ALUI Publisher 6.4 - deleting of content items after expiry date

Hi, We have a requirement to delete content items from Publisher after the expiry dates. Is there a process to do this within ALUI Publisher 6.4? Appreciate any suggestions or thoughts. Thanks.

I work with publisher for a long time now, and I don’t think that there is an automatic process that dose that, you have to manually delete it when it is expired.

System should not allow to delete PO line Item after GR/IR

Hi,
I am working on a SAP Retail Implementation project.
Currently the system is allowing us to delete the PO line items after doing GR or IR against that PO line item. But the clients requirement is that the system should not allow to delete PO line item after doing GR/IR.
We are using Account Assignment Category-N, Item Category-S.
Please let me know if you have the solution for this requirement.
Thanks in advance
Thanks & Regards,
Suresh

Hi,
Standard SAP will not allowed the PO to be deleted once it was GR done. The controlled is on the attributes of message to set as "E"
Message no. 06115
But if invoiced takes place, the is the point that PO can be deleted.
You have to do have a Enhancement using MM06E005, insert you logic here to check PO history tables like EKBE, then check if invoice " Q" (BEWTP) exist, the PO cannot be deleted once the user delete the PO line and SAVE it. Ask you developer to help you on the following coding.
Use MM06E005 and EXIT_SAPMM06E_012
IF SY-TCODE = 'ME22N'.
IF sy-ucomm = 'MESAVE' OR SY-UCOMM = 'YES'..
LOOP AT TEKPO.
IF TEKPO-LOEKZ = 'L'.
SELECT SINGLE BELNR FROM EKBE INTO BELNR1 WHERE EBELN = TEKPO-EBELN AND EBELP = TEKPO-EBELP AND BEWTP = 'E'.
IF SY-SUBRC = 0.
SELECT SINGLE BELNR FROM EKBE INTO BELNR2 WHERE EBELN = TEKPO-EBELN AND EBELP = TEKPO-EBELP AND BEWTP = 'Q'.
IF SY-SUBRC = 0.

Workflow: delete content item after exit

I am using criteria workflows and in one of the steps, if the Action is Reject, content is exiting the workflow (wfExit). At this point, the document is Released and is visible to users with access to it. Is it possible to delete the document before it is published, without any human intervention?

Guys, sorry to interrupt, but IMHO your discussion has one flaw: neither REJECT, not wfExit(100,100) can be caught in the Exit event (of the step where they happen).
As for REJECTs (to which workflow step it returns) see UCM 10G workflow reject issue or wfAction Reject is not working
As for wfExit(100, 100) I tried to following scenario:
Step 1 (Revision/Edit Current)
Entry: <$trace("Step1 - Entry", "#log")$>
<$if wfAction like "REJECT"$>
<$wfExit(100,100)$>
<$endif$>Exit: <$trace("Step1 - Exit", "#log")$>Step2 (Revision only)
Entry: <$trace("Step2 - Entry", "#log")$>Exit: <$trace("Step2 - Exit", "#log")$>Now, if you check-in an item, approve it on step1 and reject on step2, the log will contain:
Step1 - Entry
Step1 - Exit
Step2 - Entry
Step1 - Entry
IMHO, what you could try is to execute the delete in a filter hooked to advanceDocumentStateMarkWorkflowFinished, which is Executed just before a content item in workflow is marked as finished. You can perform additional logging, or update external resources with this filter.

How to delete delivery Line item after the Invoice Passed accounting

Hi Experts,
                Outbound delivery was created w.r.t. Purchase order using VL10B.In the current process here batch is determined at delivery level.There was a line item with '0' Quantity which had a batch and another line item with Full Quantity confirmed for a batch and the PGI was done for the delivery.Invoice was created and passed accounting.
                 The problem is that in VF04 in the Billing due list we are able to see the '0' Quantity Line item as shipped but not yet billed.
                 Doing a PGR ,then delete the line item with '0' Quantity and then again doing PGI was suggested by few people but i feel that will be a very tediuos process since the document passed accounting.
                  Can anyone help in getting the line item deleted from the delivery document or suggest with ways to remove the data at VF04.
Warm Regards,
Jeff

I think you can comeplete the item by using T.code VL_COMPLETE, check and let us know your feedback

Getting hold of an item's expiry date

WWSBR_ALL_ITEMS contains a column called EXPIREDATE.
This only seems to get populated with a date if:
1. An explicit expiry date is provided
2. You click on the expire item link
For items that are set to 'Expire in x days' nothing is stamped here when 'x' number of days past the publish date is exceeded.
In fact, I cannot find where the 'x' days is recorded anywhere.
This means I cannot write any SQL against the WWSBR_ALL_ITEMS view to pull back items that are not expired if 'expire in x days' is utilised.
Can somebody point me in the right direction? I'm sure it is hiding as an attribute somewhere...
Cheers,
John

Simply alter your database table liek this:
alter table <your_table> modify (<your_date_column> default sysdate);
You simple delete this date item from the APEX Form region. Each time you insert a record into thsi table, the column is set to sysdate.

