Workflow

Users can modify and dynamically update the human tasks in Oracle BPM at runtime.
  1. Developer sets up the human tasks and workflows in Oracle BPM worklist through the Oracle JDeveloper at design time.
  2. The changes reflect in Oracle BPM at runtime.
  3. After the initial setup, if you need to customize or update the human tasks, you can dynamically update the human tasks in Oracle BPM at runtime.
  4. The changes reflect in the same version of the application in Oracle BPM. The changes take effect for in-progress transactions and new transactions initiated after you commit the change.
The design time at runtime feature enables the administrators to update the Oracle BPM business rules and human tasks in Oracle BPM at runtime as the business needs of the users evolve. You can update the tasks and rules without going through the hassle of understanding the developer environment and the Oracle JDeveloper design time settings.

Note:

You can still set up and update Oracle BPM human tasks through Oracle JDeveloper at design time. However, you cannot simultaneously customize the tasks through both the Oracle JDeveloper design time as well as Oracle BPM runtime.

Oracle recommends you adhere to one method to iteratively edit the human tasks.
