Process flow - Mannual - How to interevene thru Control Center

I have Mannual process in my process flow. I know how to intervene thru Repository Browser. I go to repository browser and do expedite execution and process continues.
In the user guide they tell this can be done thru control center also. Can anyone explain me how to intervene and continue the process thru control center.

From the top of my head, if you are in the control center, go to the job when running (the bottom panel) and right mouse click on the job. You can stop a job... I do not have a current example, but I would expect it to be in there...

Process Flow ignores name and location for Control- and Log-Files

Hi!
Our OWB Version is 10.1.0.3.0 - DB Version 9.2.0.7.0 - OWF Version 2.6.2
Clients and server are running on Windows. Database contains target schemas as well as OWB Design and Runtime, plus OWF repositories. The source files to load reside on the same server as the database.
I have for example a SQL*Loader Mapping MAP_TEXT which loads one flat file "text.dat" into a table stg_text.
The mapping MAP_TEXT is well configured and runs perfect. i.e. Control file "text.ctl" is generated to location LOC_CTL, flat file "text.dat" read from another location LOC_DATA, bad file "text.bad" is written to LOC_BAD and the log file "text.log" is placed into LOC_LOG. All locations are registered in runtime repository.
When I integrate this mapping into a WorkFlow Process PF_TEXT, then only LOC_DATA and LOC_BAD are used. After deploying PF_TEXT, I execute it and found out, that Control and Log file are placed into the directory <OWB_HOME>\owb\temp and got generic names <Mapping Name>.ctl and <Mapping Name>.log (in this case MAP_TEXT.ctl and MAP_TEXT.log).
How can I influence OWB to execute the Process Flow using the locations configured for the mapping placed inside?
Has anyone any helpfull idea?
Thx,
Johann.

I didn't expect to be the only one to encounter this misbehaviour of OWB.
Meanwhile I found out what the problem is and had to recognize that it is like it is!
There is no solution for it till Paris Release.
Bug Nr. 3099551 at Oracle MetaLink adresses this issue.

Process Flow errors - how do you see them

Hi there
Created and deployed a process flow but when run it either comes up with warnings or errors. Really simple process flow to run two mappings which, individually run fine. when run the process flow in Conrol Cenetr has error or warning symbol, click job details but can't see what the error, warning message is.
Any ideas how to see them - this is the first process flow I've created?
Many Thanks

Hi
You can either;
* use the repository browser and view the audit trail there (must start the browser listener first).
* use the OWB SQL Developer reports that use the public views on the exchange, the error details are recorded in the public views.
http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/warehouse/htdocs/Experts/owb_sqldeveloper.zip
I created these for a quicker turnaround time in building/debugging process flows. The browser is the official mechanism.
This is fixed in 10.2.0.3 - you will see the errors in the control center manager, where you might have expected them in the first place!

How to create a control center service ?

Hallo,
i have a server with 1 DB Home (with 2 instances) and 1 OWB Home.
I have OWB repositories in both instances and can connect to both via Design Center.
But trying to open the Control Center Manage in instance 2 fails with:
RTC-5301 Control Center service not available
In instance 1 it is working.
ps -ef | grep owb
shows me 3 processes running for the 1. instance
(based on owb/bin/unix/run_service.sh),
but none for the 2. instance
So my question is:
How can i create this missing service ?
I checked this doc http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B31080_01/doc/install.102/b28224/install_rep02.htm#CCHEDJBD
but the information on this topic is not very detailed.
Thanks,
Jochen

Hi,
you must use the repository assistant, advanced option, to create a new repository owner. If you want to use both control center in one design rep: Then you must register it in the design center: create a new control center. To switch between both you must make one of them to the active control center/configuration.
Then you will have another services with the name oft he new cc.

TIP: How to easily access Control Center in IOS7

I tried hundreds of times to access the Control Center by "swiping up" from any screen to no avail. Then, I figured out the trick: Start your swipe from the Home button and not the screen itself. Works everytime. (Also, try swiping down from the speaker to reach the Notification Center).

Just found the apex_access_control table in my schema.
Guess I'll just use that.

How to connect to control center from omb

i have problem.

