Warehouse Builder provides a process flow editor to design dependencies between individual activities. The design can be generated into an XPDL (XML Process Definition Language) document that can be consumed by an execution engine. Out-of-the-box Warehouse Builder integrates with Oracle Workflow, a dependency engine in the Oracle database. The materials below teach you how to use the process flow editor design component. For deployment, refer to the related materials below.
