Soap Send Fault Activity

The SOAP Send Fault activity sends a SOAP fault to the client if an error occurs during processing of a SOAP request. This activity is used when the SOAP Event Source process starter handles incoming SOAP requests. The WSDL file for the request can have one or more fault messages defined for an operation. The SOAP Send Fault activity can use the fault schema to send application-specific data about the fault back to the client that made the SOAP request. This activity cannot be used if the SOAP request is one way. SOAP faults are required to...

Once the WSDL file is retrieved, the client can perform a SOAP request to invoke the web servi...

56. Which mechanism can be used to pass data between a process instance and a called sub process other than mapping from/to the caller's input/output ? Answer: This can be accomplished using job shared variables, unless in the call process activity the 'Spawn' flag is enabled in which case the called sub process is a new job and hence gets a fresh copy of the job shared variable initialized as per its configuration. A shared variable can overcome this limitation as it's scope is not limited to one job. 57. What are the three scenarios...

66. What is difference between shared variable and job shared variable ? Answer:  Both of them can be manipulated via the palette resources 'Get shared variable' and 'Set shared variable'. A job shared variable is private to one instance of job or in other words each job has a fresh copy. In the case of shared variable the same copy is shared across all job instances. It can even be persisted and can survive BW engine restarts and even shared across multiple BW engines(when deployed...

SQL Direct Activity

The SQL Direct activity executes a SQL statement that you provide. This activity allows you to build a SQL statement dynamically (using other activities), then pass the SQL statement into this activity’s input. This activity also allows you to execute SQL statements that are not supported by other activities in the JDBC palette. For example, DDL commands (for example, CREATE TABLE) are not available using any other activity. If this activity is not part of a transaction group, the SQL statement is committed after the activity completes. If this...
