Regd UWL and Guided Procedure

Hi All,
i am trying to implement one simple work flow in the GP, where two steps are there:-
1>Create Request
2>Approve Request.
I haev created collable obect, Action, block and process. I have configure the UWL for the GP fo the 2nd step as approval. I am gettign the created Item respective to the GP in the UWL.
When i am trying to click the Subject from the Table in the UWL for approving the created request i am not gettign the respective page in place of that i am getting error message like- Could not retrieve process instance: contact your system administrator.
If any one have solution or input for this please share the same.
Regards,
Deepak

Hi Deepak,
        For bringing the task to UWL you need to create a GPconnector first.I think you have created that already,though your GP is coming on UWL.Now you need to modify the .xml for UWL.
To modify the .xml file go to system admin->system config->universal worklist & workflow->UWL administration->select GP connector->select UWL GP Config->click on download config.
download the .xml file and add your GP connector coding there.Below I am giving the modified .xml file.Please do the changes.

  • Callable object and Guided procedures

    Hi all,
    Where we use callable objects? i want to know about the basic of callable object and guided procedure?
    sorry if my question is very silly

    Hi again
    Callable objects can be many types, including applications (like web dynpro), services (e.g. web services), remote function modules, intercative and composite forms, etc.
    The GP framework comes with a set of ready-to-use COs that you can see when you open the Create Callable Object wizard. Here is a list of the so-called predefined COs in GP:
    http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/en/0f/619fd378a641b29386063019c24fc4/content.htm
    Since applications and services themselves are of various types, here is a link for creating COs of those types in GP design time:
    http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/en/da/a680415dc6050de10000000a1550b0/content.htm
    You can also implement your own callable object type, but here you have to use the NW Developer Studio, apart from the GP worksets. Here is a link to give an overview:
    http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/en/43/e74cb156b60a29e10000000a11466f/content.htm
    Finally, here is a document that gives general info about exposing applications as COs and links to various areas, connected to CO implementation and usage in GP:
    http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/en/08/d88041a17e060de10000000a1550b0/content.htm

  • Calling Shell Scripts in Business Workflow and Guided Procedures

    Hi *,
    is it possible to call shell scripts in business workflow and guided procedures? would need further documentation (how to, blog,...) about this issue.
    Thx in advance,
    Rene.

    Hello,
    Workflows consist of tasks.
    A task executed an object's method.
    Methods are written in ABAP.
    In the method you can code whatever you like, including code to execute shellscripts.
    How to do this is not really a workflow question, I would suggest asking in an ABAP forum on how to write a function module to do this in a pure ABAP context. Then it's just a matter of inserting it into a method for use in your WF.
    Cheers,
    Mike

  • Importance of UWL in Guided Procedures.?

    Hi,
    I need to know the importance of UWL (Universal Worklist) in our Guided Procedures,
    One thing that I can visualize is that, All the actions pending for a user can be seen here.
    But that we can see in respective workcenter also.Then why do we need UWL seperately?
    Also what if I want to <b>terminate</b> some task inbetween,
    <b>Is there any option for removing tasks from the list?</b>because all the tasks, with the status as <b>pending</b> or <b>running</b> remains there until they are completed.
    Please share....
    Thanks

    Hi,
    You have to create new system for GP.
    Go to System admin - System config - UWL
    click on New button
    Fill in the details as below:
    System Alias: *  SAP_LocalSystem
    Connector Type: GuidedProceduresConnector
    Rest of the fields are optional
    In the UWL - Configuration page, at the bottom, click on the link "Click to Configure Item Types and Customize Views Using a Wizard" , I think u can take it from there..
    Add the UWL iview (pcd:portal_content/com.sap.pct/every_user/general/iViews/com.sap.netweaver.bc.uwl.iviews/com.sap.netweaver.bc.uwl.uwl_iview)to ur role.
    You can see all ur GP tasks in UWL.
    Good luck

