Task execution based on hierachy Level

Hello Guys,
I have a hierarchy with 2 Levels (L1 & L2; L2 is a subnode belonging to L1) and I want to oblige the users to execute the consolidation monitor task only based on Level 1,
what is the best solution into EC-CS? A validation, authorisation settings, others...
thank you in advance for your help
Best regards
Pascal

I need to execute a reclassification task with the consolidation group update:
Let say that my hierarchy looks as follow:
Top node (Level 1)
     Country FR (Level 2)
          Entity 1
          Entity 2
     Country others (Level 2)
          Entity 3
I need to apply 2 reclassifications: one for French entities (recorded onto the "Country FR node and canceled on the Top node) another for all the entities (recorded onto the "Top node").
To do so I want to make sure that the task will always be executed from the top Node Level (Level 1).
Do you have any solution for me ?
thank you in advance

Task executions in multi server environment

Hi All,
I have a question regarding the task execution in a multi-server environment.
Below is the scenario:
We have two SIM applications: one for intranet users (employees and contractors) and one for extranet users (customers). Both these applications point to same database repository.
Intranet : idm-intra.ear ( this is deployed on IntraServer1 and IntraServer2)
Extranet: idm-extra.ear ( this is deployed on ExtraServer1 and ExtraServer2)
And both share same repository WAVESET.
Now we are deploying some request workflows for intranet users. In our case even the extranet application can see these tasks.
My question is: if I triggered a request workflow from intranet application and it is pending for approval and when it times out, is there a chance that this workflow is executed by the "extranet" application?
Thanks,
kIDMan.

The answer to your question is yes. If you go to the Configure>>Server tab in the admin console on any of these instances of IdM you should see all four instances. An easy way to test this is happening, is to enable workflow tracing and launch a couple of request from IntraServer1. IdM will try to distribute the work among all the servers it knows about so you'll see portions of the flow within the workflow traces on the individual servers. Well maybe it's not an easy thing to test because it's a timing issue.......
I had an issue recently in which the guy doing the build to the QA environment messed up and pointed the QA IdM instances to the DEV repository. We were doing some testing of some flows on DEV and they were being executed on the QA IdM instances and bombing out with ClassNotFound errors because the QA environment was not build out completely/correctly. So even though the requests were being launched from the DEV instances they were being executed on the QA instances.
There is a feature that is supposed to let you restrict which workflows run on which servers. If you go to the admin console and click on Configure>>Servers choose a server and click on the 'Scheduler' tab and then check the 'Task Restrictions' checkbox. From here you can restrict which workflows run on which servers. But my suspicion is that this doesn't work correctly (based on some testing I was doing on 7.1)....might want to test it out....Hope this helps.

Process tasks execution flow

Hi,
* When a provisioning process starts, the first one is System Validation.
* Next, all un-conditional tasks run.
* Tasks can trigger additional tasks based on the mapping with the response code and these tasks run.
I wanted to get clarified whether preceding and depedent tasks will tell us which tasks have to run prior to running the current or will they also add the list of tasks in the execution flow ??
Thanks,
Durgaprasad

Hi,
Yes, you can define the order of process task execution using preceding and dependent tasks. These tsk will be executed after the System Validation task is completed. And these task should be unconditional, preceding-dependent task tab does not work for conditional tasks.
For example:
You can have Create user task as a unconditional task and another Send mail notification to the user. Add this send mail notification task as a dependent task of the create user task. So when Create User task completed successfully , send mail notification task will be triggered. This is just for example, you can define task as per your requirement.
Thanks,

