Add Claim From Queue ACL to Process

Hi
I'm trying to enable an Manager in a process to Re-Claim a Task form the Recipients Queue.
Scenario - Manager sends request for information to User B but then finds out User B is off sick for a month so want's to Claim the task back so he can send it to someone else.
I can set this to a Static Manager by setting the Manager in the Task ACLs tab of the Assign Task object for the User to allow the Manager to 'Claim' tasks from his queue.
That works fine but I need to create this facility dynamically within the workflow as the Manager will be different for every User.
I think the "addClaimACLForSharedQueues" workflow object should allow me to do this dynamically within the workflow - is this correct ?
If so how do I determine the 'QueueID' for the User's queue to set this in the addClaimACLForSharedQueues Queue ID Input ?
I'm assuming that the 'Task ID' can be derived form the XPath '/process_data/@id' and that the 'Assigned User ID' is simply the User Login ID of the Manager ?
Any help welcome - Thanks - Stuart

to get the taskID you would need to use the events. Create a process which gets invoked every time a task is created. In the event data, I think you can get the taskID.Can you explain what is QueueID?

Add layers from other psd file and retain text layers (Batch processing)

I want to batch process a large number of portraits adding text info from the filename (year_name_number.jpg) to existing text layers. I want to make a template psd file containg the correct labeled text layers formatted and adjusted (With bleding effects and more) How can i add layers from an other psd file to the active document and retaining the text layers editable. The place command in PS5 adds the file as a smart object, no use.
Any ideas?
I tried the combined action/script way, but no joy so far. Right now i am making the text layers with a action, then calling the script from the action. It works but its difficult to make different templates from adjusting a action.
The code i am using now (in combination with a action creating the 3 text layers and other grapchical elements)
var docRef = activeDocument;
// strip the extension off
var fileNameNoExtension = docRef.name;
fileNameNoExtension = fileNameNoExtension.split( "_" );
if ( fileNameNoExtension.length > 1 ) {
fileNameNoExtension.length--;
fileNameNoExtension = fileNameNoExtension.join("_");
var myString = fileNameNoExtension;
var mySplitResult = myString.split("_");
var textLayer = docReflayers['Year']; // define the existing text layer to a var
docRef.activeLayer = textLayer;
textLayer.kind = LayerKind.TEXT;
var T1 = textLayer.textItem;
T1.contents = mySplitResult[0]
var textLayer = docRef.layers['Name']; // define the existing text layer to a var
docRef.activeLayer = textLayer;
textLayer.kind = LayerKind.TEXT;
var T2 = textLayer.textItem;
T2.contents = mySplitResult[1]
var textLayer = docRef.layers['Number']; // define the existing text layer to a var
docRef.activeLayer = textLayer;
textLayer.kind = LayerKind.TEXT;
var T3 = textLayer.textItem;
T3.contents = mySplitResult[2]
Thanks

Here is my intended workflow:
- A set of same size portraits labeled "year_name_number.jpg"
- A template.psd os same size with graphical elements and text layers (named "year", "name" and "number")
- A script or action copy/pasting og adding all layers from the template.psd file to the open portrait file, retaining text layers editable.
- A script (The one i have working) changing the text layers added from the template to text from the filename.
- A action saving this as a PDF ready for print.
This way i can process a large number of portraits, add names and other information and save it as a file ready for print.
I can image it is much easier to edit a template than writing a script or an action creating all the graphical elements.
And even better, to change this template for different customers/departments/logos.
Basically i need a way to add layers to an open file using a batch file or script.

