RefreshValidValues() is not working in BPM 10GR3

refreshValidValues() stopped working after I made changes to my BPM 10GR3 presentation.
Any reasons why?
Is it because I added extra buttons to the ppt or is it because I added two hyperlinks to the ppt?

Hi Abhishek,
Thanks for immediate response.
I have done the following steps:
IR:
idoc out bound interface
Idoc inbound interface
Idoc abstract interface for sender
Idoc abstract interface for receiver
Message mapping
Interface mapping
Integration Process(BPM)
here Receive-wait(60 minutes)-Send these three step types are used.
ID:
Sender business system
Reciever business system here I create the Reciever Communication channel
Import the Integration Process from IR
Two reciever determinations(source to BPM and BPM to target)
Two interface determinations(source to BPM and BPM to target)
Receiver agreement
I have done like this, if any else required Please let me know.
Regards,
Shalini Shah.

Wait Step is not working in BPM, any extra settings required?

Dear Friends,
I am working on BPM scenario first time.
I am sending the Idoc from one ECC system to ohter ECC system using XI.
but in receiver side it has to updated after 60 minutes, for this 60 minutes requirment I am using Wait condition in BPM, but it's not waiting 60 minutes.
the Idoc is receiving reciever side whenever sender is sending the Idoc.
the Idoc is not going through BPM,it's going directly. In this case can I do some extra settings?
In BPM Receiver-wait-send step types are used.
Please help me in this issue.

Shalini Shah.

RefreshValidValues() is not working

Hi all,
I have a text field which when populated invokes a method called as onNameChange().
This method then populates the a drop down field below . The field name is PersonName. This is a drop down field.
I use a dynamic method to populate this field and I have an array called as PersonNameArray.
I populate this Array with some prefix values as well as values entered by the user in the text field by invoking onNameChange().
So the values in my PersonNameArray are {"Name1", "Name2"} pre-populated
And a third value from the user.
i.e.
PersonNameArray[0] = "Name1";
PersonNameArray[1] = "Name2";
PersonNameArray[2] = firstName;
Now I also use refreshValidValues to populate the drop down below and call it in the following way:-
this.refreshValidValues(dataId : "this.PersonNameArray");
But there is no population of values in the drop down.
What's the problem?
Is the keyword this a problem?
But I tried without using the keyword and get the same problem?

If you're trying to associate a string attribute with a combo dropdown to select from on a presentation, suggest you follow the steps listed below. This will automatically populate a combo dropdown with valid values.
1. Add the "personName" attribute to your BPM Object
2. Add a new method to the BPM Object called retrieveName. Click the Properties tab for this new method. Since the logic in this method will set the list of potential values in the dropdown for the object’s personName attribute, the Return Type should be changed to String[] (a string array). If you will use SQL to look up the person's name, change the Server Side Method to Yes.
3. Now that you have a method that will return a list of valid values for the personName attribute, you need to associate the new method with the personName attribute. Double-click the pesonName attribute. In the middle panel, change the Valid Values radio option to Dynamic Method. Select the method you just added from the dropdown
4. Ensure the personName's attribute is associated with a combo dropdown on the presentation.
5. If you would like to change the values in the combo dropdown based on other fields that have been picked on the presentation (e.g. perhaps listing the persons in a city), then consider doing this. Change the method described in step 2 above to return the list of persons based on the criteria you pick (still a return type of String[ ]).
6. Using a field’s On Change Invoke property, a method can fire that will automatically update other fields on the presentation. To update a combo dropdown on a presentation (personName in this case) dynamically based on the value in another field in the presentation, you have to add a method that causes the personName attribute's valid values to be refreshed. Add the following logic in a new method (call it "refreshPersonName"). As the name implies, this forces a refresh of the values in the combo dropdown for the personName attribute.
// this is not a typo – put quotes around the attribute’s name
refreshValidValues("personName");7. You next need to have the one attribute ("city" in this example) invoke the method you added in step 6 that refreshs the other attribute ("personName" in this example) using logic. Click the "city" attribute in the presentation and on the Properties tab, change the On Change Invoke property for the city field to use the new refreshPersonName( ) method. Now when the city is changed on the presentation, the list of the personName dropdown dynamically changes automatically.

