Oracle Application Builder Cloud Service (ABCS) gives you a great way to build apps that track data, but what if your data is also involved in processes? What if you need to automate not just the data collection but also the human workflow interactions? The new integration between Oracle ABCS and Oracle Process Cloud Service (PCS) enables you to achieve this easily.
You can now create processes that are associated with ABCS business objects and interact with them directly from your Oracle ABCS user interfaces. This is a two way interaction patterns, where PCS processes can access information from Oracle ABCS business objects, and ABCS user interfaces can be created on top of these PCS processes to initiate and progress processes.
In the video example below I'm developing a basic approval flow for travel requests. The video will show you how the integration works covering:
As you'll see, all of these are quite simple and completely declarative to achieve with the visual development approach.
The combination of the products provide great value to the users of each one of those. PCS customers will love the ability to persist the data they use in their processes, and the ability to design even richer interfaces and reports. ABCS users will love the ability to automate and manage long running complex processes.
