Absence management/substition rules for workflows in UI5

Hi,
we would like to set the substition rules for the workflows in UI5 because some users don't use the SAPGUI but UI5 and need to maintain the substitution in case of planned absences (and maybe also in general) in case of an unplanned absence.
Therefore we are searching for the possibility to set the substition rule for the workflows within an UI5 application. Does ist already exist (maybe as Fiori app) or are there any NW GW services like WFService that support this as a good starting point for our development?
Regards, Vanessa

Hi,
Set substitution app is included in My Inbox (Wave 7), for more details please check

Awesome window manager client rule for "GtkFileChooserDialog"

Hi,
I've set up my current awesome wm so that the web browser (chromium) always opens on tag 2 of screen 1.
When I have an external screen however, I soemtimes like to move the web browser to the external screen.
The problem with my setup is that when I want to e.g. download something, the file chooser dialog opens (of course)
on tag 2 of screen 1, instead of the current tag and screen of the main window of my web browser.
Is there a way to set a rule for clients that are dialog windows to appear floating on the same tag and screen
as the window that started the dialog?
When I wanted to make a rule for this, the first problem I encountered is that the class and name of the dialog or the same as the main window.
So I wondered if I can use other properties of windows besides name, class or instance.
The second problem is that I do not know how to get the screen and tag of the window that opened the dialog?

Roles and Rules for workflow.

Hi,
I have some basic conpectual problem about roles and rules.
What is the diffrenece between roles and rules in sap business workflow ? What is the Tcode for Role creation/Change/Display and Rule creation/Change/Display ?
I am using a standard workflow for PR Release "WS20000077".
I have done all the setting except this agent assignment using roles or rules. The default rules used in the task "TS20000159" is "20000026". The Binding from workflow to rules container is also defined by the workflow itself.
This rules is defined using a function module.When I am putting a breakpoint in this function module and tring to execute my workflow it is not going to the given breakpoint but the workflow is running successfully as shown in the event trace "SWE2".
What could be the problem..Pls suggest?

Sankar,
You have to use txn OOCU_RESP to maintain agent assignments for responsibility rules in different clients.

SQL Server 2014 support for Workflow Manager?

Is this configuration supported?
The prerequisite requirements for Workflow Manager are out of date and do not even list SQL 2012 R2 as a supported DB server.

Hi JB
We installed Workflow Manager 1.0 on a Dev SharePoint 2013 SP1 + April 2014 CU Farm running Against SQLServer 2014 which I suspect in not much different under the hood to your SQL2012R2.
Freelance consultant

Cumulative Update 2 for Workflow Manager 1.0 (KB 2902007) - installing the workflow client - nothing happens

I've updated the Service bus and workflow manager to CU2 but when I try and run the workflow manager client it starts but then just bombs out - begins to load then disappears and nothing happens
On Control Panel - the Service bus, workflow manager and WF client are all there - but click show updates - the CUs for Service bus and Workflow manager are there but not for WF client
So it's just not installing for some reason
Anyone know how I can get this to install?
Cheers
J

Hi,
For CU there are Prerequisites, please check the following requirements:
Software requirements:
PowerShell 3.0 must be installed on the computer to be updated. PowerShell 3.0 is included in the Windows Management Framework 3.0 installation. Go to Windows Management Framework 3.0 to install this update.
Workflow Manager Client 1.0 must be installed on the computer.
For computers that have Workflow Manager 1.0 installed, the following additional requirements apply:
The Service Bus for Windows Server cumulative update must be installed on the whole computer farm before you install the cumulative update for Workflow Manager 1.0
also Service Bus for Windows Server must be installed on the computer.
You must have administrative credentials on the computer where you are installing the software.

BADI for MDGF rule based workflow

Hi Experts,
I am really struggling to get a badi that can route on field assigned in my single and agent decision tables. I have used the standard BADI that was provided in RDS documentation for BP and Materials and just tried to change the entity name and field names without success.
Can anyone please provide me with an example where someone has used this to route on field in finance.
I am trying to route on Segment for Profit center
Your help will be highly appreciated
Thanks and best regards
Riaan

Hi Abdullah,
I am using an existing attribute in the data model OG in the entity PCTR. The field name is PCTRSEG and element is fb_segment. In my rule based workflow in the Single decision table I have added fb_segment and I have populated the values against step 00. I have also updated my agent decision table with the fb_segment value.
I am attaching the BADI that I am struggeling with.
The service name for the change request is in the BADI filter. Thus when the requestor submit the Badi will be called and it will route to the person assigned in my agent decision table against the relevant segment..
My problem is the following:
The issue is that I don't know where I should maintain PCTRSEG and where I should maintain fb_segment in the BADI. Thus, where do I use the attribute name from the data model and where do I use the data element from the model.
When the requestor submit the request it does not go to the next approver and I get the error" Agent could not be determined"
I found ,when I change any of the values for the segment in the single and agent decision tables to not equal, example <> 1001 that the workflow works but all change requests will go to the same person.
Thus my assumption is that something might be wrong with the BADI
Your help will be highly appreciated
Thanks
Riaan

EXR and RPF rules for alpha and color management?

How can I change the interpretation rules so that EXRs always import with straight alphas? They always import with Premulti now.
Also, I want to always turn off color management (Preserve RGB) for RPFs. (I use RPFs for my motion vector passes and color management always throws off the blur with ReelSmart)

How can I change the interpretation rules so that EXRs always import with straight alphas? They always import with Premulti now.
AE is just obeying the original EXR spec, which suggests all colors are premultiplied. If the Alpha channel is not specifically tagged as unpremultiplied, that's what AE will use.
Also, I want to always turn off color management (Preserve RGB) for RPFs. (I use RPFs for my motion vector passes and color management always throws off the blur with ReelSmart)
Similar to the previous, I'd say. The fault is probably with the program not creating a linear motion vector pass in the first place and thus the pass having a Gamma bias or else you wouldn't see those shifts. And I wouldn't use RPF... If you render your RGB to EXR, you can do so for the motion pass as well. EXRs per spec store colors linearly, which might also help to avoid your issues.
Anyway, I'm not aware of globally changing any of that from the AE end. As I was trying to explain, the program is more or less behaving correctly based on assuming the files you feed it comply with certain standards....

Internal Server error while approving leave in absence management

hi
In my project absence mgt is applicable for Netherland employees. When an NL manager applies leave and his manager from puerto rico tries to approve it from UWL , the manager is getting the following ERROR on clicking on the leave request in his inbox task.
500   Internal Server Error   Web Dynpro Container/SAP J2EE Engine/6.40
Failed to process request. Please contact your system administrator.
Error Summary
While processing the current request, an exception occured which could not be handled by the application or the framework.
If the information contained on this page doesn't help you to find and correct the cause of the problem, please contact your system administrator.

This UWL error in Leave approval workflow is coming ONLY when PR manager is trying to NL employee's leave .
All other country managers ( US , CH , FR etc) are able to approve the leave without any issue.
We are using the standard leave approval workflow.
ANY SOLUTIONS Plzz???

Hello
The above issue can occur if the rule group , to which this employee belongs, the leave type is not configured correctly. Please check the view V_T556A_WEB. The leave type and the rule group need to be defined here .
Also make sure that the counting rule for the leave type is also define correctly in T556C. Once the leave type for the approver which belongs to the rule group has been correctly configured, way it has been done for normal employees, there will not be any issue.
Kindly complete the necessary customizing and check your results.
Thanks and kind Regards
