Post-Installation Tasks for SAS Visual Process Orchestration

The SAS Deployment Wizard is used to install SAS Visual Process Orchestration as part of a software bundle. After the software is installed, an administrator must perform one or more setup tasks.

An administrator uses SAS Management Console to create a user definition for each person who uses SAS Visual Process Orchestration. These definitions are associated with the groups and roles. For more information, see Role-Based Access to Features.

DataFlux Web Studio is a web-based application with separately licensed modules that enable you to perform data management tasks. One of these modules, DataFlux Business Data Network, enables you to manage relationships between business terms and technical information, such as the metadata for data sources and business rules. The relationships between business terms and technical information provide an important starting point for data governance projects.

If your site has licensed DataFlux Business Data Network, then you can export relationships from SAS Visual Process Orchestration to that application. At one point during the export, you must specify the URL to the DataFlux Web Studio Server’s lineage REST service. An example URL is as follows: http://myserver.com:21079/webstudio/lineage/.

If desired, an administrator can define a default URL to the DataFlux Web Studio Server’s lineage REST service. This default URL can be selected when you export relationships from SAS Visual Process Orchestration. For more information, see Adding Links to the SAS Data Management Console Home Page.
