Changing "Runtime structure exists" flag in workflow builder header

Hello,
If I go on workflow builder, then if I got o header -> Version-Dependent (Current workflow version) -> Technical information, I see a check box called "Runtime stucture exists". If I want to uncheck it how can I do that. Its greyed out even when I am in change mode in workflow builder.
Regards,
Rajesh.

Could you elaborate, why you want that to be unchecked?
Flag indicates that there are workflow instances created and moved to Quality/Production.
If, you still want that to be unchecked try creating a new one.

Updated Latest End Time in workflow builder but change not taking place

Hello everyone,
In our existing leave application workflow (working fine for many years), we have set a deadline monitoring of Work Item Creation (WIS) + 10 days to send an email back to the applicant if his or her leave application wasn't acted upon by his/her supervisor.
Recently we have made some changes to the leave program and are required to test this deadline monitoring. In development environment instead of waiting for 10 days, we updated the Time field in the Latest End tab to 3 mins and then we generate and activate the workflow (through the Activation submenu in the Workflow menu).
Problem 1: But when the leave program generate the work item, inside the work item the Latest End date and time still show as WIS + 10 days, instead of WIS + 3 mins. We have already run SWU_OBUF and also refresh the organizational environment through SWUS but still to no avail.
Problem 2: When we change the Latest End date of the workitem to trigger the deadline monitoring, nothing happens even though the deadline monitoring batch job (SWWCOND & SWWDHEX) is already running successfully every 3 mins. In the executed action it just show 'Deadline reached' and the work item is in READY status.
In our work flow we have the process control to set the work item to obsolete. Really appreciate for any advice. Thanks.

Hi Rick,
Sorry, wrong choice of word. What i'm trying to say is as we don't have a workflow expert on our site, me and my colleague were a bit hesitant to manually change the work item deadline. But i see the benefit in doing that. At least now we know that changing the work item deadline would not affect the triggering of the deadline monitoring.
Hi Viji,
We haven't tied the changed workflow template to any transport request yet as we wanted to test it out in development environment first.
Sorry but how do i check if the outcome is active?
Hi Rob,
We didn't do any import. Since we're testing the changes in dev, we're directly changing the workflow template and activating it without tagging it to any transport request. But thanks for letting us know about table HRS1205, will give it a look tomorrow afternoon.
And also we're generating new work item for our testing. That's why we were surprise the new work item is still not picking up the WIS+3 mins latest end date.

Diff: Version on workflow builder and Maintain Active Plan version on SWU3

Group,
Can any one help me to understand the Version on workflow builder and Maintain Active Plan version on SWU3
Thanks in advance !
Richard A

Dear Richard Antony,
The Versioning in the Workflow is very important its some what simmilar to the version on any SAP Objets like Tables, Program etc.
Here Suppose any change comes in working workflow, then in stead of directly change them you can create a version of them and them modify it. So that you can reverst back to that version if required.
Like wise there is lots of importance of versioning Workflow.
The Active Plan version is also important to establish at SWU3. As all the Workflow is using Organization management which is very depended on the Active Plan version. so based on which Plan version you want to use you can Provide in SWU3 to tell Workflow system to use this.
Hope this will give you a clear picture.

Chandrashekhar.

Error while connecting to workflow builder after installation...first time!

Hi,
I have installed Oracle Workflow Builder 2.6.3 recently on my system and after installation, when I am trying to connect the workflow builder (using database username/password of that particular instance), it is throwing me the following error:
220: Unable to set NLS_LANGUAGE.
210: Oracle Error: ORA-01403: no data found
. SQL text: SELECT NLS_LANGUAGE FROM WF_LANGUAGES WHERE :l IN (NLS_LANGUAGE, CODE)
In the previous threads when I searched for the same issue, I found that if
select value from v$nls_parameters
where parameter='NLS_CHARACTERSET';
returns the value other then WE8ISO8859P1 then that is what I should change my NLS_LANG entry for the builder - i.e. AMERICAN_AMERICA.<character set>.
But I am not getting where should I change NLS_LANG, it is located where...some file? I am new to Workflow.
Please help me. I tried a lot. Any type of help will be highly appreciated.

Customized notification message template in Workflow Builder for iExpense

Hi Gurus!
I have a few requirements to change the notification format of the AME Expense Report Approval Message and one of which is to add a due date of the notification in the subject line of the email. So i have created a new message template, added in some attributes and point the notification to it. It works but in the email body it is missing some sections like the instruction text and the Previously Submitted Expenses section. The new message template has all attributes from the old message template so i'm expecting it to behave exactly the same.
We're on Oracle r12 and i use Oracle Workflow Builder 2.6.3.5.
Can you please help?
Thanks in advance.

