Abstract

A method including: displaying operation icons representing operations to be performed, a user selecting and arranging the operation icons to define a flow of data between operations and to form a graphical representation of a process, the user specifying an operation icon as a transaction boundary node at the end of a transaction region, and compiling instructions to execute the arranged operations wherein the beginning of a transaction region acts as a roll back point in the event of an error occurring in the transaction region.
