I keep getting asked this question so today I thought Id blog it so its set out there for the various search engines to find..
The worklist application is nothing more than a front end to the Oracle BPEL Workflow services, and as of Oracle BPEL 10.1.3 (SOASuite) , there are three main routes to accessing it.
- Java API
- EJB Interface
- SOAP Webservices
The first two are probably the most used interfaces, I think the worklist application uses one of these.
For more information see the documentation , specifically Section 15.12.1

Im currently on an Oracle High Availibility course and picking up a few gems which I thought Id share...
- J2EE
- When setting up J2EE state clustering you have three communication approaches for replicating state ;
- Multicast
- Peer-to-Peer
- Database
Generally Multicast is the easiest to setup and gives the best out of the box performance however with some tuning peer to peer is more efficient.
We now also have a database option where the state is saved to an Oracle database. This approach is the most reliable, however there is obviously a performance penalty for this.
