Problems with Approving Content

I have a problem when a person posts or edits content must be approved.
The other persons don't get a notifaction that content have to be approved.
And if the admin looks on the page and uses the approvement portlet there is nothing to approve.
In addition the content (i used normal textitem) can't be edited by anyone other.
Do i have to add the persons which should do the approvement to special groups or roles? Is there anything what i have to pay attention on?
Hope anyone can help and sry for my english.

hi,
As far as I know, for approval process to be run successfully, setup is required at the very start.
1. Under page group [Configure] tab, tick the [Approval and Notifications] checkbox.
2. Under [Approval] tab, design your approval workflow, ie. who will be the approvers and in what sequence.
3. Create a page under the same page group.
4. Under [Access] tab of the page, add users who can add/update contents to the page with "Manage items with Approval" privilege.
5. Add the "Edit" link on the page for the authorized users.
6. Add "My Notification" portlet for approvers so that they can be notifiied if any request of approval is outstanding.
That is what I do now.
Thanks

The problem is that when I try to search with this field it displays all entries(lines) without results and the one I search with results.
I want it to display only the entry I want, eitherwise it takes to long to display all thousands of entries.

Thank you

where you are trying to search using this field?
While fetching data from table have you used where condition...

I-Procurement problems with approval hierarchy - Urgent!! Please help!

Dear experts,
I am having a number of problems in i-procurement (12.1.3). When creating a Requisitions in i-procurement on the screen when it arrives with the approval list, it has retrieved a personel who is not in the hierarchy list at all. (not using AME just employee hierarchy)
I have checked the usual setting such as making sure the document type settings is correct and the position hierarchy for the position raising the requisition.
In addition to this once proceeding with submitting the requisition the created time is completly wrong. It is displaying a date occuring in the past. And in the Justification field it has already been populated it appears that it has captured information from a previous requisition. Furthermore in the created by field it also displaying a name of a different user to the one I am currently using.
I am out of ideas as to exactly what the problems is. Would appreciate if any I-procurement gurus can take a look at my issue.
Thanks and Regards
Ebsnoob

That sounds like a feedback loop.
Does the tone alter in pitch when you alter input and/or output levels or move your microphone?
And have you checked your coreaudio device in *Logic Pro>Preferences>Audio* ? And your recording settings in *File>Project Settings* ?
And how is your monitoring setup? Directly from the Presonus, or do you use *Software Monitoring* ?
Does the tone stop when you hit Pause ?
2nd possibility: a note event somewhere triggers a synth - but that would also happen in playback, so it is a long shot.... it does not happen in playback?
regards, Querik.
ps: the advantage of smashing up things is that then you are at least sure you can't fix it anymore. Better keep some broken stuff handy, because you'll regret smashing up working stuff.

Problem with Approval Group

Hi!
I have created an approval group using 3 Single Tiers.
When i run the process, and it is in the first tier, the first participant 'Reject' the task (I'm using an interface with ADF). After this, the process instance should finish, but, it continues the approval flow. Is that correct? I think that if the first participant reject the task, the approval flow should finish, isn't it?
Thanks for your attention.

Problem with approving standard workflows.

We are testing workflows in Content DB prior to initiating a larger project. We have defined a serial approval workflow for uploading a file to a folder. When a file is uploaded, the approver can see the request but is not given the possibility to approve or reject the request.
The approver has been granted "approval" role with standard permissions "Set Attributes, Set Metadata, Discover, Lock, Get Metadata, Get Content, Set Content, Copy".
What can be missing in our setup that blocks for approving in workflows?

A few things to check:
1) That a message appears (briefly) on the outbound advanced queue (IFS_OUT) when the workflow is triggered. You can perform a "select * from ifs_out_table;" You need to be quick though.
However, if there is a build up of messages on the queue, but none are being removed, it would appear the Oracle Workflow process is not running.
2) If the message appears on the queue (briefly), then disappears, workflow is correctly dequeing the message.
In order for the approve/reject buttons to become visible in the Content DB Web UI, Oracle Workflow must repond on the inbound queue (IFS_IN) with seperate "notification" messages for each of the applicable responders.
If "orcladmin" was a responder for the worflow, a queue message may look like :-
IFS Queue Message Details:
Message Type: IFS_ECM_WORKFLOW_NID
IFS Queue Message Parameters:
IFS_ECM_WORKFLOW_PROCESSID=48799 (STRING)
IFS_ECM_WORKFLOW_RESPONDER=ORCLADMIN (STRING)
IFS_ECM_WORKFLOW_NID=3 (STRING)
You will thus need to monitor the inbound queue table (IFS_IN_TABLE) - and see if Worflow is responding to the request with these responder notifications.
If workflow is not returning notifications for each responder of the original request, then the Workflow process has failed / or is not running. You will need to check with the Oracle Workflow guys on how to debug workflow further.
If however, the notification messages are on the IFS_IN queue, but are not being removed, it means the Content DB agent responsible for processing inbound queue messages is not running.
The agent responsible for this is the InboundQueueListenerAgent. Check the Content DB node log file and search for entries relating to oracle.ifs.management.servers.InboundQueueListenerAgent
You will notice a table in the Content DB schema named odm_responder
SQL> desc odm_responder;
Name Null? Type
ID NOT NULL NUMBER(20)
REQUEST NUMBER(20)
RESPONDERUSER NUMBER(20)
RESPONSE NUMBER(1)
RESPONSEDATE NUMBER(20)
NOTIFICATIONID NUMBER(20)
For a particular responder to see approve/reject buttons for a particular request, I believe the notificationid value has to be non-null.
BTW - the message on the IFS_OUT queue will look something like :-
Q_NAME MSGID
CORRID
PRIORITY STATE
DELAY
EXPIRATION
TIME_MANAGER_INFO
LOCAL_ORDER_NO CHAIN_NO CSCN DSCN
ENQ_TIME
ENQ_UID ENQ_TID

