BSP link to Workflow task after transport - trans BDLSS

I was able to call a BSP from SAPGUI inbox (trans SBWP) by doing the necessary config in transactions WF_HANDCUST and WF_EXTSRV - generate my task from WF_EXTSRV, etc. The task was generated as a local object but I converted this to a transportable object.
This worked in our development system.
I need to get this into a test system and all the config/workflows was transported correctly. However the link between the bsp and task is not on table SWLWPTSSID as in dev 010.
Iu2019m trying to run transaction BDLSS or report RBDLSMAP to convert the table but that does not appear to be working. What table should I convert in trans BDLSS? Does anyone have any idea what Iu2019m doing wrong?

All,
Resolved this. Here is the solution -
It came down to bad/missing entries in table SWLWPTSSID. This is the table that links the web service maintained in WF_EXTSRV with the workflow task. As it is a client-dependent setting, when you transport the task and webservice you also need to adjust this table using transaction SM30.
Cheers, Liz

Project link in workflow task in PS 2013

Hi Folks,
I just created new WF using SPD and every thing goes fine.
I just wondering, when approver receives a tasks to take an action how would he/she know what project needs approval, except for the name. Meaning how can the user access details of project before approving it?
Following are workflows task and how I can get a link to that particular project for which the task has been generated.
Thanks, Kashif

I think that no possible with task text description, imho.
Maybe you can used own html for preview workitem - on workflow step goto Preview workitem and press Demo func modules. Select SWL0_PREVIEW_DEMO_HTML, for example. Now you can copyied this FM into own Z* and place static URL into FM body.
If URL must be dynamic - try create URL like SOFM object (FM SO_OBJECT_CREATE) and attach this BO instance to your workitem using SAP_WAPI_ATTACHMENT_ADD. This procedure can be placed in backround step of workflow.

Workflow issue after transport to QA system

Greetings,
After transport to QA my workflow does not execute the job I've assigned to my step.
I have a program assigned as a background job in a step that gets triggered by a typical workflow event.
I believe this is the first workflow for their system... and it's definately my first as well.
I can see the workflow executing using the trace.... but my job never runs.
I'm beginning to suspect I need to refresh the workflow buffer... but perhaps it's an authorization issue
Please advise...
Doug -

Doug:
First refresh the memory of the workflow to take the new changes ok, transaction SWU_OBUF.
Just to be sure, check the transaction SWU3 and check if everything is OK.
The posible authorization problem is for the User WF-BATCH, so check the authorizations for this user.
Best Regards,
Jessica

How to edit/modify workflow task after it has been completed?

My workflow spawns a couple tasks and once those tasks are completed, they become non-modifiable. If the user made a mistake by entering wrong details while completing the task and would like to change it later, he cannot do so once he hits the complete
button. This is happening in SharePoint 2010.
We were using SharePoint 2007 earlier when this wasn't the case. The tasks could be modified even after they were completed. I would like to have the same behavior in 2010 too. Please suggest how can I do it? There should be some task settings to enable
modification but I just can't find them.

Hi,
Thank you for your question. I am trying to involve someone familiar with this topic to further look at this issue. There might be some time delay. Appreciate your patience. Thank you for your understanding and support.
Thanks,

Incorrect Workflow version after transport

Hi,
A modification was made to the standard Booking Approval workflow (WS01200151). The changes were successful and a new runtime version was generated on the development system.
There seems to be a problem with the activation of Workflows transported to the QA system. After the transport no new version were activated on the QA system although the active version was included in the transport. (landscape: Development > QA > Production). I created a new version and also transported this, but the new version were not active. The status on QA was still "Runtime version, Saved".
I checked the transport log and there were no errors and all objects were moved to the QA system. However, when I check the workflow versions on QA, there are multiple inactive versions now QA. There are only 7 on development but there are about 60 on the QA system. The 2 workflows are not in-sync.
The QA system is not open for changes and it is not ideal to open it either because then we will have to open the Production system as well. Does anyone know why the active version were not transported and how to fix this besides opening the QA system for changes?
I am quite new to workflow and your help will be much appreciated.
Regards
Liza-Marie

Thanks for the feedback, I learnt something new.
The version in table HRS1205 on Development is 0007 and on QA it is 0006 and I executed function module SWD_WFD_REPLICATE_FROM_9999 but nothing is updated. I debugged the FM and found that it exits (without any exception) as the transport version details (date & time) is the same as the 9999 version (code line 91).
SWD_WFD_REPLICATE_FROM_9999 reads table SWDSHEADER and in this table the last version is 0182! I don't know how all the versions from 0007 and 0182 was created but this seems to be causing problems. I don't want to write a program to delete those redundant entries as I'm not sure what the impact would be. Do you know if there is a FM to delete the entries from table SWDSHEADER or any other table that would get rid of these versions?
To answer your question, I can view the WF in PFTC, there are no messages.
I will check OSS if I can find something.
Thanks for you help, it's much appreciated.

