This section describes how a process run definition can be implemented.
What does this section cover?
In order to implement a process run definition, you need to:
- Create a new data object class extending com.crm.dataobject.ViewObject class.
- Create five new summary pages.
- Create a new data entry page.
- Create a new user interface class extending com.crm.process.processrun.CRMUIProcessRunDefinitionBean class.
- Create a new XML utility class extending com.crm.businessobject.processrun.ProcessRunDefinitionXMLUtilBean class, to save and load any criteria, action inputs and/or scheduling settings.
- Create the process class needed to execute the process run definition.
- Define the process in modules metadata file.
In the example below, we will implement a Rewards Settlements Run Definition which is used to evaluate customer events and spend transactions in order to debit or credit the related Organizational Unit's Accounts Receivable. The accounts receivable to be debited and/or credited are retrieved based on a set of criteria defined by the user. Rewards Settlements Run Definition, just like any other process run definition, can be executed ad hoc or on a recurring basis, based on the scheduling settings.
1. Create Data Object Class
The new data object class must extend com.crm.dataobject.ViewObject class and must implement both getViewMandatoryFields() and getAssociatedObjects() methods. The associated objects will be used by setMandatoryFields() method of com.crm.dataobject.ViewObject for mandatory field calculation. This method calculates the associated objects' mandatory fields and along with the ones defined in getViewMandatoryFields() method it constructs the new data object's defaultMandatoryFields linked hash map.
A com.crm.process.utilities.SchedulerTask object must be defined as well, in order for the process run definition to be handled by the scheduler mechanism.
public class RewardSettlementRunDefinition extends ViewObject {
/**
*
*/
private static final long serialVersionUID = 1L;
private CRMDOProcessRunDefinition processRunDefinition;
private SchedulerTask schedulerTask;
//input settings
private RewardSettlementType rewardSettlementType;
//criteria
private Set<RewardSchemeCriterion> schemeCriteria;
private Integer daysAgo;
public CRMDOProcessRunDefinition getProcessRunDefinition() {
return processRunDefinition;
}
public void setProcessRunDefinition(CRMDOProcessRunDefinition processRunDefinition) {
this.processRunDefinition = processRunDefinition;
}
public SchedulerTask getSchedulerTask() {
return schedulerTask;
}
public void setSchedulerTask(SchedulerTask schedulerTask) {
this.schedulerTask = schedulerTask;
}
public RewardSettlementType getRewardSettlementType() {
return rewardSettlementType;
}
public void setRewardSettlementType(RewardSettlementType rewardSettlementType) {
this.rewardSettlementType = rewardSettlementType;
}
public Set<RewardSchemeCriterion> getSchemeCriteria() {
return schemeCriteria;
}
public void setSchemeCriteria(Set<RewardSchemeCriterion> schemeCriteria) {
this.schemeCriteria = schemeCriteria;
}
public Integer getDaysAgo() {
return daysAgo;
}
public void setDaysAgo(Integer daysAgo) {
this.daysAgo = daysAgo;
}
@Override
protected LinkedHashMap<String, CRMDO> getAssociatedDataObjects() {
LinkedHashMap<String, CRMDO> dataObjects=new LinkedHashMap<String, CRMDO>();
dataObjects.put("processRunDefinition", getProcessRunDefinition());
return dataObjects;
}
@Override
public LinkedHashMap<String, String> getViewMandatoryFields() {
LinkedHashMap<String, String> viewMandatoryFields = new LinkedHashMap<String, String>();
viewMandatoryFields.put( "rewardSettlementType", "key_reward_settlement_type");
return viewMandatoryFields;
}
public class RewardSchemeCriterion extends CRMDO {
/**
*
*/
private static final long serialVersionUID = 1L;
private CRMDORewardScheme scheme;
private String schemeID;
public CRMDORewardScheme getScheme() {
return scheme;
}
public void setScheme(CRMDORewardScheme scheme) {
this.scheme = scheme;
}
public String getSchemeID() {
return schemeID;
}
public void setSchemeID(String schemeID) {
this.schemeID = schemeID;
}
}
2. Create Summary Pages
Five new summary pages need to be implemented in order to give the user all the necessary information about the process run definition, its runs, and their results.
2.a. Process Run Definition Summary Page
The first summary page to create is the process run definition summary page, which is the main summary page that will display all the process run definition records.
As you can see, two drill-down summary pages must be created and included in the main summary page: process runs and previous version pages.
2.a.i. Process Runs Drilldown Summary Page
Process runs summary page shows all the process runs created by a specific process run definition.
As you can see, two drill-down summary pages must be created and included in process runs summary page: processed successfully and processed with errors pages.
2.a.i.1. Processed Successfully Summary Page
Processed successfully summary page shows all the entities that were processed successfully by a specific process run.
Processed with errors summary page shows all the entities that their processing, by a specific process run, failed.
2.b. Previous Version Summary Page
Previous version summary page shows the previous version of a specific process run.
3. Create Data Entry Page
A new data entry page must be implemented to give the user to create, view, modify, delete or apply other operations on a process run definition.
Note that it is recommended that you use the available global components for the process run:
- Name
- Alternative Code
- Description
- Life Cycle State
- Version
- Log Information
- Scheduling settings
4. Create User Interface Class
The new user interface class must extend com.crm.process.processrun.CRMUIProcessRunDefinitionBean class.
Note that:
- When creating a new process run definition, the process and module attributes to set on the new data objects must be the same as the ones defined in modules metadata file.
- setMandatoryFields() method calculates the associated objects' mandatory fields and along with the ones defined in getViewMandatoryFields() method it constructs the new data object's defaultMandatoryFields linked hash map.
- To submit the process run definition to the scheduler for execution, use submit(CRMDOProcessRunLog processRunLog) method of com.crm.process.processrun.CRMUIProcessRunDefinitionBean class. This method uses process run definition's module and process attributes to retrieve the EJB and method name to call, from modules metadata file. For more information on how to schedule a process run, go to Schedule a Process Run.

6. Create Process Class
The new process class must extend com.crm.process.CRMProcessRunBean class.
Note that:
- A method having only one input parameter, the process run log ID, must be created. This method will be used to implement any business functionality required after the process run definition submission.
- If a multithreaded process is needed, please follow the instructions on how to Implement a multithreaded process.

To define the process in the modules metadata file:
- Create a new process entry under the right module (module id must be equal to the process run definition's module attribute) and give your process the right id (process id must be equal to the process run definition's process attribute).
- Set the value of <ejbname> to the name of the process class you created (step 4). Use the name defined in EJB binding file, after prefix 'ejb/' (ibm-ejb-jar-bnd.xml).
- Set the value of <methodname> to the name of the method used for executing the process run definition (step 4.1)
