Webcast on Tuesday, January 12, 2016 9:00 am | Pacific Standard Time (San Francisco, GMT-08:00) | 1 hr

Join us as we recreate one of the most popular Oracle Open World sessions around the Oracle SOA Suite and deliver it to the world via webinar format. We are hoping this webinar will be the first of many and we plan to expand this into a series to create a more robust information sharing community around SOA Suite, including the Oracle product management and engineering teams, A-team, customers and partners. For this first session, we are delivering an expanded version of the OOW “Tips and Tricks for Oracle SOA Suite” session, which is always delivered to a packed room. In the webinar version, we will be able to provide a little more time to each of the speakers and topics, which are:
Joe Kardamis from The Sherwin-Williams Company, talking about agile development methodology with SOA
Antony Reynolds from the Oracle Service (SOA) & Cloud Integration Product Management team, talking about error handling and managing your dehydration store

The content for this session is fast, focused and highly technical, with extra materials and links to documentation provided in the slides for attendees future reference. We encourage you to come with your related project questions and ask them during the Q&A periods. If you are working actively with the Oracle SOA Suite, we guarantee you will walk away with some truly useful information! Note: Total attendees for the webinar may be limited, and since we are not sure how popular this event will be, we encourage you to pre-register and join the webinar a few minutes early. All who register will receive invitations to future related events and the ability to access a recording of the webinar in case you have any trouble connecting.

Oracle’s UX strategy: See where it’s heading on the VoX blog

 

clip_image002Want a preview of what Jeremy Ashley, Oracle Applications User Experience (OAUX) Group Vice President, will say at Oracle OpenWorld 2015 in October? Three new posts on the Oracle UX strategy have been published on the Voice of User Experience, or VoX, blog to give you just that.

Going Beyond the Notification: Transitioning With the Evolving Enterprise

In the first article of our strategy series, we talk about the transition of the enterprise — the changing workforce, the increasing mobility — and decipher how the user experience of the Oracle Applications Cloud is transitioning with it. Wondering when the innovation will reach your company’s Oracle applications system and affect you, or how much it’s all going to cost? Look no further. This transition doesn’t have to hurt.

Big-Picture Innovation on the Path to a Better User Experience

In our second strategy post, we focus on the theme of mobility alongside the theme of simplicity and discuss where we get our inspiration. All of Oracle’s user experience projects are based on innovation, understanding the most important aspect of a task, and helping improve efficiency and productivity. If you want to know how we’re innovating and what we’re researching, read on. Emerging technology is only the beginning.

Consistency, Context, Convenience, Participation? Check!

Our third strategy post digs into specifics and discusses the challenges and opportunities Oracle’s R&D team is facing in order to design that mobile user experience. You know that if users don’t like the system, they won’t use it, so what do we need to do to maximize participation? You won’t want to miss this.

New content for partners

The UX PaaS4SaaS: Enabling Oracle Applications Cloud Partner Confidence social story tells how partners and customers use Oracle PaaS to build SaaS integrations focused on a quality user experience, to innovate in the Cloud and benefit their businesses. Find out how the Oracle Applications User Experience team’s Rapid Development Kit (RDK) lets partners differentiate and build modern, must-have user experiences for the Oracle Applications Cloud. And hear what industry thought leaders have to say about building modern apps in faster and smarter ways by using Oracle UX and the Cloud toolkit.

Visit Oracle University for a new webcast for partners, “Oracle Applications Cloud User Experience Innovations: Visualizations.” The webcast is also available via Customer Connect playback.

Check the UsableApps YouTube channel for a new playlist, “We recommend watching this …” It has some new customer perspective videos and a new demo of Glance, an app we’re developing for wearables based on the “Glance, Scan, Commit” design philosophy. To read more about what’s behind the Glance step, visit the AppsLab blog for a post called “A Framework for Wearables, Glance.”

Ultan O’Broin, with the OAUX Communications & Outreach team, writes on the Usable Apps blog that the ERP user experience is no longer just icing on the cake. It’s central to user happiness and business productivity, satisfying that ever-ravenous appetite for consumerlike apps in the enterprise. Read his post, “From Cupcakes to the Cloud: Oracle ERP User Experience Bakes In Exceedingly Better Business*,” for more.

Finally, Gretchen Alarcon, Group Vice President, Product Strategy, takes a look at what’s coming for the Oracle HCM Cloud in Oracle Applications Release 10 Spotlight on HCM Cloud, a new video on YouTube.

Groovy Time! How to use XML dateTime and duration in BPM 12c by Jan Kettenis

 

clip_image001

In this article I show some examples of handling XML dateTime and durations in Groovy in the context of a Oracle BPM 12c application. Working with dates and durations in Java has always been painful. Mainly because date and time is a complex thing, with different formats and time zones and all, but I sometimes wonder if it has not been made overly complex. Anyway. Working with XML dates is even more complex because the limited support by XPath functions. Too bad because in BPM applications that work with dates this has to be done very often, and as a result I very often see the need to create all kinds of custom XPath functions to mitigate that.
This issue of complexity is no different for Groovy scripting in Oracle BPM 12c. And let handling of dates be a typical use case for using Groovy scripting because of this limited support by XPath. Therefore, to get you started (and help myself some next time) I would like to share a couple of Groovy code snippets for working with XML dates and durations that may be useful. These example are based on working with the XML dateTime type, and do not handle with the complexity of time zones and different formats. In my practice this is 99% of the use cases that I see.
In my opinion you still should limit using Groovy to handle dates and to the minimum, and rather use custom XPath functions, or create a Java library which you can can import in Groovy. But when you have to, this just might come in handy.

Instantiate an XML Date

If you have an XML element of type dateTime, you use an XmlCalender object. An XmlCalender object with the current time can instantiated as shown below: Read the complete article here.

BPM 12c SKIP / BACK Exception Handling Lessons Learned by Dan Atwood

clip_image002

The new Oracle BPM 12c SKIP / BACK feature has some interesting facets that are not commonly known.  This describes what it can be used for as well as three cautions to be aware of when using it.

Use Cases for SKIP / BACK

The new Oracle BPM 12c SKIP / BACK feature greatly assists exception handling in a processes. Although Oracle BPM 11g was able to catch exceptions in processes, once caught in an error event subprocess the only option was then to exit the process.  Oracle BPM 12c’s SKIP / BACK gives us some essential functionality we have needed in the product. It not only catches exceptions thrown in a process in an Error event subprocess, but now you are able to:

  • Set the “action” predefined variable to either “skip” or “back” to send the instance back to the point in the process where the exception occurred (“back”) or to send the instance back to the activity after where the exception occurred (“skip”).
  • What is not commonly known is that after the exception is thrown and when the instance is in the event subprocess, variable information can be set in the event subprocess. When the instance is returned to the process, the process payload’s information is changed as well.

To download an Oracle BPM 12c project that demonstrates this new capability click here. Oracle ACE Associate Antonis Antoniou has written an excellent blog post that takes you through the steps needed to create a project with SKIP / BACK:  “Oracle BPM 12c Advanced Error Handling and Recovery – Part 1”.

Three Cautions When Using SKIP / BACK

SKIP / BACK is a powerful new feature, but there are three things you need to be aware of when using it.

  1. As Antonis mentions in his blog, be very careful when using the BACK action. If the original problem has not been corrected that caused the exception to occur in the main process, an infinite loop can easily occur between the work item instance in the process main process and the event subprocess. Read the complete article here.
