The
Workflow background engine processes deferred activities, notifications, wait
activities and time out activities. We need to setup the Workflow background
engine when setting up Workflow in our environment. Also we need to schedule
the Workflow Background Process concurrent program to re-submit periodically.
When
scheduling the concurrent program, specify the Order Management work item types
as the parameter so that it will only pick up the activities or notifications
for Order Management work items.
Schedule
the Workflow Background Process concurrent program to resubmit periodically:
·
Define the Process Deferred parameter as
Yes. Set all other parameters to No. Schedule this request to run most frequently.
·
Define Process Time-out as Yes, and all
other parameters as No. This can run less frequently.
·
Define Process Stuck set to Yes and all
other parameters as No. This can run less often.
Run the Workflow Background process from the system administrator
responsibility
Use the Tools Menu and select the Workflow Status to view the current status of
the workflow.
Submit the OEOH & OEOL (Header
& line workflow) from database:
BEGIN
wf_engine.Background (itemtype=>'OEOH', -- ‘OEOL’
minthreshold => NULL,
maxthreshold => NULL,
process_deferred => TRUE,
process_timeout=> FALSE,
process_stuck => NULL);
END;
When an order header workflow is error
out, how to retry the workflow for the order?
Go to workflow administrator, provide the item key (header_id) and
submit to retry the WF for the corresponding order.