  • Importing Development Component - Webdynpro and Guided Procedures

    Hi All,
    I created a development component project of type  "Webdynpro". I created callable Object in guided procedures and the Process is working fine. I want to import the same project into another Nwds (another workspace).
    I tried the following steps.
    1. File - import - Multiple Existing project into workspace.
    2. Imported the DC.
    I have already added all the Gp jarfiles. But after importing, and rebuilding the project, it gives me only webdynpro and components,views.. It is not showing me as a normal webdynpro project. It is not showing me the GP Api's, the "USED DC's". which i created in the other project.
    When i am creating a new project, it is working fine.Can anyone please help me in resolving this issue? How can i import a DC (gp) into webdynpro?
    Thanx and Regards,

  • Life work events and Guided Procedure

    Hi,
    We have installed ESS business package on EP7 portal and connected to ECC 6.0. We want to configure Life and Work Events (LWE). When a user clicks on Life and Work Events Tab > First Day, Marriage, Benefit for that matter any link on that page, It takes users to Folder selection page of guided procedure to select the process.
    The question is that is it suppose take a user to respective guided procedure as First Day or etc. rather than asking user to select the guided procedure process from folder.
    Thanks,
    Guest user
    Edited by:  on Mar 21, 2008 12:40 AM

    If default configuration takes to actual process that make us feel we are missing something in configuration.
    Lakshmi, Do you have any clue as what is missing to be configured since it is taking us to folder selection page?
    Thanks for your help,

  • EHP1 and Guided Procedure

    Hi all,
    In EHP1, the Guided Procedure was fully replaced by Galaxy? I've saw that only Web Dynpro GUI can be used. Does anybody know if have plan to support Visual Composer too?
    Best regards

    Hello Isias,
    please note that it depends on your selection before downloading the preview version to have GP available:
    In [Download selection|https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/webcontent/uuid/20877bcc-bb51-2b10-aa8b-8308ed488199] selct the first Option "Composition Environment (contains Java EE).
    The GP roles are available in the UME but you have to assign them to the respective User via [user admin|http://localhost:50000/webdynpro/dispatcher/sap.com/tcsecumewdumeadmin/UmeAdminApp].
    Enter your user, mark it and select modify in the left down "Details of User...". In available roles, select "all Data Sources" as search criteria, enter gp and select go. Mark all the roles you will need and press add. Don't forget to save this assignment.
    Let me know if this solves your problem, as with the check of the original installation, the preview version in SDN is based on, the roles are available.
    Kind regards

  • Regd. workflow and incompletion procedures

    Hi,
    can workflows or events be triggered from incompletion procedures?  for eg. when a sales order is incomplete and saved, a workflow should start, which handles the process...
    Regards,
    Vijay

    Hi~ vijay.
    I'm not sure that there is a workflow for it.
    but, I think it's possible.
    why don't you try like this.
    1) make your own workflow templete.
    2) find some place you want to code... I mean some kind of
       user exit things.
       in case of sale order.
       Edit user exit 'userexit_save_document'.
       check some field for incompletion procedure.
       for example>
    if vbap-taxm1 eq ' ' or
            vbap-werks eq ' ' or
           .... in case of some condition field for
                incompletion procedure is imcompleted
           call function 'SWE_EVENT_CREATE'   
           .... call workflow ....
         endif.
    But, There is a lot of impletion log for sales order, so when an order is created
    and saved with impletion log, it calls an workflow.
    and somebody get an workitem.... I think it's a little bit cumbersome.
    In T-code <b>'V.02'</b>, you can check all the incompletion documents.
    why don't you use v.02
    I wish I could help you.

  • UWL Guided Procedures and Substitution Rules functionality -  how possible?

    We are using Guided Procedures with Custom Web Dynpro objects and need to utilize user/role substitution that is easily enabled in other AdHoc tasks using 'Manage Substitution Rules.  Unfortunately when creating and turning ON a substitution rule in the UWL all Guided Procedure Tasks are excluded and do not show up in the substituting person's UWL.
    Does anyone have any ideas of how we can utilize Substitution Rules in UWL for all Guided Procedure tasks/steps?
    Thanks in advance
    -SteveW

    Hi SteveW!
    The situation you're facing is the normal behavior from GP in relation with substitution feature of UWL.
    Unfortunately GP doesn't support substitution as the other UWL connectors do.

