Synchronize Process Flows

I need to synochronize few process flows using a OMB SCRIPT.
Can someone pls help me to get the OMBSYNOCHRONIZE command work for Process flows?
Do anyone know the Matching Strategy Values for Process flows? Couldn't get it working. The error i get
Eg.
OMBSYNCHRONIZE PROCESS_FLOW 'PF_GEO10' \
ACTIVITY 'IAR_BRDINT_DMIS_BRI_TIN1' \
TO PROCESS_FLOW 'PF_GEO10' ACTIVITY 'IAR_BRDINT_DMIS_BRI_TIN1' \
USE (SYNCHRONIZE_STRATEGY 'REPLACE', MATCHING_STRATEGY 'INBOUND_ACTIVITY_MATCH
BYOBJECT_UOID')
PUB01804: The matching strategy INBOUND_ACTIVITY_MATCH_BY_OBJECT_UOID specified
is invalid for the source oracle.owb.processflow.Activity and target oracle.owb.
processflow.Activity.

.... found solution, use 'MATCH_BY_UOID' instead of 'INBOUND_ACTIVITY_MATCH_BY_OBJECT_UOID'

How to get the package name of a procedure used in a process flow activity

Hi all. I'm on OWB 11.2.0.2.0.
When I used a packaged procedure or function in a mapping operator, I can find out the package.program_unit name by getting the operator's FUNCTION_NAME property. For example,
OMBRETRIEVE MAPPING '$mapName' OPERATOR '$operName' GET PROPERTIES (FUNCTION_NAME)
But when the same is used in a process flow activity, I can't find a property name that will give me the same information. I can get the BOUND_NAME, it does not tell me the package name. It must be stored in the activity properties because when you pull up the Synchronize dialog for the activity, it knows the package name.
Is there a way to get this via an OMBRETRIEVE?
Thanks.

ANA, this is exactly what I needed. Thank you so much. I saw REFs also in the OMBRETRIEVE MAPPING/OPERATOR syntax, but went cross-eyed trying to figure out if I could use the same there. The closest I found was GET BOUND_OBJECT.
Thanks again!

Sale process flow of SBO E-Commerce - What documents are created in SAP B1?

Dear All,
Can any one please confirm the sale process flow of SBO E-Commerce, when a customer submits an Sales Order and pays the amount online?
I am mainly interested to know about the documents, which are created in SAP B1 after the said Payment against the Order through the Web tools?

As I understand it, out of the box WebTools simply creates a B1 Sales Order from a WebTools order during the scheduled synchronization.
If you are accepting credit card payments and have configured a credit card gateway (Paypal, Skipjack, etc), then you can choose to authorise the payment only for capture later or capture the payment immediately at the time of order. Neither of these events creates any document in SAP B1. You process the order as normal and post a payment manually as part of your workflow.
If you have a credit card add-on (CitiXSys or similar) installed and specified in the WebTools Synch Manager, the normal SAP B1 processing of the Sales Order (creating a delivery document) will trigger the capture of a previously authorised credit card payment, creating and posting an A/R invoice and an associated payment document in B1.
Hope this helps you in your question.
Cheers,
Dave Bragg

Process flow hangs in state "bussy"

Hi,
We are encountering what seems to be a "random" problem when runing process flows. In about 1 out of 4 runs the flow "hangs" with status "busy"
The technical specs are as follows:
OWB 9.2.0.2.8 on WIN2K Server SP4.
There are two runtime repositories on two different WIN2K database servers (Oracle 9.2.0.4 EE)
The symptoms are as follows:
- We have more than 10 process flows containing from 15 to 60 processes. The problem is not related any single process flow, and occurs on both our target servers.
- The process flows runs OK in approximately 3 out of four runs.
- When the process flows "hangs", one or more of the processes in the process flow also hangs in the "busy" state. The hanging process can be a mapping or an external process
- The processes that have status "busy" have actually finished. They have a completion time set, and in the case where the process sends mail, the mail has been received. In the case of mappings I have verified that the mapping has completed, and that the session performing mapping has terminated.
- When the problem occurs, there is always the same "lock" pattern displaying in OEM:
Username Session IdLockMode HelMode Requ Object Name ROWID Object OwnObject T Resource ID1 Resource ID2
OWBRT92 17TM ROW SHARNONE WB_RT_SERVICE_QUEUE_TAB OWBRT92 TABLE 61161 0
OWBRT92 17UL EXCLUSIVNONE 1073741824 0
OWBRT92 48TM ROW SHARNONE WB_RT_NOTIFY_QUEUE_TAB OWBRT92 TABLE 61145 0
OWBRT92 67TM ROW EXCLNONE WB_RT_NOTIFICATION_COMPONENTS OWBRT92 TABLE 61137 0
OWBRT92 67TM ROW EXCLNONE WB_RT_NOTIFY_QUEUE_TAB OWBRT92 TABLE 61145 0
OWBRT92 67TM ROW EXCLNONE WB_RT_NOTIFICATION_ACKS OWBRT92 TABLE 61141 0
OWBRT92 67TM ROW SHARNONE WB_RT_NOTIFICATION_STREAMS OWBRT92 TABLE 61135 0
OWBRT92 67TM ROW EXCLNONE WB_RT_AUDIT_EXECUTIONS OWBRT92 TABLE 61199 0
OWBRT92 67TX EXCLUSIVNONE 262151 87564
Session 17 is the runtime service, and these two locks are present under normal operation. Session 48 is the Sqlplus session runing the execution template, and session 67 is (i think) the session that is causing the problem.
- The advanced queue WB_RT_NOTIFY_QUEUE tab shows "Number in state ready" equal to the number of processes still in the state "busy" i the process flow.
- When the runtime service is stoped (using the stop_service.sql) The locking sessions disappears.
- When the service is restarted, the processes change status to "bussy recovery" There is now a RPE-01008 and a RPE-01009 message in the "errors" section for the mapping.
- After the failed recovery, everything looks normal, except that there are now twice the number of messages in state READY on the WB_RT_NOTIFICATION_QUEUE. The only way I have found to get rid of these is to delete them from the queue table.
Is this a known problem? We are about to go live in a few weeks, and this could be a serious show stopper if we can't rely on the daily process flows to run as expected.
I could log a TAR on this, but I suspect support would ask for a test case, and Im going to have a hard time providing it for them in this case.

