Monitoring Workflow Processes

This chapter discusses how to monitor an instance of a workflow process. This chapter covers the following topics: Accessing the Administrator Monitor Viewing Workflows in the Status Monitor Viewing Child Workflows Viewing Activit Histor Viewing a Status !iagram Viewing "esponses Viewing Workflow !etails Viewing #rror $nformation for a Workflow Assigning Speciali%ed Workflow Monitoring &rivileges &roviding Access to the Status Monitor from Applications Testing Status Monitor Access Testing Standard Access Testing 'uest Access Status Monitor &ortlets
Accessing the Administrator Monitor

The Administrator Monitor lets ou view and administer runtime workflows. (ou can use the monitor to review the activities performed for a workflow) check the status of the workflow * viewing the status diagram) review notifications sent * the workflow and participant responses) and review details a*out the workflow definition and attri*utes. $f ou have workflow administrator privileges) ou can also perform administrative actions within the monitor to control the processing performed for a workflow or handle an error. +or e,ample) ou can update workflow attri*utes) suspend and resume a workflow) cancel a workflow) or rewind the workflow to an earlier activit stage. (ou can also skip or retr an individual activit within a workflow) reassign a notification activit ) or suspend and resume a process activit . Workflow administrator privileges are assigned in the Workflow Configuration page. See: Setting 'lo*al -ser &references. Note: $f ou intervene in a workflow process with an administrative operation such as skipping) retr ing) or reassigning an activiti ) then .racle Workflow updates the audit trail for the process to show that ou performed that operation.

Oracle Workflow also allows users to be assigned specialized workflow monitoring privileges with restricted access to workflow data. If you have specialized workflow monitoring privileges, you can only view workflows and perform administrative actions to which you have been granted access. For example, you may only have access to monitor workflows belonging to particular item types, and you may be able to suspend and rewind workflows but not to skip activities. ee! "ssigning pecialized Workflow #onitoring $rivileges. If you only have specialized workflow monitoring privileges, you cannot perform any actions on workflows that you own yourself, irrespective of any permissions granted to you. Only users with full workflow administrator privileges assigned in the Workflow %onfiguration page can perform administrative actions on workflows that they own themselves. Note: If you have full workflow administrator privileges assigned in the Workflow %onfiguration page, then those privileges override any specialized workflow monitoring privileges assigned to you. &hat is, if you have full workflow administrator privileges, you can access all workflows, irrespective of any restrictions defined for any specialized privileges. 'ou can also use the Oracle Workflow #anager component of Oracle "pplications #anager as an additional administration tool to review and manage work items. ee! Oracle Workflow #anager Overview.

Viewing a Status Diagram

The &tatus Diagram page shows the process diagram for a workflow, including graphical cues about the status of the workflow and its activities. The page identifies the displayed workflow by its workflow type internal name and item key, as well as by its user key, if it has one. The )urrent &tatus region displays the process title, diagram, and detail tabs for the workflow. -eneath the detail tabs, the administration buttons appear. Process Title

The process title appears in the upper left of the Current Status region and displays the workflow process name, type, and user key. If no user key has been set, then the item key is displayed instead. If you drill down into a subprocess in the process diagram, the process title displays the subprocess name. Process Diagram Window The process diagram window is a scrolling canvas that displays the diagram of the workflow process or subprocess currently listed in the process title. This diagram is identical to the diagram created in Oracle Workflow uilder. !ote, however, that you cannot use the Workflow "onitor to edit this diagram. The process diagram window provides graphical cues about the status of the process and its activities. #n activity icon may be highlighted with a colored bo$ to indicate that it is in an %interesting% state.

Assigning Specialized Workflow Monitoring Privileges
1/1/2014
Page 1% of 40
You can designate certain users as administrators only for particular types of workflows by assigning those users specialized workflow monitoring privileges with restricted access to workflow data. You can base the restrictions on a defined set of item types or on criteria specific to a particular functional area. Ensure that users who act as specialized workflow administrators have access to the administrator version of the Status Monitor, either through an Oracle orkflow responsibility or from another application. See! Oracle orkflow "dministrator #avigation $aths and $roviding "ccess to the Status Monitor from "pplications. You must also grant permissions to specialized workflow administrators to enable them to perform administrative actions within the Status Monitor for workflows to which they have access. %owever, note that users cannot perform any actions on workflows that they own themselves, irrespective of any permissions granted to them. Only users with full workflow administrator privileges assigned in the orkflow &onfiguration page can perform administrative actions on workflows that they own themselves.

To Grant Restricted Access to Workflow Monitoring Data You can restrict access to workflow monitoring data based only on item types, only on functional criteria, or on both item types and functional criteria. %owever, because grants based on functional criteria depend on item attribute values, these grants are most effective when combined with grants for item types that share the same item attributes. +or more information about creating instance sets and grants, see! ,efining ,ata Security $olicies, Oracle E-.usiness Suite System "dministrator/s )uide - Security and "ssigning $ermissions to 0oles, Oracle E-.usiness Suite System "dministrator/s )uide - Security. 1.

Testing Status Monitor Access

You can use the Workflow Monitor Test Application to test the monitor access you want to provide from your application. The Programmatic Access page simulates calls to obtain U !s for navigating from an "racle Application #ramework$based Web page to a %tatus Monitor page or calls to redirect from an "racle Application #ramework$based Web page to a %tatus Monitor page. You can retrieve a test U ! or perform a trial redirection. The Programmatic Access page lets you test access to both the administrator and the self$service versions of the %tatus Monitor& using standard or guest access. The Advanced Worklist page is also included in the Workflow Monitor Test Application to let you test access from a workflow notification to the %tatus Monitor. You can test links from notifications to the administrator version of the %tatus Monitor& using guest access. 'n the Worklist& navigate to a notification that contains a link to the %tatus Monitor& and select that link to test the access it provides. %ee( To )iew *otifications from the Advanced Worklist& "racle Workflow User+s ,uide.
Menu Setup
The Workflow Monitor Test Application is available in "racle -$.usiness %uite& but it is not seeded on any "racle -$.usiness %uite menu. .efore you can use this module& your system administrator must add its menu to a top$level menu for a responsibility. The menu for the Workflow Monitor Test Application module is named Workflow Monitor Test Application /W#M"*0T-%T0APP!'1AT'"*2. #or e3ample& you can add this menu to the Workflow Administrator /*ew2 menu /#*40W#A4M'*0*-W2& which is associated with the Workflow Administrator Web /*ew2 responsibility& or to the Workflow User /*ew2 menu /#*40W#U%- 0*-W2& which is associated with the Workflow User Web /*ew2 responsibility. Additionally& when you navigate from the Workflow Monitor Test Application module to the %tatus Monitor using standard or guest access& you must perform the navigation from within a responsibility that also includes the menu for the %tatus Monitor version and access option you want to test. "therwise& you will encounter function security errors. To avoid these errors& ensure that the appropriate "racle Workflow menus are added to the same top$level menu as the W#M"*0T-%T0APP!'1AT'"* menu. The menus for the %tatus Monitor are( Workflow Administrator Application /W#0A4M'*'%T AT" 0APP!'1AT'"*2 $ e5uired for standard access to the Administrator Monitor Workflow ,uest Monitor Application /W#0,0M"*'T" 0APP!'1AT'"*2 $ e5uired for guest access to the Administrator Monitor Workflow %elf$%ervice Application /W#0%-!#0%- )'1-0APP!'1AT'"*2 $ e5uired for standard access to the %elf$%ervice Monitor Workflow ,uest %elf$%ervice Monitor Application /W#0%%,0M"*'T" 0APP!'1AT'"*2 $
