Customising Universal Worklist

Question

Hello All,
I am attempting to customize the Universal Worklist for MSS.  There are various buttons such as 'Launch Web Dynpro' , 'Resubmit', 'Forward' and 'Assign to me' that appears for the manager when authorizing a leave request.
Any Ideas on how I remove these buttons?
Many Thanks,
Nick

hi,
If you want to customise the UWL then, first you have to make a copy of the UWL iviews from Content Administration >Portal Content > Content Provided by SAP >End User Content >
Standard Portal Users >iViews > Universal Worklist.
From there you have select the iviews, copy it to your own folder , say 'Custom'. Apply the changes over there. Now Create an workset, set the entry points of the ivews and workset to true. Now create a role. Assign the workset to the role. Add the role to the user. Hence you can personalise your universal worklist.The below given link will explain all in detail:

However to customise, you have to make the changes in the folder Content Provided by SAP itself, and then apply it. However this is not desired, since all the users added to the Enduser and Standard user role will be affected. For further information look into the file:
