To Initiate the Event System Demonstration Workflow from the Buyer Workbench

1. On the Buyer system, enter the following URL in a web browser to access the Workflow Demonstration web page:

<webagent>/wf_demo.home

<webagent> represents the base URL of the web agent configured for Oracle Workflow in your Web server. See: Setting Global User Preferences, Oracle Workflow Administrator's Guide.

Choose the Events: Buyer Workbench link to display the Buyer Workbench web page.

Alternatively, you can enter the following URL to directly display the Buyer Workbench web page:

<webagent>/wf_eventdemo.create_order

Attention: These are both secured pages, so if you have not yet logged on as a valid workflow user in the current web session, you will be prompted to do so before the page appears.

2. Enter a unique order number for the purchase order. The order number becomes the event key for the B2B Purchase Order event that is raised.

3. Select an item number.

4. Enter an item description of 40 characters or less.

5. Enter a deliver date in the format DD-MON-YYYY.

6. Enter the total amount for the purchase order. The amount should be a number without formatting.

7. Select a role name as the order requestor.

8. Choose the Submit button to submit the purchase order and display the Events: Track Order page. You can also choose the Cancel button to return to the Workflow Demonstrations page without submitting the purchase order.

9. In the Events: Track Order page, choose the Queue Messages link to display the Event System Local Queues page and review the messages on the Business Event System queues. See: Reviewing Local Queues.

10. Choose the Workflow Monitor link to view the progress of the Buyer: Top Level PO workflow process in the Workflow Monitor. See: Workflow Monitor, Oracle Workflow Administrator's Guide.

11. Choose the Process Order link to run the background engine and process the deferred activity so that the buyer workflow can continue processing the purchase order.
