Problem in running Process flow

Hi,
I’m bit new to OWB. I made mapping which I deployed successfully. I can run through control center and it works fine (it just fills a table). However when I made the process through process flow and after its validation , tries to start it gives me error RTC-5170: The selected objects do not require deployment as they are all up to date in the Control Center, which is followed by RTC-5006 and obviously no data generated in the table. How can I pass this error? Secondly I tried to schedule this, firstly it doesnot ask for the process flow during schedule, secondly even from schedule the map doesnot run.
Appreciate any help to run the process flow.
Regards
Yasir

In the process flow validate and generate the process flow. then go back to design center and go one step above to process flow package module and right click and deploy the process flow package. once the deployment is successfull then go back to the process flow and right click and start the process flow.
This should work.

OWB 11g Problem in running Process flow

I’ve build a process flow as described in “Getting Started with Oracle Warehouse Builder 11g”. But if I run the process flow I get a warning message “You have to deploy this object before running” followed by the error RTC-5170: The selected objects do not require deployment as they are all up to date in the Control Center.
Therefore I’m not able to run the process flow. What’s wrong? It looks so easy in Getting Started but it doesn’t work.
I’ve found two threads regarding this error from last year in this forum. But there is no solution for OWB 11g.
Has anyone an advice for me?

I've successfully installed OWF as described in Installation guide (all components are on the sam server).
But when I deploy a workflow in OWB I get some errors. In the job details
I find ORA-00942 and RPE-02053. It seems that the workflow repository is missing.
Are there additional steps for creating a workflow repository?
Or what is wrong? All installation logs (wf.log and workflow.log) are without errors and with success messages.
Any idea?

Problem Running Process Flow When Database Objects Deployed Outside of OWB

Hi
I am having a few problems running process flows that I'm deploying through OMB.
My set up is as follows:
All database updates are done outside of OWB (for version control purposes).
Each object within OWB is exported to an MDL file, which is then imported into the production repository using an OMB Script.
Once everything has been imported into my production version, I'm then deploying the process flows from within the OMB script.
When I then go to run the process flow, I get the following error ...
RPE-02075: Oracle Workflow failed to process the execution request for Activity LOAD_COUNTRY_PF:LOAD_COUNTRY. This may be because dependent objects have not yet been deployed.
I can see through the Control Center, that the status of all the objects that the process flow is going to use are set to having a Design Status of 'New'. So obviously OWB doesn't realize that these objects already exist in the database, which is why the process flow errors.
Is there any way around this? Can I somehow set the Design Status of all the objects to 'Unchanged' through OMB? Is there a way to fool the process flow into thinking that the objects do exist? Can I run the process flow outside of OWB?
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks
Liffey

Hi Liffey,
Is there any way around this?
Can I somehow set the Design Status of all the objects to 'Unchanged' through OMB?
Is there a way to fool the process flow into thinking that the objects do exist?of course you must deploy mappings before deploying processflow
and as I know there is no legal method for avoiding this.

Oleg
PS. Look at this thread [Deploying without Deploy|http://forums.oracle.com/forums/thread.jspa?messageID=2655726&#2655726]

Running process flow from sqlplus

hi everyone,
using sqlplus_exec_template.sql to run process flow.
but message keeps appearing that task is not found
I have an oracle workflow repository on another server.
what should I use as parameters?
for example location name?
thank you
owen veeneman

Hi
If you can create the Process Flow code, you can deploy and execute from SQLPLUS as follows.
1. First you have to compile the package from SQLPLUS into you target get schema. For example. SQL>@c:\package.pls.
2. Then find out the prarmeter from function main of the package. Write a simple code as follows and run it from SQL. Just substitute whatever applicable to you.
declare
V_PROCESS_CODE           VARCHAR2(10);
V_FREQUENCY_CODE     VARCHAR2(1);
V_RETCODE                NUMBER(10);
V_WB_RT                WB_RT_MAPAUDIT.WB_RT_NAME_VALUES;
begin
V_PROCESS_CODE := 'CF_SUMM;
V_FREQUENCY_CODE := 'D';
v_retcode := DM_CASHFLOW_SUMM_MAP.main(V_PROCESS_CODE, V_FREQUENCY_CODE, V_WB_RT);
dbms_output.put_line(v_retcode || ' Retcode.');
end;

Tools for running process flows and mappings

The operations/production area is responsible for running process flows and mappings in a day by day base. As developer, I need to implement a solution that allow them run these artifacts. For this purpose, is there any tool apart from Control Center ????
Thnks

The scripts you mentioned (sqlplus_exec_background_template.sql and sqlplus_exec_template.sql) can be used for command line execution of mappings.
We do not run these in Oracle Workflow, as we already have an enterprise scheduling platform, Redwood Cronacle in our case. (Also one finds AppWorx and others in this area, see e.g. http://www.bmc.com/USA/Corporate/attachments/BMC_Article2.pdf)

Can we run process-flow from outside OWB

Hi All,
I am scheduling my process-flows daily in night. If any process-flow fails, they will rectify the problems and they want to run the process flow manually, outside own, like SQL.
Regards,
Kumar.

Hi Detlef,
I tried to execute the following, I dint get any response and the sqlplus closed automatically. When I saw the execution details no executing had taken palce. And even I tried to execute the command by commenting the exit in the script.
sqlplus RA_OWB1/RA_OWB1@RADEV1 @C:\OraHome_1\owb\rtp\sql\sqlplus_exec_template.sql RA_OWB1 PlatformSchema ProcessFlow SAI_PF "," ","
Is there any external (oracle function), so that I can pass any number of Process-flows as parameters for execution. Client will create a form with a list of check boxes and execute button. when the user selects the check boxes according to his rerquirements and click execute. then all the process-flows should run.
Regards,
Kumar.

