Simulating the Workflow Process

This task is a step in Defining a Workflow Process That Creates an Activity for a Sales Representative.

In this topic you simulate the Workflow Process, and then examine simulation results.

To simulate the Workflow Process

  1. Validate and then simulate the Workflow Process using the Process Simulator to step through the entire Workflow Process – for more information, see Process of Testing a Workflow Process.

  2. In the Siebel client, navigate to the Opportunities screen.

  3. In the Opportunities list, drill down on the opportunity named Large Opportunity to Test Workflow.

  4. Click the Activities view tab.

    A new Activity should exist and it must contain the description you defined in Defining Properties and Arguments for Workflow Process Steps. If it does, then the simulation finished successfully.

  5. Remove the modifications you made for testing:

    • Close the Simulator.

    • In the WF Process Props list, choose the Object Id process property for your Workflow Process.

    • In the Properties pane, remove the Row Id from the Default String property for the Object Id Process Property.