How to pass a paramter to a schedued process flow

I have a process flow with a one varchar type parameter.
I want to schedule this process flow and for that I have created a schedule and then attached it to the process flow using Process Flow -> Configuration -> Referred Calendar Option.
Now my issue was how can I pass the parameter value into the process flow?
OWB Version : 10.2.x
Thanks,
mc

Hi Si,
This is what I did.
I have deployed the process flow with schedule and then goto control center and start the job.
Then under parameters it's ask for a "EVAL_LOCATION" value. Which is something else.
In my process flow I have a parameter called "Job_Name" and I want to pass a value for that parameter. But in either control center, no in direct API allow me to pass a value for that parameter.
Thanks,
mc

Error on Control Center while trying to run jobs

Hi,
I got a problem while trying to run the scheduled jobs or process flows.
We tried restarting the control center service manually. It is started without throwing any errors at the backend. But when I open the control center service and try to start or stop a job, its throwing the below error.
The error is as below.
ORA-20029: The control center service is not currently available
ORA-06512: at "OWB_REPO.WB_RTI_EXCEPTIONS", line 107

I am not able to resolve it. Could any one of you please help me in resolving it?
It is very urgent. Thanks a ton in advance

SriGP.

Hi Oliver,
Thanks again!!
There are a lot of queues in DBA_Queues.
But how can we know which queues should be enabled and which queues should be disabled? As I observed, All the Exception queues are disabled and the reamining queues are enabled.
About the parameter aq_tm_processes, we have not changed the value of it. Previously, all the jobs used to execute perfectly with the same setting. So, I dont think the value is a problem.
Recently, we had the below problem in database, because of which all the jobs got stalled/hanged. The system DBA had resolved this problem by extending the SYSTEM tablespace. After that all the database is fine except the OWB jobs. Is there any impact on the on the owb jobs because of the below error?
ORA-00604: error occurred at recursive SQL level 1
ORA-01653: unable to extend table SYS.AUD$ by 8192 in tablespace SYSTEM
ORA-02002: error while writing to audit trail
ORA-00604: error occurred at recursive SQL level 1
ORA-01653: unable to extend table SYS.AUD$ by 8192 in tablespace SYSTEM
Thanks in advance,

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)

Scheduling Process flows in scheduling tool Control M

Hi,
We need to schedule 3 to 4 process flows through the general scheduling tool "Control M". So how do we do this? I mean where should we login to run the OWB jobs (Process Flows) through Control M.
Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks,
Harsha

Create a shell script that will take in the required parameters you need (i.e.connection User/pwd@SID and OWB mapping inputs if required), which call sqlplus with a procedure that will run your workflow.
My current client migrates all OWB incl Worflows created through OWB by the means of export. This is why the prefix of the workflow activity will differ from an environment from another.
Here is a procedure that will launch the OWF and wait for the workflow to be completed before it exits and return control to CONTROL-M.

How to specify the Process Flow Module with SQLPLUS_EXEC_TEMPLATE.SQL ?

Hi, we have a couple of process flow modules that have PF Packages and Process Flows with the same name.
E.g
PFMOD1 (Module)
FILELOAD (Package)
PF1 (Pf)
PFMOD2 (Module)
FILELOAD (Package)
PF1 (Pf)
Normally we can specify "FILELOAD/PF1" as a paramater to the procedure SQLPLUS_EXEC_TEMPLATE.SQL in order to initiate the running of an OWB process flow but how can the system distinguish between modules ?
Anyone done this ?
Thanks
Paul

If you deployed the packages to the same location then the second deployment replaced the result of the first one (actually a new version of the process flow was created). You can execute only the latest version...

Robert

How to execute a process flow?

I create a process flow that contains mappings, it generate an xml code
I want to know how to execute a process flow an how to know it sucess or fails ?
have you any idea?
thank you

Hi
You can also use 3rd party tools or batch scripts there is a SQL script for executing any OWB executable (sqlplus_exec_template.sql in owb/rtp/sql) see the post here;

Customer consignment materials - process flow

Hi PP Guru's,
pls explain customer consignment materials - process flow ?
how to recd parts and transaction for consignment parts.
customer ordered FG, but some of the components (items) customer consignment parts, other parts buying from other vendor.
Regards,
Sankaran

One alternative would be:
- Customer material (CM) are non valuated ones.
- BoM contains both CM and normal raw materials (CS01)
- Routing ot Recipes is the base for manufacturing costing (CA01 or C201).
- Create a process order for the product (COR1)
- Do the whole processing of the order (release, GI, GR, Confirmation, Settlement).
-.Delivery the product to the customer (and eventually the remaining CM )
The process is just like the normal, only there are some differences in costing, and the stock of CM has no value.
