  8. Agenda • IBM BPM Statement of Environment • IBM Process Designer Enhancement • IBM Integration Designer Enhancements • IBM Process Server Enhancements • IBM Process Center Enhancements • IBM WebSphere Adapters Enhancements • IBM Business Monitor • IBM Process Center and Server Install and Migration • Process Portal

  9. New BPMN 2.0 Constructs • Sub-process • Message events • Event sub-processes • Event gateway

  10. Message Events • Message Start • Used to trigger a process or event Sub Process. • When triggering a process, creates a new process instance. • Message Send • Used in a process to send asynchronously a message • Corresponds to matching and correlated Message Receive event • Message End • Sends a message upon completion of a process instance • Message Receive • Used in a process to wait for a correlated Message Send event to be fired

  11. Message Event Example • Was available in a 7.5 • Messages can now be sent and received entirely at the BPD level. • UCAs are still used for implementation Send message when instance completes Start instance when message arrives

  12. Sub-process • Can be started synchronously • Connected to main process • Can be started asynchronously with an event (Event Sub-process) • Error (always interrupt parent process) • Message (optionally can interrupt parent process) • Timer (optionally can interrupt parent process) Double click to open Sub Process implementation Broken line means non-interruptible

  13. Event Sub-process Implementation Bread crumbs When the timer expires start sub-process, but DO NOT interrupt the parent Sub-process implementation Do not interrupt the parent

  14. Sub-process Variables Sub-process has no input/output variables Sub-process has access to parents variables

  15. Event Gateway • Wait for two or more events (with correlation) • Only Message and timer events are supported • An implementation pattern • Contained in a group • Group can be moved or deleted

  16. New Look and Feel Conforming to BPMN2 Standard Conditional activity execution Pre-Post Assignment defined Notes Multiple events can be attached

  17. New Look and Feel Conforming to BPMN2 Standard This is a linked sub-process – notice the dark border No breadcrumbs when you open Icon reflects task type Sub-process has drill-down icon Dotted line on task indicates event sub-process Dotted line on event indicates interruptible This is the event to start sub-process Icon indicates that double-click anywhere in activity box will open implementation

  18. New Editor Look and Feel • Simplified palette • Activities have defaults on initial drag and drop • Then can be changed • System Activities can reside in non System swim lane and vice-versa • No “Pool” •  Tracking settings that were on the pool are now on the Tracking tab • Inline editing of task names, swim lanes, etc… Simplified palette No Pool Inline editing

  19. Defining Activity Type • From Implementation Tab • In Activity Wizard

  20. New Consolidated Process App Settings Page • Automatically opened when PA is opened • Cannot be closed • Combines information previously exposed in different places Shows all “exposed” externally items as clickable links that lead to the item’s editor

  21. Process App Settings: Environment and Servers Tabs Use server type sensitive Environment Variables in your Process App Define servers used for Integration Service implementations

  22. BPMN2 Import • Produces a playback ready BPDs • Generates App Name and Acronym • Converts non-human services to Integration Service or Advanced Integration Service with emulations • Human tasks are imported as a simple Human service which includes a "start -> Default Coach -> end” • Automatic Layout of the diagram produces a consumable process flow diagram • BO’s, Participant Groups are imported • Extensions • Will import Milestones defined in Blueworks • Supports Tag definitions for Smart folders Implementation options available only in BPM Advanced

  23. BPMN2 Export /Import from Blueworks Live Milestones Sub-process Advanced Integration Services Participant Group Participant Group

  24. BPMN2 Import Traceability and Visibility • When <tagging:tag> element is defined in the incoming BPMN2 import file, the following is created: • Imported Items Smart Folder • Smart Folder includes the tag specification so that you can see all imported tagged items • Tag syntax

  25. IFW BPMN Artifacts Tagging

  26. BPMN2 Export • For exchange with other BPMN 2.0 compliant systems • The basics only • Does not export the IBM extensions for traceability and search

  27. BPMN 2 Interchange 4Q 2011 IFW 8.4.0 Rational System Architect IBM BPM 11.4.1 7.5.1 Exchange is via Process Center BPMN 2 Format Blueworks Live Rational Software Architect Today 8.0.3 WebSphere Business Compass WebSphere Business Modeler 7.0.0.4 7.0.0.4 Business Modeler imports BPMN 2 models via Business Compass

  28. AIS Emulation Flag • When AIS is not implemented it is emulated by default • Once AIS is implemented user can toggle whether the AIS is emulated or not Emulated AIS is a Coach which allows to enter valued for the output variable

  29. Postpone AIS The BLA for RefactorPA tip is being deployed and is currently in stopped state Emulation turned off Postpone button to run the service later when the BLA is started/deployed

  30. Refactoring of Advanced Artifacts • Includes a wide range of Move and Copy refactoring scenarios • Involves the advanced artifacts such as WSDLs, BOs and AIS • These artifacts are shared between ID and PD • This feature can best illustrated by two examples…