Creation an ADF Task Flow Based on a Human Task

Hello!
While creating ADF Task Flow Based on a Human Task, I can't bind New TaskFlow to task, which I choose in Dialog.
Details:
I Have:
BPM Project with PackageCreation.task
ADF Project in Same Application
I do:
1. in Application Navigator right click on ADF Project -> New -> Web Tier -> JSF -> ADF Task Flow Based on a Human Task
in creation Dialog I choose PackageCreation.task and Don't change name of New TaskFlow (automatically JDeveloper set this name to PackageCreation_TaskFlow)
I have After that:
new ADF Task Flow and my old PackageCreation.task.
Question:
Why my Task don't bind to created ADF task Flow based on it?
I think, that while creating ADF Task Flow Based on a Human Task it has to change my task, writing some thing like This (inside xml):
<taskFlowFileLocation>file:/D:/JDeveloper/mywork/SalesQuoteLab/EnterQuoteUILab/public_html/WEB-INF/EnterQuoteDetails_TaskFlow.xml</taskFlowFileLocation>
That xml element is creating in xml of *.task, while making auto-generation form for human task in BPM Project.

Juan C,
I use JDeveloper 11g Release 1.
May be I didn't explained my question correctly.
taskdetails1 is creating, and in Data Controls I have objects of my BPM Human Task Payload.
But in that file "PackageCreation.task" in source I can't find any link to instantly created TaskFlow.xml in my UI project.
So, I have
NEW project "PackageCreationUI" with PackageCreation_TaskFlow.xml in it (and TaskDetails1 file too).
AND Did't Changed PackageCreation.task in BPM Project.
If I use *"BPM form creation wizard"*, after creating project and TaskFlow in it I see Changes in PackageCreation.task in BPM Project, something like that:
<taskFlowFileLocation>file:/C:/JDeveloper/mywork/testApp/PackageCreationUI/public_html/WEB-INF/PackageCreation_TaskFlow.xml</taskFlowFileLocation>

Task Flow based on Human Task

Hi,
I have created a Task Flow based on Human Task in the Ui project. The task flow is auto -generated with the taskdetails.jspx as the default activity. If I try to include a ExceuteWithParams method in the task flow as the default activity the page gives a 500 Error in the workliist application.
Can I no have a method activity as the default activity in this task flow.
Thanks
Soumya

Are you trying to set "Create with parameters" as default task flow activity ? in that case open the the task flow diagram , right click "Create with parameters" data control -> Mark Activity -> Default Activity.

Why : Data Control entry not expandable/empty - ADF Task flow based on HT.

Hi All,
I've hoping to create an ADF Task flow based on a human task. I have a stand alone ADF application within the ViewController of which I am attempting to create this task flow. The resultant data control entry doesn't seem to be expandable.
Questions
1. When creating an ADF Taskflow based on a human task, should it always be within a project in the same application as the SOA components?
2. If no, is the resultant human task data control empty or not expandable because the xsd for the HT is based on the MDS? I have configured all the MDS connections within my application.
JDev : 11.1.1.4
Thanks
PP

Hi,
Answers :-
1. No, it is not necessary that your ADF Taskflow based on Human Task should be in the same application where the SOA Project Resides. But for the deployment of that ADF Taskflow you will need the SOA Project.You can add that project whenever you want to deploy.
2. It might be the cause due to the MDS Configuration .
Do one thing , while creating the ADF Taskflow based on Human Task , you do select the .task file via the file system not from the MDS.
If you will select the .Task file of your soa project then it will ask you to name the Taskflow, just name the taskflow as you want and say ok.
After creating the taskflow, it will add a lot of xml files in your project and it will create a data control of it.
Hope it helps!!

Update an ADF Task Flow based on Human Task

Hello friends,
I'm working on Oracle BPM Suite 11g. So, I created a process including its human tasks. Later, I created a Task Flow based in the human task that I setup before. Now I added a new parameter to the human task and I need to update the task flow because (of course) it only contains the payload of the previous configuration.
Can I do that? What can be the solution?
Regards....
AYVR

It's covered in docs here: http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E17904_01/integration.1111/e10224/bp_designtf.htm#BDCDFBCB
Note that this only updates the control. You'll have to now drag those new payload properties onto the form. If you had removed any properties you'd need to remove those from the form.
You should also do a refresh of the window that contains the data controls. Sometimes that's necessary to see the changes.