OK I understand what your trying to do and now I do not agree with your conclusion you made in you first append about place being no good for you. Its is I think a perfect solution for you. I feel you need to address the process from a new angle.
I am very familiar with templates I use them all the time for collages which I populate with an actions. However I do not batch this process and my process is interactive. If you look at what your trying to do from the angle of creating a collage. You will see what you are trying to do is automate the population of a single image collage using a single template in a batch process. An example of one of my single image collage populated by one of my actions that has been saved as a jpeg image file. My actions are played in Photoshop with no document opened. After my action is play there is a single collage document in Photoshop that contains layers that can be tweaked all text is in text layers the can be edited.
If I wanted to automate the batch population of a single collage template I think all I would need to know is three thing.
1.) The location of the input images
2.) The full Path of the PSD template file.
3.) The location to store the output file
Looking at some of the recent threads in this forum I could almost cut and past the script you want to put together. There was a recent thread that had javascript code to process files in a folder and process only a list of file types. There also was a thread that had a place function in it to place images into the current document or create a new document to place the image into. The image was read from the web using a URL. This thread has code to change a text layer. At first I though you may need to open these image file to get at its meta-data to get the Portrait image Exif creation data. But see all you need is the Filename for it has the data you want the year and name. So the function that get the image files from the folder will give you that. The Script needs to Open the Template PSD file and retrieve the prototype text layers text content then the scrip needs a loop that get the next image file to be processed from the folder get filename function. In the loop the image files are place into the open template above a place holder layer like the Background layer. Then using the prototype text contents and the filename are used create the new content for the text layer and then change the text layers content to it. Follow that up with a save as for the output file. Once the output file is saved delete the placed smart object layer. When this loop ends the script will close the document with no save and end. As for the three inputs you need the script could either have a dialog like the images processor or simply prompt you for the folders and template file.

Add Fields from table ADRC (Fields Name 1 to 4) for Open Item Processing

Hi SAP Expert:
Our client requires vendor/customer name to be displayed in the open item processing line layout for transaction code f-58, so they can double check if the vendor name is complete as intended.
We intend to add fields from table ADRC instead of REGUH since the characters in maintaining vendor/customer name is 40 characters and REGUH - ZNME1s are only 35 characters.
We have managed to add fields from ADRC and change the SAPDF05X program and were able to display the names in open item layout, except that the program seems to "automatically" create a generic table which only carries 30 characters of the vendor/customer name. The source table should be RFOPS_DK but the program automatically looks up from table RFOPS_GEN for the particular fields - Name 1 to 4. Is there a way to "instruct" the program to use RFOPS_DK instead of RFOPS_GEN?
Hope this will merit somebody's attention... Thanks !!!

Thanks, i have assigned the layout via o7v3, it is the program that i have a problem with, actually another program that we change is the program MF05BFPO where it generates data to be displayed in the FBZ4 screen, though we add a field with 40 characters (ADRC Name 1 to 4) what the program dispalys is a 30 character Name1 to 4 from structure RFOPS_GEN.
My question is can i extend/change the structure RFOP_GEN to 40 characters, is there any SAP standard program that will aftected if i do so? thank very much...

MDB messages dont get processed from Queues when involving a remote Topic in transaction

Using WLS 6.1 SP4 on winXP Pro boxes, I have come across a peculiar problem:
          I have several MDBs that process ObjectMessages from queues and forward their payload (wrapped in another new ObjectMessage) to other queues, all of which are located within the same WLS server.
          Right now I'm adding a new MDB that gets messages from a remote Topic with a durable subscription, and forwards the payload to local queues after some processing.
          When the Topic is local as well, there is no problem. But when the Topic is set up in a remote machine, only the MDB that has the remote durable subscription works the way it should. It receives the remote message and forwards it to the corresponding local queue. But then the messages in those local queues dont get processed. The 'Messages Received' count rises and the 'Messages' count stays at 0, as if the messages had been correctly processed and acknowledged, but no onMessage() method is called besides the one from the MDB that has the durable subscription to the remote Topic (I can tell because there's no further processing from the queue those messages get put in). It's as if those messages were simply received and acknowledged without being passed to other MDBs by WLS.
          * All queue MDBs use Required container-managed transaction management and auto-acknowledge
          * All queue MDBs have default durability for their queue subscriptions
          * The topic MDB has a durable subscription stored in a filestore
          * Lookup of the remote Topic is done via JNDI
          Since the processing and forwarding of messages occurs the way it should when everything is local, I am inclined to believe one of two things:
          a) There's some issue with the way WLS treats messages (or even just payloads) when they come from a remote server
          b) WLS is doing something I'm not aware of when propagating a transaction that begins with the delivery of a message from a remote JMS Topic when it involves further forwarding of messages in local JMS Queues.
          Any help will be appreciated.
          regards,
          .munir estevane


Is the durable subscriber forwarder rolling back its transactions?
          That would cause the behavior you describe (eg the message gets
          placed in the queue, but is never made visible). What do
          the pending counts on the destination queue look like?

