How to pass a paramter to a schedued process flow

I have a process flow with a one varchar type parameter.
I want to schedule this process flow and for that I have created a schedule and then attached it to the process flow using Process Flow -> Configuration -> Referred Calendar Option.
Now my issue was how can I pass the parameter value into the process flow?
OWB Version : 10.2.x
Thanks,
mc

Hi Si,
This is what I did.
I have deployed the process flow with schedule and then goto control center and start the job.
Then under parameters it's ask for a "EVAL_LOCATION" value. Which is something else.
In my process flow I have a parameter called "Job_Name" and I want to pass a value for that parameter. But in either control center, no in direct API allow me to pass a value for that parameter.
Thanks,
mc

How to pass arguments from PAPI to the process

Can any one tell me How to pass arguments from PAPI to the process.

The link Creating a new work item instance in a process using PAPI shows how to create instances on PAPI and pass in the variable information as they are being created.
Provide some additional detail if you're interested in seeing how to pass in variable information using PAPI for scenarios other than instance creation.

How to pass parameter through URL to bounded task flow with page fragment

I want to pass parameter to Bounded Task Flow With Page Fragment trough URL
as I start this taks flow with router and according to this Param I will rout the user.
I added input param to taks flow named direction and make the task flow called URL invoke url-invoke-allowed
<input-parameter-definition id="__41">
      <name id="__42">direction</name>
      <value>#{pageFlowScope.direction}</value>
      <class>java.lang.String</class>
    </input-parameter-definition>but I don't know how to add this to the JSPX that I will add the bounded task flow Inside.
and How to pass this from URL

Hi,
url-invoke-allowed is only required if the task flow itself is directly accessible from a browser (which is not the case at all if the task flow uses page fragments). To pass input parameters to a task flow that is embedded in a region and that has input parameters, you define the input parameters on the taskFlow Id that is created in the PageDef file of the containing page. To learn ADF task flows, have a look at the videos below. They also contain a sample for passing parameters to a region

How to pass a parameter to a bounded task flow?

Hi,
We are facing issue while passing parameter from a bounded task flow to another bounded task flow and then showing the passed parameter in a jspx page.
We have a caller task flow with following component:
1. A jspx page
- In this jspx we have a text box have its value as #{pageFlowScope.inputvalue}.
- Also we have a command button which has its "Action" as the control flow that leads to the "called" task flow.
2. A bounded task flow named "called".
So, we call the "called" task flow on the button click in the jspx page.
Also, in called taskflow we have a jspx page where we are using a output label to show the parameter passed from caller task flow to the called task flow.
We performed the following steps to set the parameter passing from caller task flow to the called task flow.
1. Select the input text component on the JSF page.
2. In the Property Inspector, enter a value for the input text component. You can specify the value as an EL expression, for example #{pageFlowScope.inputValue}.
3. In the Application Navigator, double-click the name of the called task flow to open its diagram.
4. Click the Overview tab for the called task flow.
5. Click Parameters and expand the Input Parameter Definition node.
6. Click the Add icon next to Input Parameter Definition.
7. In the Name field, enter a name for the parameter, for example, inputParm1.
8. In the Value field, enter an EL expression where the parameter value is stored and referenced, for example, #{pageFlowScope.inputValue}.
9. In the Class field, enter a Java class for the input parameter definition. If you leave the Class field empty, its value is by default implicitly set to java.lang.String.
10. In the editor, open the diagram for the calling task flow.
11. In the Application Navigator, drag the called ADF bounded task flow and drop it on top of the task flow call activity that is located on the calling task flow. Dropping a bounded task flow on top of a task flow call activity in a diagram automatically creates a task flow reference to the bounded task flow.
12. In the Property Inspector for the task flow call activity, click Parameters and expand the Input Parameters section.
13. Enter a name that identifies the input parameter.
14. Enter a parameter value, for example, #{pageFlowScope.parm1}.
Now when we try to fetch the value of parameter using #{pageFlowScope.parm1} in the jspx in called taskflow, its not giving the desired value.
We even tried to set the to and from parameter of the jspx in called askflow. But no success.
Can anyone let us know if we are doing smething wrong or exact steps to configure passing of parameters to a bounded task flow and retrieving it in a jspx page will also help.
Thanks in advance.

Hi Tushar,
In step# 14, the value should be "#{pageFlowScope.inputValue}" (should be the same as the value in step#2) .

