#297 BAM and BPM Part 3

In this post, I add a rule to BAM to automatically re-order iPads, when the inventory is less than 10.

To begin with I create a web service to mimic the re-ordering.

I create the following class in JDeveloper and expose as a web service.

I deploy to my SOA AdminServer and test

Note the wsdl -
http://localhost:7001/OrderProcessingService/OrderProcessingPort?WSDL

Now open BAM in Architect mode, add a new data objetc - LowInventory with one field - Product.

Now open BAM in Active Studio mode, open the report  -

Edit -

Double click on the Action List and click Change Report Properties

Add a new Action

Edit the mapping - setting product in LowInventory to the value of Product from the ActionList.

Save the report and run in Active Viewer

Check the lowInventory Data Object

It has one row -

Now we add a rule to call the web service when this happens.

Configure the Web Service

re-test

I enter an order for 5 iPads.
I approve the order.

I select the order and click Re-order Product in the BAM report

I check the WLS console for the web service output.