Process take a while to go from Queued to Initiated

Just wondering if anyone had any suggestions about how to speed up processes going from queued to initiated. E.g. you kick off a process, and it takes 15 or more more seconds to change status from queued to initiated and then start processing.
Things I've tried include increasing max concurrent processes for that process type (e.g. App Engine) and also increasing the priority to high but this occurs even when there is just one process running on the process scheduler (so there is no contention with other processes).
Edited by: praj.basnet on Jul 29, 2011 4:27 PM

You may want to reduce the "Sleep time" of the process scheduler if you did not try it yet.

I want to use ODI to read XML messages from JMS queue and then process it..

I want to use oracle ODI (Oracle Data Integrator) to read XML messages from JMS queue and then process it.. i also want to process and validate the data in it....
Could anyone please tell me the steps to achieve the same. I tried some ways which i got on OTN, but not able to implement it exactly...
As i m very new to ODI, it will be great if you provide detailed steps..
Thanks in advance for your help....

Hi,
Were you able to do it? We are facing this same issue now and, despite the fact the docs say otherwise, it does not seem to be a trivial task.

Can you help me add songs from iTunes 11.0.1 to iPhone4S?

I have a new MacBook Air and am trying to add songs from it (iTunes 11.0.1) to iPhone4S.
However, drag & drop does nothing, which is what I had done on my PC to add songs previously.
Note: I specifically don't want to sync my songs/libraries. I just want to add the new stuff I uploaed to MacBook Air iTunes to my iPhone4S.
Any thoughts/help would be GREATLY appreciated.

To be fair, not the news I was hoping to hear, but I'd prefer to hear the bad news sooner rather than after expending more time and energy on a fool's errand.
I uploaded the CDs on my MacBook Air as I'm moving everything there.
So, rather than put them on the old computer and then sync there, I'm guessing at some point I'm going to have to bite the bullet and move all my songs from PC to my Mac.
I imagine I'll have to back up on new computer and erase in the process of putting the old songs and the new on there, getting them off my new computer.
One would hope there'd be an easier and less laborious method, especially since in my established pattern of procrastination I can see me putting this off for a while.
Anyway, thanks again for the feedback.

How to add MS Office add-in from inside a Thinapp 5 virtual application to a MS Office 2013 suite that is installed on a base image

Hi,
We have the following solution:
VMware Horizon View 5.3.1
Non-persistent Linked-clone pool with delete VM after logoff
Windows 8.1 Update 1 Enterprise 64 bit
MS Office 2013 32-bit installed on image
Thinapps registered for each user from logonscript with thinreg.exe command. Thinapps is located on a network share
Native Windows roaming profiles with appdata/roaming, appdata/local without appdata/locallow(persona management does not support Windows 8.1 in View 5.3.1)
This is our issue:
We have a 3rd party application with a couple Thinapp entrypoints(exe files) and in the Thinapp package process we also installed Office addins. We tested that the Add-ins was opened inside Outlook, Word and Powerpoint before post installation scan.
The problem is that the add-ins is not added to Office 2013 before or after the Thinapp is started on a test client.
I have tried several changes in the package.ini and virtual filesystem attributes(no registry changes yet):
Package.ini:
ChildProcessEnvironmentExceptions=WINWORD.EXE;EXCEL.EXE;POWERPNT.EXE;OUTLOOK.EXE;
ChildProcessEnvironmentDefault=External
ChildProcessEnvironmentExceptions=excel.exe;outlook.exe;powerpnt.exe;winword.exe
ChildProcessEnvironmentDefault=Virtual
VirtualizeExternalOutOfProcessCOM=0
DirectoryIsolationMode=Merged
RegistryIsolationMode=Merged
I have also read that you could make entrypoints to the locally installed Office 2013, but I get errors on the build process. ref. link: http://edwinfriesen.nl/content/?p=105#comments
The best thing would be if the add-ins were added in the logon process together with thinreg.exe, but if that is not supported, the add-ins must be added to Office either in a custom Office shortcut/entry point or after starting the Thinapp virtual application.
Remember that the application needs to registered every times the user logon, because we use a non-persistent View pool.
I would really appreciate if somebody could tell me how to add Office add-ins from inside a Thinapp virtual application/package to a locally installed MS Office 2013 suite on a Windows "base" image?
We do not want to add the whole Office suite to the Thinapp virtual package and not add the add-ins trough GPO,SCCM etc.