OWB | Passing input to mapping in the process flow

Hi,
I have a process flow which calls a stored procedure which returns 2 values.
I want to use the values returned from this procedure as an input in my mapping. My mapping has Mapping_Input_Parameters definined for these two inputs.
These values are going to be load_date and the batch it belongs.
I have created new params in the process flow edit under the mapping. The process flow executes successfully if I give the input params as a constant. When I do a binding with the out variable of the stored procedure I get a deployment error as "Internal error: OUT_D_LOAD_DATE cannot be converted to a constant value. Please correct the value. If the problem persists then please contact Oracle Support with the stack trace and details on how to reproduce it."
Please let me know how to resolve this and if there is way to get the load_date in the mapping without actually having to call the procedure in the mapping. The load_date will change everyday and I need to read it from a table.
Thanks!

Hi
If you have resolved the error please guide me also Since I am also facing the same error. (RPE-02040: Internal error: MYRAND cannot be converted to a constant value. Please correct the value. )
I am using 10gR2, Here my test process flow is
Start - > MyRand -> FindOddEven->end
Here MyRand function will return a value, the function findOddEven will just do a mod of 2 and return 1 for odd numbers and 0 for even numbers. When I bind the OUT parameter of the MyRand to the IN parameter of the FindOddEven it is throwing the same error.
Thanks in advance

How to pass multiple values while invoking bpel process from ADF?

Hi,
I want to call a bpel process from my ADF application. The bpel process is having one input parameter. I have created webservice data control by using WSDL url.
Lets say, I have an Emp multi select table. I drag and drop the data control into Emp table selection facet to create an "Invoke" button.
I am able to pass single value (lets say Empid) to the bpel process after clicking the "Invoke" button.
But, my requirement is to pass all the selected values ( as its a multi select table) to the bpel process after clicking the "Invoke" button once.
How can I achieve this?
--Abhijit

Hi,
if the BPEL method that you access allows you to pass arrays or lists, then you can get a list of selectedRowKeys from the table, which then you use to get the value from the underlying binding or the table. This however requires some Java coding instead of directly invoking the executable on the binding layer
- you create the BPEL method in the binding layer
- from a Java managed bean you call ADFBindingContext --> get current instance and access Binding container
- OperationBinding oper = (OperationBinding ) bindings.get("method to invoke");
oper.gerParamsMap().put("the BPel argument name", value);
oper.execute();
- To access the table selected rows
RowKeySet rks = _table.getSelectedRowKeys();
//iterate over the set of selected row keys and delete
//each of the found rows
Iterator selectedRowIterator = rks.iterator();
while (selectedRowIterator.hasNext()){
    //get the first key
    Object key = selectedRowIterator.next();
    //make the row current
    _table.setRowKey(key);
    //the row is an instance of the ADF node binding class
    JUCtrlHierNodeBinding rowWrapper = null;
    rowWrapper = (JUCtrlHierNodeBinding) _table.getRowData();
    //get the actual oracle.jbo.Row object
    Row row = rowWrapper.getRow();
    ... get attribute values by calling row.getAttribute("name"); assuming you used ADF BC to build the tableFrank

(urgent)how to run the sqlldr script in owb process flow?

dear all:
In my oracle warehouse ,i have to load much *.dat file

please help me!
with best regard!

Hello,
our developers were getting this error code just the other day. They are using "sqlplus_exec_template" script to initiate these things. In our case, I had to do two thing:
1) Modify their "initiator" script (the one that connects to runtime access user, and then calls "template") - it has to use tns connectivity "user/passwd@service_name"
2) Create TNS entry (server side) for the "service_name" above.
Now these SQL*LOADER mappings run successfully.

How to configure "User defined" activity in a process flow

I want to start a shell script from a workflow process in an Unix environment. I use owb 10.2.0.1
Name of shell_script:           verify_infile.sh
Location of shell_script:     /ASW/dw
3 parameters to the script:     X X /local/db/import/rain/finans.dat
First parameter is the letter X
Second parameter is the letter X
Third parameter is the path and file name I want to verify
I assume it's the User defined activity I should use and the parameters of the user defined activity are as follows
4 IN PARAMETERS
COMMAND
PARAMETER LIST
SUCCESS THRESHOLD
SCRIPT
1 OUT PARAMETERS
RESULT_CODE
So my question is what shall I have as in parameters in the User defined activity?
Kind regards
Jan

Here is the solution to the case
First make sure parameter in (owb_home)\owb\bin\admin\Runtime.properties is not disabled.
If it is, change the parameter to the value NATIVE_JAVA as described in the file:
property.RuntimePlatform.0.NativeExecution.Shell.security_constraint = NATIVE_JAVA
Second
COMMAND: /bin/sh
PARAMETER LIST: ?/ASW/dw/verify_infile.sh?X?X?/local/db/import/rain/finans.dat?
RESULT_CODE: 0
SCRIPT:
SUCESS_THRESHOLD: 0

How to chage the logical Name of a Process flow?

