Coercions allow you to specify a type for Process DATA elements that are not a specific datatype. For example, a CHOICE element can be COERCED into one of the possible data TYPES for the element, or an element of datatype any can be coerced into a specific data type.

• Shared variable: Shared Variable resource allows you to share data across process INSTANCES. All process instances can read and UPDATE the data stored in a shared variable. This type of shared variable is useful if you wish to PASS data across process instances or if you wish to make a common set of information available to all process instances
• Job shared variable: Job Shared Variable resource is similar to a Shared Variable, but its scope is LIMITED to the current job. A COPY of the variable is created for each new process instance. This type of shared variable is useful for passing data to and from sub-processes without creating an input or output schema for the called process.

• GLOBAL Variables: These variables allow you to specify constants that can be used throughout the project. The constants can be specified and CHANGED while DESIGNING and testing your project. You can also specify different values for each deployment of your project.
• Process variables: These variables allow you to access various data in your project. For example, there are predefined process variables containing the process ID, project name, and other information. You can also create user-defined process variables for containing process-specific data.
• SHARED variables: These variables allow you to specify data for use across multiple process instances. Because multiple process instances can access the same variable, you can also synchronize access across processes when setting or retrieving the shared variable.

Pick first groups allow process execution to wait for one or more events. The first event that completes determines which TRANSITION to take to continue processing. For EXAMPLE, as part of an order-entry system, when an order is placed, a check is made to SEE if the order can be filled from stocked INVENTORY or from RETURNED merchandise. Whichever system returns the information first is used to fill the order. If neither system returns the information about available inventory, the order time out and cancels.

You can group a set of related ACTIVITIES, with a common set of transitions into and out of the group. If you do not wish for the activities in the group to repeat, specify the group action to be none. No action groups are primarily useful for specifying a single error transition out of the group so that if an unhandled error OCCURS in the group, you only NEED one error transition instead of an error transition for each activity. This behavior is similar to a try...catch BLOCK in JAVA.

If you wish to STORE data from each successive iteration of a loop, you can create a PROCESS variable and use the ASSIGN activity in the loop to store or alter data for each iteration. For Iterate and Repeat until True loops, you can OPTIONALLY accumulate the output of each execution of one activity in the group into a LIST. This list becomes the group’s output and the list is available to subsequent activities in the process definition.

The amount of time a message will wait (in milliseconds) if it is received before this task is reached in the process. If the event TIMEOUT expires, an error is logged and the event is discarded.

If no VALUE is specified in this field, the message waits INDEFINITELY. If zero is specified, the event is discarded IMMEDIATELY, unless this has already been reached.

If no value is specified in this field, the message waits indefinitely. If zero is specified, the event is discarded immediately, unless this has already been reached.

• You can save the EXCEL file as .csv file and you can use the same csv format by giving the column separator and line separator.
• You can use JDBC Excel driver, or JDBC-ODBC BRIDGE and then ODBC Excel driver. Both METHODS allow read/write of excel files USING SQL

In GENERAL, there is no LIMITATION to ACTIVITIES in PROCESS DEFINITION.

In general, there is no limitation to activities in process definition.

The Checkpoint activity performs a checkpoint in a running PROCESS INSTANCE. A checkpoint saves the current process data and state so that it can be recovered at a later time in the event of a failure. If a process engine fails, all process instances can be recovered and RESUME EXECUTION at the LOCATION of their last checkpoint in the process definition. If a process instance fails due to an unhandled exception or manual termination, it can optionally be recovered at a later time, if the process engine is configured to save checkpoint data for failed processes.

If you modified any PROPERTY (Enumeration..etc) for any field in in Schema, you need not re-design your project. It's just property, it automatically imported where EVER you’re USING (DIFF process) this schema.

No.

No.

Memory saving mode can REDUCE the memory USED by actively running process instances as well as potentially improve the performance of checkpoints. By default, memory saving mode is disabled, but you can enable garbage collection on specific process instances by setting the Enable Memory Saving Mode. property to true. You can enable memory saving mode for all process instances by setting the Enable Memory Saving Mode property to true Enable Memory Saving Mode. = true

Try this property adding your Deployment Tra file or BW Engine.Tra file and Redeploy it. But memory saving is very limited though, make sure if your process is CLAIMING more heap and/or reaching to out of memory exception, there is something wrong with process design, verify each actitivity and cleanup all unused CONTENT.

• A producer sends a MESSAGE to the central server. The server stores the message until it has DELIVERED it to each consumer
• Producer to server; server to consumers.
• Store and forward queue PROTOCOL.
• The central server stores all messages and delivery state for all its clients; it requires disk resources in PROPORTION to total throughput volume.
• Disk failure on a server host computer can be catastrophic, affecting all messages from every client. Many installations protect against disk failure USING safeguards such as disk mirroring.
• The central server is the master of overall delivery state.

RV

• A producer sends a message to consumers. The producer stores the message until each consumer has acknowledged receipt
• Peer-to-peer.
• Stream-oriented protocol.
• Each producer stores its outbound messages and some delivery state; it requires disk resources in proportion to its outbound volume.
• Disk failure on a peer host computer affects only the messages that its programs produce or consume. However, disk mirroring for each individual peer is often impractical.
