Update merged objects

$

Hello
This question might have been asked before, but considering (hoping) that Aris evolves, maybe there are different answers.
We are in a bigger projects and we have built a role catalogue, to be used in all process modeling projects.
In order to propagate the role catalogue, we were told to merge the organisational model with all the roles into the the individual databases.

So now I have one "original" model with the roles and x copies indifferent databases.
Here comes the actual question: How does one propagate changes in the role catalogue (changes, new roles ...) to the databases?

Thanks in advance for your suggestions

Question regarding editing of model type

$

Hi,

I was going through the model type in ARIS 9 and while editing model type I observed that some model type was having options Select Symbols and Select Connections but few other model types where not having this options.

If I can give an example, if I edit a BPMN Process Diagram 1.x I can edit the 2 options but when checked for BPMN collaboration diagram I couldn't see those options.

Right now I understood that few model type cannot add extra symbols/connections other than the default ones but I don't understand how model types are considered.

I would mostly interested with the BPMN Colloboration 2.0 model type.

 

Thanks and Regards,

Chethan Rao.

Query to list all the starting, ending process interfaces in an EPC?

$

Hello, 

I have to make a query that will list to an excel file, the following:

- All the process interfaces in an EPC that have no incomming connections, this means we are talking about a starting process interface (a process interface that it's the starting element of the EPC)

and the process interfaces that have no outgoing connections, this means we are talking about the process interface as

an ending element.

 

The image attached to this post shows the type of excel that is exactly what I want according to the EPC on the image on the left side.

 

(the import thing here is to identify which images are inputs and which images are outputs)

Unable to lock models due to filter and/or privellages

Hi

To manage change and prevent multiple users overwriting maps I want to lock a batch of models. Only, for some models I receive an error message stating "unable to set lock" and the result states "Locking model .... failed. Some items cannot be accessed due to the filter or missing privileges" - does anyone know why I would receive this message?

It's important to note I am not locking or including objects, only the models and I have been able to lock the same model types with the same filter successfully. I am an ARIS Architect user and my user group has privileges to read/write all areas of the database.

Thanks in advance

“In a global economy, organizations are forced to adapt quickly to evolving technology and a fluid corporate landscape. Few of these companies have shown the capability to quickly pivot their software production or manufacturing units to consistently deliver end-user products that are of high quality and on schedule. The capabilities required of a high-performing organization to provide increasing development velocity with frequent and effective communication cannot be implemented overnight. It requires an organizational commitment to change and cultural adaptability for progress”. https://www.pwc.com/us/en/insurance/publications/assets/pwc-adopting-agile-methodology.pdf

Script to add a role in a FAD

$

Hello everyone!
I am trying to add a role inside a FAD (function allocation diagram).

So, I have n internal persons with the names "x1", "...", "xn" and I want to create a role with the name "x1 ... xn" and connect it to the function - everything with a script.
This is my piece of code:
for (i = 0; i < foldersList.length; i++){
        group = foldersList[i];
        modelList = group.ModelList(true);
        for(j = 0; j < modelList.length; j++){
            if( (modelList[j].BuildGraph(true)==true) && (modelList[j].Type() == 'Function allocation diagram')){
                object = modelList[j].ObjDefListBySymbols(internalPerson); // internalPerson = [Constants.ST_PERS_INT];
                    // Found a internal person

              
Does anyone know how I create the roles and connect them to the function ?

 

How can i obtain only the "checked relationships" of an object?

$

Hello, I need some code that will only get me the "checked" relationships, like you can see in this image below:

Because I only need the relationships that you can see in the graphic as well.

this case:

process interface named : Gerir Ordens de Trabalho

Events connected :

Pedido de Serviço Efetuado

Ordem de trabalho Resolvida

 

 

I tried:

   var eventTypes = [Constants.OT_EVT];

 var events =  proInterface[i].getConnectedObjs(eventTypes); (this gives me all the relationships that are events)

and i only want the ones who are really connected in the EPC.

 

I tried too:       var inOut = Constants.EDGES_OUT; (and Constants.EDGES_INOUT, Constants.EDGES_IN ...and the other constants but none gives the outcome i need)
                    var events =  proInterface[i].getConnectedObjs(eventTypes, inOut);

In this situation: i loose events that are connected or it stays the same 

 


LDAP integration in ARIS

Hi ,

I am trying to integrate LDAP in ARIS 9 and I am able to make a connection between ARIS and LDAP system.

Regarding the user group details,I have given the below details in the UMC Configuration

 

User Search Path: OU=Hosting,dc=dir,dc=example,dc=com

User search filter : (&(sAMAccountName=*))(&(objectclass=group)(memberOf=CN=<Usergroup>,OU=Admin,OU=Hosting,DC=dir,DC=example,DC=com))

I have activated the LDAP also.

