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....

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.

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.

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>

ADF Task Flow based on HumanTask - Region withiin Task form

Hello All,
Was wondering if anybody here has sucessfully used region in their human task forms? I really like the idea of regions and after going through the tutorial here* I tired to implement it.
Following are some additional details of the issue I'm facing.
I have created a UI project based on a human task. The main <human task>_taskFlow.xml is bounded and non-fragmented. I then dropped 'view' component within this task flow and create a blank jspx page underneath. I then dragged and droped another bounded and fragmented task flow (which is also a train) on to this jspx page. The 2nd task flow has some jsff pages in a train. When I deploy run this bpm project,I can't see train form within the region and I get following Null Pointer Exception on the server:
java.lang.NullPointerException
     at oracle.adfinternal.view.faces.renderkit.rich.FormRenderer.encodeAll(FormRenderer.java:233)
     at oracle.adf.view.rich.render.RichRenderer.encodeAll(RichRenderer.java:1396)

     at javax.faces.component.UIComponent.encodeAll(UIComponent.java:937)
Any help would be much appreciated.

Update: After struggling with it almost whole day, I recreated the UI project and the problem has gone away.

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!!

Shah

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.

Bounded task flow task-flow-return to unbounded task flow throws 404

I'm using an unbounded task flow (adfc-config.xml) to call a bounded task flow (task-flow-definition). All navigation in the bounded task flow works well, data is committing. (I am omitting many of the pages from the bounded task flow to keep this post shorter. If I can get this first page to return to the unbounded task flow, I can copy it forward.)
My problem is when running from the unbounded task flow, I cannot seem to configure the bounded task flow to return to the login page inside the unbounded task flow, which called it, without a 404 error.
Unbounded task flow:

Is the task-flow-return the ONLY way to pass values from the bounded to the unbounded task flow?
Or is it possible to use a control-flow-case inside the bounded task flow like this, that refers to the unbounded task flow to navigate from the bounded back to the unbounded task flow?
<adfc-config xmlns="http://xmlns.oracle.com/adf/controller" version="1.2">
<task-flow-definition id="task-flow-definition">
<task-flow-call id="adfc">
<task-flow-reference>

</task-flow-call>

<from-outcome id="__44">logout</from-outcome>
<to-activity-id id="__45">adfc</to-activity-id>

I've tried every conceivable way to navigate from the bounded task flow, to the unbounded task flow, and the only consistent thing I receive is a 404. Is this a security issue?

Communicate from one bounded task flow to another bounded task flow

Hi All can someone let me know how to communicate from one bounded task flow to another bounded task flow.

Hi,
you use contextual events to communicate from one region to another. Have a look here:

Calling a bounded task flow from an unbounded task flow

How can I navigate from an unbounded task flow to a bounded task flow....
My situation is as follows:
In the adfc-config.xml, I have a view activity ADMhome, Wildcard as well as a task-flow-call, admTaskFlow. A control flow goes from the wildcard to ADMhome while another control flow goes from the wildcard to task-flow-call.
I have a bounded task-flow "adm-task-flow" with two view actitivies: AdmListView and AdmPageView with AdmListView as the default activity. A Control flow goes from the AdmListView to AdmPageView, all pointing the page fragments
I created another page ADMregion which is a (jsf) where I dragged the adm-task-flow onto.
When I ran the application, the home page displayed properly but when I clicked on a command button to invoke the "adm-task-flow", the application will not responded.
When I looked at the log message, It gave this message:
<TaskFlowCallXmlImpl> <parse> ADFc: /WEB-INF/adfc-config.xml:
<TaskFlowCallXmlImpl> <parse> ADFc: Failed to parse element 'task-flow-reference'.
<ActivityXmlImpl> <parse> ADFc: /WEB-INF/adfc-config.xml:
<ActivityXmlImpl> <parse> ADFc: Activity metadata could not be parsed. [Activity Type, ID] = ['task-flow-call', ' admTaskFlow '].

Thanks for this clarifications...
I created a view activity in the adfc-config-xml and called the page (ADMregion) where the task flow was embedded. It worked well..
Another clarification I want is this, when do I use a task flow call to call a task flow? My thinking and my understanding was that when you create a task flow, you use a task flow call to invoke the task flow.
Pls another aspect I want you to guide me is on calling a java class from jsf and jsff pages. Being new in these technologies, I have having some difficulties navigating and putting all of them together. My problem is this:
I created a java class under the view package of Application Sources in the View Controller of my Application. The java class returns a value. I designed a jsff form with input fields and and command buttons. I want when I clicked on a command button to take a parameter from the input field and pass it to the java class, the after processing, the java class returns a value which I will place inside one of the input fields in my jsff form.

Possible to use menuBar with task flow based ADF menus?

Hello -
I've just worked through the " [Create ADF Menus for Page Navigation|http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/jdev/11/cuecards111/adf_set_43/ccset43_ALL.html] " tutorial. It shows how to create menus based on your task flows.
My question: is it possible to use the af:menuBar with these menu models (instead of navigationPanes or breadcrumbs) ?
I am using JDev 11g 11.1.1.1.0
Thanks.
Edited by: scott.turnquist on Nov 5, 2009 12:07 PM

Hi,
The XML menu model extends the Trinidad TreeModel, which extends Collection model. This allows you to access the hierarchical menu structure so that you can use af:iterator to build a structure to display in a af:menuBar

How to set all required components false in ADF form based on human task?

Hi All,
I'm looking to implement an ADF form based on a human task. There are 2 outputs, Validate and Reject.
On clicking Validate, my form does as expected, evaluates everything that is mandatory and expects these inputs in order to proceed.
However, on reject, my form should overlook anything that's marked as mandatory. How do I go about making the "required" aspects of my form false so that no entries are required in order for me to reject the form.
JDev - 11g.
Any inputs will be appreciated.
Thanks,
Preethi.

Thank you Timo.
This doesn't seem to bypass any of the mandatory components . It still prompts for an entry for those fields. do I need to change the partial submit or any other property?

Filter database lookup based on human task (BPM 11g)

Using BPM/SOA 11g PS3
I have a business case where a field is pulling data from an external table and the user would like to filter the return based on the current step in the flow. For example:
Database would return: A, B, C, D, E, F
Human task 1 should show: A, B, C
Human task 2: A, B, E, F
Human task 3: C, D, E
Human task 4: D, E, F
Human task 5: E, F
The BA would also like the ability to change this (if possible) without us having to redeploy. If I can avoid it, I don't want to hardcode these into the JSPX.
Thoughts on how best to implement something like this?

I was looking into using a business rule and using a decision table. I thought first, could I put the business rule in my task ADF...but then how do I know what task I am on, how do I pull that into my decision table?

Caused by: org.apache.commons.logging.LogConfigurationException: org.apache.commons.logging.LogConfigurationException: Invalid class loader hierarchy. You have more than one version of 'org.apache.commons.logging.Log' visible, which is not allowed. (Caused by org.apache.commons.logging.LogConfigurationException: Invalid class loader hierarchy.

I had to remove the commons logging library from the project and add this to the orion-application.xml

I don't use log4j , I just created a fusion webapp where I add taskflow based on a human task that's it.
If I remove the commons logging then deployment fails.
