How to trigger BPM process from SAP UI5

[former_member190063]

Hi,

Is it possible to trigger the BPM process from SAP UI5 application.

For example : When User submits a request in UI5 application, it should trigger the bpm process. In this case, how the integration works.

My Flow is like BPM(1st Process) -> UI5 —> BPM(2nd Process)

Please share some examples.

Hello Karthik,

There are two aspects to your question. On the one hand side, you can use custom SAPUI5 user interfaces in BPM:

SAPUI5 Custom UI with BPM OData Service

On the other hand side, you can start a BPM process with a web service call:

Starting a Process

Hi Frank,

Instead of starting a process with a web service call, Shall I use BPM odata?? Correct me if am wrong.

Because I have two process in my BPM. When I execute one process manually, it opens an UI5 application. Here user fill the form and submit. Upon submitting, I need to trigger my second process in BPM . My doubt is how to trigger my second process in BPM from UI5 application

Hello Karthik,

Yes, you can trigger your second BPM process via OData as well:

BPM OData Service for Starting BPM Processes

I am more familiar with the web service API but OData should work equally fine.
