Human Task Requirement and form design in Oracle 11g

Dear Forum Users,
A). Suppose there are 2 independent user tasks in a workflow and in between there is a automated task that does something with a back end call (to check or to retrieve so information or a decision). At a certain moment the first user task is started and finished. Normally speaking, when this task is finished, then the automated task is processed and the second task will be added to the worklist of that user (if he is authorised to process both user tasks). The user then can go back to the worklist, find the task and click on it to process. What is really required is that the user SHOULD NOT go back to the worklist and click and open the second task from the worklist.
If the second user task can be handled by the same user as the first user task then is there a way to open it for him automatically ? (or via a popup) (so it looks as if it's a following screen)
B). The form design issue is that there are more inputs on 1 line to give it a more natural appearance, like address inputs. It's a lot of work to get those things done with split screens etc. An example (in courier to get the alignment proper) ...... Is there an easy way out or standard way of doing this?

Thank you for your answers and suggestions

Thanks Mr.Frank for your replay
but i don't mean the right alignment for input text .
I'm working for Arabic interface project , and i changed the language from the control panel and it works fine in the run time for messages and directions from right to left
but in design it not good it from left to right and want the design form to be from right to left
Notes : i used trinidad-config and i changed the property <right-to-left>true</right-to-left>
but i did't work

  • Can we call the Human Task operations and the Rule Designer, etc. from outs

    Hi,
    I just had one of my customers ask me -
    Can we call the Human Task operations and the Rule Designer, etc. from outside the SOA Suite ??
    Since these are independent applications, and that they are based on Service Oriented Architecture, I should be able to call these services from outside Oracle SOA Suite (SCA) for reuse.
    In case you have any idea about the possibilities, could you share some real world examples / URLs please ?
    Thanks & Regards

    Hi Vaibhav,
    Yes, you are right. We are using Oracle SOA suite 11g.
    My question is, can these Web Services be directly accessed from, say a .NET application without using BPEL PM, or is using BPEL a must to invoke these services in Human Task operations, Rule Designer, etc ?

  • Composite Application with a Task Flow and form created manually

    Hi,
    I'm using Oracle SOA Suite 11G and i'm trying to create a task form for a human task without using the auto generate wizards and i'm having trouble getting the form to show in BPM worklist.
    I have followed instructions in the developers guide to create the form against the human task including the following
    27 Designing Task Forms for Human Tasks
    27.4.3 How To Create a Task Form Using the Complete Task with Payload Drop Handler
    27.8 Deploying a Composite Application with a Task Flow
    After i deploy and test, the task appears and works correctly in BPM worklist, but the form does not show. This is when i have the task form within a composite application or in a separate project. When i generate the form automatically using the wizards, this all works fine.
    Updated: Noticed that when i create the task form manually and deploy it does not create entries as per instructions
    20.3 Managing the URI of the Human Task Service Component Task Details Application
    I have the details in hwtaskflow.xml, but for some reason, they are not automatically created... It is annoying to have this created each time...
    Am i missing something? I don't see any errors in BPM worklist or on the server. Any advice would be appreciated.
    Thanks

    Hi Duncan,
    Thanks for your reply.
    The later option of not using Query_Only would involve massive custmizations, as there are so many forms apart from the absence forms.
    There is just one taskflow that contains the person, assignment, Absence and SIT screen, how can we do like an standalone absence screen does not have tehe query only as Yes.
    Please let me know in case you dint get me i will mention my development steps in points.
    Many Thanks,

  • Pdf reader requirements for forms designed in Livecycle

    HI guys,
    I have designed a few dynamic pdf forms that was developed using Livecycle Designer ES. These forms are online fillable forms and I will be uploading these on my site so my users can open these forms in their browsers, complete the form online and print it out for their personal use. These forms are more like online tools for the users. For this, I also have to provide a Troubleshoot guide to my users so they can refer to this if they are unable to open the forms or having trouble viewing the forms properly. So right now I am working on creating this Troubleshoot documentation and I dont want to give the wrong info to my users so I have some clarifications and some doubts and wondering if you guys can help me out..
    1) From what I understand, I think the users need to have atleast a v.8.0 of Acrobat Reader in order to fill these dynamic forms that was designed in livecycle designer ES. This is right? I think so based on my memory since I believe I read this somewhere. Would you be able to clarify this? Have I got the right version?
    2) Also, further to this I understand that the users need to have an Acrobat reader browser plug-in in order to open the pdfs in their browsers. So, I will be adding a list of various pdf plug-in download links for various browsers.
    3) I was wondering, what happens if the user doesnt have acrobat reader installed in their computer? What are the common other pdf readers that various users use? I know there are tons out there but I am trying to understand the common ones that majority of the people use other than Acrobat Reader. I mean users having mac or other OS. Will these forms also work in other pdf readers? Is there are a list of various pdf readers & the versions requirements in order for these livecycle forms to work?
    4) Other than the above points, do you think if I need to mention anything else in the troubleshoot documentation? Any points I may have missed?
    I am sorry..this is the first time I am uploading these online forms and I am trying to understand the requirements so I may be able to assist my users if they do experience any problems. So any help is very much appreciated!
    Thank you..