Jean-Pierre,
Thanks for the update. I was afraid this was going to be one of those "hard to pinpoint" issues...
When the problems occurs the Worflow Monitor always shows the task status as "Notified".
The "Main routine" is no longer executing. The session that was executing the mapping has disconnected, and the mapping has completed successfully. (I have verified this by checking the rows in the target tables). Also, the problem is not restricted to mappings. Sometimes it happens to "mail notifications", and in these cases the mail message is received as expected.
It looks to me like there is some kind of synchronization problem between AQ and the controlling process (the runtime access user session) that can arise under a given condition (which I unfortunately have not been able to determine what is). As far as I can tell, the process executing the mapping completes and puts the message that it has completed on the Notify_Queue (hence the messages in stat "Ready" on the queue), but for some reason the process waiting to read the message fails to do so.
As for a test case, I have recently sent an export of our design repository to Igor Machin. Is it possible for you to have a look at that? As I mentioned in the first post, our Process Flows are fairly complex. Some of the flows are executing 50+ mappings in parallel.

Mapping failure when executed in process flow

I am currently receiving the following error on one of my mappings when I executed a process flow:
TEST_PF: NEW_MAP
Error
ORA-06550: line 1, column 1003:
PLS-00306: wrong number or types of arguments in call to 'MAIN'
ORA-06550: line 1, column 997:
PL/SQL: Statement ignored
When I execute the process flow using the control center manager, it runs normally and I only receive this error when it runs within the process flow.
Any advice on what is causing this problem and how I can fix it? Is the process flow corrupted? If so, do I have to rebuild it?
Thank you

Hi,
Have you added any parameters or anything like that to your mapping from the first time you put it into the processflow?
In the processflow, select the mapping that fails and synchronize it, redeploy and try again. Or you can just delete the mapping from the process flow and add it again.
At least based on the errormessage you describe it seems like the mapping has been changed and have parameters added or removed from the first time you added it to your processflow.

Transformation in Process Flow

hi
I am using owb 11g and i am seeing some existing code which has been built by some one.
In Process Flow, i couldn't see any Procedure name and their parameters, Could you some one let me know where i can find those stuff in 11g.
thanks

In process flow, left click on the procedure you want to see (select it) and than go Edit--> Synchronize and you'll see where it is in repository.

URGENT: error during deployment of a process flow through OMB

I have a process flow which uses a mapping. The mapping has already been synchronized to its corresponding process flow activity.Now i again synchronize the activity with the same mapping to which it was already synchronized
OMB+> OMBSYNCHRONIZE PROCESS_FLOW 'MAIL_TRY/RND_MAIL' ACTIVITY 'EMP_COUNT' TO MAPPING '/NEW_PROJECT2/NEW_SOURCE/EMP_COUNT' USE (SYNCHRONIZE_STRATEGY 'REPLACE

now i create a deployment action plan and deploy the process flowand get the error as follows:
OMB+> OMBCREATE TRANSIENT DEPLOYMENT_ACTION_PLAN 'MAIL_TRY' ADD ACTION 'MAIL_TRY ' SET PROPERTIES (OPERATION) VALUES ('CREATE') SET REFERENCE PROCESS_FLOW_PACKAGE '/NEW_PROJECT2/MOD1/MAIL_TRY'

Please set the generation language property of this mapping, or generate this mapping to set the generation language property to a default value..
In order to remove that error i made the following alteration in the mapping property:
Context changed.
OMB+> OMBALTER MAPPING 'EMP_COUNT' SET PROPERTIES (GENERATION_LANGUAGE) VALUES ('PLSQL')
and then deployed the process folw only to get the following error:
OMB05602: An unknown Deployment error has occured for Object Type Trying to access invalid Object.
Element ID: 282901
Status: 4
Owning FCO: 282896
Thanks in advance!!!!!

