AppWorks

AppWorks Platform enables users to design, build, test, deploy, and monitor business applications. It provides low-code development capabilities that enable users to quickly model business objects using a compositional approach to application development instead of a traditional way of programming a functionality.

Dynamic SQL Builder Form
Has anyone out there built a form that builds dynamic SQL by allowing a user to specify conditions using different operators, parenthases using both AND & OR, and to store the criteria in a DB table? This is relatively straightforward work, so if someone has something to share, I'd appreciate the time savings. Rob
Listen For Text Files and import the data within
I am trying to find out in V9 if there is anything to "listen" out for a text file landing in a certain directory and once it has landed to extract the information into my process..... by the looks of it it all has to be scripted?? I was hoping like in some other BPM applications I have used you might be able to…
Metastorm BPM Protocols for Communication
The information in this article applies to: Product: Metastorm BPM Version: 9.x Issue * What protocols does Metastorm BPM use for communication? Resolution * Metastorm BPM's native web client connects to a Metastorm service using Metastorm's internal ECL. This can use either TCP or HTTP and is implemented via .NET…

Creating our own front end for end users (Metastorm BPM)
Hi there, We would like to create our own front end for Metastorm BPM and not use the web interface at all. Does the ECL currently have enough functionality to accomplish this? Is there any specific approach you would recommend to doing this? Thanks, Heathesh
Any way to commit BO without submitting form?
I am working in v9.1 and I have an editable grid bound to a table business object. The grid is a small part of a large form with segments that show/hide depending on which form part is being worked. I have added a button next to the grid with a server side action to commit the BO but that does nothing. Is there any way to…

Publishing Order
Normally, the order of models in a publishing list is alphabetical by model type (BIMs then Process Models, then Workflows, etc). However, I find that most would prefer to see the Process model and the Workflow model together (two views of same thing). I would like a check box that allows me to order the models as such…
Publishing - All Process Models (No Interpretations)
Picture a notebook with 90 process models (and 90 interpretations of course). When I check on the process model box in the publishing window it includes all 90 process models AND their interpretations. Sometimes, we just want the models -- I don't want to hand de-select the 90 interpretations. Allow me a check box to say…
Easy Way to Exclude Layers when Publishing
Ok, picture a notebook with 90 workflows and 90 process models. Each workflow model has about 7 layers. When you publish, the publishing function considers each layer sort of like a separate model - you can choose to publish each layer or not independently. As a result, when I tell PV I want to publish all 90 workflows, it…
Training Help
Ok, so we invested in PV now we have many people that need to learn basic functionality such as publishing, or ... pick a topic. We need to be able to facilitate their learning process on their schedule and with little investment -- oh and potentially 30mins or less at a shot. Sound familiar? And, yes, in some cases we…
Measuring Utilization
One of the things people who have ProVision need to do is justify the cost. On a larger scale we need to justify our EA efforts. I am trying to determine how I can measure a few things: License check-outs from the license server, model views via webvision/KE, etc. Is anyone out there doing this? I am shocked at what I have…
Tracking Model Consumption / Views via WebVision and/or Smart Biz Workspace
I am in the process of developing an EA scorecard to measure the value being delivered by our EA effort. One of the things I need to measure are "hits" or consumption events where people are viewing models through a KE web portal. I need to see this functionality in a future release. I would think OpenText would have a…
Connections and DTC
Whoops, posted this in Welcome boards by accident.... My setup is as follows: 1 metastorm engine, development environment, V9.1 1 database server, sql server on cluster Within the designer I'm trying to run a simple query and populate a drop down. I end up getting a DTC error, which it seems may be DTC settings.…
Launching, as a batch, new BPM processes
Is it possible for BPM 7.6 to batch create several new and separate BPM processes? Can this be done by reading and incorporating data from an external (non BPM table) into a new BPM process/form, one record at a time? Each new record data from the non BPM table will be used to create a new and separate BPM process,…

Node install with MQ client and separate queue manager
While trying different installation combination, with hit a roadblock with this one. We do a Node installation on a machine running MQ client, that connects to a separate QM before reaching the QM where the Entreprise node is connected. Installation and registration to the Entreprise node worked perfectly. Channels and QM…

Publishing help in ProVision for Shared Contextual Activities
Hi, Does anyone know quickest way to publish WorkFlow Modeler with interpretations from ProVision that includes shared objects from other contexts (in same notebook)? The only way I know is to open the entire context one by one and publish only that context. Is there an option where when I select Level 1 workflow it picks…
