Introduction

The ClaimsApprovalTask sample has a BPEL process that accepts claims approval requests. The Client is the user who requests for claim approval and sends a claim forward. If the claim approval amount is greater than 1000, the process requires human interaction for the claim approval. Image RemovedIn this sample, a regional manager will be assigned a Claims Approval Task (human task) to interact with the system and approve or reject the claim. If the amount is less than 1000, no human interaction is required and the Claim Approval Process will continue.

  5. Go to to Main -> Business Processes -> Instances.
    Notice that the ClaimsApprovalProcess-1 instance has been created and is active.
  6. Click the instance ID to view the activity flow. The flow of the process depends on the value we specified for the the amount property property. If the amount is less than 1000, the BPEL process handles the approval, so the process terminates without initiating the human task. If the amount is over 5000, as we specified above, the ClaimsApprovalTask is initiated, and the process waits until it receives approval from the human task activity. To view this task, you must log in as the user who is assigned this task.
  7. Click Click Sign-out, and then log in as as regionalClerkUser.
  8. Go to to Main -> Human Tasks -> List (be sure to click the link lower down in the left navigation pane, not the one in the Manage group).
