Business Process Entry Point Registry Page

Use the Business Process Entry Point Registry page (BPW_ENTYPNT_REG_GBL) to set up the Entry Point registry. This page is intended for administrators who need to set which process is run for a system- or site-defined transaction entry point. Entry points are used to initiate a business process from a transaction page outside of the Business Process Weaver components.

Note:

A user must have access to the first step in the Business Process Weaver definition security data to initiate the Business Process Weaver defined in Entry Point Registry. See Defining Business Process Weaver Security Options for more information.