Displaying themes based on Zoom levels in base map

I am using Oracle AS MapViewer 10131.I have 3 themes added to a base map.
I am using Oracle Mapbuilder to create Mapping metadata.I want to display the 3rd theme based on the zoom levels.I want to display it only at lower zoom levels.I have followed necessary instructions given in the Mapviwer user guide and mapbuilder help.
But I am not able to display particular theme based on Zoom levels.
For example I have min/max scale 70,000/0 for Streets theme set using mapbuilder.This theme should be displayed only at that scale.But I am getting this theme displayed at all min/max scales (zoom levels).While creating the Map Cache Instance given the min/max scales 1000/25000000, the default values.Here the scale values look contradictory to the theme scale values given in mapbuilder.Is this where I am going wrong? or while setting scale for themes?
I hope you understand my problem.Please help me about this.this is urgent.
Thanks in advance!!

My problem is solved now.I am able to display themes on zoom levels.The solution is, I set the min/max scale (zoom levels) in Map Cache Instance as "Ratio" and in theme i set it to "Screen-Inch".The scale of theme is not understood by the map cache instance.So finally i set both the scales to "Ratio" and it is working fine as i expected.
Anyway thanks for yout interest in helping me.I will surely make a post here if i got stuck in further work.

BCS Task execution tracking

Hello experts,
I have a question regarding tracking task execution in BI-BCS.
My client has a large structure of more than 100 companies. They all use BCS solution on BI7 to load data, perform reclassifications, validations, balance carry forward, sign-offs, etc... during each reporting cycle.
As time during reporting cycles is crucial, the Group reporting team would like know the progress - they would like to track how many companies executed each task:
- how many loaded data,
- how many run reclasses, etc...
Does BCS have any mechanism to provide these statictics? If not, maybe it's possible to build report (either BEx or ABAP program), but where the tasks statuses are stored? Any idea what's the table name where status of each item from task hierarchy is stored?
Kind regards,
Roman

Hi Eugene,
Many thanks for your reply!
Yes, every company enters its own data, runs tasks through Consolidation monitor. And the status of each task is displayed for this particular company.
However, as a Group controller, I would like to see the summarized progress report from all companies. Example - let's assume we have 108 companies in total. The report should show number of companies that executed each task:
Tasks:   |   Company count
|----
Task 1   |   90
Task 2   |   40
Task 3   |   39
or precentages (eg. 80% of companies executed task 1, 35% executed task 2...)
or another way - BEx report with drilldown by company code per each task:
Tasks:   |   Company
|----
Task 1   |   3001
             |   3003
             |   3014
             |   3015
             |   3020
Task 1   |   3001
             |   3014
             |   3015
Task 3   |   3001
or anything else that would summarize where are we in terms of data preparation in current reporting cycle.
Any ideas?

How to create Discussions Task Flow Based on Oracle Content Server

Hi,
I need to create an ADF application consisting of the following aspects:
1) Upload, Download and Share documents (I'm using Documents Services provided by WebCenter Jdeveloper Extensions)
2) Create discussion threads and forums (I'm trying to use Discussion Services provided by WebCenter Jdeveloper Extensions)
3) User should be able to do an universal search i.e search both documents and discussions forums. (I'm using Search Services provided by WebCenter Jdeveloper Extensions)
I'm using "Oracle Content Server 10g for WebCenter" to manage my documents and discussions. While logging into GUI of OCS, I'm able to create and post discussion threads.
But, I'm unable to create discussions adf task flow based on Oracle Content Server.
The demos/tutorials/dev guides provided at http://webcenter.oracle.com have only described using WLS_Services managed server which is created and setup using WC Suite 11g.
But I couldn't find any information to develop these discussion services using Jdeveloper WebCenter Extensions and Oracle Content Server.
Please let me know, if anyone has tried this or if you have any idea of how to go about it.
Thanks in Advance,
Harikiran.