BSP pages in test system after transport have same URL as development

Hi. I have just transported some BSP's from our development into our test system and have encountered a problem.
The URL's of each page is the same as it was in the development system, so when we try and use the pages in the test system we get a "service can not be reached" error.
I am relatively new to BSPs and this is the first time I have transported them. I presumed the URL would update to reflect each server.
Have I missed a setting or something? I searched on SDN but could not find a similar post.
Thanks a lot for your help.
Regards,
Dave.

Hi,
check whether the service is active in transaction SICF
(it may become inactive, when there is patch applied, upgrade , etc)
then you will get one screen there then what you need to do is
without entering anything just click execute and expand the tree to
default_hots->sap->bc->bsp->sap-> under this node you should be able to see your BSP name . right click on it and click activate.
here The BSP Name is nothing but the BSP Application name. When you create a BSP applicaiton, a SICF service is created along with the BSP application. All the request that the user makes to this BSP application is processed by the service only with the help of this corresponding SICF service.

Related Item link is broken in DispForm.aspx for a task in Workflow Tasks list if file name contains " ' " (single quote)

Description:
We have created a custom workflow in Microsoft Visual Studio 2013 and SharePoint 2013. This Workflow is associated with a Document library.
This Workflow starts as soon as any new item is created OR updated in Document library and creates a Task in Workflow Tasks list.
Related Item link is not working in following scenario -
Upload a file that contains “ ' “
in its name, in a document library
Navigate to Workflow Tasks list
Open View Item form (DispForm.aspx ) of Task Created by workflow then click on link in Related Item fields
OUPUT:
Related Item link truncates after “ ' “
Eg.
Original Link: http://<Site URL>/Documents/te'st.txt
Related Item Field: http://<Site URL>/Documents/te
Is this known bug in SharePoint 2013 OR any hotfix available to fix it.

Hi,
As I tested per your description, I can reproduce the issue as well.
From what I have found out, it seems SharePoint resolve single quote into different code in different place. During the test, if I set Task Name to Document Name, single quote will be resolved to ' , if I set some field to Document encoded URL, single
quote will be resolved to %27 . For now, I haven't found out any article talking about this issue.
As workaround, we may find out a way to change the Related Item field. However, it is OOB field in workflow task (SharePoint 2013) content type, and this content type cannot be modified in form.
I'd suggest you add new column to get document url and place in the form in Task content type settings.

Error in transporting WF workflow task

Hello,
I face an error when moving WF workflow task from Dev to QA.
System is 4.0B.
The QA transport log shows (errors in bold):
Subsequent processing RH_ACTIVATE_PDOBJECT_AFTER_IMP for PDWS T started at 20:23:01
Time... 20:23:02 Run time... 00:00:01
Start activation of object WF 91000095 (client: 100) 202302
Error while activating
Time... 20:24:00 Run time... 00:00:58
Errors occurred during post-handling RH_ACTIVATE_PDOBJECT_AFTER_IMP for PDWS T
Post-handling RH_ACTIVATE_PDOBJECT_AFTER_IMP belongs to development class SP00
The errors affect the following R/3 components:
 BC-BMT-OM (Organizational Management)
In QA, the new version of the WF - created and activated in Dev - does not appear at all. I checked OSS Note 138411 - Collective note: PD Transports and OSS Note 88180 - Error during import postprocessing (Org.unit) but they didn`t help.
In Dev, the new version of the WF was saved and activated and manually inserted in a customizing request from tr. PFTC. The transport included object R3TR TDAT PDWS with entries for HRP, HRT and SWD_* tables, with records for the WF task.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks and regards,
Krisztian

