Business Context and Use

The Confirm Tracked Process inbound operation is used to confirm a request for the creation of a new tracked process or for the update of an existing tracked process.  A tracked process represents either a business process or a business object that is to be tracked.  A tracked process is defined by events and by tracking data.

Consider a purchasing scenario that begins with the creation of a purchase order for a material. The purchase order can be created with reference to a purchase requisition, or it can be created without reference to any prior document. If the purchase order is subject to a tracked process, the progress of the purchase order (from creation through to payment) can be tracked at line item level.If the required tracked process has not yet been created, the user can use the Maintain Tracked Process operation to create the required tracked process.  The creation of the process is confirmed via the Confirm Tracked Process operation.