XI Alerts not working for BPM

We have been live with alert framework for some time, but we recently noticed we are not getting alerts when mapping fails within a BPM.
All other errors are being alerted to us properly. Is there something we need to configure differently for BPM?
Thanks in advance,
Michael

Hi,
Did you trigger alert from BPM ? Check the Alert sending step in the BPM.
This SAP note on ALert Trougbleshooting may help u-913858
Alerts triggered from BPM e.g- /people/michal.krawczyk2/blog/2005/03/13/alerts-with-variables-from-the-messages-payload-xi--updated
In the BPM, u can configure the Exception Branch for the Mapping. Whenever mapping exception occurs, you can trigger an alert

ForEach Block not working in BPM

Hi all,
I've developed a BP with a split mapping and ForEach block similar to the "MultipleFlightBookingCoordination" BP.
But whatever I place inside the ForEach block is not executed. Not even a simple container operation is executed.
I get no exceptions, no errors in process engine monitoring, everything looks fine.
The ForEach block is listed in the work item selection and in the graphical view it looks like the steps inside the block have been executed but that's definitely not the case.
Why is that??
Thanks in advance
Karsten

Correlations shouldn't be mandatory but correct usage is imp.
If forEach is used in multicast scenario, a proper correlation is required.
The correct use of forEach is when u have multiple receivers and u r receiving data from multiple send step. Then a Receiver Determination step collects the list of receivers (in a multiline container). Now the forEach block gets executed for each receiver from the list.

Prateek

Fork is not working - BPM

I have done 2 samples using fork and in both the cases it is not working. For each message new BPM is triggered and only one step (branch) gets completed and other branch steps remain in ready state forever.
1) I have tested standard BPM pattern BpmPatternCollectMultiIf
2) Simple process using fork - two branches using different inetrfaces (having different message types)
Integration process return code is 0 - runtime cache
I am testing on local sandbox (XI 3.0) with SP17.
Under SAP help only brief description available about fork. Please share if you have good references/samples about fork (BPM).

Jai,
1)I expect following result in case of standard BPM pattern "BpmPatternCollectMultiIf"
Note: Here same message type for all 3 interfaces ( branches), no end condition, no of branches = 3
As all message types are same when I send first message only one branch will be executed and outbound status under sxmb_moni with be clock (Message being sent). When I send 2 message, second branch will be completed and status will be clock again. And when I send 3 rd message all branches will be completed and outbound status will be success flag (Message successful on outbound side). Under one process id three messages will be displayed
Actual result is every time status as clock. and for each message new fork instance is created. below are the processids for 3 messages
133721
133726 -
unexpected
133731 -
unexpected
Ideally when you send 3 messages all should be process under process ids 133721 to 133725
2) I have tried fork with 3 branches with different message types. When I send 3 messages ( here each payload is different as per message type ) I expect success flag after 3rd message. But in this case also always the status as clock. and every time new fork instance.
Is anybody successful to test BPM pattern -> BpmPatternCollectMultiIf?

EOIO is not working for file- BPM- Proxy scenario.

Hi All,
I have one File to BPM (Merge pattern ) to Proxy scenario.
I have two file communication channel at the sender side and defined QOS as EOIO for both. In SXMB_MONI it assings same queue for all messages.
BPM is merging that messages. However during that it assings different queue for merged messages.
When it comes to proxy , again different queues are assingned to the messages.
Is there any way I can define QOS in BPM or at the proxy side ( I know it should be at the sender side only , but it's not working..)
Thanks & Regards,
Dijesh Tanna.

HI,
Within the current release the BPM will always only use EO (SAP Note 833740).
May be the SAP note 905049 will help you on this ...
Thanks

BPM Not Working in PI

Hi,
We are in the process of upgrading our middleware from XI to PI. While testing scanarios using BPM we are runing into issues. We keep on getting the error.

From the error message it looks that the BPE process is not getting activated. But SXI_CACHE shows the process and the status is 0. Also we have checked the configurations using SWF_XI_CUSTOMIZING and everything looks fine.
Any thoughts.
Regards,
Arunava

But SXI_CACHE shows the process and the status is 0.
Sometimes even after the CACHE status is 0, the BPM can go into error.
1) Perform re-activation of the BPM in SXI_CACHE ..... a XML can be generated for your BPM in SXI_CACHE itself....check if this XML shows you all the IR objects (mappings and interfaces) which are there in the BPM.
2) Delete the errored instance from SWWL and then test
2) Make dummy changes to the ID objects and activate
3) If still it does not work then re-import the BPM into ID (i.e. recreate the ID objects)

Abhishek.

XI ALERTS with out BPM Are not working.

Hi All,
We are on XI 3.0 sp14. Alerts with out BPM are not working. I want to apply notes 906044, 876546. It says i need to make some changes to the following functions. I could not able to find these Function modules in the first place. Can some one help me out?

Ganges
Login into XI Developement and give SE37 Transaction. Then you give SXMS_ALERT_ERROR_RECEIVE and click 'display'.
Then you check for the methods CL_XI_ALERT HAS_ACTIVE_RULE, CL_XI_ALERT_UTIL GET_MDT_URL, CL_XI_ALERT CREATE_ALERT and make the changes according to service notes. If you dont find this methods in this function then you can try in SXMS_ALERT_ERROR_SEND.

