Description

The EAI steps are used to communicate with database stored procedures. You must grant execute permission to swuser on all custom stored procedures used by EAI Database steps if you are using TIBCO iProcess Engine version 11.4.0 or later.

If you are using TIBCO iProcess Engine earlier version than 11.4.0, the foreground processes connect to the database using the Oracle foreground user (swuser), whereas the Oracle background user (swpro), is used for the background processes. For example, the WIS processes connect to the Oracle database as the swuser user whereas the BG processes connected to the Oracle database as the swpro user.

If you are using TIBCO iProcess Engine version 11.4.0 or later, all the processes, regardless of whether they are background or foreground processes, connect to the Oracle database as the Oracle foreground user, which by default is the swuser user.

Procedure

See related database documentation on how to grant execute permission.
