| To change the Company for the Process Browser |  |
| Definitions
ERP Company | Company as defined in the User Data. Can be overruled through a Change Company action (accessible through the Options menu). This company applies to the menu navigation.
DEM Company | Company as used by the Process Browser, or also called "DEM". The DEM Company is related to a DEM Project Model. You select the DEM Company and the Project Model when you create a Web UI user profile.
The DEM Company always same as ERP company setting The DEM Company always same as ERP company setting determines whether the Process Browser automatically follows the company of the Menu Browser. The setting is available in the Options menu. By default, the setting is turned off. Allowed values
Not selected | This is the default behavior. A switch to another company (through the Change Company option in the Options menu) implies only a company switch for the ERP company. So if the Menu Browser is enabled, only the company of the Menu Browser changes. If only the Process Browser is enabled, a Change Company does not affect the DEM company. Sessions, started from the Business Process Diagram are still started from the DEM company.
Selected | The DEM Company follows the ERP company. So when you perform a Change Company, Web UI will also change the DEM company of the Process Browser. The DEM company is related to a Project Model; therefore also the correct Project Model must be selected. Web UI selects the Project Model of the new company in the following way: First Web UI tries to use the Project Model of the old company. If this Model does not exist for the new company, Web UI uses the default Project Model. If there is one Project Model available, Web UI uses this one. If there are multiple Project Models, Web UI displays a dialog where you must select the Project Model. When a new Project Model becomes active, Web UI automatically refreshes the Process Browser.
Note After you performed a Change Company, the new company (and Model) are not saved in the Web UI user profile. So when you do a re-connect, you will come back in the original companies. |
