
    Screen output without connection to user.
What happened?
    Error in the ABAP Application Program
    The current ABAP program "SAPLSDH4" had to be terminated because it has
    come across a statement that unfortunately cannot be executed.
Checked the RFC connection between APO and BW system through SM59 and it is working fine - Can anyone pease suggest what configuration could be missing which might be causing this short dump.
Thanks in advance.

Error when using wb_rt_api_exec.run_task api to call process flow

Dear All,
I am using OWBV 10.2.0.3 and currently have some issue with it.
I have a process flow and I'm executing it using wb_rt_api_exec api.
When I ran it, that process flow failes with below error messages.
RPE-01003: An infrastructure condition prevented the request from completing.
RPE-01038: Failed to evaluate expression null. Please modify the expression, redeploy and retry again.
RPE-01003: An infrastructure condition prevented the request from completing.
RPE-02227: Cannot test Control Center user OWF_MGR. This user must match the login credentials of the evaluation location configured on owning module.
ORA-01017: invalid username/password; logon denied
But using same user when I log on to the OWB client I can run that process flow without any error. So it seems to be there is no any sesurity issues too.
Furthermore I have done below things.
OWF_MGR (Processflow user), OWB_MGR (repositiry user) and RUNTIMEUSR (user used to run the processflow) all registered under control center.
There are couple of forum post here. I followed all those and didnt work anything for me.
Early response highly regards,
mc

Hi,
look these forum threads {message:id=3140661} and {message:id=2695999}
I think you need connect with Design Center under user which you used for executing processflow and register workflow location

How to call iOS 6 Maps from App

Hi,
i am searching around for an answer but could not find one. I want to call ne the Maps app from mit App to show me the possible routes to my target location. Before iOS 6 my call looks like this:
http://maps.google.com/maps?saddr=37.785834,-122.406417&daddr=49.305500,8.132570
The Google Maps app open as expected with the possible routes for selection. Now under iOS 6 i changed my call like this:
maps://q=&saddr=37.785834,-122.406417&daddr=49.305500,8.132570&view=map
This opens the new Maps app correctly but i get the following error:
Directions Not Available
Directions could not be found between these locations.
Whats the problem? Do i miss something?
greetings Mike

Before updating my iPhone the maps were great but with this new OS 6 the maps are not working...is there is anyway we can have the previous maps until they fix the problem?!!!

Process Composer - Mapping from a unbounded node

Hello
I´m following the documentation Workflow Pattern Coverage in SAP NetWeaver BPM 7.11 (http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/index?rid=/library/uuid/8026f177-f32f-2c10-b7b0-9cc31d92984d) to create a Process Composer with a "While" Loop.
According to page 23, I should use 2 variables to call my tasks: the "Batch" and the "Index". According to the document, I should "extract next line item from batch and increment the index". Incrementing the index its easy, I can make a simple data mapping. The problem is that I dont know how to extract a line from batch to call my task with this line.
I have the following source structure:
Node (0...n)
myString (string)
the target is strucutre:
inString (string)
I already tried many expressions but all are invalid:
Batch/Node[1]/myString
Batch/Node/myString
Batch/Node(1)/myString
How can I map that ?
Thanks ?

SNMP stat isn't updated by Sun WebServer if started from comand line

Reproduce steps:
- Configure server instance for SNMP monitoring( from webconsole or server.xml)
- restart snmp master agent and subagent server
- start server (/opt/SUNWwbsvr/https-server1/start)
Server information appears in SNMP start but its status(1.3.6.1.4.1.42.1.60.1.1.8) is always 0.
Woraround: start/stop sevrer from web admin console
and it starts to update SNMP start for next command line launches
Problems appears at
version: 6.1 SP4
platforms: Linux RHEL3, AIX.
(At Window all is fine.)
I'm wondering if somebody met this problem and perhaps knows the sollution.

Can you do the following and let us know the result :
(a) ps -ef | grep httpagt
(b) send a SIGHUP signal to httpagt process and then try to access after few seconds to see if it updates the status of the server.
kill -HUP <pid of httpagt>
(c) Can you see any log in <install_root>https-admserv/logs/log.httpagt ?
Are you running both instance and admin server as different users?

Voice call processing flow (cisco routers)

Hi,
i have a doubt regarding to, What is applied first by a router acting as a voice gateway (translation rule?, dial peer?)
i mean what is the call flow once the call starts to be processed by the router.
best regards,

Every CME is an independent system, you can surely steer calls anyway you want them to go via dial-peers, but it may get little challenging for some scenarios. Is there a reason you do not want to propose centrelized system such as BE6K?
What is your PSTN connectivity, is it SIP or TDM based i.e. PRI? If the second I dont see any voice cards, also do you have a requirement for any analog devices? If so where are they connected to?
HTH, please rate all useful posts!
