"Fueling the Workflow Engine: How to Write PL/SQL For Oracle Workflow" will help you build on your existing knowledge of Oracle Workflow. This paper is focused on how to write PL/SQL for Workflow. We'll explore procedures that implement Workflow function activities, procedures to populate document type attributes, and procedures that create selector functions, and provide annotated examples of each. Along the way, we'll examine the workflow data model, understand some of the available APIs, and see a few of the scripts provided by Oracle. I'll also point out a few "gotchas" along the way and will provide some avenues for you to explore if you want to learn more.

To get the most out of this paper, you should have some knowledge of and exposure to Oracle Workflow. Perhaps you've used the Workflow Builder tool to create or modify a process definition, or maybe you've used the Workflow Administration pages to support Workflows in your organization. Additionally, knowledge of PL/SQL is very helpful to understanding the topics we'll cover, as it will serve you well in fully grasping the concepts and examples in this paper.
