ACM 11g – Activities by Suyash Khot

In my previous blog, we looked at Oracle ACM’s Title, Priority, and Category artifacts and their configurations in an Oracle ACM project. In this blog, we will dig a bit deeper into ACM, specifically ACM Activities. Within an ACM Case, when you create an ACM Activity, you are presented with a few properties that need be set for the activity. The values you select in these properties will define that activity. In this blog post, we will take a look at these properties and, more interestingly, at how a combination of these properties define a case activity, and hence the case.

Before we dive into the properties, here is a quick look into how to create an ACM activity and the three levels an activity progresses through within a case.

Creating a Case Activity

While creating your BPM project, make sure you selected the ‘Composite with Case Management’ option. If you do that, when you right-click any BPM process or Human Task it gives you an option to ‘Promote as Case Activity’. When clicked, this creates a case activity under the case. That specific BPM process or that specific human task gets associated to the case activity, such that when that case activity is set to Running (see below for definition of Running), it kicks-off the BPM process or human task that you associated to that case activity. Read the complete article here.

A Model for Planning Your Oracle BPM 10g Migration by Kris Nelson

As the Oracle SOA Suite and BPM Suite 12c products enter beta, many of our clients are starting to discuss migrating from the Oracle 10g or prior platforms. With the BPM Suite 11g, Oracle introduced a major change in architecture with a strong focus on integration with SOA and an entirely new technology stack. In addition, there were fresh new UIs and a renewed business focus with an improved Process Composer and features like Adaptive Case Management. While very beneficial to both technology and the business, the fundamental change in architecture does pose clear migration challenges for clients who have made investments in the 10g platform. Some of the key challenges facing 10g customers include:

  • Managing in-process instance migration and running multiple process engines
  • Migration of User Interfaces and other code within the environment that may not be automated
  • Growing or finding technical staff with both 10g and 12c experience
  • Managing migration projects while continuing to move the business forward and meet day-to-day responsibilities

As a former practitioner in a mixed 10g/11g shop, I wrestled with many of these challenges as we tried to plan ahead for the migration. Luckily, there is migration tooling on the way from Oracle and several approaches you can use in planning your migration efforts. In addition, you already have a defined and visible process on the current platform, which will be invaluable as you migrate. 

A Migration ModelThis model presents several options across a value and investment spectrum. The goal of the AVIO Migration Model is to kick-start discussions within your company and assist in creating a plan of action to take advantage of the new platform. As with all models, this is a framework for discussion and certain processes or situations may not fit. Please contact us if you have specific questions or want to discuss migrations efforts in your situation. Read the complete article here.
