Hi,
I checked in dba_user and do not find owf_mgr in it so I created owf_user and grant himexecute any procedure and a role owb_user.
When I did not get table wf_resources in owf_mgr schema, I try to run wfinstall.bat on stand alone owb 11.2.
But I got the following error,

Oracle WorkFlow, help me, please

Hi,
I don't familiar with Oracle Workflow , I want to use it, in fact I build up the Oracle WorKFlow using WorkFlow
Builder but I don't know how to link the workflow process with the aplication.
Can any one tell me How to execute this work flow
regards
Marma Teresa

Hello Maria,
There are two parts to your question; First, if you want to see how Workflow works in the application a good idea would be to test for example; a Purchasing Workflow. If you have Purchasing do the following: (I'm not sure how your setup is for the apps. so I'll include all steps).
1) Create yourself as a user in the Core applications: (R) System Adminstrator - (N) User/
Define
2) Give yourself the following responsiblities: a) System Adminstrator
b) Purchasing
c) Workflow Adminstrator Web Applications
3) Create a Purchase order in Purchasing - do not approve the PO
4) Open a SQL session and run the following script:
SQL> select segment1, wf_item_type, wf_item_key,po_header_id
from po_headers_all
where segment1 = <PO Number>;
This script will give you the the name of the workflow that got called: wf_item_type and
the unique instance of the definition that got called: wf_item_key.
5) Choose the Workflow Adminstrator Web Applications responsibility and choose Find Process
from the menu
6) In the Item key field enter the value from the SQL script (wf_item_key) - click on Find
7) In the next form chose the View Diagram button - this will launch the Workflow Monitor, it
will allow you view the present state of the definition - the green line indicates
the 'path'Workflow has taken and the color also indicates that everything is ok.
8) Go back into Purchasing and Approve the PO
9) Follow steps 5,6 and 7 - to see the 'continued flow' of the Workflow.
The second part to your question, if you have created a Workflow you have two options;
1) To actually 'call' the Workflow you created, you will have to save your definition to the
database. Chose the Launch Process menu, find your definition. The in the next form, enter
the data for your attributes...then click ok. This will launch your workflow.
Unfortunately, I do not know what your definition looks like so may encounter some errors.
But the Launch Process allows you 'test' the Workflow you created.
2) If you want to 'include' your definition in the Core Applications that might require a
customization. In brief, when users are in the application, depending on what they are
doing, the form will call workflow. If you want the application to call your definition you
will have to cutomize the call the form makes. But, certain modules in the application
do allow you to modify Oracle's definition and call your new process - Oracle Purchasing
is one of those modules.
I hope this information helps. If you need more infomation let me know: [email protected]
Thanks,
Karen

Workflow help required

Hi fellows,
I have a problem in workflow. I have workflow implemented in purchase order process at the time of approval.
The problem is when it got rejected, a mail is being sent. If it is rejected second time, again mail will be sent. The only small requirement is, user want to know the number of rejection. e.g first time, then in the mail header , rejection number 1 is displayed and so for all subsequent rejection.
I am not a workflow guy, I know the concept and did some demo's. But please guide me in detail, how to fix it.
Pls guide me as the beginner.
Thanks,

It is better to implement this requirement in the workflow using deadline monitoring. In the meantime create the mails by hand, by using transaction SWI5 to check the tasks which are due for approving.
Regards, Rob
PS for more info either hire a workflow expert, or check the workflow forum or the beginner blogs by sapna modi

Process flows without Oracle Workflow?

I am using OWB 10.2, running with a 10.2 database. I want to create a new workflow module, package, and flow, and execute it the process flow using the OWB scheduler. The documentation implies that this configuration is possible, but when I create the workflow module it wants an Oracle Workflow connection for the location. I get the feeling that I'm overlooking something basic in the documentation.
QUESTION:
1) Is Oracle Workflow REQUIRED to create, deploy, and execute a process flow?

Hi,
Oracle Workflow is required for deploying processflow.
Where did you read in documentation about possibilities of running processflows without OWF? OWB instalation guide tells:
"If you plan to use Warehouse Builder process flows, you need to install Oracle Workflow to enable deployment."

Oleg

Oracle Workflow Notification to multiple users but only one response required

Hi,
I'd like to ask help on how I would go about this. I have a requirement using Oracle Workflow. Initially the workflow sends a notification with the option to Accept or Reject to a group of people, then if one accepts I should end the process. But if all rejects, then send a notification to the Manager.
I used a Loop Timer to loop through the members of the group but I noticed that one needs to reply before the next one gets notified and so on.
I thought of using adhoc role then adding all members to this role. But not sure how to catch if one accepts or all rejects.
Appreciate any suggestions.
Thanks,
Allen

Hi
We have a similar situation and every level has multiple user to release the PO. I have tried with all possibilities using standard functionality but no good.
Would you mind to share the design and the process will be great help.

Urgent help needed in inserting data into a custom table in oracle WorkFlow

Hi
I am trying to get data from the WF and insert into a custom table..
I read that workflow procedures WONT allow commits...
Oracle Workflow will not support autonomous commits in any procedure it calls directly. If you need to perform commits, then embed your SQL in a subprocedure and declare it as an autonomous block. This subprocedure must be capable of being rerun. Additionally, note that Oracle Workflow handles errors by rolling back the entire procedure and setting its status to ERROR. Database updates performed by autonomous commits cannot be rolled back, so you will need to write your own compensatory logic for error handling
Have anyone did this..
Please give me some idea ...It is urgent
I am getting data using getitemattribute..and try to insert it into a custom table

Is Oracle Workflow required to execute OWB schedules?

