BPM polling interval

[Former Member]

Hi, does anybody know if there is a way to establish a polling interval for a BPM in XI ? for example, you can configure a polling interval for the file adapter and this enables you to read a certain filesystem directory every n minutes/seconds...

Is there a way to do the same for a BPM ?

This cuestion comes form the fact that there is no way to configure a´polling interval for the RFC adapter.

Does anybody know if this is posible ?

Hello Hans,

You can schedule a BPM..

Now BPM can only be scheduled by sending a dummy message to XI.

Here are some blogs to helo you:

/people/community.user/blog/2006/11/16/step-by-step-realize-your-bpm-scheduling-capability

THanks,

You'll be accessing a RFC synchronously, from time to time, passing some inputs and receiving response, until a certain pattern is satisfied, is that so?

Use BPM with start message, then loop of synchronous sends and wait steps, with loop end condition determined by response payload (or other inputs).

Chandra, thanks for replying

So is it correct to wrap the BPM in a Loop for example ? and that way simulate a polling interval ?

Hi,

in BPM, we have Wait step , to schedule like that , the entire IP process can wait for input , similarly if you configured the correlation the IP will wait for certain message till the condition satisfies..

thats all depending upon the IP design.
