Siebel Workflow – Process Steps – Part III


<< Previous Post of this Series                                                                                       Next Post of this Series >>

This post is continuation of post “Siebel Workflow – Process Steps”. In previous two posts we discussed about the four Process steps of Siebel Workflows, those were Start, Business Service, Decision Point and Sub Process. In Today’s post , we’ll  discuss further about the Siebel Workflow’s Process Steps.

   Ø  Siebel Operation Step : This Box will be used for query/update/insert operations in BC level. As already discussed that “Workflows are based on Business Object.” in our earlier Post “Siebel Workflow – Five Ws”. So that means, you can perform these operations only on those business component which are associated with the Business Object. If you want to perform the operation on other Business Component then either associate that Bus Comp or start a Sub Process.



           You need to provide below Siebel Operation Step Properties, if you want to perform any operation in your workflow.

ü  Business Component: Name of the Business Component
ü  Operation: Name of the Operation

           Operations which you can perform in this box are Delete, Insert, NextRecord, PrevRecord, Query, QueryBiDirectional, Update and Upsert.



   Ø  Task Step : You use this box when there is any task defined for user in your workflow. That means when you use this step it starts a Task UI and adds this Task UI in user’s inbox and workflow keeps waiting until the user finishes this task. Workflow resumes its waiting state and executes its further steps only when user finishes the Task UI. If you want to use this Task step box then workflow’s mode should be “Long Running Flow”.



          You need to provide below Task step Properties, if you want to call any task in your workflow.

ü  Task Name: Name of the Task


In next post “Siebel Workflow – Process Steps – Part IV” of this series will discuss about the rest of Siebel Workflow’s Process Steps.
