OWB Process Flow - Transition Warinig OR Error - Question

Hi all,
I have a question. In a Simple Process Flow I have:
Start -> Mapping -> Warning -> Email
-> Erro -> Email
->Sucess - End
Is necessary use 3 Transition ?
Can I do only 2 Transition like
Start -> Mapping -> Warning OR Error -> Email
->Sucess - End
How can I do "Warning OR Error" on a Transition?
If i put any condition on the Transition:
Start -> Mapping -> Email
->Sucess - End
It means
Start -> Mapping -> Warning OR Error -> Email
->Sucess - End
Thanks

If i put any condition on the Transition:
Start -> Mapping -> Email
->Sucess - End
It means
Start -> Mapping -> Warning OR Error -> Email
->Sucess - End
it exactly what you need

  • Best practices to design OWB Process Flows

    Hi All,
    I am using OWB to develop historical data warehouse. For this I have created few mappings that load data from source tables to staging tables and then from staging to target tables.
    Now I am designing process flows to execute these mappings. Can someone suggest me what are the best practices to design process flows?
    I have few questions in my mind that I am looking answers for:
    1) Should I keep the mapping to load staging and target tables in different process flows or in one?
    2) Do I need to include an email activity for each mapping failure or in other words how can I integrate all mapping errors in one email?
    3) I am using two outgoing transitions from each mapping; one for success and another unconditional, is that right method or I should use three transitions one for success, one for warning and one for error?
    4) I have created some email activity templates that I am using in process flows. For development environment I have used test from_address and to_address. But when I actually deploy these process flows in production, these addresses will need to be changed. Will I need to change these address individually in each process flow or in other words what is the best way to deploy process flows?
    I am using 10gR2 database and OWB.
    Any help will be appreciated.
    Thanks,

  • OWB Process flow restart??

    OWB Process flow restart??
    Set up:
    OWB repository 10.2.0.2.0
    OWB client 10.2.0.2.8.
    Oracle version 10G (10.2.0.3.0).
    I have created a process flow(PF1) that has say 5 maps and on'SUCCESS' or FAILURE sends an email.
    I would like to restart the PF1 (after data fix) from the point of failure.
    Did any one has any idea for such a scenario ?
    Thank you!

    So, if you have a process flow package with 2 processes, process1 and process2, create a third process called RunAll.
    In process RunAll you will first run process1, then connect it to process2 with an transition arrow having the conditon set to Success.
    You could also have 2 other transition arrows going from process1 having conditions of Error and Warning (these would go somewhere else besides process2.).
    Then, you would merely run process RunAll. If process1 fails, then process2 never runs, since the transition arrows define the path of success, error, and warning.
    Hope this helps!

  • How to execute SQL scripts using OWB Process flows ?

    Hi,
    I have some SQL Scripts. I have to execute them using OWB Process flows.
    Can i get any document or link which helps me in achieving this?
    Thanks in Advance,
    SriGP

    Sutirtha,
    Thank you very much. I really appreciate all of your responses.
    I have one more question ( Sorry for flooding you with lot of questions :) )
    How to capture the errors which occured inside the SQL Scripts.
    My scenario is like this. I have two sql scripts Script_1.sql and Script2.sql namely. I would like to put dependency on the execution of the scripts.
    If Script_1.sql executes succesfully without any errors, then EXECUTE Script_2.sql
    else if Script_1.sql execution contains errors then DON'T EXECUTE Script_2.sql
    As of now, i observed that the Process flow shows Success State even if there is an error in the sql script execution. Because of which i was not able to put dependency on the execution of the scripts.
    I think i can do it by tweaking(changing) the code inside the SQL Scripts, like logging the errors in some log table and reading it before the next script execution.
    But the restriction is, I Should not touch/change the existing SQL Scripts.
    Do we have any mechanism in the ProcessFlows to identify the SQL Errors that occurred during execution of SQL Scripts ?
    Please suggest any idea on this. It will be great if you can help in this.
    Thanks in advance,
    SriGP.

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

    dear all:

    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 check SQL activity in OWB Process flow

    Hi,
    In OWB process flow,I need to check SQL activity. How to check that? I am using OWB 11g R2.
    Regards,
    Rashmik

    Gowtham,
    Well the following hint is provided by oracle warehouse builder help.........
    The time-out setting for the workflow engine determines how long the File Exist activity waits for a file. If the file does not arrive before the time-out setting expires, the File Exists activity terminates with errors.
    well someone with deep workflow knowledge can answer this one...
    If you get the answer please share with us.....

