Working with EDA Event Types in BPMN Message Events

Dynamic Apps Platform : webMethods BPM Process Development Help : EDA Event Types : About EDA Event Types : Working with EDA Event Types in BPMN Message Events

Software AG Designer extends BPMN functionality to support the use of EDA event types in the following BPMN message events:

Message start events

Catching and throwing message intermediate events

Catching and throwing boundary message intermediate events

Message end events

To catch or throw a message that contains an EDA event type, you must use the EDA (For Event Triggered Processes) protocol.

In a catching message event, this is designated as the Receive Protocol.

In a throwing message event, this is designated as the Send Protocol.

In the Events Development perspective, you can:

Drag an EDA event type from the Project Explorer view onto the process canvas to create a message start event.

Drag an EDA event type onto an existing message start event to reconfigure the step to use the new EDA event type.

Tip:	When you are configuring BPMN message event step properties on the Implementation page in the Properties view, you can also access EDA event types in the local event type repository using the browse button.

Note:

When you drag an EDA event type from the Project Explorer view onto a process model in the process editor, the Integration Server Name for the step is always set to Default. This is because no Integration Server connection is required to work with EDA event types. If you want to change the Integration Server Name, you must do it manually when connected to the Integration Server.

For more information about the local event type repository and the Event Type Store, see About EDA Event Type Storage.
