A workflow (and the limits of the 'module' concept?)

Often, choices regarding the best shots (when shooting in difficult conditions, e.g. contre-jour) are determined by which picture better supports adjustments. You might want to check if you get better results by lightening the shadows on picture A or darkening highlights on picture B. So the first feature I thought would be cool, is to make adjustments in Develop while seeing two pictures side by side. You can do this using 'Compare' in Library and the quick develop panel, but after pressing those buttons a number of time, you lose track of the intensity of the effect applied (a basic soution would be to enable sliders in quick develop). I also understand that the picture displayed in develop is not the same as the one in Library? It seems to me that noise patterns tend to differ when you switch modules.
Processing also affects ratings, positions in stacks, etc.. With a substantial batch of similar shots, which differ by the processing you've applied, it's useful to do basic management while in develop. Unfortunately the filmstrip is bit underpowered at the moment. It responds differently than the gallery. I can't manage to alter the filmstrip view modes the same way I do it in the gallery, etc. I can have a big filmstrip with big thumbnails, but I can't display more rows. It'easy to get lost in your pictures in develop if they're superficially similar (when not at 100%), and if you switch to the gallery, you then might lose the picture you were developing. A sort of mini-gallery feature could be useful. You could for example toggle a mini 'Survey' view while working on your photos
This could be extended to all modules. Mini-gallery could be useful in Print and Slideshow too(basically, we already have mini-develop in Library). I think Lightroom saves time by streamlining the workflow a lot (it automatically gives sets of related tools), but in situations where no module offers all the tools, you find yourself constantly changing, and that can be confusing. Maybe the SDK will offer completely customizable Modules to the daring user?

2-up (at least) compare mode in Develop, multi-row film strip, and film strip cells that are the same as grid-mode cells but with separate options have been on my request list for a while.

FM to read the different steps in workflow and the status at each step

Hi All,
Is there any FM in SAP which gives the detail roadmap of the steps taken in a workflow and the diffrent status or decision at each step.
I am looking for something like what you see when you click on the "STARTED WORKFLOW" in the business workplace outbox.
Which shows up the "steps in the process so far " and the decision and the agents for each of them.
Thanks,
Charan.

Hi,
You can get the status according to the task. please check with FM "SAP_WAPI_GET_WI_DELTA".

Report for outstanding workflows and the agents responsible

I need a report that shows all leave request workflows , with userid who created them and approver (agent), and approver's org unit and personnel number.
is there a standard SAP report that can show that? or I need to develop one?
I was looking at the SWI2_FREQ, this report shows the leave request workflows and userid who created them, but it does not report on the agent.
Regards,
Tiberiu

Hi
I think by making use of SAP_WAPI_WORKITEMS_TO_OBJECTS you can get all the workitems who created the leave wokritems.

SAP Business Workflow and The Workflow Reference Model

Hi Experts,
I try to map the Business Workflow with the Workflow Reference Model of WfMC.
Interface 3 represents the communication of SAP's Workflow Engine with "Invoked (external) Applications".
My Questions are:
- which applications, tools can be invoked (Webservices, Group Ware Products)
- and which component realizes Interface 3?
(can I say that interface 3 is realized with different steps like web-activity,
or the normal activity-step (WebFlow Service Handler) ? )
Or is there a certain technology that is representative for realization of interface 3 ? e.g. WfXML or SOAP?
Thanks in advance

I recently signed on with iCloud. I find that the prompts interrupt my workflow and the costs of this feature for someone with 200 gigs of data is not competitive. I want to cancel the mail, contacts, email, etc. without Removing data from my Mac. How?

I recently signed on for iCloud service, but find that it interrupts my workflow too often (which I know I can reset), but will soon exceed my free storage space. I have 200 gigs of data on my local drive and frankly the cost and benefit of having ICloud access to all of it is not competitive. This particular iCloud offering is overpriced for me. I want to cancel all iCloud services but can't seem to find an easy way to do it without removing the data on my local drive, which would be disaster. Need the communities help. Thanks to all.

Tried this, but unfortunately there was no way to cancel it even when disconnected from the NET. I'm on WIFI which I turned off.
I keep getting a pop-up that says:
The same message comes up when you want to cancel or remove any of the other iCloud storage functions including Contacts and Emails. This is obviously a scary thought. Why would APPLE program in this type of message? I'm already at 50% of my FREE storage on iCloud after only 2 weeks. There is no way I'm going to be held hostage by this clearly unacceptable "pay or die" programming lapse when I get to 100%. I know APPLE loves making money. Who doesn't, but this makes no sense to this devoted "Since 1984" Apple fan.

Conversion Agent and the module processor

Hi,
i have to make an offer for a client of ours. Therefore i was thinking to propose the conversion agent for developing a process module into the inbound communication channel in the XI-Scenario.
But i think i understand sth wrong or does this module substitute the normal mapping inside the XI?!
Can someone give me a hand?!
thx in advance

Jens,
Conversion Agrent is used to convert non XMl data into XML and vice versa.
For example it can read a PDF, EXCEL and conevrt it into XMl and also convert XML into EDI formats etc etc.
You use the conversion agent studio to develop the conversion mapping and then deploy it as a module. From the comm channel you call the Conversion Agrent Module which in turn runs on its own Engine and does the conversion for you.
So, if possible, you can also use conversion agent to actually read your source and create iyt in the format of the target and thgerbey replace Mapping. But, it all depends on the feasibility of what you are trying to do.

