How to update old instances with values

Hi,
i am using albpm 5.7 version.
i have a requirement i need to update the oldinstances with updated data.
suppose i have added new external variable to process how it will update the old instances.
plz suggest how to solve this problem.
Regards,
Srinivas.

Hi,
The standard behaviour is that new instances of the process will use the most recent version of the process that has been deployed to the database. This allows you to deploy new versions of the processes without impacting on processes which are already in progress.
When the workflow engine determines what activity to run next in the process, the engine checks what the start date of the process instance was, so that it can check what version of the process was active at that time. If you update the start date for each running process, so that it reflects the date that you saved the most recent version of the flow, then the workflow engine will use the latest version instead of the version that it was running.
This is not supported. I would never suggest that you do this in a production environment - it does not make sense to be making frequent changes to the process in a production environment, since there is no supported mechanism for forcing existing flows to use the new definition. The engine is designed specifically to run the same version of the process for the duration of the process instance - what you want to do is to blow this out of the water completely. If you do change this, then all timing that is recorded against the activities becomes useless, and the other impact on the workflow process us something that you would need to consider incredibly carefully before deciding whether you want to take the risk.
HTH,
Matt

How to update this table with values from another table ?

Hi
I have a table "regies". I want to replace the values of the column "regies.agent" by the value of the column "regies_personnes.id"
As you see the tables have a common values column. ie regies.agent = regies_personnes.nom
Table "regies" :
Insert into "regies" (AGENT) values ('Humberdot Alain');
Insert into "regies" (AGENT) values ('Danard Patrick');
Table "regies_personnes" :
Insert into REGIES_PERSONNES (NOM,ID) values ('Humberdot Alain',1);
Insert into REGIES_PERSONNES (NOM,ID) values ('Danard Patrick',2);
Before we have this
sql>select agent from regies ;
Humberdot Alain
Danard Patrick
After the update, the result should be
sql>select agent from regies ;
1
2
Thank you for your kind answer.

You will face error if you have duplicates
ORA-01427 Single row subquery returns Multiple rows.Try this way
create table regies(agent varchar2(30));
create table regies_personnes( nom varchar2(30),id number);
Insert into regies (AGENT) values ('Humberdot Alain');
Insert into regies (AGENT) values ('Danard Patrick');
Insert into REGIES_PERSONNES (NOM,ID) values ('Humberdot Alain',1);
Insert into REGIES_PERSONNES (NOM,ID) values ('Danard Patrick',2);
Insert into regies (AGENT) values ('Humberdot Alain');
Insert into regies (AGENT) values ('Danard Patrick');
Insert into REGIES_PERSONNES (NOM,ID) values ('Humberdot Alain',1);
Insert into REGIES_PERSONNES (NOM,ID) values ('Danard Patrick',2);
commit;
update regies r set agent = (select id from regies_personnes p where r.agent = p.nom
and rownum=1)
where exists (select id from regies_personnes p where r.agent = p.nom

Use the following code:
set an document encoding
l_encoding = l_ixml->create_encoding( character_set = 'UTF-8'
                                        byte_order = if_ixml_encoding=>co_none ).
l_success = l_ostream->set_encoding( encoding = l_encoding ).
create a xml renderer
l_renderer = l_ixml->create_renderer( document = l_doc ostream = l_ostream ).

Hi,
For custom forms and reports, you need to open it using Forms/Reports Builder 10g, compile it, and upload it again to the server.
For the CUSTOM_TOPs, make sure it is set in the custom<CONTEXT_NAME>.sh file under $APPL_TOP, and in default.env file on the Applications tier.

How do you force instances with the same name on the same layer to update?

Maybe someone can tell me why flash doesn’t redraw
components’ x,y positions if they have the same instance name
and are on adjacent frames? (movieclips work fine, just not
components) If I have a button on frame 1 and a button on frame 2
both with the same instance name but different locations on the
stage, frame 2’s button doesn’t show up in the position
I placed it, it stays at the position of frame 1 but still has the
properties of frame 2’s button. The label changes and
everything. If I stick a button on a frame in between and give it a
different instance name there is no problem. I thought it might be
the style manager bug
http://www.gskinner.com/blog/archives/2007/12/cs3_component_b.html
but it didn’t seem to affect. This happens for textareas too
and probably all components although I haven’t tried them.
I’ve tried using drawNow() and validateNow() with no luck
either
http://www.adobe.com/devnet/flash/articles/creating_as3_components_pt3_05.html
Thank you!
// put this on frame 1 along with a button on the stage with
instance name: b
function doit(event) {
if (currentFrame == 1)
gotoAndStop(2);
else
gotoAndStop(1);
b.addEventListener(MouseEvent.CLICK, doit);
stop();
// put another button on frame 2 along with this code and
also make it’s instance name: b but move it so it’s not
in the same x,y coordinates as the button on frame 1
stop();
Something possibly related. I have a movieclip on a layer,
one instance with name “a” on frame 1 and one instance
with name “a” on frame 2 and it has event listeners
inside it that update something on the movieclip. Unless I put the
movieclips on separate layers the event listeners won’t reset
each frame. (example: a button with a tooltip onmouseover that you
want to change the text of from frame 1 to frame 2) You’d
think if they were on separate keyframes at least but no, they need
to be on separate layers too.
I want the movieclip to update each frame. Any ideas?