IFSQUEUEMESSAGEPARAMETER('IFS_ECM_WORKFLOW_MINNOVOTES', '1', 'STRING'),
IFSQUEUEMESSAGEPARAMETER('IFS_ECM_WORKFLOW_PROCESSID', '43446', 'STRING')))
Workflow must return a notification id message for each person listed in the IFS_ECM_WORKFLOW_RESPONDERS queue parameter.
in the case above, the requesters are "ASLAM, CONTENTADMIN, ORCLADMIN"
Using the request id from above ..
SQL> select responderuser from content.odmv_responder where request = 43436;
RESPONDERUSER
38503
...etc
select name from odmv_publicobject where id = 38503
NAME
orcladmin
select notificationid from content.odmv_responder where request = 43591;
NOTIFICATIONID
notice the notificationid is NULL - meaning approve/reject buttons would not be visible
cheers

Problem with approval - No matching records found 'Drafts' (ODRF) (ODBC -2

Hi Experts,
When an approval request comes to an approver, He is not able to open the document[Out going payment]. It shows the following error.
'No matching records found 'Drafts' (ODRF) (ODBC -2028) [Message 131-183]'
I tried with invoice and approval works fine there.
When I checked in the table, No records are added for Payments in ODRF file, But it goes to OPDF.
In the case of invoice, record is added to ODRF
Please Help
Regards
Ajith G
Edited by: Ajith G on Oct 23, 2009 2:05 PM

Hi Experts,
Now I configured the Approval of outgoing payment using a query which I got as a result of another post by myself.
SELECT DISTINCT 'True' WHERE $[OVPM.CashAcct] != '' and $[OVPM.CashSum] IS NOT NULL
Approval starts properly here also. But when approver tries to open the attached document to the message , error pops-up as given in the subject.
Please help

Problem with approval notification

Hi Experts
for some unknown reason we get in the process workflow the error like:
Activity Definition
Name Is Final Approver
Internal Name HR_IS_FINAL_APPROVER_FCT
Type Function
Description Is Final Approver
Activity Version 4
Result Type Yes/No/Error
Default Activity Result Exception
Message Name
Expand Roles No
Function Type PL/SQL
Function hr_approval_ss.isfinalapprover
On Loop Revisit Reset
Cost 0
Function activity cost in seconds.
Error Workflow System: Error
Looking in the Diagram, it looks like, that everything is fine.But i don't know, whta this error means.

In some cases, when the requester has no Supervisor to approve the request, than the process hanging due to IS Final Approver. In this case you must check, if the Approver has an user account in the core application.

Problem with approval

Hi everyone,
My AD Resource is configured to go through two approvals. one for supervisor and the second one is for user(always the same user). if the approver himself requests for the resource the resource should be auto-provisioned. but instead it still shows in the pending approvals and the user still has to approve this. Is this how oracle behaves or is there any misconfiguration here.
Thanks
asat

Well that's OOTB. If you want to behave it that way then you need to make proper configurations. Do it as follows:
- First task which assigns this request to supervisor remains as it is. Let's assume this is Supervisor Approval. This would always be called and assigns the task to Manager.
- After this task, call another task say Check Requester. In this task check the name of the requester and return as True or False for the requester being your pre-defined requester say User01.
- Based on response as false, call the third task which assigns this request to User01. For True just complete the approval process.
So now your request will not be assigned to the user01 if he is the requester as well.
Thanks
Sunny

Problems with itunes and ipod

If anyone can help me with this problem i would really appreciate it
The problem started about a week ago when i had just finished downloading some music off of morpheus. My computer displayed a message saying that I didn't have anymore space on my ipod, i knew this was incorrect because my ipod holds 500 songs and at the time i only had about 270 songs. Itunes displayed another message saying that it would select various songs to a new created playlist. The problem with this is it only put 70 songs back on the ipod. So I deleted it. The next day i tried putting more songs back on it, and i got another message saying that itunes was corrupt. Strangely, itunes wiped ALL my songs off my ipod. I have virus protection so i ran the mcafee virus scan, and no files were infected. Now Everytime I hook up my ipod to my notebook i get a message saying " Ipod cannot be updated because all the selected playlists for updating no longer exist." I have tried resetting my ipod, updating itunes, creating new playlists, and nothing just seems to work.
If anyone knows how to remedy this problem please let me know.
Thanks.

" Ipod cannot be updated because all the selected playlists for updating no longer exist."<<</div>
It sounds like you have the ipod set to automatically update selected songs and playlists only. Try placing it into a different updating configuration.
This article explains how to change the mode of the ipod:
