The Basic Activities section of the BPEL Designer Palette contains icons for the following activities: Assign, Empty, Wait, and Throw. The following table describes the activities that you can add to your business process diagram from the BPEL Designer Palette.

Icon Description
Assign icon Assign. Copies the values of one variable to another, or assigns new data to variables using expressions. For details, see About the BPEL Mapper.
Empty icon Empty. Expresses no particular activity, and thus is useful when a fault needs to be caught and suppressed.
Wait icon Wait. Instructs the process to wait for a specified time or until a certain time has passed. Only one of the expiration criteria must be satisfied.
Throw icon Throw. Generates a fault from inside a business process or throws an exception within a business process. It can be used to explicitly signal an internal fault of the process.
Exit icon Exit. Terminates the execution of a business process instance.
Rethrow icon Rethrow. Rethrows the fault caught by the fault handler
Compensate icon Compensate. Terminates the execution of a business process instance.
CompensateScope icon CompensateScope. Terminates the execution of a business process instance.