But when tried to import the users I'm getting the message as Zero users imported. I have checked the user group and it contains 3 users.

I have also tried to run the LDAP batch file(y-ldapsync.bat) which is available in 
D:\softwareAG\ARIS9.8\server\bin\work\work_umcadmin_m\tools\bin using command prompt I get the same message.

Below is the command used to import the users,

y-ldapsync.bat -s http://my_aris_host.com -t default importUsers -u system -p manager -f (cn=userID)

Can anyone please tell me if I have missed out anything and why I'm getting zero users while importing.

 

Thanks and Regards,

Hello, I am trying to create a participant/another pool with a script and use a message to connect it to a regular start event of a BPMN.

My goal is to run this script on BPMN models and make them more complete like this:

i am trying to use the function:

                     var poolNova = oGroup.CreateObjDef(Constants.OT_BPMN_POOL, "Pool Nova", num); 
                             
                     var newPool = oModel.createObjOcc(Constants.ST_BPMN_POOL, poolNova , 1,1, true);

I run this and i see the "Pool Nova" getting created but I don't see any diference in the BPMN graphic

How can I do this?

New Java Version - Java client will not start

Hi
As I am often reading this forum to get help, when I am stuck, I would like to contribute a hint that I have been given:

Today they changed the Java version on the computers that we use to work in Aris, where we use the java client that is downloaded at run time. The effect of the Java change was, that the downloaded client would not start but get stuck after the window claiming that the client was being started.

The solution was to rename (or simply delete) the directory with the name of an IP-address under:
%USERPROFILE%\ARIS90\DownloadClient (eg C%USERPROFILE%\ARIS90\DownloadClient\192.168.1.10), because the lib-subdiretory contains jar-files that have to replaced. So a new directory was created, containing the good jar-files

Hi community, 

I'm trying to assign a model to a connection between two objects in ARIS Connect.

I configured the method and my filter, and the operation works in ARIS Architect. But in ARIS Connect, the button "Assignments" is disabled when I click on the connection. Is that normal behevior ?

Thanks in advance for your answers !

Using "Data store" in BPMN

Hello, colleagues!

Could you help me - with using objects "Data store" in BPMN?

I use an object "Data store" in the design of business-process in BPMN notation. But I can't link the object "Data store" with IT-architecture.

So my question is how I can get the list of operations that are supported the "Data store"?

Or how I can show on the process IT-systems that support the operations, so that I could then get information what systems what actions support.

Thanks.

but i get an error: 

how to use function getStart of the macro class Designer?

$

function information in ARIS help from macro class Designer: 

getStart ( Model model, Lane lane )

Determines the starting point (coordinate in X or Y direction) at which the transferred lane begins  

 

I am sure I am calling the method with a not empty lane and not empty model, but I still get an null point error.

  selection = Context.getSelectedModels(); //modelos selecionados

 if (selection.length > 0) {
        for (var i = 0; i < selection.length; i++) {
            var currentModel = selection[i];

  var modelLane = Designer.getHorizontalLanes(currentModel);
                
                
                for (var b = 0; b < modelLane.length; b++) {
                var currentLane = modelLane[b];     

 var getIn = Designer.getStart(currentModel, currentLane); //here is where I get the null point error.

 

 

Has someone used this function before? does it work properly or am I missing something here, I do this early in the code:

  var des = Designer.openModel(currentModel, false, false, false);
                var setVis = Designer.setVisible(currentModel, false);
 

Assignment symbol showing with no model assigned

$

Hello community

We have a slight issue in 9.7: many of our BPMN tasks and VACD process steps are expanding into BPMN diagrams using assignments. Now, we are considering adding Function Allocation Diagrams (FAD), assigned to some tasks to add more task information (Class diagrams used, SAP functions, etc...).

Some modelers are not interested in these FAD. 

The issue is that if the FAD is removed in the filter, the tasks assigned to a FAD (only) still show the assignment icon, and return a "No Model are assigned to the object" message. We are not really inclined using the BPMN sub-process, as we wish to keep the same logic in BPMN as when expanding VACD steps into BPMN with an assignment. 

Any suggestion? Would it make sense to avoid displaying the assignment icon when no assigned models can be reached?

Store old versions of process model for compliance

For compliance reasons we want to store old process models to use as evidence. Are there users who are doing this and what are you using? E.g. versioning mechanism of ARIS, backup of entire database, archiving process manuals, or any other solution?

Process interface

Hi all,

I would like to get a professional advice on how to use process interface. In my previous company, we only use it to connect EPC models (process flow to process flow). But in my new company, I noticed that they are using it to connect from EPC to VAC, or EPC to different FADs which I believed is not correct. Since we are having a ARIS convention review next year, I would like to confirm the correct rules regarding process interfaces.

Thanks and happy holidays! :)

 

Regards,

Julie
