This process uses an automated advanced integration service (AIS) developed in IBM Integration
Designer to return a list of candidates whose
profile fits the criteria established by the hiring manager.
Procedure
-
In Process Designer, click the
Run icon (

In the Process Instances view, expand the Tasks section. The
Submit job requisition task is displayed, which is a task for the hiring
manager.

Submit job requisition task for the hiring manager is now closed and a new
Approve / reject requisition task is displayed for the general manager
(GM).

The service has
finished.
-
In the Process Instances view, click the Refresh icon. In the
Tasks section, the Approve / reject requisition task
for the GM is now closed. The next task in the process is the
FindCandidatesList task for Human Resources (HR), but this task started
automatically and is now closed, as shown in the Tasks section.
The FindCandidatesList task triggers an advanced integration service (AIS)
that is integrated through Service Component Architecture (SCA). The service is implemented by
calling a number of (simulated) back-end systems orchestrated in a BPEL process. This advanced
integration service was developed in IBM Integration
Designer
and, for simplicity, it was implemented within the process application. The advantage of
implementing an advanced integration service in a process application or toolkit is that source
control, deployment, and versioning is managed from the Workflow Center. A disadvantage is that the process application
or toolkit may need to be redeployed to the Workflow Center server before each playback. An alternative is
to implement the advanced integration service in a separate SCA module, but that is beyond the scope
of this sample. For more information, see Implementing an Advanced Integration service in a separate module.
