Summary

In this chapter, we reviewed APEX Processes that allow us to implement the logic of our application, either by declarative processes or with manually coded SQL and PL/SQL processes.

APEX supports application level processes, which will run for every page in our application unless we conditioned them or defined them with an on-demand process point. In this case, they will be fired only upon a specific request.

APEX also supports page level processes, which can be fired as part of the Page Rendering or Page Processing phases. We can also use page level processes to invoke an application level on-demand process.

In the next chapter, we will discuss APEX Branches, which are responsible for the flow of the application.
