2 Use cases
- Implementing the Save to Topic features
Using Topic Management in Oracle Empirica Signal, an end user can create, display, edit, and move topics through a workflow. Topics can have attachments such as files, graphs, tables, URLs, or notes. Topics can also contain one or more actions which can also have attachments. - Save to Topic link
Your application can incorporate a Save to Topic link into its pages, similar to how Oracle Empirica Signal includes the link above the Data Mining Results Table. If the user clicks the Save to Topic link, the application displays a dialog box and calls the Oracle Empirica Topics web service. The Oracle Empirica Topics web service initializes the values and saves an attachment containing the application's data to the specified topic or action. - Save to Topic dialog box
When the user clicks Save to Topic, the Save to Topic dialog box appears. In the Save to Topic dialog box, the user can save to an existing topic or action, or to a new topic. - Select Topic dialog box
From the Save to Topic dialog box, the user can browse for existing topics. From the Browse link, the Select Topic dialog box appears where the user can select a topic or can view all properties for available topics. - Save to topic with topic templates
If topic templates have been created by an Oracle Empirica Topics administrator, and they are visible to a work team to which the user belongs, then the Topic template drop-down list should appear in the Save to Topic dialog box. - Save to topic and work teams
An Oracle Empirica Topics administrator can configure a topic workflow configuration such that the topics are visible to one of the following: - Browse work teams
In the Save to Topic dialog box, users can browse work teams. The user clicks Browse to navigate to the Browse Work Teams dialog box (Figure 2–7) and can select a work team. When the user selects a work team and clicks OK, the work team appears in the Visible to work team drop-down list. - Saving attachments
In the Save to Topic dialog box, if the user clicks OK, the attachment is saved to the specified topic or action. - Viewing topics
The Topics tab shows a table of all the topics that are accessible by the user.
