Provided:

Use the provided WSDL to design process modules.

WSDL:

https://bpm.site.uottawa.ca:9443/teamworks/webservices/LIBMGT/LibraryManagement.tws?WSDL

The Webservice contains 15 operations:

  • getAvailableAcademicItems

This operation can be used to obtain all the available academic item(s).

  • getAvailableReferenceItems

This operation can be used to obtain all the available reference item(s).

  • getBorrowedItemsByUser

This operation gives all the item(s) borrowed by the current user.

  • getUserStatus

This operation returns the status of the user. It tells if the user account is blocked or unblocked.

  • blockOrUnblockUserAccount

This operation can be used to block user account. The same operation can also be used to unblock the blocked user account.

  • checkDueItemsBeforeBlockingUserAccount

This operation can be used to check if the user has any due item(s) before blocking his account.

  • sendConfirmationEmailAfterBorrow

This operation can be used to send an email to the borrower soon after he/she has borrowed item(s) of his/her interest.

  • sendEmailAfterBlockingTheUserAccount

This operation can be used to send an email to the user after blocking his account.

  • sendEmailAfterUnBlockingTheUserAccount

You may use this operation to send an email to the user, when his account is unblocked. If the user has returned all the due item(s) with the calculated fine amount, the blocked user account has to be unblocked. Once the user account is unblocked, he has to be notified with an unblocked email.

  • calculateFineonTheOverDueItems

This operation will calculate the fine on all the due item(s).

  • sendReminderEmail

This operation can be used to send reminder email to the user when his borrowed item(s)is/are reaching the due period.

  • setBorrowedItemsToBorrowed

This operation can be called soon after the user has borrowed item(s). This operation will set the status of the borrowed item(s) to 'Borrowed' in the DB trabsaction table. Thus these items will not be shown as 'Available' to other users.

  • setReturnedItemsToAvailable

This operation should be called soon after the user has returned the item(s). This will set the status of those returned item(s) to 'Available'. Thus these item(s) are made available for other users.

  • waitForGivenNumberOfSeconds

This operation is used to wait for given number of seconds before performing any next action. You may use this to wait for 'n' seconds before blocking user account, before sending reminder email.
