General information about processes
You can use many functions and types to define your processes. To control a process' behavior, you can pass a list of parameters to it.
Note: You can usually use only a restricted set of parameter types when
your process is controlled by an external application such as
Application Studio.
Processes usually run as stand-alone programs that integrate the Application Engine. In addition, you can include them in other processes. You can create much more complex processes by combining simpler ones. Stand-alone applications can only use these BI# parameter types:
-
string -
bool -
double -
int -
StringList -
OLAPElementNative -
OLAPElementXMLA
The remaining parameter types are only available in processes that you include in other processes.
Note: Processes are divided into public and
internal processes. Public processes can be used in the applications that integrate the
Application Engine. Internal processes can only be
included in other processes.
