proc_instance

The proc_instance table holds information that is specific to an instance of a version of a procedure (or sub-procedure or sub-procedure parameter template).

Note	Data that is specific to a procedure or to a version of a procedure is not held in this table. See the proc_index and proc_version tables instead.

Structure

The proc_instance table has the following structure:

TABLE proc_instance(
	node_id		number(5)		NOT NULL,
	proc_id		number(5)		NOT NULL,
	major_vers	number(5)		NOT NULL,
	minor_vers	number(5)		NOT NULL,
	pd_version	number(7)		NOT NULL,
	pi_first_step	varchar2(8),
	pi_rpa_start	number(1),
	pi_rpa_admin	number(1),
	pi_has_eis_objs	number(1),
	pi_has_subprocs	number(1))

Column	Description
node_id	ID of the node that this instance is stored on, as defined in the nodes table.
proc_id	Procedure number of the procedure associated with this instance, as defined in the proc_index table.
major_vers	Major version number of the version associated with this instance, as defined in the proc_version table.
minor_vers	Minor version number of the version associated with this instance, as defined in the proc_version table.
pd_version	Instance number of this procedure definition.
pi_first_step	Start step for this instance of the procedure.
pi_rpa_start	Flag that defines whether (1) or not (0) Remote Procedure Access (RPA) case start restrictions are set in the procedure definition.
pi_rpa_admin	Flag that defines whether (1) or not (0) Remote Procedure Access (RPA) administration restrictions are set in the procedure definition.
pi_has_eis_objs	Flag that defines whether (1) or not (0) the procedure definition contains EIS objects.
pi_has_subprocs	Flag that defines whether (1) or not (0) the procedure definition contains sub-procedure steps or graft steps.