BPM-Raise Exception does not work

I have designed the BPM in following way.
1. Receive step - Receive Asynchronous message
2. Defined the Block - DB
3. Send step 'A' to JDBC - inside the Block-'DB' - Acknowledgement-Transport, Exceptions System Error-DB, Receiver from-Send context.
4. Created an exception handler and Selected 'DB' as exception handler for the property of the exception handler branch.
5. Inserted the Send step-'B' to send mail inside the exception handler branch by using the MAIL receiver adapter.
We want send the message to update database by using JDBC adapter but if it fails to update database then we want send an e-mail to outlook.
But it looks like it is not working when it fails to update database.
Can someone please help me?
Thanks in advance!

Hi,
According to the SAP online help documentation for the receiver JDBC adapter:
<i>The receiver JDBC adapter supports system acknowledgments but not application acknowledgments.</i>
What you will need to do is either get a system error triggerred by the adapter (which basically throws up the red flag and tells XI that the message could ot be delivered successfully) , or get the application to trigger a fault message back to the adapter. I have not worked with the JDBC adapter, so I cant tell you in more detail.
Here are some links that I have been able to find that might help you...

BPM Worklist: Searching in custom views does not work for protected flexfields !

Hello,
Have mapped few protected attributes in my .task file. Also created the corresponding labels on target SOA server. I am able to create custom views using these protected flex fields.
But what I have observed is keyword based search is not working for custom views using protected fiexfields.. however it works fine with public fiexfields.
Any pointers on this? Am I missing something in the configuration?
Thanks..

Memory issues with Oracle BPM 10gR3 application

Hello,
We have been running the load test(100 concurrent users) on our web application that is developed using Oracle BPM 10gR3 and seeing stuck threads on rendering the workspace page in JSF API(method createAndMaybeStoreManagedBeans). I copied one of the stuck thread trace below. When we looked at the heap, it's full. GC also not releasing memory. From the analysis, I found that due to the lack of memory the requests are stuck. I also went through the forums and found that Oracle 10.3 workspace is a memory hogger.
Can anyone suggest me the recommendation settings for the workspace?
We don't have clusters setup yet and planning to setup one. Are there any limitations on the user load on workspace per node?
Please let me know if anyone had the same issue and resolved.
Overview of the application:
Most of the web application is running on global interactive activities with screen flows. The process instance size is small. The Engine and workspace are deployed on the same weblogic instance.

What is the difference btw Oracle bpm 10gr3 vs albpm 6.0.5 version

What is the difference btw Oracle bpm 10gr3 vs albpm 6.0.5 version
Are the build number common to them?