Hi,
While I am creating process flows, some times, I do copy of one process flow its creating copy_of_pf1 ( for the process flow pf1) and I am doing necerrary changes and updating the process flow name.
But in the backend, its maitining Physical name as the name which we have given ( which is visible in OWB) and the loical name is still Copy_of_pf1. Its not updating as with physical name. Is there any way to update this.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you,
Regards,
Gowtham Sen.

Also (without changing the naming mode...)....
If you click on any object in the main tree and select properties, the Translations tab will also have the business name for the object and any sub-object - for the languages you have installed.
This is useful for example for setting the business names for a dimension and its levels, hierarchies and attributes - you can set the names all from one panel, albeit hidden in the translations panel!
Cheers

Process Flow errors - how do you see them

Hi there
Created and deployed a process flow but when run it either comes up with warnings or errors. Really simple process flow to run two mappings which, individually run fine. when run the process flow in Conrol Cenetr has error or warning symbol, click job details but can't see what the error, warning message is.
Any ideas how to see them - this is the first process flow I've created?
Many Thanks

Hi
You can either;
* use the repository browser and view the audit trail there (must start the browser listener first).
* use the OWB SQL Developer reports that use the public views on the exchange, the error details are recorded in the public views.
http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/warehouse/htdocs/Experts/owb_sqldeveloper.zip
I created these for a quicker turnaround time in building/debugging process flows. The browser is the official mechanism.
This is fixed in 10.2.0.3 - you will see the errors in the control center manager, where you might have expected them in the first place!
Cheers

How to pass parameters into Function module : CLOI_PUT_SIGN_IN_FRONT

Hello friends,
I am displaying values ie, amounts in the screen using write statements here i have to display the
sign left side , i am using Function module   'CLOI_PUT_SIGN_IN_FRONT'
Does anybody help me - How to pass paramter into this Function module.
Regards,
Phaneendra

If you look to the code of the function module, you can see it is condensing the value.
I would make a copy of this function, and remove the condense lines to give the result you want.
data: text1(1) type c.
search value for '-'.
if sy-subrc = 0 and sy-fdpos <> 0.
    split value at '-' into value text1.
    condense value.
    concatenate '-' value into value.
else.
    condense value.
endif.

How to pass input value to the IN parameter in a function

Hi ,
I'm new to pl/sql programming.
The below function is used inside a package and the package is invoked in visual studio.
The function uses 2 input parameters.
Out of which 'in_report_parameter_id' value comes thru job processor service 's job request.
The second IN paramter values are hard coded in the function.
I'm not able to understand this.
If the values are hard coded , how to make sure that only the hard coded values are the right ones?
Please anyone could explain to me?
I really dont have good idea about how to pass INPUT parameter to the functions or procedure
Is there any nice document which could give me good understanding about what are the ways or types we could pass values to the input parameter in subprograms?
thanks in advance.

This is not a design I would use, but should work if coded properly. I would probably build a reference cursor query as text and use one open fetch and close.
You have 2 input parameters, in_report_parameter_id and in_which. I could not find where in_report_parameter_id was used in the program, but the value passed in for in_which is being used in IF logic to decide how to open the cursor. After the cursor is open rows are being fetched and eventually the cursor is closed.
The values in_which are compared to are hard-coded. It is the programmer's job to make sure the values listed are the right values and the actions taken are also correct. Your program is assuming that if the first 2 values are not encountered the third one listed is the one you want.
To pass input values to a procedure you merely provide the values as a literal or variable in the call, something like
whatever := get_class_text_str(1,'SELECT');

How to pass a date as a parameter?

So what i'm trying to do is call a proc. by passing a paramter that takes the date.
The table used in the cursor outputs date like so: "4/14/2009 7:00:00 PM"
So the query looks something like this...
select game_id
from cs.years
where trunc(game_date) in pGameDatepGameDate is defined as: date default sysdate - 15
So the call of the proc looks like this... call xt.GameIDs (pGameDate)
My question is how would I pass that date in the call?
I've tried the following call xt.GameIDs ('25-April-2009') but that didn't seem to work...am I writing out the date incorrectly in the call?

user652714 wrote:

you are not passing date here its a string you need to convert it into date use to_date('25-april-2009','DD-MONTH-RRRR')
