Global Automatic Activity - Process to Process

Question

Hi,
How can we invoke another process from one process using a Global automatic activity..Is PAPI the only way? How can we use PAPI code inside of a Global Automatic Activity to call another process?v Any examples?

Answer 1

I am not sure what you saying..Did u mean Global Creation ? But that would have a user to invoke the process..I want to invoke it automatically...I got a part of the answer...But it takes all instances..and creates multiple instances..I want to isolate the instances previously been transferred..What I am doing is ..Using a Global Automatic to invoke the other process.Writing a PAPI code to call the other process from this process...and Polling By Interval every 1m..
Here is a code:-
ProcessService ps;
ps.connectTo(url : Fuego.Server.directoryURL, user : (String)BusinessParameter.getValue(name : "USER_NAME"), password : (String)BusinessParameter.getValue(name : "PASSWORD"));
logMessage("Process Service connected--->" );
businessProcess = ps.getProcess(process : "StartProcess");
InstanceFilter instanceFilter;
instanceFilter.create(processService : ps);
SearchScope searchScope = new SearchScope(ParticipantScope.ALL,StatusScope.INPROCESS_AND_COMPLETED);
instanceFilter.searchScope = searchScope;
result2 = businessProcess.getInstancesByFilter(filter : instanceFilter);
logMessage("Length ==>" +length(result2));
length = length(result2);
logMessage("Length Transferred==>" +length);
test["name"] = "testing";
if(length > 0)
     for(int i=0; i < length; i++)
          ProcessInstance.create(arguments : test, argumentsSetName : "BeginIn");
else
     logMessage("length is-->" + length);
length = 0;
Any suggestions on how to isolate the previous obtained instances would be appreciated..
Thanks,
