Creating a state machine

To create a new business state machine, follow these instructions.

  1. In the workbench, switch to the business integration perspective.
  2. If you have already created a module, select it in the business integration view.
  3. From the main menu, click File > New > Business State Machine.
  4. In the New Business State Machine window, specify a module, a folder and a name for the new state machine. If you want to create a state machine without an interface, click Finish. Otherwise, click Next.
  5. In the Select an Interface window, select an appropriate interface and operation to start the state machine, and then specify the necessary correlation properties. When you are done, click Finish.
This creates a state machine, and launches it in a new state machine editor. Click on any of the following links to configure it.