Hi Patricia,
For
'358: Activity result code 'RESET' has no transition defined for it. All valid result codes must be modeled with specific transitions or a <Default> transition.',
you may have a function step defined in your workflow which could have a result type like 'Yes/No' but you may have defined the next step for the result type 'Yes' but not for 'No'. so you have to complete the flow for all of the result type of that function step.
for,
'383: Notification activity must be assigned a performer when used in a process.'
Open up the properties dialog of the notification in your process and click on the 'Node' tab, there at then end you can find a property called 'Performer' assign the following,
Type->Item Attribute
Value->Send to Role (or) Send to Email.
I guess this is a late response, but i just fixed these problem for my workflow and hence found your query !!

601 SAP Business Workflow - Build and Use

Please suggest if this class is good to get started in SAP workflow. Pre-requisite for this class is BIT 600. I am not taking that class. Can I do self study and pick it up?
Please suggest how I can get ready for workflow.

Hi,
Org structure needs to be setup by HR, but you can set up org structure yourself. Its not a big deal. 601 will go thorough this process. Also you can have workflows without org structure.
Go through this link
https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/70b074ac-fa1b-2a10-1587-bd084347fc56
On help.sap.com, there is a demo for an absence request workflow. If you go through them, it should give you an idea of all the basic tcodes including the creation of a HR org structure, workflow build etc.

Workflow Builder: RES file editing?

using Workflow Builder 2.0.3.8.3
Well, a client asked for us(private company) to get him a localized for Russia copy of WFB. The representatives of ORACLE in Moscow said that WFB have never been translated into russian.
I found some OCX files containing lots of resources. But it would take quite a time to
dig these files. And cheating is not good :)
Having known that our client asked us to translate the list of errors at least. Here is the problem for me - to find out where this list is. Recently I found a file in ..\wf20\res\us\ directory - WFUS.RES, containing error messages, i presume.
Have ORACLE any resource editing tool? Maybe WFRUS.RES already exists ?
(Sorry for my english)

Reset/change password error - cannot log in to builder - HELP!

I'm encountering the same problem I described some time ago here: Reset/change password error - cannot log in to builder
Briefly, the builder tells me I must change my password. When I attempt to do so, the password change page displays a null username, and tells me that my existing password is invalid. The same password failure occurs using the new password emailed to me by the "Rest password" function.
I've cleared my browser cache, closed the browser, rebooted my client (WinXP), to no avail.
Anyone able to help?
Thanks

Update:
Workaround: log in using a different client machine.
Scary.
It looks the same problem reported, without response, here: Apex.oracle.com SaaS Login - Must Change Password.

Workflow Builder Notification Performer Error

Hello,
I am working with Workflow Builder 2.6.3.5. I copied a voting notification, made some message and description changes, and added the copy into a process.
When I validate the process, it says "383: Notification activity must be assigned a performer when used in a process." When I go to the process where the original notification is, it has an attribute as a performer. But the copy does not have the attribute performer.
I have found a lot of information saying a performer can be a role or attribute, and to load roles, but it is not a role I want. How can I assign an attribute performer to this notification?
Thank you.

Kevin,
You should be able to assign the performer to an item attribute. All you have to do is create the item attribute and then go to the notification in the process and select the Node tab. Then select Item Attribute from list Type and then select the item attribute you created.
While you are able to create and use a text attribute it is recommended to use a Role type because it is consistent and later on, if you need to maintain users in the WF tables you will be able to find them easily. It is just the right way to do.
Regards,
Alejandro

Oracle Workflow Builder Concurrency

Hi All
We have Workflow installed in an Oracle9.2 database and have a few users using Workflow Builder to build workflows.
Unless I am missing something, it appears that the facilities for preventing workflow designers from clashing with one another and overwriting each others changes are fairly basic. There are no refresh buttons and it appears that provided you have a high enough access level you can easily overwrite someones recent changes.
The usual optimistic locking of checking changes prior to commit does not seem to be there.
Is this an oversight on Oracle's part (ie fairly new product and functionality may be forthcoming in future releases) or are we using the product incorrectly (ie you should not have multiple people designing the workflows)?
Apologies if this is a stupid question, but this is a new product to me that I need to support.
Thanks
KJP

Hi Kevin
If you were developing using wft files (not connected to the database except to upload), and had a source control system, then people would be checking the files in and out, then you shouldnt run into this issue. This would be the best way of building workflows in a multi developer environment. Connecting the database and uploading/downloading workflows is more of a developer convenience feature, not something for large scale development where you all might be modifying the same workflow.
Just as some background, Oracle Workflow is a core technology of the Oracle E-Business Suite, there are hundreds of workflows and many hundreds (at least) of developers using common development environments. So the product is deployed in very active development environments. Also, Oracle Workflow has been around ~8 years.
Cheers