Costing problem while running Process order

Hi,
This is a problem relating to costing of HALB material.. While doing process order for a fert material (BOM of FERT material contains a HALB and two ROH materials) a window occurs while saving ' Error when calculating costs, see log'. Why is this happening? I have checked the BOM , all components are subjected to cost relevancy (X). For HALB material no values are manually maintained in planned price 1,2,3 fields in Costing 2 view of material master. Do we have to manually maintain or will it be taken from the ROH materials in HALB BOM. For ROH materials values are comin in planned price 1,2,3 fields in Costing 2 view . If this has to be done what is the configuration. The ultimate issue is while running process order for FERT material no costing is happening for HALB material.Pls share your suggestions. Rewards assured.
regards
Ashok

Hi,
when you have raw semifinish and finish material as in sequence then first order of semifinish has to be created and it will capture raw material cost and other expences if incurred after confirmation of semifinish material you will be able to create a finish material production order b' cause that semi- finish material yo have to consume for finsh order.
if at all first sfg order has updated the price of sfg (after settlement of order) then it will take correct price for finish material
reward points if you find it useful.

Problem with copying Process Flows in OWB 10.2.0.1..

Hello
We have a complex process flow which runs fine. When we try to duplicate the process flow in design center by copy/paste operation, the new process flow seems to execute activities out of sequence. We tried saving/synchronizing the process flow (eact activity individually) with no luck.
We checked the repository browser and see all the activities and transitions in the right order. I looked at both OWB repository tables as well as Workflow tables/views. It just seems that the run time picks up the data in a different order and executes it.
Any idea on how to debug this?. We can't create each process flow from scratch every time we need to add new one which will be slightly different one from an existing process flow.
Thanks
Prakash

Find and read the thread about when queries take too long.
Something is different between the systems, possibly
* indexing
* volume of data
* connect-by structure in table data
* initialization or session settings

How to run process flow outside owner project?

Hi,
I have two process flows (process_flow_A and process_flow_B) in two different projects (projectA, projectB). Process_flow_A has to be run after process_flow_B is finished. So what I am thinking now is either put process_flow_A in Project B or put process_flow_B in project A. But how to see process flows which are not in it's owner project? Or is there any other ways to do this task?
thanks.

It can be done - in a round about way.
You can call a SQLPlus operator. The operator will call sqlplus_exec_template.sql. You can use this script to call your other process flow in the other project.
..owb_home/owb/rtp/sql/sqlplus_exec_template.sql
If you open up the .sql file, you will see examples of how to use it to call mappings, process flows, etc.
Hope this helps..

Looks like you have an obvious code error, invalid cast operation in your code. Do you get this error when running in local emulator.
You can try the following article on how to debug published cloud service, assuming you have VS ultimate.

If you check out the post here you will see the script sqlplus_exec_template.sql mentioned, this can be used to execute mappings and process flows from the command like;

Run process flow over database link

Hi guys,
I have two projects here, A and B. Each project has its own process flow, lets say Process A (in project A)and process B(in project B). I need to run process B in process A, so I use the database link, and WB_RT_API_EXEC.run_task function. But when I run the process, I get the following error:
ORA-20001: Task not found - Please check the Task Type, Name and Location are correct.
ORA-06512: at "OWBRTR2.WB_RT_API_EXEC", line 704
does anyone have some idea how to fix this? or any other suggestions for how to do it? thanks.

Hi Gowtham,
I am using the following function to send execution details of the process-flow. This process-flow is having 20 mappings. This is working fine.
The cIient requirment is to pass email-IDs from a back-end table(sam_mail_notification) with columns(smtp, from_address and to_address), right now the function is working on static(constant) values.
I had modified the function according to the requirement, can you please have a look at the function, and tell me is it correct. Because the values should come from database table. will this function work.

Hi Federico,
When you tranport Process Chains, initially chains will be available under "Not Asigned" node in RSPC Transaction. The transported chains wont be get highlighted automatically. Manually need to open the chain in update mode and activate it on Quality.
Hope it will help you to resolve the problem.

Process Flow error- RPE 01003

Hello,
We are facing a very strange problem while running process flows in OWB. We are getting followig error when we execute process flows.
InfrastructureException: RPE-01003: An infrastructure condition prevented the request from completing.
- Io exception: The Network Adapter could not establish the connection
It's strange because we are able to connect to source and target database outside owb. Also, the location test is successful. Any idea why it fails to connect while running process flow only. We tested the db links created by owb. They work as well.
We are using OWB 10.2 on Oracle 10G installed on Linux RAC machines.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks

Major problem - Process Flows hanging randomly - 11.2.0.1

Hi,
We are experiencing the following problem.
Randomly process flows sit doing nothing.
Have ran some days and totally fine. Process flows fine - each activity has all the necesassry outgoing activities.
What causes this?
If run again - fine.
How do we resolve.
We need to be able to kick off the process and leave it to run without having to check if it hanging al the time.
Any help/advice would be great.
Many Thanks

Hi,
I found out that wrong ordering of transitions may cause strange problems. In owb, check that the outgoing transistions of each operator are numbered sequenty (0,1,2, ...). Sometimes, some number appear twice, e.g. 0,1,1). This often happens after an existing transition was deleted.
And make sure that the "else" transition (the one without any condition) always has the highest number.
Regards,
Carsten.
