Hi Sri,

PFB answers :-

1)is it required to create MM,OM while using Action Concept in Process integration Scenario.

yes

2)What is the difference between manual Creation of Interface?

Not much difference just an add on as it provides you with an overview of the process and the process flow as it summarizes all objects that are involved in the process together like Interface objects, mapping objects and executable integration processes from the Enterprise Services Repository etc.we can can access all of these objects from one object. and only disadvantage i can see is It only provides a limited template in creating repository objects.

Hope this answers your query..!!

Hi Sri,

Apart from referring above link,the advantages of using action objects is that this approach is more model based approach wherein you model the process flow and then go for implementing the actual scenario.

If you want to use Process Integration Scenarios, you need to create actions.

then in ID, it is possible to configure a scenario using "Tools"->"Apply Model from ESR" and import the ProcessIntegrationScenario to create the scenario, instead of Tools->Configuration Wizard->Internal Communication, to create the scenario.

Let us now if you still have some doubts on this...!!

Hello Sri,

Developments are same.

Its a simplified model and easy to configure.

Perforamce wise same as botth normal and Process Integration scenarios are same.

Hi Sri,

1) You can create MM and OM for two operations and assign it to two actions in process integration scenario.

2) When you create process integration scenario then you need to create actions, actually with in the action we refer service interface operation. design perspective process integration scenario give you more graphical representation of the scenario and you can quickly create the directory objects based on process integration scenario.Performance wise both same there is no impact on performance.

Hello Sri,

Action objects when you use model configurator(process Integration Scenario) for ICO/Classical scenario objects.

You can create model and use the same in ID.