  • SAP Workflow vs. Guided Procedures

    Hello experts,
    could anyone explain the differences between SAP workflow and Guided Procedures???
    I know that workflows are just compatibel with a ABAP Stack. Is there a document which compares both process technologies???

    Can I use the Visual Composer to create the UI for a workflow???
    Thank you very much

    Hi Martin!
    Because my tutor and my professor want to know, if it's possible to start a GP-process from SAP WebFlow automatically if a certain step is reached in WebFlow.
    I have a process as an example and in that process company A works with Workflow and company B, who is responsible for maintenance of a machine works with Guided Procedures.
    When a machine is damaged a Guided Procedure process of company B should be started and after reparing and end of GP the SAPWorkflow should continue.
    The normal way via iporting a WSDL file isn't possible because SAP WebFlow doesn't support SOAP Binding which is necessary for Guided Procedures.
    However in Guided Procedure it's possible to create an URL of a process instantiation. And if you call that URL in your Browser with parameters "process.template.id = xxxxx" and "process.autostart=t" the process will be started automatically.
    So for the first, I just want to call the URL from SAP WebFlow to trigger the GP process. (the handler customizing is done correctly) So I thought with transaction "wf_extsrv" it's possible if you refer to the URL of the process instantiation with process.template.id and process.autostart=t.
    Then generate a task and start the GP-process with the activity referring to the task. That would be a first step to show if it's possible.
    If yes.
    Then I can attend to pay attention to the export and import parameters.
    Can you follow me?
    I hope so.
    I think that post is much too long.
    If you want I can write you my ideas exactly via email.

  • Guided Procedures vs ISR

    Hi
    We are trying to automate our internal form processes using SAP adobe interactive forms. These forms must be available online and must be routed to the relevant approvers and processors on submission.
    Can anyone tell the difference between ISR and Guided Procedures and which one is the best to use.
    Regards,
    Michael Mayisana

    Hi Micheal,
    Please check the answers for your queries. I have adding all the info i have.
    1. It doesnt exactly mean that the GP are only for Offline Interactive forms., they r for online too. but better suited for CAF appl. For this case we need, we will take the help of CAF GP i.e. Composite appplication framework GP. CAF GP is a framework for modeling and managing workflows using simple and user-friendly tools. As a part of the Composite Application Framework (CAF), GP enables access to multiple backend systems, consistently combining different types of services and applications into processes. In addition, GP supports collaboration, ad-hoc items, and offline task management using interactive forms. It provides role-based access to tools and resources and guidance through the workflows at runtime, thereby helping end users to easily identify and complete their tasks
    2. As to my implementation the form cannot be rendered on the front-end without any extra web-dynpro development when using GP. Like ABAP Webdynpro iviews can than be integrated with portal. and hence portal is used as front end.
    Pls chk the below link
    https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/e0957cb6-5103-2a10-6d9d-a0a4d68c8bf1
    3.Example as such , might be a general MSS/ ESS implementation but check out this blog for such scenario

    Hope this helps you and hope i was clear .

  • Question to Guided Procedures

    Hello,
    in our company I'm evaluating WFM-Tools.
    I have two questions about Guided Procedures:
    (1) Is it possible to delete entities of a running process in the CAF Guided Procedures? To stop a process is no problem, but I didn't solve to delete them completely.
    (2)Is it possible to escalate dates in a process?
    I would be very glad, when someone give me some links, informations, documents e.g. for implementing Composite Applications and Guided Procedures.
    Thanks a lot

    In addition to the link that Srini gave, you can check the <a href="http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw2004s/helpdata/en/39/198141f906040de10000000a1550b0/frameset.htm">GP documentation</a>.
    To your questions - the functionality to delete process instances is not yet available but will come soon.
    Changing the process due date is possible using the so-called process control items. See the following <a href="http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw2004s/helpdata/en/42/cec68872c56baee10000000a1553f6/frameset.htm">docu</a>.
