Viewing Activity History
The Activity History page shows information about the activities executed for a workflow.
Specify the activity type and activity status of the activities you want to view. All activity types and statuses are selected by default. To search for specific activities, deselect any activity types and statuses you do not want to view. At least one activity type and one activity status must be selected for a search to be performed.
- To view details about the definition and current status of an activity, select the activity name link in the Activity column.
- To send e-mail to the performer of a notification, select the user link in the Performer column.
If you have workflow administrator privileges, you can use the activity administration icons to perform administrative operations on notification or process activities that are not yet complete.
Note: The reassign icon appears only for notification activities that are not yet complete. Additionally, you cannot reassign a notification from the Status Monitor if the Expand Roles option is selected for the notification or if it is a voting notification that tallies the recipients' responses. See: Voting Activity, Oracle Workflow Developer's Guide.
- To suspend a process activity that is not yet complete, select the suspend icon in the Suspend/Resume column. All further processing for the process is suspended until the process is resumed.
Note: If you suspend the root process for a workflow, all subprocesses for the workflow are suspended as well.
Note: The suspend icon appears only for process activities that are not yet complete.
- To resume a suspended process activity, select the resume icon in the Suspend/Resume column. Processing for the process is resumed and any activities that were transitioned to while the process was suspended are now executed.
Note: If you resume the root process for a workflow, all subprocesses for the workflow are resumed as well.
Note: The resume icon appears only for process activities that are suspended.
If you have workflow administrator privileges, you can use the activity administration buttons to perform administrative operations on any activities that are not yet complete.
- To skip an activity and force the workflow to transition to the next activity, select the activity and select the Skip button. In the Skip page, enter the result value to assign to the activity if required.
Note: You cannot skip a suspended process activity. You must resume the process before you can skip it.
- To retry an activity, select the activity and select the Retry button.
Note: You cannot retry a suspended process activity. You must resume the process before you can retry it.
If you have workflow administrator privileges and you are viewing a workflow that is not yet complete, you can use the workflow administration buttons to perform administrative operations on the workflow.
- To view the status diagram for the workflow, select the View Diagram button.
- To change the values of any item attributes, select the Update Attributes button. In the Update Workflow Attributes page, enter the new values you want.
Note: You cannot update attributes of type event. However, you can select the event message link to view the event message details.
- To rewind the workflow to an earlier activity stage, select the Rewind button. In the Rewind page, select the activity you want from the list of activities that the Workflow Engine has reached. Oracle Workflow stops processing at the current activity and resumes processing at the specified activity.
Note: You cannot rewind a suspended workflow. You must resume the workflow before you can rewind it.
- To suspend the workflow, select the Suspend Workflow button. All further processing for the workflow is suspended until the process is resumed, and all subprocesses are suspended as well.
- To resume the workflow if it is suspended, select the Resume Workflow button. Processing for the workflow is resumed, and all subprocesses are resumed as well. Any activities that were transitioned to while the workflow was suspended are now executed.
- To cancel the workflow, select the Cancel Workflow button. In the Cancel page, select Apply. The Workflow Engine sets the status of the workflow to #FORCE, and all processing for the workflow is canceled and cannot be restarted.
