Controlling on user assignment when starting a process programmatically

Hi all,
I m starting a process programmatically.Process initiation is working fine, but i also need to control on the user to which that process and task will be assigned to.
Please guide how can this be achieved.
Thanks and regards,
Sakshi

Hi George,
My scenario is :
I m using startProcess() method to start a process programmatically. I m using following line of code, that initiates the process:
rtm.startProcess(process, "HeaderUI(Start Demo)", "start process", user, roles, params, user);
In this, as per the documents that i found, the field, 'user' before roles refer to initiator and 'user' in the end of statement is some user.
Now if i tried to give two different values to both these user, so that initiator of the process is different person and the user working on tasks will be different then in that case it throw error and do not allow me to give different user values.
Make a note that the roles list that i m passing is an empty list.
So is it possible to assign process to a different user and different users for different actions inside the process.
Please guide.
Thanks and Regards,
Sakshi

Assigning Group(of users) to Role when starting a process programmatically

Hi All,
I m starting a process programmatically(using startProcess()).
Process initiation is working fine, but i need to assign a 'Group' to the role, and not a user. It is a portal group, available at portal end only. How can this be done?
Please guide.
Thanks and Regards,
Sakshi

you can use the following code
import com.sap.caf.eu.gp.process.api.GPProcessFactory;
import com.sap.caf.eu.gp.process.api.IGPProcess;
import com.sap.caf.eu.gp.process.rt.api.IGPProcessRoleInstanceList;
import com.sap.caf.eu.gp.process.rt.api.IGPRuntimeManager;
import com.sap.security.api.IUser;
public void startProcess( java.lang.String processId )
   // retrieve the Runtime Manager
   IGPRuntimeManager rtm = GPProcessFactory.getRuntimeManager();
   // create an empty role assignment list
   IGPProcessRoleInstanceList roles = rtm.createProcessRoleInstanceList();
   // get the process role number
   int rolenum = process.getRoleInfoCount();
   // iterate over the required roles
   for (int i = 0; i < rolenum; i++) {
      // create a new role instance by specifying the role's unique name
      IGPProcessRoleInstance roleInstance = roles. createProcessRoleInstance(process.getRoleInfo(i).getRoleName());
      // add a user to the role instance
      roleInstance.addUser(roleUser);
      // add the new role to the assignment list
      roles.addProcessRoleInstance(roleInstance);

Random SP2 error when starting oracle process through SHELL script

Hi All,
I am trying to process data in n-Number of tables through a package. The package is called through a shell script to create start data processing. All calls to the package are in a sql script which is basically exec calls-
exec package.process ('T1','some param');
exec package.process ('T1','some param');
exec package.process ('T..n','some param');
I have a shell script which I use to execute commands from the sql script. There is a reason behind using shell script. For some strange reason, I keep on getting -
ERROR: logon denied - check for valid user with valid privileges
SP2-0640: Not connected
SP2-0641: "EXECUTE" requires connection to server
SP2-0640: Not connected
for some EXEC calls. Problem is, errors are generated at random. So in one run, I get error for T10,T11 and then in next run I might get for some other tables.
However, when I am running the sql script from the sql prompt, all calls to the package are executed without any problem.
This makes me think, it is something to do with the way database connection being initiated through UNIX.
Has anyone faced similar issue? Your help/gudence is much appreciated.
DB: Oracle 10.2.0.5
OS: SUN Solaris 10
Thanks in advance.

Login credentials are provided inside the shell script.
I did put a sleep(10) after EOF but no help. As mentioned if I run script file from sql promt, it runs without any hiccup. So it is the connection through the UNIX that is causing issue.
As pointed out by Sybrand, I agree that it does not make a sense to connect and commit after every sql statement. So decided to change the shell script and so far, the result from my initial tests on a sample data is quite encouraging. Hopefully I will have a solution.
But it will be nice to know why SHELL is doing what it is doing!!

Problem when starting BPEL Process Manager 10.1.2.0.2

Oracle BPEL Process Manager Full Cycle
An unexpected error has occurred while executing your request. This is most likely related to a defect in the Oracle BPEL Process Manager product. We apologize you can post the error to the OTN forum and we will get back to you as soon as possible.
That message is shown in WSIF's label of BPELAdmin.
Also starting show us
Cannot lookup jdbc datasource.
The process domain was unable to lookup the TX datasource "jdbc/BPELServerDataSource".
But jdbc looks good.

It couldn't be such difficult.
I have the jar's, the drivers in, the jdbc url connection as
url="jdbc:oracle:thin:[USERNAME/PASSWORD]@IP:PORT:SID"/>
Also I can connect via sqlplus with this string conn.
The main error I get is
"Cannot lookup jdbc datasource.

When downloading pictures, process freezes up - already restarted a few times but freezes up every time on different photos - help!!!

Question - What to do when 3G iphone freezes up when dowloading/syncing pictures??

I figured a work-around - when starting the process of downloading/syncing and the Wizard comes up, manually choose (check mark) the pictures that have not already downloaded. I did it by groups of about 200 and it worked. This time.

