Jarvis Pizzeria: Human Tasks: Design First WebForms in PCS by Richard Olrichs & Marcel van de Glind

September 4, 2018 Leave a comment

To create simple Human Tasks we use web forms in Process Cloud Service (PCS). Within the Delivery Process of the Jarvis Pizzeria, we are going to implement the HT for ‘Try Contacting the Customer’. This human task should become available after we have checked that the Customer is not a member and we do not know his email address. 

Try contacting the non-regular / member from Jarvis Pizzeria, in the swimlane of the CallCenter.

We will take the Design First approach, meaning we will design the form and know what data objects we need afterwards, instead of looking at the data we need for the Human Task first.

This means we can start by creating a new web form.

In the properties window from the task we click the add ‘+’ icon next to the Form.

We want to, but also only can select the ‘New Web Form’ option, the basic form is the old form used in previous versions of PCS. It is still available in the engine for backwards compatibility. Selecting this option will open the ‘Create New Web Form’. Read the complete article here.

Jarvis Pizzeria: Notification Task in PCS by Richard Olrichs & Marcel van de Glind

September 3, 2018 Leave a comment

 

imageSo far we have covered most standard components of the PCS suite. However, we haven’t looked at the “Notification Task” in-depth yet. We have used the on-premises variant at various projects but it was the hassle of setting up the User Messaging Service (UMS) that made you reluctant to use this feature on beforehand. Will the PCS variant be a gamechanger? Let’s find out!

We implemented a basic process with a standard notification task and configured it to send an email to marc.kuijpers@rubix.nl. The implementation details are shown below:

We deployed the process and sent a SOAP message to the corresponding endpoint. Looking at our instance in the workspace we see the following successful instance:

Yaaay! But before we ship this version to a production environment let’s see if we have received an email…..Unfortunately the answer is no 😦

Hmm, have we missed a setting? Do we have to configure something? Crawling to the settings in the Business Process Workspace we encountered the infrastructure tab. And it turns out that this is the place where we can configure the notification service. Read the complete article here.

Jarvis Pizzeria: Different presentations for the same WebForm by Richard Olrichs & Marcel van de Glind

September 2, 2018 Leave a comment

image

In a previous blog we created a default WebForm for the Pizza Preparation process. In each human interaction of the process we used this default WebForm with the default presentation. In this post we will create a different presentation for each human interaction in the process.

  1. Crust Preparation Will only show the pizza name and size. Both fields are editable.
  2. Filling the Pizza Shows alle data. The pizza name and size are read-only. The ingredients are editable. It’s also possible to add or remove ingredients.
  3. Put in Oven All data is shown read-only.
  4. Get out the Oven The Pizza naam and size are shown read-only.

As a starting point for this blog, we use the end result of the above mentioned blog. We begin by adding presentations to the IngredientsWebForm. Read the complete article here.

Oracle Management Cloud: Find SOA Suite issues quick and easy by MichelSchildmeijer

September 1, 2018 Leave a comment

One of the services which are delivered by the Oracle Management Cloud is the monitoring of infrastructure. Now in this case, infrastructure spans from host to software platform. In this blogpost I will try to explain how you can effectively behind issues in your Oracle SOA Suite operational environment. OMC can monitor some parts specific to the SOA suite, in fact all the engines which are enclosed in a SOA Suite running envrioment. These are:

  • The BPEL engine
  • The Mediator engine
  • The Descion Service Engine or Business Rules Engine

I simulated a test which processed a lot of transactions through the payment process of my company. SOA Suite was handling this payment process through an OSB service in the frontend and an enrichment though a SOA composite which did a validation based on some rules.

The company deployed a new release and adapter to get more benefit out of it.

During tests, I suddeny received an alert from OMC that the error rate on the BPEL engine was increased. When I looked into the Performance table of my soainfra entity I found the following:

Click on the SOA Composite field I could detect which composite was causing the error, the ValidatePayment. Read the complete article here.

Here a simple example, concentrating on Integration and Process.
The use case – user enters a new organization via a form, PCS is called too kick off an approvals process, if approved – call ICS to create the Organization in Service Cloud.

I begin by creating an Integration that accepts an organization name(String), maps that to the Name field in the Service Cloud Organization business object and then creates the Organization in Service Cloud.
I click on the Integrations link above to enter the Integration design time – yes, it is ICS. Read the complete article here.
