The Dashboard tab displays the currently deployed BPEL processes and instances of BPEL processes that are currently running (in-flight) and that have recently completed. An asterisk identifies the version that is the default process. Figure 13-1 shows the Dashboard tab for the SelectManufacturer process in the SOA Order Booking application.

13.3.1 How to Monitor Deployed, Running, and Completed Processes

Use the Dashboard tab to monitor deployed, running, and completed processes. If a running process is awaiting input, use the Initiate page to provide it.

To monitor deployed, running, and completed processes, and to initiate processes:

1. Click the Dashboard tab.

2. Click a deployed BPEL process in the Name column to access a page for creating an instance and testing your process.

   If you clicked the name of a running process, the Initiate page is displayed.

3. For a running process awaiting input, provide the input needed to complete the process, as shown in Figure 13-3.
