My Favorite PeopleSoft Flavor: Vanilla by Vivek Ahuja

This post provides an overview of how Oracle BPM can be used with PeopleSoft to gain more out of your ERP. It also covers how to go about separating the process and personalization/customization layers from your ERP, to encourage leveraging more vanilla, out-of-the-box ERP functionality, rather than an over customized, costly to maintain version. Oracle BPM takes out the process inefficiencies associated with your ERP. It provides you with a range of different governance and workflow capabilities, which allows you to efficiently operate in your ERP with robust drill down features. This enables your process users and key stakeholders to uncover operational gaps that may be hindering your business from attaining efficiency gains or untapped revenue channels.

New release of Solution Accelerators now available on OTN By Cesare Rotundo

The new release of Solution (aka: Process) Accelerators is now available on OTN. This new release has been focused on improving existing accelerators with most customer demand while adding a new accelerator to the catalog which showcases Adaptive Case Management (ACM): Complaints Management.
Complaints management has become a strategic focus area in many industries where customer service is the top priority. It has impacts on customer satisfaction and retention, and may involve compliance penalties. However, processes and solutions that support employees dealing with complaints are ad-hoc, custom, and fraught with manual steps and paper.
The Complaints Management Accelerator, built using the best BPM, ACM, and Content platform available today, enables effective and efficient customer complaints resolution. Using ACM we have organized the complaints settlement process across four phases: Filing, Review, Investigation, and Resolution, while enabling churn likelihood control via R-generated indexes. The Complaints Management accelerator thus enables knowledge workers to choose the best actions leading to efficient complaint resolution, also taking into account unscheduled events such as the receipt of a new document from the customer.
Customers can quickly input their products, complaints types, and other data specific to them using out-of-the-box Administrator UIs, and refine the resolution processes and cases configured in the Accelerator according to their requirements, exploiting ACM’s model to flexibly fit their needs and exceed customer expectations.
Other accelerators have also been improved, including:

  • Employee Onboarding has been enhanced to provide WebCenter based imaging to allow compliance documents (I-9, W-4) to be scanned and associated with the onboarding instance for the new hire
  • eForms Management, now with the option to remotely deploy a Citizen eForm for submission
  • Internal Service Requests, now with examples of department-specific approval tasks
  • Finally, Approval Management for Microsoft Excel® (AME), which generalizes the model of performing a complete BPM-driven approval cycle from within Excel, first introduced with the Financial Reports Approval accelerator.

This release continues to include out-of-the-box integration scenarios with Oracle Applications Products, including Siebel, PeopleSoft, and the E-Business Suite. Read the article here.

BPM 11g Performance Tuning Whitepaper published by Mark Nelson

I am happy to announce that our new BPM 11g Performance Tuning whitepaper is now available on OTN. To access the whitepaper please click here. This white paper captures real world best practices from actual performance tuning exercises across many real BPM implementations. It is referred as a ‘best practices’ because we have found them over time and over many engagements to give the best results.

The whitepaper has been under development for quite a while now, and has been through a heap of reviews and revisions. So it is great to finally get it and hopefully you will find it useful!

From reporting on tuning experiences, to writing, reviewing, and testing, many people have contributed to this whitepaper. I would like to thank the following people for providing their contribution to make it a great learning source:
Vikas Anand, Deepak Arora, Partricio Barletta, Heidi Buelow, Christopher Karl Chan, Manoj Das, Andrew Dorman, Pete Farkas, Mark Foster, Simone Geib, Kim LiChong, Ralf Mueller, Bhagat Nainani, Sabha Parameswaran, Robert Patrick, David Read, Derek Sharpe, Sushil Shukla, Kavitha Srinivasan, Meera Srinivasan, Will Stallard and Shumin Zhao.

I sincerely hope that I have not missed anyones name, but if I have, the error is entirely mine.

This whitepaper is meant to compliment the Performance and Tuning Guide in the Fusion Middleware documentation. Readers should also consult the excellent whitepaper on purging SOA/BPM 11g databases by Michael Bousamra with Deepak Arora and Sai Sudarsan Pogaru which is available on OTN here.

For those with an interest in BPM 10g, I remind you of our previously published BPM 10g Performance Tuning whitepaper, which continues to be available on OTN here.
