Workspace manager view

Is there an easy out of the box solution for creating a "manager" view of tasks within Workspace?  The requirement is for a user to log in and search all tasks regardless of whether or not they interacted with that task (by default the search templates only show tasks which were assigned to you at some point).  I know you could share the individual queues but this gets cumbersome when a manager looks after a lot of employees.

You could also create a group for each user that also contains the manager. This could be done programatically. If the user claimed the task, it would no longer be in the queue. It would not prove any work was done. A flaky thing is even if the user's queue is shared to the manager, the manager will not be able to see the item in the user's queue after being claimed.
I solve the manager review requirement by calling a logging sub process between each step. It writes to a separate table. The Manager logs into a Flex dashboard to review the data and slice up multiple ways. Certain workflow steps may have multiple business process steps. For those, the user sets a status in a drop down before clicking complete. The process is routed to logging then back to the same user step unless the status has been set to the one that exits the loop.

  • Has Anyone used View Generator in Workspace Manager 10.2.0.3A

    It does not seem to show the dimensional attributes and all the pretty pictures in the blogs/forums seem to work!!!!
    Can you tell me if I am missing something?

    Hi,
    View Generator appears to be an OLAP product, which is distinct from Workspace Manager. I would recommend to use the following forum:

  • Triggers in Workspace Manager

    I've got some problems with the workspace manager and triggers in 10g:
    If you have a trigger defined on a table and you version this table, ORACLE will create 3 "instead of"-triggers on the view representing the table.
    The "content" of the trigger will be created in a wm$ procedure.
    My question is: How can I change my trigger without unversioning the table?
    As an example, consider the following two tables:
    -- Create Data Table
    CREATE TABLE MY_TABLE
         X_ID NUMBER(28) NOT NULL,
         V_TEXT VARCHAR2(200),
         V_COMMENT VARCHAR2(4000)
    -- The Table's PK
    ALTER TABLE MY_TABLE ADD CONSTRAINT PK_MY_TABLE
         PRIMARY KEY (X_ID)
    USING INDEX;
    -- Create Registry Table
    CREATE TABLE MY_REGISTRY_TABLE
         X_ID NUMBER(28) NOT NULL,
         V_OLD_TEXT VARCHAR2(200),
         V_OLD_COMMENT VARCHAR2(4000),
         V_NEW_TEXT VARCHAR2(200),
         V_NEW_COMMENT VARCHAR2(4000),
         D_WHEN DATE NOT NULL
    Now, we create a trigger that automatically registers the changes made on MY_TABLE:
    -- Create Trigger
    CREATE OR REPLACE TRIGGER TR_MY_TABLE
    AFTER INSERT OR UPDATE OR DELETE ON MY_TABLE
    FOR EACH ROW
    BEGIN
         INSERT INTO MY_REGISTRY_TABLE(
              X_ID
              ,V_OLD_TEXT
              ,V_OLD_COMMENT
              ,V_NEW_TEXT
              ,V_NEW_COMMENT
              ,D_WHEN
         VALUES (
              NVL(:old.X_ID, :new.X_ID)
              ,:old.V_TEXT
              ,:old.V_COMMENT
              ,:new.V_TEXT
              ,:new.V_COMMENT
              ,sysdate
    END TR_MY_TABLE;
    Now, we decide to version MY_TABLE.
    exec dbms_wm.enableversioning('MY_TABLE');
    This turns MY_TABLE into 2 data tables and a collection of views.
    The trigger has changed as well. The original trigger has disappeared, and there are 3 "INSTEAD OF"-triggers on the view MY_TABLE:
    OVM_Delete_102
    OVM_Insert_102
    OVM_Update_102
    These three triggers in the end call a system generated procedure:
    wm$proc_udt_187
    If I try to change this procedure, the system won't let me do that.
    So, my question is, how can I change my trigger on MY_TABLE without unversioning the table?

    Hi,
    The 3 instead of triggers are created regardless of whether the table contained a user defined trigger or not. They are primarily used to implement the DML, but are used for other things as well as you noted. To change the definition of the trigger, you would need to use the Workspace Manager DDL procedure. See section 1.8 of the user guide. Essentially, you execute dbms_wm.beginDDL on the table, update the trigger on the <table_name>LTS table that is created (the trigger will have the original name that you gave it), then execute dbmswm.commitDDL.

