Adding of RAW-attachement in decision step ?

hi,
i have an decision step in an workflow.
there it is possible (as SAP Standard) to attach a attachement.
but the only thing a user should do there is to enter an RAW document, just a text
for the next user.
BUT: when i push the 'attachement' button in the decision step i get
a very user-unfriendly popup 'between'. there the user must enter
a text BEFORE he can enter the text in the editor.
is it possible to avoid that windows between and get DIRECTLY into
the note-editor ???????
reg, Martin

Hi,
Assign "Description as your default attribute in your BO basic data...
this will work...

Workflow- Adding Terminating event into a Decision Step

Hi
I have a requirement like, in the decision step for example 'Approve' or 'Reject' has to be executed from the web application by triggering a terminating event for this decision step. I have copied the decision BO DECISION to ZDECISION and created two terminating events and make it ashynchrounous. But this step is not getting executed in the workflow showing error as 'no terminating event is attached to the task'.
Any input on this is welcome. If you could reply bit early as I need the information ASAP.
Thanks in advance.

How To Send Invoice List as attachment in User Decision Step?

HI All,
I have developed a workflow in which there is one ZMETHOD in which i will get the list of invoices.and that i want to send it as attachment to User Decision Step.
How to do this?

If your users will have access to MIR4, why not just bind the business object BUS2081 as an adhoc object into your decision step? That would solve everything pretty nicely, I think.

Adobe form as attachment to user decision step

Hi,
i need to add adobe form as attachement to user decision step in workflow.
1. i created activity step which call business object method with parameters workitem id
     i am using FM SAP_WAPI_ATTACHMENT_ADD’ which will return attribute id
     i am passing that attribute with document id to 'ZSOFM'
        ZSOFM <-----------------------------------ZSOFM (Method to task)
      Bindings 'Attach_objects' <------------- ZSOFM(Task to Workflow).
2. i created user decision step
    Bindings 'Attach_objects' --------------------> 'Attach_Objects'( Workflow to user decision task).
but when we execute first activity step in background i am not getting any PDF output .but when we execute same method from class i can see pdf data is coming is it due to user name WF-Batch.
when i execute activity step in back ground which will have sy-uname as WF-Batch i am not getting any PDF output data.
please help how to solve .
Thanks,
Phani

In transaction SWO1 create a z-object lets say zmyobjpdf (you might want to use it as a sub object of your standard object without delegation since they will probably have the same key).
create a method in that object calling the adobe form.
set it as the default method in the object header.
now create an instance of the zmyobjpdf in the workflow for example as an attribute of the original object) and transfer it to the decision task.
It will be displayed as an attached object pressing it will call the default method - your adobe form.
If your question was about how to create a function module to display the form see SAP Library - PDF-Based Forms

Decision step with attachment

hi
my issue is i have kept a decision step where , i need to send decision step with attachment , i have done binding in the control tab ,of decision step like this
& absence& --> &_ATTACH_OBJECTS&
my attachemnet should be absence object.
when i execute , i 'm getting the decision workitem but with
no attachment , would u help on this .

Hi,
Make sure you have &ABSENCE& object is instantiated in any one of the steps before to youe decision step.
In Workflow Log, check the container elements and see if Adhoc_Objects container element value getting filled or not on your user decision step? If it is not having any values and if your binding is correct, then i am sure &ABSENCE& object is not instantiated before. Check !!

Maint. Order as Attachment in workflow decision step!!!!

Hi All,
I am making a workflow in which i want to attach the Maintenance Order in the Decision Step , is it possible or not.
How can i do attachment in Send Mail Step is there any provision.
Basically my requirement is like:-
When the User create the Maintenance Order a workflow should trigger which will go the SAP Inbox of the recipient now he has to see the maint. Order created and should approve if it can be Released or not .
When he does the approval the application should go for the another approval and when he approves the application is sent back to the workflow initiator.
Please suggest me what is the best way to do this scenerio. As i m very new to workflow so have only basic knowledge
Please help me out!!!!!
Thanks

Hi Rachit,
Have a look at std WF like WS20000014, WS20000021 etc..
It will give idea about maintenace order processing
Regarding your question about attaching objet to User decision, yes, its possible. Just Bind the Maintenance Order Object related container element to AdhocObjects elemnet of user decision.
Your overall process can be there will be 2 user decision steps.
Once these two steps approve, then you can use a third step with background task which will actually release the maintenace order. e.g. For this step you can use BAPI.
Hope this helps.

Workflow Issue - Adding parameter to my decision step.

Hi
I am working on workflow and in decision step there are 4 parameters that I can use for Title. I have a requirement of 6 parameters. Is there any way in which I can add another parameter to my Decision step.
Himanshu Verma.
Patni Knowledge Park, India.

