Enable business processes for the portal

Use WebSphere Integration Developer to enable business processes for the portal environment. Map individual human tasks to special task pages in WebSphere Portal. If your process integration deployment uses a cross-cell setup, export the process WSDL and XSD files for use by other process-aware portlets and export the project EAR file to the staging server. Before you start this task, have the product documentation for WebSphere Process Server and other IBM Business Process Management products available.

WebSphere Process Server provides the runtime environment for processes that are modeled using the Business Process Execution Language for Web Services (BPEL), a Web services standard for business process composition. WebSphere Portal supports only BPEL-based business processes. To model and develop business processes that will run in WebSphere Portal environments, use the process editor provided by WebSphere Integration Developer and BPEL. For complete information about modeling and developing business processes with WebSphere Integration Developer and BPEL, refer to the documentation for these tools.
