I have just stated with activiti bpm and took a look at the user guide http://www.activiti.org/userguide/
I realised the bpm framework is mainly design for real time business process where the user interacts with the UI/system and performs the workflow actions.
I have a loan system, where the applicant's loan request is submitted on a daily basis, and the credit rating is not known until a day end batch jobs runs.
Is there anyway, I can wake the workflow "process" up, and checks if the applicant rating is greater than a certain value and automatically approves the loan request?

Optimus,
this is typically done with a timer event. The documentation section "8.7.1. Asynchronous Continuations" contains an example "Wait until next business day".