Would it be possible for you to concatenate the values of two parameters into one in a previous step?
Or even having only one parameter and a previous step that generates the full title you want to display...
Data element is SWD_PARAM1 which is CHAR255, long enough for holding a custom title.
Hope that helps,
Andres.

SOFM in user decision step - provide reason in UWL

Hello Everyone,
I'm working with a customer who wants to use a user decision step and add a reason for the rejection only. This step will be executed in UWL - since UWL doesn't support syncrhonous dialog chains, it can't be implemented by adding another step with SOFM. I have seen the 'template with attachment' in the user decision step, and have tried binding SOFM to the Reference in the container, but the user doesn't have the option.
Perhaps this could be implemented with a secondard amodal method - which checks the user decision code and only implements if the decision was rejected. I'd like to be able to put a condition on the secondary methods.
If you've done something like this, please let me know!
Regards
Ginger

Hi Ginger,
Unfortunately it is not only synchronous dialog chains, but also secondary methods that are not supported in the UWL, so you're stuck both ways.
Though, I have been told that the latest SP does support some kind of advance with dialog functionality (SP15 I think?).
At one customer we used a custom ABAP-based decision step which executed in a wingui session - thus synchronous dialog chains worked as long as every subsequent step was wingui based (which SOFM.CREATE obviously is) - worked quite well.
Let me know if you need more info.
Cheers,
Mike

Terminating Event with Decision Step

Hi,
In our purchase requisition approval workflow, I need to have a decision step in which to prompt approver to either approve the req. or reject the requisition. In this decision step, I need for it to have terminating events for "SIGNIFICANTLYCHANGED", "RELEASE", "REJECT" and "RESET".
First, I copy the generic decision task 8267 to my my own custom decision task. Then I added a BUS2009 in the container, releasecode and other needed elements. In this custom decision task, I was able to add these terminating events that has been defined in the BUS2009. I was able to setup binding, except the one binding
Terminating Event ->   Task
&_EVT_OBJECT&      ->   &_WI_OBJECT_ID&
Since the &_EVT_OBJECT& for the terminating event is BUS2009. And the custom decision task &_WI_OBJECT_ID& is DECISION business object. They're incompatable business object. So I replaced that binding with
Terminating Event     -> Task
&_EVT_OBJECT&    ->   &PURCHASE_REQ&
After all the configuration has been setup. I created a new purchase requisition. Upon the RELEASESTEPCREATED event, it create a custom decision workitem in my agent's inbox. When I triggered the "RELEASE" event, it is however not terminating my custom decision workitem. The workitem still sits in the agent's inbox waiting to be execute.
Is it possible to setup terminating events for decision step? Any kind of suggestions or inputs would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you.

System Analyst

I will suggest you to create a fork with 2 parallel branch and 1 necessary branch. Put the approval step in 1 branch and the wait for Release step event in another branch in this way you can suffice your requirment.
Thanks

Display descirption in BO link in Decision step instead of keyfields

Hi All,
I have created a workflow in Records management which is integrated with SRM for the approval of documents. I have a user decision step in my workflow which has many documents displayed as links during approval. For this i copied the std decision task and created my own task and added the business object 'DOCUMENT' ( multi line element). Now it is displaying the documents correctly. but it shows the link as 'BO: key fields' . In this case the key fields are combination of document class and document guid.
Now the requirement is to display the description of the document instead of keyfields. The description will be available as one of the attribute for the document BO.
Can anyone help on this requirement?
Thanks,
Sivagami R

Hi,
Assign "Description as your default attribute in your BO basic data...

"You can also" link in UWL work item when using user decision step in workflow

Hi,
Just want to check if anybody has tried adding links to this section in the UWL when using user decision step? I need to pass some custom links which will be calling some webdynpro applications and backend transactions. I have read somewhere that Ineed to modify the XML file but don' t know how the next steps once I have defined (i.e. how to handle those links).
Thanks in advance.
Rammel

Hi Rammel
I hope you are keeping well and many thanks for using the SAP Discussion Forums .
Based upon your scenario you mentioned that:
You want to add links to the "You Can Also" section in the UWL with user decision steps
In an effort to pass custom links (calling web dynpro) applications.
You wish to know how to modify the XML
Ok now based upon the scenario there are two key points regarding XML files and efforts to change them.
Remember that XML in terms of the UWL follow the notion of precedence. Now that means that once you make a change to an XML file you need to re-upload it to realize changes. To re-upload an XML file and realized changes you need to do so with a "High" or "Very High" priority and also ensure that the UWL Cache has been cleared of the UWL Service restarted so changes can be realized.
The second key point is to ensure that you backup all current XML files before making any changes so you can easily revert those changes if required.
Now reverting back to your query, the XML files and the "You Can Also" section. Kindly see the documentation outlined below as here you are going to make changes to the I-View configuration:
Configuring the UWL
