ANEXO No. 1: ACTA O CHARTER DEL PROYECTO

Build a client-side human service to handle the interaction for process or case instances between the system and users through interactive tasks, dashboards, or user interfaces. Within a client-side human service, you can use coaches, client-side scripts, and services to create a service flow that is run entirely in a web browser. Case management functions are only available if you have IBM BPM Advanced with the Basic Case Management feature installed.

Before you begin

To perform this task, you must be in the IBM® Process Designer desktop editor. To create services, you must have access to a process application or toolkit in the Process Center repository. Access to process applications and toolkits is controlled by users who have administrative rights to the repository. For more information, see

Managing access to the Process Center repository.

About this task

Building a client-side human service is an iterative process in which many of the steps can be done in any order. In general, you create a flow, create the user

interface through one or more coaches, and then test and fix problems. The steps in the procedure are in a suggested order but typically you will go back and forth

through the steps as you iteratively build the client-side human service

implementation. For example, you could create a simple client-side human service that has a couple of coaches and variables and test it in one iteration. You then expand the client-side human service by adding more coaches and variables, client- side scripts, decisions, and other details in later iterations. Similarly, you could

create some variables immediately and create other variables as you need them.

Remember:IBM BPM also has heritage human services. While client-side human

services flow entirely in the web browser, heritage human services instead flow on

the server. For more information, see Difference between client-side human

services and heritage human services.

Procedure

Open the Process Designer desktop editor.

Open a process application in the Designer view.

In New Service, enter a name for the service and click Finish.IBM Process Designer displays the diagram of the service with the default Start Event and End Event components.

Create the client-side human service artifact. You can do this from the

navigation tree or you can do this from the activity wizard. For information, see

In the Variables page, define the data used by artifacts within the client-side human service. This data consists of data passed into the client-side human service, data used only within the service, and data passed out of the client-side

human service. For information, see Declaring variables for a human service.

In the Diagram page, add coaches, client-side scripts, called services, and exclusive gateways to the client-side human service diagram. Connect them to define the flow for the client-side human service.

For each element in the client-side human service diagram, define its properties. For information, see the following topics:

Implementing exclusive gateways in client-side human services Calling another service from a client-side human service

If the client-side human service is within a BPD or a case type activity, map the

input and output data. For information, see Mapping input and output data for an

activity or step.

If the client-side human service is within a BPD or a case instance and you want users to be able to resume work at a particular point with minimal loss, select a flow line in the diagram and then select to save the execution context. For

information, see Saving the state of a client-side human service during execution

.

To validate the data in a coach, add a coach validation pattern to the client-side

human service diagram. For information, see Validating client-side coaches

using client-side validation.

To postpone work in a coach, add a postpone pattern to the client-side human

service diagram. For information, see Enabling work to be postponed and

resumed at run time.

Set how users interact with the client-side human service by setting its exposure. By default, the client-side human service is not exposed, which means that it is contained within a BPD or case type. However, you can also make it available in

Process Portal or through a URL. For information, see Exposing client-side

human services.

Optimize how users see the coaches by adding HTML meta tags to the client-

side human service. For information, see Adding HTML meta tags to client-side

human services for mobile device optimization.

Set what happens after the client-side human service completes. By default, the user sees the default page of the application that launched the client-side human service. For example, if the user started the client-side human service in

Process Portal, the user sees the Process Portal home page when the client-

side human service is complete. For information, see Navigation options for after

service completion.

Run the client-side human service and debug any errors that might occur. For

information, see Running and debugging client-side human services.