  • Oracle 10G Database Control and Scheduling OWB Process Flow

    Does anyone know how to go about scheduling an OWB Process Flow from
    Oracle 10G Data Base Control. I knew how to do this with Oracle Enterprise Manager 9.2 but we recently upgraded to Oracle Db 10G and the interface has changed significantly.
    Now the interface seems to require a PL/SQL stored procedure to be executed.
    Is there a template procedure that is installed with 10G Data Base Control as there was for 9.2 i.e. oem_exec_template.sql?
    Thanks! Deadline approaching fast...
    Marion

    I've used the oem_exec_template.sql successfully with OWB 10.1 and Oracle 10G Database Control, with a little trial and error at first.
    I'm assuming that your job execution environment is set up correctly, ie. that you can properly execute jobs via the host agent.
    1. Log on to Database Control as SYSTEM, select Jobs from the links at the bottom of the page
    2. In the Results section, Create Job, select "SQL Script" and press Go
    3. In the General section, enter Job Name, and as SQL Script enter e.g.:
    @/u01/app/oracle/owb_oracle_home/owb/rtp/sql/oem_exec_template.sql owb_runtime WF_LOC PROCESS MY_PROCESS , ,
    4. In the Databases section, add your target database
    5. In the Credentials section, I select "Override Preferred Credentials" and use the agent account (oracle on my Linux system) and db user owb_access (OWB Runtime Access user)
    6. Review Schedule tab and submit
    Comments on step 3:
    - the oem_exec_template.sql script must be installed according to the path specified in step 3, on the database host where the OWB Runtime Repository is located
    - owb_runtime is the owner of my OWB Runtime Repository
    - WF_LOC is the name of my Workflow Location as seen in OWB Deployment Manager
    - MY_PROCESS is the name of a deployed Workflow Process
    - the commas indicate that I don't supply any system or custom parameters.
    - step 3 is actually a shell command line that is interpreted by eg. /bin/sh on Unix or cmd on Windows, and must obey proper quoting rules. On windows, I had to specify the empty commas as "\," (including dblquotes)

  • Set complex condition of process flow transition by OMB skript

    Hi,
    i would like to set a complex condition for a process flow transition with OMB+.
    If i use:
    OMBALTER PROCESS_FLOW 'somename' ADD TRANSITION 'yyy' FROM ACTIVITY 'a' to 'b' SET PROPERTIES (TRANSITION_CONDITION) VALUES ('some complex condition')
    the skript sets the condition but the radiobutton within the transition condition editor still point to 'Enumerated Condition' and the complex condition editor sheet, where my condition should be printed is empty. But the Object details within the Process editor shows my condition correct.
    We use 11gR1 11.1.0.7.0 (OWB & DB).
    Has anybody a clue if i am able to set the transitioncondition to COMPLEX ? Or is it a bug ?
    Your Help is appreciated, thanks
    Thomas

    Hi Thomas
    You use the property COMPLEX_CONDITION on the activity for complex transition condition expressions.

  • 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

  • How to stop OWB Process Flow job

    I have a problem.
    For scheduling OWB Process Flows I use EM (create Job - SQL Script) in which I schedule jobs with script @/home/oracle/scripts/oem_exec_template.sql.
    Sometimes it happens, that the job doesn't finish and I also can't expedite it through Workflow manager because it is not listed there. So next executions for this job doesn't fire, because it is still active (it is shown in EM as Running …..and also I can't stop it there).
    I also can't find the session for this job and also in dictionary I can't find the job, I went through these views, but nowhere I can't find any of my scheduled jobs, and of course also not the ones that are still running.
    DBA_SCHEDULER_JOBS
    DBA_SCHEDULER_RUNNING_JOBS
    DBA_SCHEDULER_JOB_RUN_DETAILS
    Where in dictionary can I find my jobs?
    How can I kill my running jobs?
    OS: Red Hat Linux 3
    DB: 10.1.0.3.0
    OWB: 10.1.0.2.0
    I'm quite desperate about this isue,
    Thank you,
    Gorazd

    Gorazd,
    the best way to identify problem with processflow execution - using OWB Runtime Audit Browser.
    Other variant - using public OWB runtime view, for example for reporting executions of you process run this select under OWB repository owner or any OWB user:
    select created_on,elapse_time,return_result from all_rt_audit_executions
    where object_name='<your processflow name in uppercase>' order by created_on;
    RETURN_RESULT must be equal 'OK' and ELAPSE_TIME (in seconds) greater then 0.
    If this query returns rows with null RETURN_RESULT or RETURN_RESULT<>'OK' or with zero elapse_time and this cases match (by date) with EM problems then you need analyze process executions in more detail with Runtime Audit Browser.
    Alternatively use select from view ALL_RT_AUDIT_EXEC_MESSAGES / ALL_RT_AUDIT_MAP_RUN_ERRORS / ALL_RT_AUDIT_PROC_RUN_ERRORS.

  • How to call OWB Process Flow from APEX?

    Hello.
    I was wondering if there is a way that I can have a OWB process flow kick off from a button in APEX? I know you can have APEX perform PL/SQL upon being clicked, so I am wondering if there is a way that I can do the same for a process flow? We are looking to have a manual kick off for a job and we are trying to use APEX for this. Any information would be great!

    There was some work a few years ago, but not sure it was ever productized. You can integrate with any 3rd party scheduler (in a course manner), see the post here;
