Process
Use to select the type of BPMN process you want to create.
Oracle Business Process Composer enables you to create different types of BPMN processes depending on what work the process must perform. You can choose to create a default BPMN process or select a process pattern.
Note: You cannot change the process type after you create the process.
Default Process
Select to create a default BPMN process.
From Pattern
Select to create a new process based on a process pattern.
Manual Process
Select to create a manual process.
Manual processes are processes that require user interaction. Manual processes begin and end with none start and end events.
Asynchronous Service
Select to create a BPMN process as an asynchronous service.
Asynchronous services are processes that can be invoked from other processes or services asynchronously. In an asynchronous service, the calling process does not wait until the process completes before continuing.
Synchronous Service
Select to create a BPMN process as an synchronous service.
Synchronous services are processes that can be invoked from other processes or services synchronously. In a synchronous service, the calling process waits until the process completes before continuing.