  • Creating a DWMQY DIMENSION using Analytic Workspace Manager

    Hi everyone,
    I need some help creating a "time aware" (DAY, WEEK, MONTH, QUARTER, and YEAR) dimension using Analytic Workspace Manager.
    Let me give you some background. I'm coming from a traditional "Oracle Express" OLAP background where all our data is stored in cubes and these are defined, populated and operated on using OLAP DML, there is no SQL or traditional relational tables involved.
    I now want to pull data from relational tables into some OLAP cubes and am using Analytic Workspace Manager to do this (maybe this is not the best way?)
    Let me explain what I'm trying to achieve. In OLAP worksheet I can type the following DML commands:
    DEFINE MY_DAY DIMENSION DAY
    MAINTAIN MY_DAY ADD TODAY '01JAN2011'
    What this will do is create a "day dimension" and will populate it with values for each and every day between 1st Jan 2011 and today. It will be fully "time aware" and thus you can use date functions such as DAYOF to limit the MY_DAY dimension to all the Fridays etc. Similarly if I define a "month dimension" there will be an automatic implicit relationship between these two dimensions, this relationship and time aware cleverness is built into Oracle.
    However, a dimension defined using DML commands (and indeed all objects created using DML language) is not visible in Analytic Workspace Manager (as there is no metadata for them?) and for the life of me I cannot work out how to create such a dimension using AWM. If I create a "Time Dimension" then, as far as I can tell, this is not a proper time dimension but merely a text dimension and I, presume, I have to teach it time awareness.
    Can anyone help me? I have no issues creating, and populating cubes from relational tables using Analytic Workspace Manager, the only issue I have is creating a "proper" time aware dimension.
    Many thanks in anticipation.
    Ian.

    When a dimension is of type "TIME" in AWM, then for each member of that dimension, you need END_DATE and TIMESPAN attributes in addition to the key column and description column.
    So in your case, if there are 5 levels: DAY->WEEK->MONTH->QTR->YEAR
    then you will need atleast 15 columns in your source sql table/view
    or 20 columns if you have separate column for description.
    For example the columns in your source table/view could be:
    DAY_ID,
    DAY_DESC,
    DAY_END_DATE, (which will be that day's date)
    DAY_TIMESPAN, (which will be 1)
    WEEK_ID,
    WEEK_DESC,
    WEEK_END_DATE,
    WEEK_TIMESPAN,
    MONTH_ID,
    MONTH_DESC,
    MONTH_END_DATE,
    MONTH_TIMESPAN,
    QTR_ID,
    QTR_DESC,
    QTR_END_DATE,
    QTR_TIMESPAN,
    YEAR_ID,
    YEAR_DESC,
    YEAR_END_DATE,
    YEAR_TIMESPAN
    Just "map" this table/view to the 5-level time dimension in AWM.
    NOTE that behind-the-scenes lot of useful structures are automatically defined to support time-series measures,
    and there are lot of calculation templates available also.
    Since you came from Express background, I have to say that try to use new OLAP Expression Syntax when creating calculated measures instead of OLAP DML.
    Its very rare these days that we need OLAP DML.

  • Analytic Workspace Manager Tutorial

    Greetings
    I haven't had any luck getting anyone to address this (posted in oracle by example and in Business Intelligence).... the "new" tutorial "Populating Your OLAP Analytic Workspace Using Analytic Workspace Manager" <http://www.oracle.com/technology/obe/obe10gdb/bidw/awm/awm.htm> has a bug on the javascript that loads all images (i.e., "eyeglass"). All other Oracle By Example tutorials pass in a "static" list of images to be loaded into the "MM__swapImage()" function (ref http://www.oracle.com/technology/obe/obe10gdb/bidw/odm/odm.htm) . This "new" tutorial however uses a function called "preLoadImages() in which an array is attempted to be built from the contents of "document.images" this property appears to be empty (perhaps some path issue getting all the images?) .... regardless there is nothing in this property and so subsequently nothing to "preload"... the end result of activating the "onmouseover" event is an "error on page" due to the "newImg.src" array being empty. Can anyone address this?
    After no action on my previous efforts I attempted to open a service request on Metalink and of course they sent me back to the forums here.... (suggesting "downloads" and "feedback" forums)