instances (whether components or not) with the same name may
or may not be the same instance. it depends upon how they were
created.
for example, if you create an instance on frame 1 of your
main timeline, give it an instance name and then create a keyframe
on frame 2, the two instances will be the same.
but if you create an instance on frame 1 of your main
timeline, give it an instance name and then create a blank keyframe
on frame2 and create another, what you think is a duplicate,
instance and give it the same name, it will be a different
instance.

How to upload a document with values related to document properties in to document set at same time using Javascript object model

Hi,
Problem Description: Need to upload a document with values related to document properties using custom form in to document set using JavaScript Object Model.
Kindly let me know any solutions.
Thanks
Razvi444

The following code shows how to use REST/Ajax to upload a document to a document set.
function uploadToDocumentSet(filename, content) {
appweburl = decodeURIComponent(getQueryStringParameter('SPAppWebUrl'));
hostweburl = decodeURIComponent(getQueryStringParameter('SPHostUrl'));
var restSource = appweburl +
"/_api/SP.AppContextSite(@target)/web/GetFolderByServerRelativeUrl('/restdocuments/testds')/files/add(url='" + filename + "',overwrite=true)?@target='" + hostweburl + "'";
var dfd = $.Deferred();
$.ajax(
'url': restSource,
'method': 'POST',
'data': content,
processData: false,
timeout:1000000,
'headers': {
'accept': 'application/json;odata=verbose',
'X-RequestDigest': $('#__REQUESTDIGEST').val(),
"content-length": content.byteLength
'success': function (data) {
var d = data;
dfd.resolve(d);
'error': function (err,textStatus,errorThrown) {
dfd.reject(err);
return dfd;
Then when this code returns you can use the following to update the metadata of the new document.
function updateMetadataNoVersion(fileUrl) {
appweburl = decodeURIComponent(getQueryStringParameter('SPAppWebUrl'));
hostweburl = decodeURIComponent(getQueryStringParameter('SPHostUrl'));
var restSource = appweburl +
"/_api/SP.AppContextSite(@target)/web/GetFolderByServerRelativeUrl('/restdocuments/testds')/files/getbyurl(url='" + fileUrl + "')/listitemallfields/validateupdatelistitem?@target='" + hostweburl + "'";
var dfd = $.Deferred();
$.ajax(
'url': restSource,
'method': 'POST',
'data': JSON.stringify({
'formValues': [
'__metadata': { 'type': 'SP.ListItemFormUpdateValue' },
'FieldName': 'Title',
'FieldValue': 'My Title2'
'bNewDocumentUpdate': true,
'checkInComment': ''
'headers': {
'accept': 'application/json;odata=verbose',
'content-type': 'application/json;odata=verbose',
'X-RequestDigest': $('#__REQUESTDIGEST').val()
'success': function (data) {
var d = data;
dfd.resolve(d);
'error': function (err) {
dfd.reject(err);
return dfd;

How to update model only if value has changed?

I would have expected that a model property is only updated if the value of the UIComponent has changed, but I am apparently wrong.
Why is the setter-Method of a model always called, even if the old and new value are the same (or better: equal)?
I have not found anything in the spec that defines the behaviour of an implementation in this regard.
thanks in advance for any comments
Daniel

I think the value always gets set, why? Does it cause problems on your end?
Though, it will be better if they don't update it when they are the same values.

How to update item instance in oracle install base?

Hi,
I have a doubt in updating item instance in oracle install base.
I am using a API named csi_item_instance_pub.update_item_instance for this. I want to update Party OWNER, party contacts, Current location,Install location, bill_to address,ship_to address..etc. When i try to update party owner, it is updating in csi_i_parties(col:party_id) as well as updating in csi_item_instance(owner_party_id). In csi_item_instance table,owner_party_id column is updated. but corresponding owner_party_account_id is not changed. I have given party_account_id to update in csi_ip_accounts table. It has changed in csi_ip_accounts table. But in csi_item_instance table(owner_party_account_id) is not changing. Can anybody help on how to change owner_party_account_id in csi_item_instance table please? Thanks in advance.
--Muruga
Edited by: Murugeshapps on Jul 1, 2009 12:07 AM

Out of the box, I don't think that there is any API or program to delete the records from csi_item_instances because deleting IB record affects many modules (like Inventory, Order, Service Contracts etc). IB records should be expired if they are created incorrectly and you can run Transaction History Purge program to delete all history records related to that item.