Deleting a dataTable item after sorting

Hello,
I am using a "h:dataTable" which has a 'delete' commandLink on every row.
If I sort the table and then delete an item, the wrong item is deleted.
The deleted item is the item that was originaly in the same place (before sorting).
What should I do to fix that?
Thank you,
Dana

Should I call "sortDataList" before deleting the item the way it was sorted in the previous request?
If so, the function should receive an "ActionEvent event".
public void sortDataList(ActionEvent event) {
String sortFieldAttribute = getAttribute(event, "sortField");
}What should I send as the parameter to the sorting function?

Publisher Content Item has become corrupt

Hi Team,
I am a newbie here.
I have Publisher 6.5. I have a content item that has become corrupt and is not editable any longer. However it can be accessed i.e seen on portal pages.
We have decided to delete this content item and recreate it again. However the problem is, this content item is used by multiple portlets. If we delete the content item then the connection with other portlets will get broken, I guess.
How best can I recreate the content item and how should I rejoin it to the broken portlets

Could you be more descriptive about what you mean by "corrupt"?
If you haven't already, I would recommend creating a help desk ticket.

Not alow delete content Item has status release after finish wokflow

Hi all,
I create Content Item in the WebCenter Content with a workflow to approve it. After content item was approve and status is "Release", It will show on my portal. I saw that at this status, I still can delete this content Item. In this situation, It not alright with us. In fact, at a news website, when a news was public it can't be deleted so easy like that. The News only can be deleted when it was taken down(not public again) from the website. If the news still public no one have right to delete it.
Do you have any idea with this situation?
Thanks a lot!

I understand what you want to do, but I'm missing details how you do it, and why.
Anyway, I will try to guide you through the lifecycle, following your scheme:
a) Step1 (Content does not exist): User A will need at least RW permissions to create the content. The content will enter a criteria workflow to be approved.
b) Step2 (Content in the workflow): User B will need at least R permissions to read the content and approve it. As soon as approval occurs, the content is released
c) Step3 (Content published to the Website): all users will need at least R permissions to view the document. User B will need permissions to "unpublish" the content. You did not answer my question how this "unpublishing" is achieved. I would recommend you to expire the content. Expired content is no longer present on the site, cannot be searched for, but is not deleted. Expiration may take place when a user sets up the metadata Expiration date (dOutDate - see http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E23943_01/doc.1111/e10792/c03_processes.htm#r5c1-t19 ). You may want to customize your system that i) expiration is one-click activity b) only User B can expire the content. Unfortunately, security model does not allow securing metadata changes - all users with R permissions can modify metadata. You could define a profile that will hide the field to all users, but User B, but to be absolutely sure, you would have to add a filter that will (on server-side) prevent anyone else to do it.
d) Step4 (Content expired) You again did not answer, if there is any particular reason for not deleting expired content. Therefore, I will expect that there is none. You could use the Archiver to delete all expired content for you in a batch (once a day/week/month).
As you see, no one in the scheme above can actually delete the content.
Another possible implementation would be using: http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E23943_01/doc.1111/e10792/c05_security.htm#sthref863 (AuthorDelete=true) where only the user who is marked as the author (or in this context, rather "owner") can delete the document. This would be a bit awkward, though, as you would need to modify the value of dDocAuthor - this would again require customization.
Yet, another implementation would be using ACLs http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E23943_01/doc.1111/e10792/c05_security.htm#CDDBCIDA where User A in Step1 would have RWD permissions, and UserB would revoke User A's WD permissions (via ACLs), to grant them back in Step4. This will not require customizations, but on the other hand this would put much more responsibility (and training issues) to User B. Besides, ACLs can affect overall performance of your system.

How to get log of user's delete action on Content Items?

Hi all,
When one user edit a Content Item, we can get the log about this action. But when user delete this content Item, I couldn't find out the log about this action.
I wonder that WebCenter Content have any function to logging the delete action on Content Items?
If it have, where I can find it ?
Thanks a lot!

If you are strictly interested in just "deletes", you can query the table "DocumentHistory". Basic data like checkin, checkout, update, and delete actions against a document is recorded there, along with the user and date.
If you need deeper data however, as Srinath noted, Content Tracker is built for those deeper requests.

Possible to delete SC item after PO creation?

Dear all
We use Extended classic. I need a piece of info.
I am able to delete the SC item after PO creation..! Is it allowed as per general business scenario. Is it possible to delete SC items after PO creation?
How to curb this?
Please share your valuable knowledge in this regards
Thanks in advance

Hello,
As per standard design, it is possible to delete a shopping cart if only
one follow-on document exists. For example, a purchase order or a
purchase requisition.
When you delete the shopping cart in EBP, the deletion indicator will
be set in the purchase order.
You cannot delete the shopping cart if the follow-on document has other
follow-on documents, like confirmation or invoice.
The following is the standard behaviour for SC/limit SC deletion:
SC -> PO : deletion possible
SC -> PReq: deletion possible
SC -> PReq + PO: deletion NOT possible
SC -> PO + CF: deletion NOT possible
SC -> PReq + PO + CF: deletion NOT possible
SC -> PO + CF + INV: deletion NOT possible
SC -> PReq + PO + CF + INV: deletion NOT possible
Standard logic: in general SC does not prevent the deletion of SC items
just because of existence of follow-on documents.
The SC item itself does not know if the deletion is possible.
It just tries to delete the corresponding item of follow-on document.
If this deletion has been successful, then also the SC item can
and will be deleted. If the deletion of follow-on document item has
failed, the SC item deletion is not possible.
So it is a task of follow-on document to know if its items can be
deleted or not.
Best regards,
Ricardo

