Working with business variables

Setting your business variables enables you to use Business Space powered by WebSphere.

The WebSphere® Business Modeler Publishing Server includes that Business Space powered by WebSphere. This provides an integrated user experience for business users across the Websphere Business Process Management portfolio. The Business Space is a browser-based graphical user interface that lets business users interact with content from products in the WebSphere Business Process Management portfolio. Business users can view the content they want to see in the way they want to see it by creating Composite Business Applications (CBA).

Note: This section applies to both legacy releases and current releases.

Composite Business Applications are combinations of Web applications (widgets) that provide content from multiple sources. You can create as many CBA pages as you want to provide multiple views of your business. In addition to viewing content, you can create CBAs that act on your business by, for example, assigning people to various tasks or adjusting business rules for different outcomes.

The Business Space is shipped with:

Predefined pages are populated in the Business Space when each product is installed. Each page is contextual, displaying features and artifacts that are needed for a specific business area.

Business Space also includes information from the WebSphere Business Services Fabric that you can view and modify. The following diagram shows the relationships between the Business Space framework and products in the WebSphere Business Process Management portfolio.