What about the COM object parameters in package.ini ?
We can live with scripting in logon or changed logon scripts etc.
And you don't no need to lock in the project files.
From package.ini documentation:
ObjectTypes Parameter
The ObjectTypes parameter specifies a list of virtual COM object types that are visible to other applications in
the physical environment. You can use scripts, such as VBScripts, to call objects that start captured applications.
An object type is registered to only one native or virtual application at a time. If you install Office 2003 on the
native machine and want to use a virtual Office 2007 package, you must determine whether to have the virtual
or native application handle the object types.
If you want the virtual Office 2007 to handle the object types, you can leave the ObjectTypes setting in the
Package.ini file, build the package, and register it using the thinreg.exe utility. If you want the native Office
2003 to handle the object types, you must remove the ObjectTypes setting from the Package.ini file before
building and registering the package.
You cannot add random entries to the ObjectTypes parameter.
You can only remove entries that were generated by the capture process.
Example: Starting a Virtual Application When a COM Object is Created
If a script or a native application creates an Excel.Application COM object or other COM objects listed in the
ObjectTypes parameter, ThinApp starts the virtual package.
[Microsoft Office Excel 2007.exe]
ObjectTypes=Excel.Application;Excel.Application.12;Excel.Chart;
Excel.Macrosheet;Excel.Sheet; Excel.Workspace

Status change from 'Completed' to 'In Process' not allowed

When configuring Appraisals in R/3 we want to change the Status of 'Completed' when pressing the 'Reject' button so that it moves to the Target Status of 'In Process'
However, we are getting an error message:
Status change from 'Completed' to 'In Process' not allowed
The SAP help states the following:
In Process (only if final appraisal or part appraisal is defined)
This has been defined at Template Level.
So I don't understand why we are getting the message.
Does any one else know of a way to configure the Appraisal template so that after it has been 'Rejected' it moves back into 'In Process'
Thanks

Hello Andreas,
Ah, sorry, there was so much talk about user decisions that I assumed you were using a standard decision task.
Still, I would be extra careful of changing the way workflow usually works because you have an unknown target audience that are based on the standard.
The standard SAP philosophy is quite simple: cancel/F3 or do nothing and it stays reserved. If you do not want it reserved, you need to perform an action. This is based on a majority of processes: in most cases when you execute a work item you will also be the one who is going to completed it. Replacing it is the lesser used of the two alternatives, therefore it is the only one that requires an action on the part of the user.
Again, this is intended as constructive input. Strange quirks and unusual behaviour tend to add a black mark to software if they do not make things easier to use. In many environments users are not even aware of the reserve/replace business, so there you would be adding an additional layer of complexity.
Personally I would find an exit popup annoying as a regular workflow user - regular decisions can be approved with one click, or I can back out with a single click if I need to make a phone call or look up some info before approving - but with this new-fangled thing I've got an extra button to click and an extra thing to think about. This is especially the case in a payment approval scenario where you may have users in some departments who may approve hundreds of payments each week.
My suggestion would be to leave it like that. By all means put an option into the user decision to put it back or to 'un-reserve' it (and loop round if the user chooses it). That way you are adding value and not clicks.
Cheers,
Mike

Ever since my last update I have been unable to add songs from my i tunes library onto my i phone. The "add to" button does not appear for me when I connect my i phone. Can anyone shed some light on this for me?