Hi Ravi,
WS and TS tasks are recorded in changes, only the WFs and Ts are not. This is because some Personal Development objects are not to be transported, hence automatic transport connection for these is deactivated in IMG. Since WFs and Ts are considered as PD objects, the automatic transport is deactivated for them as well. For WFs and Ts manual transport is available in PFTC.
This is unfortunate but this is how it`s set.
On the other hand, version management is not something that works too well for workflows anyway (at least in 4.0B). You can`t see the differences in two separate versions like you would in a program. And in WFs and Ts you are able to generate versions just like for WSs and TSs for version management. So from my point of view manually transporting WFs and Ts are not the issue. But I may be wrong...
Nevertheless I activated automatic transport connection and did a change in Dev like that. The transport created was moved to Acc, but still same problem...
So I`m running out of clues.. maybe I just overlooked something...
Thanks
Krisz

Why do I not get the checkout option for a pdf type document when clicking on the document link in the SharePoint workflow task?

We are trying to use workflows to review and edit pdf files in sharepoint 2010. We are having a couple of issues and am hoping someone has the answer.....
1) When myself and coworkers click on the pdf document in the library, we get the check out option as expected. However when we click on the document
link in a workflow task (on the sharepoint site), the pdf opens as a temporary file and we do not get the check out option. Why does this happen?????
2) The same thing happens when we click on the document link in the workflow task email; HOWEVER, one of our co-workers does get the
check out option when clicking on the link in the email task. Why would she get the checkout option using the email and not when clicking on the link in the task list on the sharepoint site ???? We have compared our internet settings and adobe
settings to ours and found no differences.
We are using Sharepoint 2010, Windows 7, IE8, Adobe Reader X or XI. Some of us have Adobe Pro X and have the same issues.

Hi,
According to your post, my understanding is that you could not get the checkout option for a pdf type document when clicking on the document link in the SharePoint workflow task.
I try to reproduce the issue, however, no matter when I click the pdf type document in the library or click on the pdf document link in the workflow task email, it download the pdf doucment and then I can open it.
It will be better if you can descript how you
get the check out option as expected when you click on the pdf document in the library.
Then I upload a
word type document to the library, no matter when I click the word type document in the library or click on the word document link in the workflow task email, I can open the word document directly and get the check out option as expected.
I recommend to use the other type docuemts to check whether the check out option works.
Thank you for your understanding.

No the person who can check out using the link in the email has the same permissions as me. We have looked at all kinds of settings, profile etc and nothing evident can be determined to explain the reason. However, one difference we did notice is that this person does not have a default web browser set and thus when clicking on items to open, it always pops up a dialog box asking which program to use to open it with. This person chooses Adobe Reader and it opens on the Sharepoint server as it should and she gets the checkout option in a dialog box just like clicking on the document in the library. My theory is that this step of choosing the program to open with is interrupting the typical way a pdf file is handled when clicking on URL links to the document, which is…. it is opened as temporary internet file rather than on the Sharepoint server. Hopefully someone can figure this out ☺

Sharepoint 2013 designer workflow auto approve task after due date is passed

sharepoint 2013 designer workflow auto approve task after due date is passed.
Could we approve the task automatically once due date is apssed?
MCTS Sharepoint 2010, MCAD dotnet, MCPDEA, SharePoint Lead

Hi Amit,
If your task is created by a workflow (first) and stored in a separate task list, you can create another workflow on this particular task list, then each workflow instance would check if current task is expired (not approved/rejected), then
determine if update current task's "Task Outcome" as approved (and update task status as complete), and then create a retention policy on this paricular task list to trigger the workflow on due date .

Sharepoint 2013 Custom Workflow - Email link to EditForm.aspx for Workflow Task

I have created a custom workflow which starts a task with one or two users once a form is submitted. These users receive an email with a link to the task that has been created. The problem is it doesn't open the edit form for the task it just
links to the displaypage.asp for the task. This is causing all sorts of confusion so I just wanted to change the link to the edit form instead.
It seems simple enough but I just cant find a way to do it?! I am a beginner in this stuff so I have no visual studio experience and have designed all this using SPD 2013.
Is there an easy way around this? Any help would be greatly appreciated!