How to define primary interaction based on hierarchy level

I have a 3 level product dimension, such as brand, product type, and product. Now I want to define primary interaction based on the level. If click on brand or product type, it will be drill down. If click on product, it will be send master-detail. Since there is only one column for this dimension on the report when report is constructed, how can I apply different interaction based on the product level?
Thanks

iif you are trying to do a normal hierarchical drill down from brand down to product type down to product, and if they are defined so in your database, defining a normal hierarchy is suffice.
iif you are trying to navigate to a different level in a hierarchy, do a pre-defined drill down.
all the above options must be defiend in RPD.
if your Q is not answered can you please elaborate further with the existing example.

Configuring "auto" revoke of BPM task execution

Hi All,
I need to implement something to do an "auto" revoke of a task when the user exit from "task execution" view without using revoke+close button.
Someone can help me?
Thanks in advance.
Edited by: g.agnelli on Apr 11, 2011 2:41 PM

Hi,
unfortunately this is not possible today. However it is planned to extend the API in future releases, so that you could programmatically call a revoke method. But again, this is not available in the current release.

Making task execution a reality, in real-time, for critical industries

Problem
Enterprise software systems like ERP identify what needs to be done, but fail to outline how these tasks should be executed, due in large part to operational processes which are typically locked in disparate procedural documents, forms and excel spreadsheets. This approach limits the visibility into internal operations, enhancement of management by exception, and predictive analytics.
In all of industries Mobideo targets, processes are managed traditionally with ERP software where the tasks performed are manually documented, a process which is error prone and time consuming. In the Aerospace and Defense industry for example, the Federal Aviation Administration concluded that documentation is the leading contributing factor to maintenance mishaps. These errors are specifically attributed to:
Failure to follow published technical data or local instructions
Using an unauthorized procedure not referenced in the technical data
Supervisory personnel accepting non-use of technical data or failure to follow maintenance instructions.
Solution
Mobideo’s unique solution gathers granular data to capture what is happening in an operational environment in real-time, thereby optimizing performance, cost, and compliance of operational processes. It does this by uploading the smallest of business elements in the formats they are found and converting them to a mobile application. Using SAP HANA, the platform enables visibility by creating personalized applications that guide users through each job task in a step-by-step checklist. This framework ensures quality in tough working environments and confirms execution of tasks at the point of service. Core Competencies
Mobideo converges all task execution data into a unified application
Mobideo ensures compliance
Mobideo tracks granular interaction and data entry in real time
Mobideo enables rapid deployment driven from the procedures themselves

Categories based on the level of expertise / experience

UPDATE
*From now on I will not follow the posts in this topic. My last message can be found Re: categories based on the level of expertise / experience*
Franky
Hello,
I think the best would be to make categories in the forum based on the level of expertise / experience . As I can see the overall quality of the forum has decreased ... a lot.
I don't know why OPs think that volunteers are here :
- to answer non correctly interpreted questions,
- to give instant answers,
- to read the docs for them,
- to be mentalists,
- to be psychologists,
- etc...
My suggestion is to create 3 categories:
- novice (no certification & small amount of reward points)
- intermediate (OCA || no certification & medium amount of reward points)
- guru (OCM || OCP || OCA & medium amount of reward points || no certification & high amount of reward points)
(The OCM of course could be in the 4th category, but without having that many OCMs around I doubt that it would be useful.)
Lower level accounts could only read the higher level threads, higher level accounts could write to lower level threads. If a higher level OP doesn't want to physically see lower level threads, then he / she could setup this in his / her profile.
I hope that my sentences will not provoke anyone here. I've always said that "if something bothers me then I will try to change it, if I cannot then I let it be".
Franky
P.S. : I would be glad to see some tips from others as well.
P.S.2 : No flame please!
P.S.3. : SPOILER(!) In case everything fails then I will be looking for another community. So, if there are Oracle - dba - forums with community members having an average of 5-10 or more years of experience , then please don't hesitate to write the urls of these in your reply... Thanks.
Edited by: Franky on Aug 13, 2009 1:51 AM - extended