How Assigned TO field will be updated in "start Approval process" Task Action

I have created a reusable workflow in sharepoint designer. Am using “start Approval process“ Task Action. I have a question in “start Approval process“ Task Action.
I have username field in the list. I have created a task form field with name username in “start Approval process“ Task Action. I have assigned list username field to task field username field.
I have entered a user details in list user name field for new list item. Once the workflow has been started for that item a mail has been sent to the user whose name I have entered in the list user name field. Task has been assigned to the user whose name
I have entered in the list user name field.
When I have checked start Approval process task a send mail activity is present (Email Task notification currentitem:Assigned TO) .
I have not update Assigned To field explicitly.
1. Where / how the Assigned TO field is getting updated ?
2. Workflow Initiation and task creation will be done internally by the user who created the item in the list?
Thanks

Hi,
According to your post, my understanding is that you had questions about the “start Approval process“ Task Action.
When you add the “start Approval process“ Task Action, you need to to select the user who the task assign to.
To assign the user whose name you have entered in the list user name field, you add action as below:
After you select the user, the Assigned TO field is getting updated.
In addition, workflow Initiation and task creation will be done internally by the user who created the item in the list.
Thank you for your understanding.

OIM 9.1.0.2: Remove user assigned to a task in Provisioning Process

I have read Note: Ability to Have Multiple Approvers Per Resource Object in OIM [ID 429999.1], and executed each steps described in it. But when grant these resource object to some user. First the request was not sended directly to a approval process, as had been expected that I would. The request was send to a provisioning process, specifically to user has been assigned a task, when the user approves the request until the request is then sent to approval process.
I need to send directly to a approval process, because that's where I have defined my levels of approval.
I'm using oim 9.1.0.2 BP18 running on OC4J 10.1.3.5 on AIX 6.1 64-bit clustered install with two nodes, Oracle Database 10.2.0.4 on AIX 6.1 64-bit on RAC.

Hello Everyone,
Thanks for your response. Actually i have a Approval Process, where i have defined my levels of approvals. In Resume I have this Env. :
1.- A Resource: ResourceA
2.- A Provisioning Process in relation with ResourceA.
3.- A Approval Process in relation with ResourceA.
The request was send to a provisioning process, specifically to user has been assigned a task, when the user approves the request until the request is then sent to approval process.
I need to send directly to a approval process, because that's where I have defined my levels of approval. In other words i need to bypass the user assigned a task in provisioning process.

My Iphone 4 32GB started having this issue when I downloaded the 2 last 6.1.X... VOICE CONTROL pops-up even when I sleep and calls random people just by the sound of the snoring... in FACETIME even more annoying. I confirm that it does this day and night

My Iphone 4 32GB started having this issue when I downloaded the 2 last 6.1.X... VOICE CONTROL pops-up even when I sleep and calls random people just by the sound of the snoring... in FACETIME even more annoying. I confirm that it does this day and night

Turn off Voice Control.
Otherwise, basic troubleshooting from the User's Guide is reset, restart, restore (first from backup then as new).

Start BPM Process from ABAP with another User as GUEST

Hi all,
i would like to start the BPM Process by a webservice. It works if the user GUEST has the role BPM_SuperAdmin.
My question is: How can i chance this user, who call the webservice starting the process. The user, who starts the process by calling the webservice should be my own user instead of GUEST.
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Christoph

the last reply is regarding the configuration at consumer side.
of course you have to configure at the service provider side to enable the logon ticket as acceptable authentication method.
I checked at my side, i found the the service for triggering bpm is already configured to use id/pwd and logon ticket as authentication method.
you can check in this way,
CE nwa-> SOA Management->Application and Scenario Communication-->Single Service Administration
find your service, if you haven't assign any profile to your service, there will be only one configuration generate by system
you can edit this configuration.
go to configuration tab, select the endpoint, select security tab in the bottom tab list.
change the setting there.

Starting a process as a different user.

I am trying to launch a script from my java application. My java application runs as root on my Solaris box. I'm using Runtime.getRuntime().exec() to launch the script. My problem is that I would like to run the script as a different user. So is there a way to do this? I am using sudo to switch users which appears to work fine, but if I use the 3rd parameter within exec() to set the working directory of the process then sudo cannot be found.
Is there a better way of starting a process as a different user in Java?

I'm running as root for testing purposes. When we roll it out we will be creating a special no-interactive shell account. Besides, all socket communications are going to be encrypted, security policies, etc. Additionally we are behind a corporate firewall.
I'll have to think about the script thing. I was hoping for a more elegant pure java approach.
Thanks for the input.

User assigned to the process instance

How to get in an automatic activity in PBL code, the user assigned to the process instance.
In other words, if a previous activity is this.participant.next = Participant.findByName ( "ereyes")
in the activity that follows I want to get that user.
Can I get one?

Thanks Dan for responding.
I need help to assign the variables that tell me, mySavedParticipantName.
The design process is as follows.
1 .- Begin Activity
2 .- Begin activity is connected to an interactive activity in the PBL method with code only does a log "Interactive Activity".
3 .- interactive activity is connected to the end activity.
4 .- The interactive activity is connected by a "Due Transition" to an automatic activity.
5 .- The automatic activity has a transition to the Interactive Activity
6 .- The PBL code of automatic activity is executed when it meets the deadline of interactive activity. This code is where I need to know which user was assigned to the interactive activity.
The stage of the process is as follows.
A. - It creates a process instance.
B. - User "Dan" is assigned the process instance but NO running interactive activity.
C. - The automatic activity reaches its deadline.
D. - Runs the code of automatic activity. and there need to know the user who was assigned, ie, the user "Dan"
If the code did not execute interactive activity, how can I assign the variable mySavedParticipantName for automatic activity and has a value?.
Thank you and hope you can help me.
Greetings
