Process Flow - ordering of mappings

Question

hello group,
i've developed a simple process flow which loads several mappings in a sequence.
it has to be stated that mapping A has to be loaded before mapping B.
when i am running this process flow i get a litte bit confused.
in the job details mapping B is loaded before,
in repository browser the same information.
does this really mean, that mapping B is loaded before mapping A?
or how can i check if the ordering was ok?
are there some mechanism inside the process flow editor to check this?
thanks for your infos,
s.v.e.n

Hi,
the owb has a problem when you place a new operator (e. g. a mapping) into an existing workflow or change the transitions. After this for the source object of this new object the outgoing transitions will get a wrong and duplicate number.
You can find these problems as rep_owner with the following script:
select *
  from all_iv_process_transitions
where (source_activity_id, transition_order) in
    select source_activity_id, transition_order 
     from all_iv_process_transitions
    group by source_activity_id, transition_order having count(*) > 1
  order by source_activity_id, transition_order;You must change the number for these transitions.
PS: To control the correct order you can use the workflow manager. There you can see the ordering at runtime of a workflow.