Thanks for that 'sberman' - because my iPhone is backed-up to my work computer (only at this stage) I have had to call our IT Department in Adleaide. (4 times this morning). The last guy managed to get the phone into 'DFU Mode' - no more recovery mode screen - (kind of 'asleep' perhaps) from my understanding of same. I am awaiting a call again from IT so they can get my computer to actually recognise my iPhone on the C Drive. This also happened to one of my colleagues in Newman (WA). She got so frustrated with the whole process that she bought another phone the next time she was in 'civilisation.' She hasn't had any problems since. (Cross fingers).
Thanks again, Sandra2474.

Code to Retrieve the message from Queue in Oracle BPEL

Actually I am placing the Message into JMS Queue using JMS Adapter.After Placing the message,I need to retrieve the placed message from same queue.
Right now I am using the Receive Activity and the JMS Adapter to retrieve the message from Queue.But my receive activity is always in the waiting state itself and I am not able to retrieve the message from queue.What might be the issue????
Can anybody give me a better suggestion so that I can go ahead??
Thanks in advance for your help.

Killing a sub process from it's parent process

does any one know if ther's a way of killing a sub process from it's parent process?

There are a few ways to do this depending on how the subprocess was invoked and if you are inside the parent work item instance or if you are using PAPI.
If you are not using PAPI, here's how you could abort the child work item instances spawned by a parent process's work item instance.
Asynchronously Spawned Children
If a child process was invoked using an asynchronous Process Creation activity, the work item instance in the parent has a predefined hash table variable called "children". Downstream of the parent's Process Creation activity (called "SpawnChildren" in the PBL logic below), you can get the child's instance id using the children hash table and use this to send a notification to a Message Wait activty in the spawned child process instance using logic like this:
send Notification
        using instanceId = children["SpawnChildren"],
              activityName = "TerminateChild",
              parameters = nullThe Message Wait activity needs to have its "Allows Interrupt" property checked in the child process. As you add this Message Wait activity (called "terminateChild" in the example above) make it an orphan with no transitions in or out initially. Once notified by the parent process, it still needs to be aborted so add a new Automatic activity in the child with this logic:
action = ABORTFinally, add a transition from the Message Wait activity in the child subprocess to the Automatic activity.
Synchronously Spawned Children
If all you know is the parent work item instance's id and the child subprocess was invoked using a synchronous SubFlow activity, you could send a notification to a Message Wait activity that has it's "Allows Interrupt" property checked in the parent. If the Message Wait activity flows to an Automatic activity, you could use logic like this to kill the child subprocess work item instances synchrously spawned by the parent:
for each ch in ProcessInstance.children do
    send Notification
        using instanceId = ch,
              activityName = "TerminateChild",
              parameters = null
end
action = SKIPSince the parent's instance was stuck in the Subflow activity, you'd need to send a notification to the parent's Message Wait activity in the parent process.

Wagetypes /561(Claim) and /563(Claim from Previous month

Hi,
Please explain the wagetypes /561(Claim) and /563(Claim from Previous month). and thier relevance.
I know that the difference between /561 and /563 shows the net amount that SAP has reclaimed from the overpayment in a single month.
What in case these wagetypes occur in case of a LEAVER? Then how this should be dealt with.

Hi Srijit,
Thanks for replying.
My case is of an employee who left the company in June08. His last payroll was run in June.
Now when the salary of february was processed it came to notice that Rs388/- was posted into employee suspense account. His salary statement shows Take Home pay as Zero.
The posting shows the following:
/552 ( stat net adj) ( amount)388.00 (credit)
/561 (claim) (amount)50,390.00 ( debit)
/563(claim from prev month) (amount) 50,002.00( credit)
This is the scenario.

Polling message from Queue

Hi B2B Gurus,
Is there any way that I could control polling messages from Queue(AQ/JMS).
(e.g) There are 1000 messages in the queue, I want to process 10 at a time.
Are there any settings that can I do so that i can poll 10 messages at a time.
Thanks for your help in Advance.
Regards,
Priyanka

Polling is only based on the interval and not based on size. Please raise an ER.