Bhavesh

Relation between an idoc and the workflow launched

Hi masters.
I have a hard question to solve.
I have an inbound idoc whick launch a workflow. Also i have a report to reprocess a workflow that has not finished or has finished with Error status.
But my requirement is that if the status of the inbound status is 68 you have not reprocess the workflow which has generated this idoc.
Do you know hoy i can obtain the data between the workflow and the idoc?
Many thanks.

Hi again Ferry,
Yes, but i need to do this with abap.
I have a report to reprocess workflows. I have only the id workflow and the status (table SWWWIHEAD) but i have to reprocess only the workflows which idoc (idoc that has generated this task) are not in status 68.
Many thx!!

Firefox 4 does not load the modules in the Netvibes website. I've checked it on 5 pc's and all are encounting the same issue.

We utilize Netvibes at work and the modules which are like snipets of webpages do not load with Firefox 4, so we are stuck with Firefox 3.6.8, dues to after this verstion, Netvibes does not work on any further updated versions or Firefox 4.

Hi Josh,
Thanks for taking the time to contact us here a Novation for technical support. Lets continue to correspond via email so we can get your issue resolved.
Thanks.

Siebel & "BIP Report Generation" Workflow and Bookmark Syntax

IHAC that wants to schedule the generation of a BIP report to run every weeknight and include a list of activities for the next day. We've utilized an OOTB IO and can successfully render the report using Sample XML in MS Word. Additionally, since they are only on 8.1.1, they do not currently have access to the latest scheduling capabilities. Therefore, we're trying to implement a repeating component to call a workflow to generate the report using the 'BIP Report Generation' workflow and the associated objects (from support posting 823360.1).
Now to the questions:
One of the parameters for the workflow is a 'Bookmark'. This parameter does not appear to handle various 'Siebel' querying functions like 'Today()' as part of the criteria. Can someone confirm this statement?
Currently, I can imagine one high-level possible workarounds. This would entail a revised WF and that includes a prior step to generate the 'Bookmark' by retrieving a string representation of tomorrow's date and concatenating it with the rest of the criteria.
Next question:
Does anyone have any other possible alternatives? Maybe a calculated field in the BC/IC for 'Today() + 1' - but this could have performance implications.
Thanks in advance for any help.

Suggestions/comments?

How to view and restore sharepoint 2013 designer workflows and how to redeploy with newer version to environments

how to view and restore sharepoint 2013 designer workflows and how to redeploy with newer version to environments
MCTS Sharepoint 2010, MCAD dotnet, MCPDEA, SharePoint Lead

Hi,
In SharePoint Designer 2010, we could not save the workflow as a template directly except the reusable workflow.
However, in SharePoint Designer 2013, we can just save all the types workflow as a template, then you can import the workflow into the new environment.
http://blogs.msdn.com/b/workflows_for_product_catalogs/archive/2012/11/02/deploying-a-workflow-on-a-different-server.aspx
In SharePoint Designer 2013, every time we publish the workflow, we would get a newer version workflow, and the old workflow version would be overwritten.
So, when you deploy the workflow in the environment, the workflow would the newer version.

Jason

Workflows and account permissions

Hi all,
I have a scenario, which I will describe below, and which to me doesn't sound normally, if someone knows something about this it would be much appreciated.
The scenario is this:
I have a criteria workflow with one step. I have set the security group, the criteria definition and added a user to the step. The step is a review/edit revision step. This user has access to some account, let's call it acc1(RW). The authentication type of the user is external.
The user is able to check-in a document in the CS, upon check-in the document enters the workflow(as expected). The document has set as account the account acc1. So far all is good.
I now change the account so that acc1(RW) becomes acc1(R), so that the user has Read permission to the account and not Read-Write permission.
The document is in the workflow and the user tries to do an update, this action is forbidden(which i would have expected). because of the Read permission and not Read-Write permission.
Now comes what I don't understand: if the user tries to check-out and check-in the document, these actions are allowed, despite the Read permission on the account acc1! I was expecting that the actions won't be allowed, but they were. This comes against the fact that before I was prevented from updating the metadatas of the document...
Is this the normal behavior?
Thanks,
Vlad

> Are you referring to check-out / -in within a workflow?
Yes
> have you tried to approve the document...?
No, I just tried to update the metas and checkout/in actions
> do the same outside the workflow?
Outside of a wf all behaves as expected: not possible to update the metas or checkout/in document
> Can't this be caused by the fact that the user is also an author, or something?
Tried with another user other than the author and it behaved in the same way
Thanks,
V.

