Customizing Workflow for a New Repository

To customize the workflow for a new repository, perform the following steps:

Important:
  • NEWREPO (newly created repository).
  • The corresponding data source and input map should be created in the Fulfillment Catalog Metadata Studio Project and successfully deployed into the Fulfillment Catalog enterprise.
  • Follow the naming convention of Repository name, its data source name, and the input map name as seen in the CatalogDataMap.csv file present in the $AC_HOME/samples/ directory. Ensure that there are corresponding CSV file as per the created datasource to import.

Procedure

  1. Open the $AC_HOME/samples/ CatalogDataMap.csv file.
  2. After the line RULEPARAMETER,RULEPARAMETER_DATA_IMAP,RULEPARAMETER_DATA_DS,RULEPARAMETER_DATA.csv add the new line for every new repository NEWREPO,<NEWREPO>_DATA_IMAP,<NEWREPO>_DATA_DS,NEWREPO_DATA.csv.
    Note:
    • New lines in CatalogDataMap.csv should be added as per the heading.
    • Adhere to the <NEWREPO>_DATA_IMAP format for the input map when creating it in MDM Studio.
    • Adhere to the <NEWREPO>_DATA_DS format for the data source when creating it in MDM Studio.
    • Adhere to the <NEWREPO>_DATA.csv file name format for the CSV file to be imported.
  3. For just a partial import perform the following steps:
    1. Locate the $MQ_COMMON_DIR/<ENTERPRISE_NAME>/workflow/ directory and edit the wfin26partialimportfcdatav1.xml file.
    2. Succeeding the activity SpawnSubWorkFlow_PROJECTTAG, add another activity for the new repository as shown in the following example: 
      <Activity Name="SpawnSubWorkFlow_NEWREPO">
<Action>InitiateSubFlow</Action>
<Description>Spawn the subworkflow for NEWREPO repository</Description>
<Execution>SYNCHR</Execution>
<Parameter direction="in" type="string" eval="constant" name="eventState">SPAWNWORKFLOW</Parameter>
<Parameter direction="in" type="string" eval="constant" name="ProcessID">standard/workflow/wfin26partialimportfcdatasubflowv1</Parameter>
<Parameter direction="in" type="document" eval="variable" name="InDocument">inDoc</Parameter>
<Parameter name="RepositoryName" direction="in" eval="constant" type="string">NEWREPO</Parameter>
<Parameter direction="in" eval="variable" type="string" name="ProjectTagNames">ProjectTagName</Parameter>
<Parameter direction="in" eval="variable" type="string" name="FolderPath">TempFilePath</Parameter>
<Parameter name="OutDocument" direction="out" eval="variable" type="document">inDoc</Parameter>
</Activity>
    3. Comment out the existing activity transition for SpawnSubWorkFlow_PROJECTTAG by adding "<!--" at the beginning of the transition and adding "-->" at the end of the transition. Example for the transition to be commented out is as follows: 
      <Transition FromActivity="SpawnSubWorkFlow_PROJECTTAG" ToActivity="PrepareForImport"/>
    4. Add the activity transitions as shown in the following example: 
      <Transition FromActivity="SpawnSubWorkFlow_PROJECTTAG" ToActivity="SpawnSubWorkFlow_NEWREPO "/>
<Transition FromActivity="SpawnSubWorkFlow_NEWREPO" ToActivity="PrepareForImport "/>