Hello Nicolas,
I think you're missing the point here: I didn't say that OCPs are "that good" or people having no certification are " that bad". No, this would be silly.
Your definition of novice is wrong, there are very knowledge people without certification (who told you a certified guy is a good DBA ?) and with very few "reward points" over here (who told you a "zero-point" guy is a bad DBA ?).
Novice on the forum would mean - no certification, no reward points = NO FEEDBACK !!!!!
Intermediate, guru on the forum would mean - certification or reward points = FEEDBACK !!!!
A community cannot rely on personal impressions like "I know that he is a good dba!" In this system everyone had to earn the status regardless of his/her job title. The community must have background information before setting the right level. If you have any tip how to setup categories, then feel free the share your thoughts.
+Same for intermediate or guru, this is a non-sense definition. I know many OCP DBA who are really novice, and again, point system here is just ridiculous.+
What do you think what would happen to those who have OCA or OCP and cannot answer anythig on their level? I will tell you - nothing. They will continue to reply to lower level threads. That's all. I don't think they would open questions on their level either, becuase it would be too embarrassing...
What is the value of 10 points taken when given a doc link ?
Why are you asking me about this? The OP should decide whether the link "worths" 10 points or not. By the way I don't think that OCPs or OCMs would ask such questions....
Well, I'm sure your thread is an open door to discuss on 1) point system on forum (again and again) 2) the value of certification (which have never meant you're a guru).
Ok, I see that the word "guru" is a splinter in your eyes. Feel free to rename it! :-) The value of the certification depends on how much effort has been put into it. If one does it by clicking here and there and everywhere and somehow it's enough to pass the exam - then I agree. If one learns, not only by reading the docs, but by working full time with Oracle itself, then I disagree.
Franky
P.S.: Once again I hope that this is going to be a proactive thread with many good thoughts. Words like "non-sense" or "ridiculous" let me believe that I'm just waisting my time here....

IAPI Task Execution Class

Hi,
I am trying to figure how the IAPI Task Execution works when you schedule a job of this task type.
While creating a schedule task of this task type you need to specify the IapiTaskIfc Class which looks like a custom class. How exactly do we go about creating this class and in a current application where can I find the source code for this class?
Thank You,
Patricia

Hi Patricia -
IAPI Scheduled Tasks are customized Java classes (deployed via a custom JAR file with E-Sourcing) that can execute on a schedule or one-time. In some cases, SAP customizations such as the contract attachment loader are developed using this technique. In fact, use of the IAPI scheduled tasks can often times be a convenient way to integrate custom code for either one-time or ongoing integration or data upload tasks.
Developing IAPI scheduled tasks is not something that can be done easily since E-Sourcing does not come with a built in development environment as other SAP applications do. In fact, I don't believe there is any way to develop and IAPI scheduled task if you are using a hosted version of E-Sourcing since there is no way for you to create the Java classes and compile them against the E-Sourcing classes, which is required since an IAPI scheduled task must implement a Java interface (IapiTaskIfc) that is shipped with E-Sourcing.
If you are using E-Sourcing on-premise it may be possible to develop, compile, and deploy a custom JAR file that implements the interface and can be configured in the IAPI scheduled task area. That being said, I don't believe that any instructions for doing so are provided with E-Sourcing.
If you have a specific problem you are trying to address, there might be alternatives using E-Sourcing Script Definitions which are much easier to build and integrate. If you believe you require use of the IAPI scheduled task capability, I would advise working with SAP to have the scheduled task built for you.
I hope this information is helpful.
Regards,
Rob