  31. Example 1 • Scenario • Inside a Process AP an AIS was implemented in ID using a WSDL that has the BO physically included (bound) inside • In PD we move the BO from the Process App to a Toolkit • Refactoring Actions • The AIS is automatically included in the move • This is so as not break the WSDL/BO binding

  32. Advance Artifact Refactoring Example 1 2. In Process App, Insurance AIS and Claim BO 1. Insurance WSDL physically includes Claim BO. Insurance AIS authored using Insurance WSDL 3. Moving BO only to a Toolkit

  33. Advance Artifact Refactoring Example 1 4. AIS will be moved with the BO because the BO cannot be moved without moving the WSDL 7. AIS must be re-implemented (impl. was not moved!) 6. AIS. WSDL and BO have all been moved now reside in the Toolkit. The PA now references the Toolkit 5. New destination Toolkit snapshot created and added

  34. Example 2 • Scenario • Process App includes 2 BOs and an AIS • AIS uses the BOs and is implemented in PD • We move one of the BOs to a Toolkit • Refactoring Actions • Toolkit is snapshot • Process App is updated to reference the toolkit • In PD (upon Refresh) the Library in the Toolkit is automatically included in the Process App module

  35. Advance Artifact Refactoring Example 2 1. AIS references two BOs defines in this Process App 2. ID shows in the Library: the two BOs, Implemented AIS, and the AIS interface 3. Move Customer BO to a Toolkit

  36. Advance Artifact Refactoring Example 2 3. Toolkit got snapshoted, Toolkit reference added to the Process App 4. Customer BO is no in the Toolkit 7. Toolkit’s Library now referenced by the Process App Module 6. Toolkit referenced by the Process App 5. Customer BO is now in the Toolkit Library

  37. IBM Case Manager Integration with IBM BPM • Integration of cases (hosted by IBM Case Manager) with business processes (hosted by IBM BPM) The existing WPS 7.0 integration with ICM 5.0 (Case Task calling BPEL Process) remains supported and unchanged

  38. Two IBM Case Manager Interaction Patterns • Business Analyst (ICM role) – uses IBM Case Manager • Case Tasks are “implemented” in the Case Builder task editor • Case Tasks that execute as a business process can be implemented in IBM BPM • A case definition is stored in a Filenet repository • Requires ICM to be configured and connected to Process Center • Business Programmer (BPM role) - uses Process Designer • Four interaction patterns exist • Create new case • Search for exiting cases • Retrieve properties of an exiting case • Updating properties of an exiting case • Requires that ICM Server be configured in Process Designer

  39. Pattern 1: Add a BPM Process as Case Task Implementation BPDs available for re-use

  40. Pattern 1: Map Case Properties to BPM Process Variables Mapping between the case variables and the BPD variables

  41. Pattern 2: Authoring an ICM Integration Service 1 2 6 3 5 0 4 7

  42. IBM Case Manager Integrated Inbox • Users who need to work with IBM BPM 7.5.1 (Human Tasks and Human Services) and IBM CM 5.1 Cases have a single consistent interface – Business Space • The inboxes and can display and edit work • IBM BPM (Human Workflow with BPDs, BPEL with Human Tasks) • IBM BPM Inbox widgets • IBM BPM Human Task Management widgets • IBM CM (Cases) • ICM Case Management widgets

  43. IBM Case Manager Integrated Inbox The user, (in this case an ICM user) does not need to know the origin of a work item. Tasks from different runtimes all federated in a single in-box widget

  44. Different Editors Used to Open the Tasks (ICM) Clicking an ICM task opens it in ICM task widget

  45. Different Editors Used to Open the Tasks (BPEL) Clicking “BPEL” Human Task opens it in a “BPEL” Human Task widget

  46. Different Editors Used to Open the Tasks (BPD) Clicking “BPD” Human Task opens the Coach

  47. SameTime Integration with Business Space • Ability to interact with a task owner via Same Time • Same Time integration requires installation and configuration Check Same Time availability of a task owner status Available Same Time actions Launch a Same Time chat session

  48. Agenda • IBM BPM Statement of Environment • IBM Process Designer Enhancement • IBM Integration Designer Enhancements • IBM Process Server Enhancements • IBM Process Center Enhancements • IBM WebSphere Adapters Enhancements • IBM Business Monitor • IBM Process Center and Server Install and Migration • Process Portal

  49. Clustered Process Server UTE Setup Enhancements • The default Server configuration in ID now properly sets the ports of a clustered ND-based Process Server or Process Center • In 7.5 the port was incorrectly pointing to 9080 instead and had to be set manually ID: Server Settings Admin Console: Deployment Manager Settings

  50. Dynamic Service Lookup Pattern • Enables migration to IBM BPM 7.5.1 from WDPE and WBSF • WDPE and WBSF key adopter was Telecom Industry Endpoint selection policies Composite Business Service Fabric programming model
