11-24 Oracle Fusion Middleware Developers Guide for Oracle Identity Manager Figure 11–11 Legend Dialog Box ■ Markers: These elements represent a particular marking or place in the workflow. For example, the starting point, an on-page reference, or a place representing an extended workflow with more elements underneath can be represented with a marker. You can right-click a Task element and select the option to hide the responses. When you hide a response, the icon for the Response subtree is displayed to indicate that there are hidden responses. The on-page reference marker refers to other elements on the page whose relationship is not shown with links. An example of this is a response code defined for a task and for that response a response-generated task is defined. If this response-generated task has its response referring to the original task in a circular manner, then an on-page reference marker makes it easier to show the relationship. ■ Tasks: These icons are used to indicate manual and automated tasks. If a task has an event handler or an adapter attached to it for autocompletion, then it is an automated task. Otherwise, it remains a manual task. ■ Responses: These are the different color codes used for different types of response codes, such as Completes, Rejects, and Cancels. Any user-defined response code is shown with a different color code. ■ Links: These are the different color codes used for links that display the relationship or linkage between elements. Depending on the type of task the link refers to, the color code for the link is different. For example, the color code indicates whether or not the task is undo or recovery. The different types of links are: Initial Task, Response Generated Task, Recovery Task, and Undo Task. Developing Resource Objects 11-25

11.6.3.2.6 Refresh Clicking Refresh reloads the workflow to display it with default

indentations and locations for the labels and icons. It regenerates the topology to arrange the elements on the workflow by using the JGraph algorithm.

11.6.3.2.7 Save Clicking Save saves all changes made to the workflow, including all

the additions and modifications to the Oracle Identity Manager database.

11.6.3.3 Designer Page

The designer page displays the workflow with all the elements and their positions in the process flow with the help of links. This is similar to a drawing board in which the components, such as tasks and responses, can be created by using appropriate options. These components on the designer page can be further configured. On this page, the different entities of the workflow can be graphically shown along with their relationship with each other. For a newly created workflow, this page displays a start marker that indicates the starting point for the workflow process. All the objects that are added to this page are relative to this marker, which acts as a reference point.

11.6.3.4 Menu Section

The menu section consists of the menu items that represent a particular subsection of the workflow. This section is available only for Provisioning workflows. The menu items available are the following: ■ Provisioning: This is the default page displayed when the Workflow Designer application is started. ■ Reconciliation: This provides a list of tasks that are run on reconciliation events, such as Reconciliation Insert Received, Reconciliation Update Received, and Reconciliation Delete Received. These tasks are submenu items under the Reconciliation menu item. ■ Service Account: Service accounts are general administrator accounts, such as admin1, admin2, and admin3, that are used for maintenance purposes. Usually, these accounts are used to allow one system, rather than a user, to interact with another system. The model for managing and provisioning service accounts is different from standard provisioning. Service accounts are requested, provisioned, and managed in the same manner as regular accounts. Service accounts use the same resource objects, provisioning processes, and process forms as regular accounts. A service account is distinguished from a regular account by an internal flag. When a user is provisioned with a service account, Oracle Identity Manager manages a mapping from the users identity to the service account. This user is considered the owner of the service account. The tasks that are available under the Service Account menu item are Service Account Change, Service Account Alert, and Service Account Moved. ■ User Event: This provides a list of tasks that are run based on the events on users. They have the following default names: – Change User Location – Move User – Change User Type Caution: You must click Save to commit the changes. If you close the Workflow Designer main page without saving the workflow, then all the changes will be lost.