Projects built in ALBPM 6.0 can be used directly in Oracle BPM 10g, but the reverse is not true.
It's sometimes thought that Oracle BPM 10g was just a relabeling of the predecessor BEA product ALBPM. This is not the case.
In Studio, standards are better supported:
<li> By default, new processes now use horizontal swim-lanes. You can change the swim-lanes orientation individually for each process. You can define the default orientation for each project and for your Studio installation.
<li> It uses more sophisticated BPMN icons. BPMN is the new default process diagram theme. BPMN constructs now include Gateways (AND, OR (new in 10g), XOR, Multiple Instance (previously Split-N)). A new Timer event was added. Loop conditions for automatic activities and groups were added.
<li> Studio now supports Mac/OS 10.4 Tiger and Mac/OS 10.5 Leopard.
<li> Studio now supports Windows Vista.
<li> Studio now supports CVS and Subversion version control systems.
<li> The Studio UI incorporates Eclipse 3.3 improvements such as the following:
<li> New Minimize/Maximize behavior: When minizing view stacks in Studio, the view icons are placed on the nearest trim area. If a view is maximized, all other views are minimized, rather than hidden.
<li> Interactive tasks provide a new "previewable" property. The new Application Display Panel and Task Execution Panel of WorkSpace automatically start the execution of previewable tasks without locking the process instance. Enabled by default for Dashboards.
<li> New type of Activity: Time Activity. A process instance that arrives to this activity just sits idle until a timed event occurs.
<li> Option Process Notification Immediately on Termination Wait activities has been deprecated. Now both the Wait activity and the first activity in the interruption flow always execute in the same transaction.
<li> Although I'm not wild about it, there is an auto-layout feature re-arranges all visual elements of a process diagram automatically, minimizing superpositions and aligning the flow as much as possible. Only available for processes with horizontal lane orientation.
<li> New process property (Greedy Execution Mode) indicates the Process Execution Engine to collapse contiguous automatic tasks in a single transaction. This mode of execution provides better performance for some processes. Disabled by default.
<li> A new Process-Level debugger allows developers to introduce breakpoints and debug complete processes running in Studio. When the execution reaches a breakpoint, the Engine pauses and Studio's debugging view appears. You can inspect variables, add new breakpoints, resume and continue execution.
User Interface
<li> The Business Analyst and Business Architect profiles provide a simpler set of menu options and toolbars.
<li> New editor for BPM Object Presentations. It's easier to use, provides a WYSIWYG drag and drop interface, improved CSS support and a new Drag & Drop toolbar.
<li> You can now interrupt a running Simulation started with the Run to the End button.
<li> New BETWEEN operator added to Business Rules editor (on both Studio and WorkSpace). This operator works with Time and numeric types.
<li> The Documentation View now displays read-only documentation for the standard Fuego.* components.
<li> New on-line help book Oracle BPM Components Reference provides reference documentation for the standard Fuego.* components. Only available for the developer profile.
<li> This version introduces Project Dependency, which allows you to re-use components and role definitions from a common base project.
In the WorkSpace:
<li> WorkSpace has an edit mode which allows users to change and save the configuration and layout of panels.
<li> A new tabbed interface allows you to define multiple pages, each with its own set of panels. You can export the layout configuration to an XML file and re-import it on a different environment or as a different user. Administrators can define layouts for all users in a certain Role.
<li> You can export the data in the Worklist panel to a PDF or CSV
<li> You can see an OOTB chart representation of the distribution of items in the Worklist panel.
<li> WorkSpace includes the following new panels: Task Panel: Renders the execution of interactive tasks within the panel, instead of using the default modal dialogs. Dashboard Display Panel: Provides a way to display Dashboards within a Panel. View Chart Panel: Provides predefined graphical reports about process performance, work items distributions and workload. Application Panel: This panel contains an application (the execution of a Global Interactive). Applications can respond to work item selections or run independently.
<li> The user can now do re-assignment operations on multiple instances at once.
<li> The Business Rules editor shows additional auditing information, including who and when a rule was modified.
<li> WorkSpace now (optionally) stores session-specific information as client-side cookies. This allows load-balancing on a cluster environment without affecting the user experience.
Integration:
<li> New timeout property added to external resources of type HTTP Server. Use this setting to control timeouts on web service invocations.
<li> Authentication information added to external resources of type JMS (Java Messaging System)
<li> Processes exposed as Web Services can now provide a runProcess operation, which synchronously executes the complete process (from begin to end). Only meaningful on fully automated processes.
Enterprise:
<li> New Ant tasks to rebuild the Oracle BPM web applications for container-security.
<li> Configuration Wizard adds option Generic JNDI to the list of available LDAP servers. When using this option, you must provide a custom configuration file defining the mapping of object classes, attributes and filters. This new feature is also the new mechanism for integrating with AquaLogic Interaction 6.5, replacing the old Identity Service.
<li> Configuration Wizard can now be run without user interaction ("silent mode"). You specify all configuration values in an XML file.
<li> Oracle BPM client applications (including WorkSpace, PAPI-WS and custom PAPI apps) are now able to connect to multiple environments (BPM Directories) simultaneously.
<li> Added Sybase as a new provider for the Engine database and BPM Directory database.
<li> More information added for auditing of Business Rules, including who and when a rule was modified.
<li> Updated bundled JDBC drivers to their latest version.
<li> The Engine now logs warning messages when it detects rogue threads. A new preference allows the administrator to disable automatic re-starts when the Maximum Number of Rogue Component Executions is reached. In addition, in the case of an automatic re-start the Engine now logs a complete thread dump.
<li> Simplified procedures for deploying BPM WorkSpace on WebLogic Portal. BPM Process Administrator now generates the WorkSpace EAR file as a WLP library module.
<li> Authentication information added to external resources of type JMS (Java Messaging System).

Email activity not working on Clients site

Hi,
I created a Bpel process that contains an email activity, It works fine when I am connected to the Oracle network through VPN and while i am in the Oracle office.
But when I am at the clients site or connected through VPN, it doesnt work at all.
when I configure my ns_emails.xml to Oracle's info, it works fine but when its configured to clients info, it doesnt work.
I have configured ns_emails.xml and wf_config.xml
This is my ns_emails.xml when I am at the clients site._
note:_ Since I am not using the Default domain for deployment, I changed the <Name> under <EmailAccount> to cdmsd since I am deploying my Bpel processes to the cdmsd domain.
^<EmailAccounts xmlns="http://xmlns.oracle.com/ias/pcbpel/NotificationService"^

^ NotificationMode="EMAIL">^

^ </IncomingServerSettings>^
^ </EmailAccount>^
^</EmailAccounts>^
and for wf_config.xml I only add one line_
^<property name="oracle.bpel.services.notification.publisher_interval" value="1" />^
I dont understand why its not working while I am on the clients site ?? any ideas ??
could it be a network issue on their side ??

I pinged my email server and I got the following:
{size:12pt}
Packets: Sent = 4, Received = 4, Lost = 0 (0% loss),{size}
