Chapter 8 Building an Executable BPM: Managing Data and Choreography


Data transformation property sheet Transformation tab

The Transformation tab lets you edit the transformation expression.

It contains the following parameters:

Parameter Description
Input variable (Optional) Allows you to select a variable or an organization unit to represent the identification of a partner and dynamically allow the communication of its deployment address when executing the process (only available for BPEL languages) using XPATH language (only applicable to organization units). In more complex cases, the data transformation can take several variables as inputs that you describe in the Expression box. In this case, the Input Variable box is not used and the list of input variables is defined in the Expression box. You can click the Properties tool to open the property sheet of the selected object or click the Select Object tool to select a variable from all the models opened in the workspace
Input part Reference to a message part object when the input variable is typed by a message format (only available when the process language support messages in variables). You can click the Properties tool to open the property sheet of the selected part
Editor Allows you to type the transformation expression using XPath or XSLT language
