Configuring a Process

In the Getting Started tutorial, the fourth task you must do using the plug-in is to configure a process.

Before you begin

You must create a datagrid connection as described in Creating a DataGrid Connection and add a table as described in Adding a Table or import a table as described in Importing a Table. You should have an empty process in the project you had created.

    Procedure
  1. In the Project Explorer view from the Processes folder, double-click the created project and open the empty process (.bwp) file.
  2. Select an activity from the Palette view and drop it in the Process editor.
    For example, select and drop the Timer activity from the General Activities palette and the Put activity from the ActiveSpaces DataGrid palette.

  3. Drag to create a transition between the added activities.
  4. Configure the added ActiveSpaces DataGrid activities, as described in ActiveSpaces DataGrid Palette .
    Note: A datagrid connection is required when configuring the ActiveSpaces DataGrid activity. See Creating a DataGrid Connection for details on how to create a datagrid connection.
  5. Click File > Save to save the project.
What to do next

After you have configured a process, the next task is to test the process. See the Configuring a Process tutorial.
