JBoss BPM Suite Rewards Demo

This is the HR employee rewards demo that provides examples of human task integration, form designer and a custom email work item handler.

There are four options available to you for using this demo; local, Openshift Online, Red Hat CDK OpenShift Enterprise and Containerized.

Option 1 - Install on your machine

1. Download and unzip.

2. Add products to installs directory.

3. Run 'init.sh' or 'init.bat' file. 'init.bat' must be run with Administrative privileges.

4. Start JBoss BPMS Server by running 'standalone.sh' or 'standalone.bat' in the /target/jboss-eap-6.4/bin directory.

   # To view automated email notifications, start provided server as root/admin (see Notes below):

   $ sudo java -jar support/fakeSMTP.jar 
   

   In fakeSMTP GUI click 'START SERVER' button or you will get 'Could not connect to SMTP host' errors. This does not prevent the process from working, it just fails to send an email notification.

Notes

This project is pre-loaded into the JBoss BPM Suite, after starting it you can login, examine the rule, process, and data model from within the various product components.

After claiming the user task as a manager (to approve or deny the award), if task completion takes longer than 1 minutes it will te reassigned back into the group so other managers can claim it. The short time frame of 1 minutes is for demo purposes, should talk about days to complete instead as if a manager that claimed a task got sick and failed to complete the claimed task.

Optional: A task notification has also been setup to alert the members of the group responsible if a task sits longer than 2 minutes without being started (claimed). This is an email notification which you can view using the provided simple java SMTP server 'fakeSMTP.jar' (from https://nilhcem.github.io/FakeSMTP), just start as root/admin user to catch sent notifications in the mailbox window provided:

$ sudo java -jar support/fakeSMTP.jar 

In fakeSMTP GUI click 'START SERVER' button or you will get 'Could not connect to SMTP host' errors. This does not prevent the process from working, it just fails to send an email notification.

There is a workshop available online that will show you how to build this demo from scratch.
