IBM Cloud Orchestrator Interim Fix 1 for 2.4.0.2

APAR status

• Closed as documentation error.

Error description

• The DOC APAR will cover the following 4 changes:
  
  1) Correct the starting point for the doc topic, which is
  documented here:
  
  IBM Cloud Orchestrator 2.4.0.1>Managing orchestration
  workflows>Working with Business Process Manager>Creating a
  process application in Process Designer>Reusing processes and
  human services in a process application
  
  http://www-01.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/SS4KMC_2.4.0.1/com
  .ibm.sco.doc_2.4/t_proc_des_1a.html
  
  The parent page already contains a link to "Editing process
  applications and toolkits" but it is missing the "Reusing
  processes and human services in a process application" see
  parent page here:
  http://www-01.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/SS4KMC_2.4.0.1/com
  .ibm.sco.doc_2.4/t_proc_des_1.html
  
  2) "Reusing processes and human services in a process
  application"
  http://www-01.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/SS4KMC_2.4.0.1/com
  .ibm.sco.doc_2.4/t_proc_des_1a.html
  
  This page should also contain a reference to the
  GetOperationContext object which is in the
  Template_HumanService by default.
  
  e.g. Note: the GetOperationContext activity that is delivered
  with the  SCOrchestrator_toolkit is required as the first
  activity of the human  service to integrate with IBM Cloud
  Orchestrator correctly. For more detailed information on the
  operation context please see the IBM Cloud Orchestrator 2.4:
   Content Development Guide
  
  3) A link to the section: "Developing IBM Cloud Orchestrator
  content"  (ICO_Content_Development_Guide.pdf) will be added as
  a note the  following top level page page:
  http://www-01.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/SS4KMC_2.4.0.1/com
  .ibm.sco.doc_2.4/t_bpmextensions.html (IBM Cloud Orchestrator
  2.4.0.1>Managing orchestration workflows>Working with Business
  Process Manager)
  
  e.g. Note: for a more information on developing process
  applications and  toolkits please see the IBM Cloud
  Orchestrator 2.4: Content Development Guide
  
  4) Finally, the previous / next links should be improved in
  this section -  some pages are missing them.
  The previous / next links should navigate through the entire
  section covering the creation of the process application, the
  copying/reuse of the Template_HumanService to the new toolkit &
  editing process, the creation of a new "Hello World" process,
  making a new process available as a self-service offering
  or orchestration action and finally, on to the remaining pages
  in this section (covering Upgrade / Guidelines)
  

Local fix

• use existing doc.

  Reusing processes and human services in a process application
  After you create a process application, you can create processes
  and human services within this process application. You can also
  use the items that already exist in other process applications
  or toolkits.