Workflow AND role

Hi,
I have a question regarding to the workflow.
When i create a service notification IW51, the system generate a workflow and the user recieve a message to unblock the service notification (using status profile).
When we affect the "SAP_ALL" role to this user. The user unblock the notification ..OK
But, i can't find the appropriate role or the appropriate autorization object to affect to the user. i try, iw51/IW52 the user recieve a message but when he unblock the service notification, there is an error.
Thanks in advance for your help

without assigning 'SAP_ALL' run it. let the error come.
then goto SU53. and check which auth obj is needed.
add that to a new role or a existing role which u can provide to user

Service module placement and the L2 adjacency problem

I'd be very interested to hear others opinions on this. You have a datacenter environment with L2 boundaries at end of row aggregators, then L3 back to the core and edge. You have 6500 service module switches hanging off the core housing ACE and FWSM modules. You want to offer firewalling and load-balancing services to servers around the datacenter.
What is the current best practice ways of resolving the L2 adjacency requirement that the firewalling and load-balancing services impose? L2TPv3? EoMPLS? Any relevant advice, deployment examples, whitepapers etc would be much appreciated!
Thanks for any replies,
George

George
You could i suppose look to use L2TPv3 if your switches support it or EoMPLS but to my mind this is actually using a band aid to fix a problem that shouldn't be there.
We too struggled in our data centres with this setup but remember you only need L2 adjacency if you are running the FWSM in transparent mode or the ACE in bridged mode.
If you are then the cleanest solutions are either
1) redesign core connections to L2
2) deploy 6500 switches in the distribution layer. I say distribution layer because it's not clear from your description what your topology actually is but i'm assuming L2 access to distro and then L3 distro to core and the core switches are the 6500 switches.
Personally i always use the routed L3 approach where possible for fast failover and no STP and in the campus environment it works really well.
However L3 from the access-layer to the distro in the data centre is very limiting and you often come across problems such as the one you are facing.
Now again it does depend on your topology but assuming the issue is your core is L3 connected and you need L2 adjacency with your distro to offer servers i would look to deploy 6500 switches in the distro layer with the service modules in them.
If i have misunderstood please come back with more details.

Z97 GAMING 9 AC - PCIE and the wi-fi module no longer detecting

Hi,
I 'm Overclocking enthusiast and recently decided to take to my hometown in Brazil using a platform products from MSI, to make disclosure of benchmark tests in social networks and in gaming blogs.
So i purchased a new system including the MSI Z97 GAMING 9 AC motherboard and MSI Gaming N770 TF 4GD5/OC GeForce GTX 770 4GB graphics card. After building the system I initially had problems with the graphics card not being detected and the wi-fi module (that hard to fit in the mobo) don't even appear in device manager. I already tried to dismount and remount the module on the motherboard with extreme care, no success. After some research I updated the bios to 1.5 and used the onboard graphics card to install windows 8.1, drivers etc. After windows, drivers etc were installed the graphics card and the wi-fi module still would not detect.
I have tried another graphics card in this system and it does not seem to work either. In bios it just always says that the PCIE slots are 'empty'.
So I have tried the following:
1. Cleared CMOS.
2. Updated BIOS.
3. Updated Chipset, drivers etc.
4. Tested the Graphics Card in other computers.
5. Used a different graphics card in this system.
6. Tried PCIE 2.0, 3.0 and auto.
7. Completely reformated and started from scratch.
So after many attempts I am disappointed with MSI and need some solution to my problem, since I saw that several customers who have purchased from MSI are the same product with exactly the same problem which possibly conclude that MSI has a duty to resolve these cases.
Full Specs:
•   EVGA SuperNOVA 1300G2 ATX12V/EPS12V 1300W 80Plus Gold Power Supply 120-G2-1300-XR
•   Corsair Cooling Hydro Series H100i Liquid CPU Cooler - Extreme Performance CPU Cooling and Built-In
•   Intel Core i7 4790 LGA1150 CPU 3.6Ghz
•   Corsair Vengeance Pro 16GB 2x8GB DDR3
•   2 x Kingston 120GB SSD 6Gbs
•   Microsoft Windows 8.1 Pro 64bit OEM
•   MSI Z97 Gaming 9 AC Motherboard
•   MSI Gaming N770 TF 4GD5/OC GeForce GTX 770 4GB 256-Bit GDDR5 PCI Express 3.0 HDCP Ready SLI Support Video Card

I have the exact same problem with my gaming 9 AC only the PCIe slot for gfx card worked initially. MSI support sent me a new WiFi adapter, it also didnt work. When I installed it, the PCIe slot would not identify my graphics card anymore. MSI support then advised me to return the board to the reseller, where it is now - they are checking it for defects before they do anything.
Ill keep you updated how they proceed from here. If there are any more problems I will just ask my reseller to downgrade me to a gaming 7, I can add a pcie wifi card on my own, and avoid the hassle.

Who worked with ICS' Model 4896 GPIB? I can not count the data from the module. Can prompt as it to make. It is desirable with examples (data read-out from the module and data transmission between channels. It is in advance grateful.

Hello. Most of the engineers in developer exchange are more familiar
with NI products. Contacting ICS for technical support is a better
course of action.