A couple of things you could try are:
1 - OMBCOMPILE MAPPING 'EMP_COUNT' instead of doing the OMBALTER as this will ensure that the property is set correctly, just in case there's any problem there,
2 - "set OMBDEBUG on" before doing your OMBDEPLOY to display any additional stack traces.

URGENT:error while deploying a process flow

EMP_COUNT is a mapping which i have deployed .
when i try to deploy a process flow i get the following error:

Please set the generation language property of this mapping, or generate this mapping to set the generation language property to a default value..
thnx in advance

Fast enough? ;-)

Cannot deploy process flow package specification from file

Hi,
we are using owb 11gr2 on linux. We successfully managed to deploy mappings and tables into a specification file, and then deploy from that file into the target database (RAC). But when we try to deploy a process flow package we run into an error:
A process flow package can be deployed to a specification file. But a deployment from that specification file fails with the error: " OMB05623: Cannot deploy specification from file. Exception follows. nulll"

We get the error regardless whether the code is executed as an expert or on the command line at a windows client.
Does anyone knows a workaround?
Deployment via a specification file is a must due to license and architecture requirements.
Thanks,

Its woked fine for me for OWB 10.2.0.4 .... some steps are missing from code like
when you are connecting again it should be
OMBDISCONNECT
OMBCONNECT CONTROL_CENTER $CONN_TARGET_RT
OMBDISCONNECT
OMBCC '/KLINGEL_DWH'
OMBCONNECT CONTROL_CENTER $CONN_TARGET_RTI think you can try the same on different system .

A/R process flow with notice of readiness for shipment

Hi,
I'm trying to implement the following A/R process flow:
- sales order
- xx% A/R down payment invoice
- notice of readiness for shipment
- incoming payment
- delivery
- A/R invoice (xx% down payment to be deducted here)
What's the best way to implement it?
Thanks
Fabio

Hi,
no, it's something different. It is because we want to be paid before shipping anything.
In more detail:
- we request a certain amount of down payment after the order and before starting production
- we request final payment before we deliver goods
Thanks
Fabio

MM - PO process flow chart

MM Gurus , Can any one help me to provide me with the MM PO and Change PO process flow diagram .Pl send me the diagram or links to my email ID
Thanks in advance .Will give you points
James
[email protected]

Dear James,
Process Flow:
1)Determination of Requirements: Through MRP, purchase requisitions
2)Source Determination: helps you identify potential sources of supply, creating requests for quotation (RFQs
3) Vendor Selection and Comparison of Quotations: The system is capable of simulating pricing scenarios
4) Purchase Order Processing: information from the requisition and the quotation to help you create a purchase order. scheduling agreements and contracts are also supported.
5) Purchase Order Follow-Up: The system checks the reminder periods you have specified. up-to-date status of all purchase requisitions, quotations, and purchase orders.
6) Goods Receiving and Inventory Management: Goods Receiving personnel can confirm the receipt of goods simply by entering the Po number
7) Invoice Verification: The system supports the checking and matching of invoices, and clearing invoices for payment.
Flow Chart for PO & MM process :
RFQ (ME 41) --> Maintain Quotation ( ME 47) -> Price comparision ( ME 49)>
-->Create PR ( ME 51 N) --> Create PO ( ME 21N) --->
> Good Receipt wrt PO( MIGO)> Invoice Verification wrt PO ( MIRO)
I hope this will suffice your need & if satisfied please reward points,
Vivek

To check whether a process flow is valid or not

Hi,
I want to check whether a OWB process flow is valid or not inside a PL/SQL block. Can anyone let me know about any repository table or view where I can check the process flow status.
Regards,
Poulose

Use display schedule job option from the context menu of the start variant of the process chain.
When u chick this.. u will get the available job on this start process.. There u can see whether the process chain in schedule mode or not?
If u can see multiple schedule then u can delete the older ones which are not needed and then u can maintain only one schedule job.
If u click twice.. then there are chances that u might end up with the 2 schedule job with the same time frame.. .. so check the same with the steps mentioned..... if u find two jobs then u need to delete one.. if not there might be chance that ur PC might get trigger twice.. and one trigger will gets failed. and the other one will gets executed..
Thanks
I hope this is clear to u..