Hi,
I want to create and deploy a schedule in OWB 10gR2 to automatically run my OWB process flow every week. I would like to know
1) Whether I need to install Oracle workflow too in order to execute the process flow as per the schedule created?
2) If not, how does the OWB scheduler work?
3) Also, if the scheduled proces flow terminates due to some error, how do I resume executing it from the point of termination after correcting the error?
Thanks
Amit

Hi Amit,
1. Is the workflow monitor a standard part of Oracle workflow,or does one need a separate license for it?All parts Oracle workflow (workflow server, workflow monitor, workflow builder) licensed with Oracle database licenses,
so if you buy Oracle database you can use workflow components without any limitations.
2. In your approach, you had mentioned that there should be no transitions for error, but I would like to send an email notification to the DW administrator incase of an error before suspending the process flow.My recomendation is to use additional PL/SQL procedure which will executed periodically (for example every 30 minutes, scheduled with DBMS_JOBS/DBMS_SCHEDULER),
in this procedure you can use query on OWB public view (ALL_RT_AUDIT_EXECUTIONS) or workflow repository views/tables
for identification failed steps/mappings (if you decide to use OWB public view) or "stucked" processflow (if you will use workflow views/tables,
algorithm of identification stucked processflow you can see in workflow PL/SQL package WF_ENGINE, procedure ProcessStuckProcess).
Using post-mapping is more expensive because you need modify each mapping which you want to monitor for fails.
Example of query for identifiaction failed steps (PL/SQL prcoedures and mappings) within period of time datetime1..datetime2 with ALL_RT_AUDIT_EXECUTIONS
select * from ALL_RT_AUDIT_EXECUTIONS where task_type in ('PLSQL','PLSQLProcedure')
and NOT (return_result is null or return_result='OK') and :datetime1<=created_on and created_on<:datetime2

Require Cost /Price of ORACLE Workflow Server ...!

Dear All,
I want to purchase license of ORACLE Workflow Server for NT operating system.
Anyone who can give me detail price /cost or the address of URL fom where I can get it cost /price anther other informations like that.
Thanks,
Farhan Mazhar

You can go to http://www.oracle.com/corporate/contact/ and look for the appropriate contact, and talk to a Sales Representative. A quick answer is that Oracle Workflow is bundled with the Database and iAS Products - so if you have these products, you should have the license for Oracle Workflow.

Oracle Workflow 2.6 with Oracle 8.1.7 for linux

Is Oracle Workflow Server 2.6 available for Linux as a
standalone product against an Oracle 8.1.7 database?
Oracle Workflow does not seem to be included in the Integration
Server option with the 8.1.7 installation.
I've only found the Oracle Workflow Server included with the 9i
database. Will this work with 8.1.7 as well or does it require
9i db?
Thanks in advance for your help,
Josi Antonio

OWB process flow & Oracle Workflow

Hi,
In order to deploy the OWB process flow packages, is it necessary to have Oracle workflow installed on the Target server? When I tried to deploy a process flow package to the target database (10gR2 db), it required a user called owf_mgr. As far I know, owf_mgr is the admin user for workflow. Can this feature work without OWF being installed?
Thanks for your help

Oracle Workflow 2.6.3 Installation

Hi,
On a Redhat Linux server 3, I have installed Oracle 10g Infrastructure and Middle Tier. I have also a 10g Databse installed on this machine. I want to install Oracle Workflow 2.6.3.
I used the Contnet Management SDK 10g(9.0.4.0) CD and run the installer. AS mentioned in Oracle Note:265554.1, stopped the installation up on the Workflow Configuration Assitant. Then changed the wfinstall.csh file as mentioned in the note. Then executed the wfinstall.csh from command prompt. This invokes a GUI which ask for few parameters.
I would appreciate if you help me in filling this parameters.
1. What is that Sys password? Is it the password for Infrastructure databse or that of the 10g database.
I tried with infrastructure password and connection details. This installtion hangs at the following.
WorkflowCA: /opt/oracle/product/904_portal/bin/sqlplus OWF_MGR/<WFCA WF
PASSWORD> @/opt/oracle/product/904_portal/wf/sql/wfcorec.sql OWF_MGR <WFCA WF
PASSWORD>
When I tried with 10g database, it is not connecting. It shows sys connect failure error.
I am able to connect to both infrastructure and 10g database from Sqlplus locally and using Jdeveloper from remote machines.
All the web urls (EM/PORTAL) are working.
Also on general ,
1. Can the workflow 2.6.3 installed to the on the 10g Portal database? Does it require a seperate database? Can this database co-exist in the same Server?
Please help with your suggestions.

Vinod,
The SYS password is the SYS password of the database into which you wish to install the workflow server.
I would recommend you connect to SYS to the database separately to test the connection- sqlplus sys/<syspwd>@<db> as sysdba
Also, what install are you trying to use? Just workflow or 10gAS and workflow ?
if you are just looking for oracle workflow 2.6.3 to be installed on a 10g database without any 10gAS, you can use the workflow server shipped with the 10g database.
If you are using workflow shipped with the 10gAS, you are on the right track- install workflow from the CMSDK cd onto any database of you choice.
Hope this helps...