    Yes.... that "eyeglass" javascript is the issue....(you will have to do a "view source" on the page to see the javascript functions I'm talking about)....
    The "onmouseover" for this eyeglass icon works fine on all the other tutorials, but on this one I get no images, (did you try to download all the images via that javascript?) I get an "error on page" in which the javascript indicates that newImg.src is null..... "newImg.src" is the array where all of the images should be read into....via the function "preLoadImages()", combined with showAllImages(), and hideAllImages(), I'm suspecting that there is an issue with the relative directory on the website or some other path issue realated to the javascript "document" object....
    BTW the other tutorials (e.g., http://www.oracle.com/technology/obe/obe10gdb/bidw/odm/odm.htm) seem to use a different method.... instead of the "preLoadImages()" function they all seem to staticly pass all images into MM__swapImage() for this same "onmouseover" event

  • Workspace Manager and HTML DB

    Hi Folks,
    I was wondering if an HTML DB application can take advantage of
    Workspace Manager features, I mean, work with versions inside the database.
    The idea is, validate the user login and redirect it to an specific workspace ("version") of the database. Thus, I can control the data inserted by each application user, validated it and then promote it to the live database.
    TIA,
    Luis Paolini

    Hi,
    Yes you should be able to do this. The versioning of the table will be transparent to html db. When a table is versioned, the original table is renamed, and a view is created in its place with the original name. Any sql statements running against the original table, will also be able to be run against this new view.
    The creation, merging, refreshing, etc of workspaces would need be handled in the same way as any other pl/sql statement being executed by html db.
    You would also be able to create a logon trigger, which based on the user logging in, would be able to place the user in an appropriate workspace.
    Regards,
    Ben

    There are posts on the OLAP forum covering this problem. Anthony Waite from the OLAP Product Management team has provided the following information:
    e new, default Model View in AWM 10.1.0.4.0 is based upon the OLAP Analytic Workspace API (a.k.a. AW/XML). Just to recap and further clarify my earlier post, you must pass the following requirements in order to use it:
    1) Be sure to be using the Enterprise Edition of the Oracle Database 10g.
    SQL> select banner from v$version where banner like 'Oracle%';
    You should see Oracle Database 10g Enterprise Edition.
    2) Be sure to have the Data Warehouse database configuration or the OLAP Option enabled.
    SQL> select parameter, value from v$option where parameter='OLAP';
    You should see OLAP TRUE.
    3) Be sure that the RDBMS 10.1.0.4 patch set has been completely installed. Users often miss the required Post-Installation Steps such as running catpatch.sql.
    SQL> select comp_name, version, status from dba_registry;
    You should see VALID and 10.1.0.4.0 for the OLAP components.
    4) The Oracle Database must have the compatibility mode of 10.1 to use the Model View as it relies on the unique features found in Oracle Database 10g.
    SQL> select name, value, description from v$parameter where name ='compatible';
    You should see 10.1, not 9.2 or earlier.
    5) Please refer to the patchnote.htm that is bundled with 10.1.0.4.0 patch set. Only you are aware of what type of database configuration you have. You will want to pay close attention to "7.2.1.3 Set the SHARED_POOL_SIZE and JAVA_POOL_SIZE Initialization Parameters" and "7.2.2 Upgrade the Release 10.1 Database".
    Basically, I believe you have missed these required steps after installing the 10.1.0.4.0 patch set from the OUI: (pasted from the patchnote.htm)
    For the full discussion please refer to this link:

  • Workspace manager vs. shadow tables

    Hi,
    I have the requirement to track any changes (insert/update/delete) on db tables.
    At the end the user should be able to view the change history of records in the GUI.
    The two possible methods are (in my opinion):
    a) workspace manger
    b) manage shadow tables manually (with triggers)
    Has anyone experience with workspace manager for this use case?
    What are the pros and contras of the two methods?
    Database is 10gR2
    regards

    We are using OWB to create OLAP because you have your metadata properly defined in the design repository of OWB from where you can deploy to different databases and schemas. We are also using OWB to create tables and other relational objects instead of using SQL Developer or Toad to do so.
    Nevertheless there are some restrictions when using OWB: You cannot create programs with OWB (e.g. for limiting access to certain objects), not all aggregation operators are supported (e.g. the weighted aggregation operators like WSUM are not supported by OWB), you cannot create models, ...
    If you come to these restrictions you could write "after-deployment scripts", i.e. you deploy your dimensions and cubes from OWB and let the scripts do what you could not model with OWB.
    Hope this helps!

