Creating a New BPEL Process

The following procedures show you how to create a new BPEL Process within ALBPM Studio.

Ensure that you have created the process where you want to create the new BPEL process.
Note: You can only edit BPEL processes from the Developer profile.

  1. Enable BPEL support.

    See Enabling BPEL Process Design and Editing for more information.

  2. In the Project Navigator, select the Process where you want to create the new BPEL process.
  3. Select File > New > New BPEL Process
  4. Provide the following information:
    Option Description
    Name The name of your new BPEL process.
    Namespace The namespace used by your new BPEL process.
    Template The template you want to use to generate the BPEL process.
    Note: If you choose the Empty BPEL Process template, no WSDL is generated for your process.
  5. Click Next.
  6. Expand the folder of the project where you want to create the new BPEL Process.
  7. Select processes
    Note: You must select the processes folder. If create the process in another folder, it is not recognized by ALBPM Studio.
  8. Click Finish.

The Wizard creates the new BPEL process and generates the corresponding WSDL file. The BPEL process is visible in the Project Navigator and Navigator views. The WSDL file is visible in the Navigator view only.

You can edit the BPEL process using the BPEL editor provided in ALBPM Studio. See Editing BPEL Processes for information.
