Service BPEL rules Completing the Create, Save As or Specialization form
About  New  Methods  Deployment  History  More...

Records can be created in various ways. You can add a brand new record to your application or copy an existing one. Existing rules can be specialized by creating a copy into a specific ruleset, against a different class or (in some cases) with a set of circumstance definitions. Data instances may be copied but do not support specialization as they are not versioned.

Based on your use case, the Create, Save As or Specialization form is used to create the record. The number of fields and available options vary by record type. Start by familiarizing yourself with the generic layout of these forms and their common fields:

• Completing the Create form
• Completing the Save As form
• Completing the Specialization form

This help topic then identifies the key parts and options that are applicable to the record type you are creating.

NOTE: Before you create a Service BPEL rule, create the Service SOAP rules and Connect SOAP rules that implement the operations for the BPEL process.

Create a Service BPEL rule by selecting Service BPEL from the Integration-Services category.

Key parts:

A Service BPEL rule has two key parts:

Field	Description
Service Package	Select the service package of the appropriate Service SOAP rules. The service package and service class together identify the Service SOAP rules to be included in this Service BPEL rule.
Service Class (Port Type)	Select the service class of the appropriate Service SOAP rules. This field also identifies the Connect SOAP rules for the Service BPEL rule: those rules for which the Namespace field contains the same value as the one specified in this Service Class (Port Type) field are included in the Service BPEL rule. Enter a Service Class value that is a valid Java identifier. See How to enter a Java identifier.

Rule resolution

When searching for a Service BPEL rule, the system filters candidate rules based on a requestor's RuleSet list of RuleSets and versions.

Circumstance-qualified and time-qualified resolution features are not available for Service BPEL rules. The class hierarchy is not relevant to Service BPEL rule resolution.