Error occurred while publishing the content item to the Knowledge Directory

We are receiving the following error upon publishing non-binary content items to the knowledge directory:
Error occurred while publishing the content item to the Knowledge Directory. Contact your portal administrator.
Ironically, in the KD, we call see all content items located in Publisher when we are in Edit mode -- even though they haven't been published to the KD yet. In Browse mode, we can't see any content items.
Has anyone see this error before? What could be the cause?
We are using ALUI 6.1.

Hi,
If you are seeing the documents in the Knowledge Directory and in edit mode, but not browse mode then check/try the following. What exactly were you doing when you got the error? Were you in Publisher or in the Knowledge Directory and running the Simple Submit task?:
1. Try to approve the documents in edit mode.
2. Go to the Administrative->Intrinsic Operations and run the following jobs.
--> Search Update 1
3. Make sure you have proper permissions on the folder in the Knowledge Directory and Publisher Folders.
4. Check the permissions on the Content Source for the Knowledge Directory
I need a little more information to get your better help.
tnx

BEA's Publisher - Display Published Content Items

I'm using BEA's Publisher product with ALUI. I want to have a simple portlet that just displays Content Items that I've published, but after playing with it for a couple of hours, I find myself stuck.
I have a Data Entry template that just takes a name and a file, and a presentation template associated with that. But I can't figure out how to make the presentation template display a list of published content items associated with the Data Entry template.
I tried using the Tag Helper and I saw that the file properties were available, e.g. name, location, length, however I can't get the template to actually display the information.
Also, since I can't publish said presentation template (you aren't allowed to publish a presentation template associated with a data entry template), I have to make ANOTHER presentation template, and include the first one, and then make a new portlet that displays that second template. Is this how it's supposed to work? It seems awfully complicated for such a simple task.
I would greatly appreciate any input anyone can give. Thanks!

" I can't figure out how to make the presentation template display a list of published content items associated with the Data Entry template. "
While I believe that this is a correct statement, you can't use pcs:foreach to get all items associated with a DET, I think that what you really want is to display all the content items in a folder or in a list. The 2 ways I most commonly do it are:
use a list
1) create a DET for the main portlet item (for example, news stories) with a property of type list
2) create a DET for the type of item that goes into the list (for example, news article)
3) create a Content Item based on your main portlet item DET
4) add items to the list
5) iterate through the list in your presentation template (pcs:foreach expr="item.myList" var="mylistvar"...)
You can also tell each news article to automatically add itself to the news stories list. (Look in the DET for this setting)
use a folder
you can also just create your list items in a folder and then loop through the folder (pcs:foreach expr="folderByPath(item.folder,"folderName")"...

How to publish a File Content Item via EDK?

I'm trying to publish a "File Content Item" via the EDK.
CS EXPLORER
Recall, that a "File Content Item" is different than a (regular) "Content Item" in that (via CS Explorer) it's a content item with no user-defined data entry template (when you right-click, the "Edit Data Entry Template..." menu item is not listed). Yet, somehow, it can still be published (via the Explorer), --which is great because I need to FTP this file to another server.
EDK
However, even though the (file) content item's EDK "Publishable" property indicates "true", it cannot be published via the IContentItemManager.PublishContentItem() method, which is returning the following error message...
The required object was not found... content item... containing Data Entry Template... with attached Presentation Template (with UUID null)... (DataItemUuidNotFound...)
In other words, the File Content Item has a (system defined) "/Definitions/File" data entry template, which has no attached presentation template. This leads me to believe that File Content Items are published differently (than Content Items).
Or, is there a flag that I can pass along to "file_upload.jsp" to get it to auto-publish the File Content Item it creates?
thanks,
Michael

Hey there,
Animate doesn't publish to HTTPS, but this is something you can control on your own when uploading to a secure server. Also be aware that the Animate runtime is served over HTTP so you'll have to upload this component to serve from your server as well.

Editing a previously published content item results in no workflow applied

Hi,
We have developed numerous workflows, which are configured as default from New menu configurations.
We are seeing two issues:
1) Copying an existing content item, the assigned workflow to the New menu is not applied. This is apparently by design in 11g (did work in 7.x) according to Oracle support. We have raised a product enhancement request
2) Editing a content item which has passed through its workflow stages and has been published, the previously assigned workflow is not assigned.
Issue 2) is what we are looking into now. Apparently (again) this is by design.
Is there a common approach that people are using to resolve this issue, in that editing a previously published content item, those changes will be subject to the original workflow stages before it will be re-published?
We have heard mentioned of listeners or further stages in the workflow...
Thanks