MSS Approval Report Links to Busines Workflow Task in UWL

Hello All,
I have a scenario below that I'm hoping you can help.
I copied the standard business workflow task "TS31000007: CATS Approval by Supervisor" to create our own task (general task) and link the 'CatManagerApprove' application and 'sap.com/msscatapproval' package to this task in the Workflow Visualization Configuration.
We then assigned this new task to the time data entry profile for the portal. Once, employee released the working time, the task is created and send to the Universal Worklist.
The manager can then access the UWL and open this approve time workflow task. This task is open to the MSS Approval Report (similar to what appear under the MSS > Tasks > Approve Time by Manager).
However, I have copied the Approve Time by Manager to our own and changed some of the order of the column and header text and assigned to the MSS role.
I would like to have this CATS approval task open to the same approval report view/layout as in the MSS Approval Report.
I've tried to change the layout (column order) through portal contents of the standard MSS Approval Report because I thought it was reading from there, but it's not.
Does anyone know how this can be done or where to point to the MSS Approval Report on the portal.
Any help would be appreciated!

Hi Karri,
We were able to use the launch iview task to launch our specific iview but I cannot seem to get it to recognize the workitem. In other words, when I click on the task in the UWL, my approve working time iview appears but it does not have the data that is from the workflow task item. Attached is the XML code that I used:
<ItemType name="uwl.task.webflow.TS93000001.SAP_ECC_Financials" connector="WebFlowConnector" defaultView="DefaultView" defaultAction="launchIView" executionMode="default">
 <ItemTypeCriteria systemId="SAP_ECC_Financials" externalType="TS93000001" connector="WebFlowConnector"/>
 <Actions>
 <Action name="launchIView" groupAction="" handler="IViewLauncher" returnToDetailViewAllowed="yes" launchInNewWindow="yes" launchNewWindowFeatures="resizable=yes,scrollbars=yes,status=yes,toolbar=no,menubar=no,location=no,directories=no">
 <Properties>
 <Property name="newWindowFeatures" value="resizable=yes,scrollbars=yes,status=yes,toolbar=no,menubar=no,location=no,directories=no"/>
 <Property name="page" value="pcd:portal_content/net.saccounty.SacCounty/net.saccounty.approve_ts_data"/>
 <Property name="openInNewWindow" value="yes"/>
 <Property name="display_order_priority" value="5"/>
 <Property name="workitemId" value="${item.externalId}"/>
 </Properties>
 <Descriptions default=""/>
 </Action>
 </Actions>
 </ItemType>
I thought the line <Property name="workitemId" value="${item.externalId}"/> would pick up the work item ID, but it is not working. Any suggestions?
TS93000001 is our task. approve_ts_data is our iview. It opens in a new window correctly and goes to the correct iview, just is not the actual task data.
Thank you,
Mark.

Workflow completing after one task

Hi,
I have a simple approval and Pricing Record creation workflow.
1. The Employee submits a request for pricing record creation. ( Through EP )
2. The Manager gets the workflow task in his Inbox ( TSXXXX1)
     This Task has 5 outcomes of which only 2 are activated in the WF ( Approve , Reject )
3. On approval :
              a. The Request information is updated with the latest Status in a ZTable (TSXXXX2)
              b   The Pricing Record is created in VK11 ( TSXXXX3)
4. On Rejection:
              a. The Request information is updated with the latest Status in a ZTable (TSXXXX2)
              b   An Email is send out to the Employee with the MAnagers comments for rejection
At this point on creation of Request the Manager gets the email in his workplace but on Approval or Rejection the WF goes to completed status after bypassing the successive steps of 3 and 4 mentioned above.
Any idea why it is bypassing those steps.

The steps should be parallel and not successive.Can you make sure you have 3a and 3b under 3 and same for 4a and 4b to be under 4.
If the above is OK then let us know the outcome when it is approved for example.

BPS - Regenerate a BSP after transport

Hi all,
We are currently experiencing the problem that after transport from D to Q, our BSP's are not being regenerated automatically.
So, although the correct configuration (in the WIB) is to be found in Q after transport, the ABAP workbench view of the same BSP is still reflecting the pre-transport configuration.
Any ideas please....?
Thanks,
Rael

Hi Alessandro,
Whenever I generate the BSP in the WIB(web interface builder) it prompts for a transport.
When you say the BPS transport manager, do you mean the transport manager found in tx code BPS0....? I don't see the possibility to transport web interfaces from this transport manager...?
Thanks,
Rael