    Some users are having problems viewing my forms I created using livecycle:
    1) I have a created a few dynamic forms designed using livecycle designer ES..In order for my users to open these forms, they need to have atleast Adobe acrobat / reader version 8.1 or higher to view these dynamic files. However, quite a few of my users are saying that they are still unable to open these forms directly from their browser although they have downloaded the latest Acrobat X version and the browser plug-ins in their computer. It happens to both windows and mac computers. But they are able to download these files and open it directly from their adobe reader though. It happens with all browsers for them...some of them have even called up mac support as well as adobe support and they were advised that it could be a problem with my forms that I find hard to believe since it opens in my computer and opens for a lot of other users. Its only a few users still having this difficulties and I can't understand why! They have also tried enabling "Adobe Reader" as a default problem to open pdf files by opening the adobe reader. They also have tried uninstalling and re-installing the readers and still the same problem. These LC files just dont open inside their browser for them.
    2) Also, I recently uploaded a dynamic file in acrobat file sharing. I noticed that when I click on this file sharing link, it also shows the message that I dont have the latest reader installed (something similar to what my users say about my forms), Why am I getting the below message when I have the latest adobe installed? I am able to open other dynamic xml forms in my browsers..why does this happen? I wonder if other user's problem who open my forms from my site is similar to this problem I have with acrobat file sharing...not sure... (example url: https://acrobat.com/#d=fs-E6Bqml8r0FWI8aMu09g )
    To view the full contents of this document, you need a later version of the PDF viewer. You can upgrade to the latest version of Adobe Reader from etc...etc...etc..
    What can be the problem when the adobe version is already updated and also the plug-ins are updated too?? I have read a lot of links in adobe site itself which suggest various methods to test out the forms, browsers, plug-ins, etc..and I also understand that it doesnt work for iOS & Android devices, but this problem still happens to some users even after trying out these troubleshoots. Can someone plz explain if there are other limitations or solution for these users?

  • How to take human task values and store them in DB table

    Hi, I have a workflow and when I assign the task to someone I want to store some info in a database table that I created.
    I have checked the box allow task and routing customization in bpel call backs.
    And under the on Assign message, I put an assign bpel construct and an invoke.
    in the assign construct I am trying to copy some of the elements from my humantasks_globalvariables to certain columns in my database table.
    I have found out you can't copy them directly because the humantasks_globalvariables are of type string and my database columns are anonymous. So I tried using parseEscapedXML(), when I do this I get the error that
    oracle.fabric.common.xml.xpath.XPathFunctionException: parseXML() expects the argument to be either a string or an XML element.
    The humantasks_globalvariable I am using says it's of type string but it gives me this error.
    I am obviously doing something wrong. If anybody know how to take values from a human task and store them in a database table any help would be greatly appreciated.

    In the actual database the column types are varchar2. But when I drag an invoke from the bpel constructs I associate it with by DBadapter partner link and click the button automatically create input variables. It creates an xsd and this is what one of the elements looks like.
    <xs:element name="anyvalue">
        <xs:simpleType>
            <xs:restriction base="xs:string">
                 <xs:maxLength value="20"/>
            </xs:restriction>
        </xs:simpleType>
    </xs:element>When I do an assign and try to assign the values from the humantasks_globalvariables xsd there types look like this.
    task:title string
    and the input variable I automatically generated look like this.
    ns7:anyvalue <anonymous>

  • What are the privileges required for explain plan in Oracle 11g database

    I am facing the problem in doing a explain plan for a view in Oracle 11g database. When I select from the view like this:

    It does a select on the view but when I give explain plan like
    explain plan for
    select * from zonewisearpu
    I get the error like insufficient privileges.
    Please let me know if things are getting missed out as I guess system level privileges are required to execute this.

    Thanks for your reply. I have found out that an explain plan is possible on the user's own objects and is not possible on the granted objects from a different schema. For eg, if I do a explain plan on a view querying on tables from a different view, it would not allow the explain plan to proceed. This could mean that explain plan needs different privileges than just a select.
    Requesting for a revert to this.
    Here is a simple test case that I have perfomed

  • Can't connect Forms 6i to Oracle 11g on Windows Server 2008 SE

    Hi everyone,
    I have Oracle 10g working pretty well with Forms 6i, but now I have installed Oracle 11g on another server and I'm trying to connect Forms 6i to my other Oracle 11g server, but Forms 6i never gets connected. Is there any trick to make it work? I have check the upper cases and other things related with lower and upper case passwords, but nothinh happens.
    Can anyone please help me?

    Hello;
    Its probably the Oracle client that installs with Forms 6. Try connecting to the database using SQL Plus from a Forms workstation. If it fails I would install a newer client and switch the Oracle Home on all the workstations.
    ( Provided it tests out )
    I would probably try using the Net Configurations Assistant in your Oracle Start Menu group with all combinations I could think of before I added a second client to the mix.
    Of minor interest :

    If I use a domain user (user1) maintained on domain server (adsvr.company.com) to manage Oracle objects in DB server (dbsvr), do I have to assign user1 as member of administrator on DB server (dbsvr)?

  • Export and Import issue in Oracle 11g

    Hi All,
    I have exported data using exp command in oracle 11g by keeping deferred_segment_creation FALSE.
    Even then my zero records tables are not coming in export.
    What could be the reason or what other thing i have to do to make it work.
    Thanks in advance
    Mohsin J

    Tables that were created before you changed deferred_segment_creation to FALSE and do not have any rows would still be segment-less tables --- i.e. not exported.
    You need to issue an "ALTER TABLE tablename MOVE" for each of such tables (after having set deferred_segment_creation to FALSE) to force a rebuild of these tables with segments before the export.
    Thus, the sequence is
    1. set deferred_segment_creation to FALSE
    2. identify all tables with 0 rows
    3. issue an ALTER TABLE tablename MOVE for each of such tables from step 2
    4. Re-run your export
    alternatively use conventional export (exp) instead of datapump export.

  • Upgradation from Oracle 8i Forms/Reports to Oracle 11g Forms/Reports

    Dear all, is it possible to upgrade our in-house developed ERP from 8i to 11g directly ?
    If possible then please tell me the procedures,cost etc. for the same.
    Is ORACLE provides training for the same ?
    Its' urgent please!

    Hi Sukhvinder,
    ERP or not ... it must be an application using a database.
    If your application is created with Forms you can upgrade a 6.0.8 Forms (+) --- directly ---> to 11g.
    For a lower version you need to pass through an intermediate version: lower than 6.0.8 Forms ----> 10.1.2 -----> 11g.
    You can take a look at http://www.in-oracle.com/Oracle-Middleware/OAS/oracle-forms-11g.php as well for more details.

  • Question on Dynamic Query Data Source and Form Folders in Oracle Forms 6i

    Hi there -
    I have one interesting requirement in Oracle Forms.
    This is what I wanted to do.
    1. Have a LOV and Go button on Form.
    2. From LOV, I will select a pre-defined custom table and click Go.
    3. Based on the selected custom table, I have to populate the Block (Tabular Format).
    4. User should be able to do update, delete, insert on this block.
    5. User should be able to use the Oracle Form folders functionality (select only necessary column and save views etc. Std folder functionality).
    6. If user selects a different custom table name in the LOV on top, I need to refresh the data from the block based on this new table. Remaining functionality should be as it is (steps 3 to 5).
    You can see here, I am going to have dynamic query data source (Table Name as well as column mapping) on the block. I do not know before hand how many columns the user selected table has!
    This is what I have planned for this so far but I have some major questions before I can move on with this design:
    1. I am going to create a table structure with fixed number of column in form (40 cols assuming that the custom table will not have more that 40 cols). (Kind of limitation but it's okay as of now).
    2. Dynamically populate the block based on the table name selected by the user from LOV. Dynamically change the table column names based on the table selected etc.
    3. Perform insert, update, delete using PL/SQL package.
    So far it looks okay.
    Now my real question is,
    Can user still be able to user "Folders" functionality here? I have never done this kind of development before and I doubt the dynamic column naming, dynamic column data source will really work for "folders"!
    Also, I am not really sure whether user will be able to save these "folder" queries?
    Okay so form experts, can you ppl suggest me if this is really going to work? Are there any better ways to do this?
    Initially I tried to do this in OA Framework but I got stuck at because as per OAF developer guide "I cannot user OAF personalization for dynamic items, regions etc".
    For more info on that thread see this link...
    Re: setUserCustomizable issue!
    Thanks in advance for the help.

    Any suggestion anyone?

  • PL/SQL and Forms executable in Oracle 8i Lite ?

    I've got 2 basic and important questions:
    1.) Is it possible to store procedures with PL/SQL in a Oracle 8i Lite Database(Operating System Windows 2000)
    2.) Are the normal Forms 6i - Applications executable on a Oracle 8i Lite Database.
    (Operating System Windows 2000)
    Regards
    Steffen

    Regardless of which path you want to take, in order to get the OCP certification in either the DBA or PL/SQL developer track, you must first obtain the respective OCA certification for that track. I'm assuming that since you are still undecided in which path to take that you haven't started working on either yet. If you look at the pages for the OCA DBA and OCA PL/SQL Developer certs and what is required for each, you'll see that the first block of tests for either certification (the SQL based exams) has the same options (1Z0-007, 1Z0-047, 1Z0-051) and passing one of those SQL based exams gives credit towards obtaining both OCA certifications. That might be a good place to start.
    Doing one of these tests first might give you some extra time to decide which track you want to pursue. But as Justin said, it really depends on what you do (or plan on doing) in your career as to which path might be more beneficial for you.
    As for the OCM level stuff, I wouldn't even think about it until you get the OCP. One step at a time... Same with OCP before OCA. That being said, my suggestions are just that, suggestions. You're free to take any exams/courses in any order, but you won't be able to obtain the certs until you have completed the requirements for each.

Maybe you are looking for
