Publishing a Process Monitoring Object

This topic describes the process publishing a Process Monitoring Object.

Before you begin this task: Create a Process Monitoring Object.

Publishing the Process Monitoring Object ensures to use it as an application at run time.
Access the Process Monitoring Object and publish the Process Monitoring Object to organization.

Note:

  • Currently Quick Access Menu option is not supported in the linked topic.
  • You can publish multiple Process Monitoring Objects at a time by publishing the folder or project that contains the Process Monitoring Objects.

The Process Monitoring Object is published to the organization.

Example

In the Order-to-Cash process, once you create a Process Monitoring Object with attributes: 'OrderID', 'UnitsInStock' and 'ProductID' and publish the Process Monitoring Object, then the attributes appear as a list in the database. On instantiation of process, the corresponding columns for the attributes get filled with respective data. If you want to edit the published Process Monitoring Object (let's say delete an attribute, 'UnitsInStock', and want to add attributes, 'ProductQuantity' and 'CustomerID' to the published Process Monitoring Object), then you should republish the Process Monitoring Object.

  • If you choose not to delete the data in the database, the modifications will be updated in the database tables. You can find the following attributes in the database tables: 'OrderID', 'UnitsInStock', 'CustomerID' and 'ProductQuantity'. You may notice that 'UnitsInStock' attribute still exists in the database with old content.
  • If you choose to delete the data, then the previous data will be removed from the database tables. You may notice that the attribute 'UnitsInStock' along with the related data will be deleted from the database tables.

Runtime scenario - When the Business Process is executed, the data of that process is available in BAM through the MDM. This data is used in the Dashboard through Business Measures and KPIs.
