Understanding Orchestration Tasks

Orchestration tasks allow you to add the below components of JD Edwards EnterpriseOne Orchestrator:
  • Orchestrations: An orchestration is the master component that provides a unique name for an orchestration process. The orchestration is where you define the inputs or the expected incoming data for the orchestration. It also includes orchestration steps, which are invocations to the other components that are described in this list. When the Orchestrator invokes an orchestration, it processes the steps that are defined in the orchestration.
  • Notifications: A notification is a process that can run independent of an orchestration. It enables the system to notify users of business events in real time. The notification can contain boilerplate text and a shortcut to an EnterpriseOne application and can be configured to execute based on information from a Watchlist or an orchestration.

    Note: Notifications and Orchestration Message steps that send emails or Work Center messages also use the Workflow Kernel. If you add an Orchestration step to a Workflow that sends a message, you must have at least two Workflow Kernels available for the workflow process to complete. In Server Manager Console for the Enterprise Server, navigate to Configuration > Kernel Definitions, find Workflow Kernel (Type 13) and verify that Maximum Number of Processes is set to 2 or more.