  • Workspace Manager?

    I have 10g 10.1.0.2 patchset to 10.1.0.4, I want to know if Workspace Manager is already installed or i have to download it?
    Because I need Workspace Manager but from the OTN is available only a version for Oracle 9i?
    Thanks

    Joao,
    All was fine until I re-ran the create schema script (which killed all the related sdo_geom_metadata entries).
    If I first add the entry to sdo_geom_metadata using the original table name (COMM_SATELLITE in this example), then enable wm versioning, and then create a spatial index, I get:
    CREATE INDEX GCM.COEQPSAT_SPATIALP_IDX ON GCM.COMM_SATELLITE(GEOMETRY_P)
    ERROR at line 1:
    ORA-01702: a view is not appropriate here
    ...Since COMM_SATELLITE is now a view. And if I point the index routine at the new base table (where the data really is) I get:
    CREATE INDEX GCM.COEQPSAT_SPATIALP_IDX ON GCM.COMM_SATELLITE_LT(GEOMETRY_P)
    ERROR at line 1:
    ORA-29855: error occurred in the execution of ODCIINDEXCREATE routine
    ORA-13203: failed to read USER_SDO_GEOM_METADATA view
    ORA-13203: failed to read USER_SDO_GEOM_METADATA view
    ORA-06512: at "MDSYS.SDO_INDEX_METHOD_10I", line 10
    ORA-06512: at line 1
    ... Since there is no entry in sdo_geom_metadata for COMM_SATELLITE_LT. So I went back to adding a sdo_geom_metadata entry for COMM_SATELLITE_LT, instead of COMM_SATELLITE, which works.
    My take away is that you do need to change the SDO metadata information for WM to point at the base table, at least with my tests on 10g.
    It would be good for the WM scripts to adjust the sdo_geom_metadata entry so that this isn't an issue. My $.02.

  • Workspace Manager and APEX

    I was experimenting with using workspace manager (via DBMS_WM) to version a set of tables. Does everything I want, easily and quickly.
    However, when I update versioned objects in APEX, and then look at the HIST table, the user name is APEXPUBLIC_USER.
    I understand why this is, but does anyone know of any means of overriding the user saved in the _HIST table, using the APEX user instead.
    I had a look at the IOT on the BASE object, but didnt see where it inserts into HIST.
    Any help greatly appreciated.
    Thanks, Rob

    Hi Robert,
    some time ago I created a german how to document on Workspace Manager and APEX - you'll find it here.
    http://www.oracle.com/webfolder/technetwork/de/community/apex/tipps/wm/index.html
    Be careful - in the following text a "workspace" is not an APEX workspace but a DBMS_WM workspace.
    The "_HIST table" is not a table but a view. When version-enabling a table Workspace Manager renames the table, adds columns
    for the versioning information and creates some views. The most important view is the view which "replaces" the original table. The
    "_HIST" view is another view.
    Workspace manager also creates an INSTEAD OF trigger which "catches" the DML done on the view (which now has the name
    of the original object). That DML is being enriched with User and timestamp information and then placed into the original table
    (which now has another name).
    The user information is there because Workspace manager allows to grant privileges on "workspaces" to other users. So you ...
    * first version-enable a table
    * create a new workspace (CHANGES_1)
    * do some DML
    * grant access on your workspace to the other user say: HUGO
    Now you and HUGO can access the workspace CHANGES_1 and review your DML. All other users can only see the
    table status before your changes. So as long as you don't access the version enabled object from different database
    schemas (i.e. different parsing schemas) and you don't use the DBMS_WM.GRANT.... procedures you don't have to care
    about the APEX_PUBLIC_USER information in the HIST view.  You can live with the APEXPUBLIC_USER information.
    Does that help ...?
    Best regards
    -Carsten
