Configuration Manager API
Hi,
Does someone know if the Configuration Manager API is still supported in NetWeaver 2004 SP15? The com.sap.engine.frame.core.configuration package is still present, but I can't find any documentation.
That is, via SAP Help I do find this old (WAS 6.30) document: <a href="http://help.sap.com/saphelp_webas630/helpdata/en/a8/c7ccfd2ee40c438a4e0a21210baede/frameset.htm">Configuration Context</a>
And via Google I was able to find this recent (NW 04) document: <a href="http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/33/8439e52dc94c7192eb53f99854dfd6/content.htm">Opening a Configuration in Read or Write Mode</a> but when I use the search functionality in SAP Help it doesn't come up.
Besides, the API is not present in the <a href="https://media.sdn.sap.com/javadocs/NW04/SPS15/index.html">SAP Netweaver 2004 SPS 15</a> javadocs.
As a sidenote, would you recommend to use this configuration mechanism or use a framework like <a href="http://jakarta.apache.org/commons/configuration/">Apache Jakarta Commons Configuration</a>?
Kind regards,

Hi Siva,
The API version is hardcoded in Microsoft.ServiceBus.dll, which ships as part of the Service Bus. Each version of this lib has a different string.
If you install workflow manager 1.0, here are the pre-requisites:
.NET Framework 4 Platform Update 3 or .NET Framework 4.5
Service Bus 1.0
Workflow Client 1.0
PowerShell 3.0
The following are the pre-requisites to configure Workflow Manager 1.0
Instance of SQL Server 2008 R2 SP1, SQL Server Express 2008 R2 SP1, or SQL Server 2012.
TCP/IP connections or named pipes must be configured in SQL Server.
Windows Firewall must be enabled. [Windows Firewall is Off on target server]
Ports 12290 and 12291 must be available.
Here are the reference for installing and configuring Workflow Manager 1.0:

System Configuation API for Configuration Management
Hi all,
I've been toying around with the system configuration API for a little bit now and I see it as a great way for companies to use it as part of an overall configuration management utility. For example, if a customer wants to build up a new test rack with the same hardware aliases, configuration, and installed NI software then the system configuration API helps with most of this. I've already created a simple utility that can be used to query the currently installed hardware (of a local or remote system) and then programmatically rename the aliases based on a loaded configuration file or manual input. Likewise, the MAX export/import functionality can also be used. My application of this would primarily be non-RT and mostly PXI products but a good design could enable it to work for both.
So, my question to the community is actually on the side where I haven't used the System Configuration API yet which is querying the installed software on a system. The software querying functionality of the System Configuration API is really only geared towards RT targets and not Windows based controllers. I'd like to be able to export a list of installed software/drivers on an older system and then compare it with what is installed on a newer system to make it easier for customers to determine whether they have everything required. I know that the MAX export or report has a list of installed software but is parsing this the best way of retrieving installed software (It's a beast of a file)? Does anyone have a better method?

Solved!
Go to Solution.Not sure if the attached VI will work across various Windows OS's since it uses a powershell command and I also don't know how well the command used will work across 32/64 bit applications...But, so far this little VI I came up with is returning the software that I want to query. Hope this is usefull for others and, as always, suggestions for improvement are welcomed!

Configure hosted services verbose monitoring using REST management API
I know how to configure verbose monitoring for my hosted services in the management portal as described in: http://www.windowsazure.com/en-us/manage/services/cloud-services/how-to-monitor-a-cloud-service/
Is it possible to do the same using the management API? What is the REST command?
Thanks
Manu
ManuI don't think there's a public REST API available just yet for cloud services monitoring. Given that Windows Azure Portal is built on top of Service Management API, I'm pretty sure that there's an API beneath this monitoring but is not exposed just yet for
general consumption. I would recommend keeping an eye on Service Management API documentation page for updates:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windowsazure/ee460799.aspx
Hope this helps. -
I am polling Exchange Server to fetch all the mails left in the Inbox and then fetching them, processing them and finally moving them to the deleted folder. My procedure takes following form of EWS Managed API calls:
1 itemResults = service.FindItems(WellKnownFolderName.Inbox, itemView);
2 //some code...
3 service.LoadPropertiesForItems(itemResults.Items, itItemPropSet);
4 //some code...
5 foreach(Item item in itemResults)
6 {
7 //process item
8 item.Delete(DeleteMode.MoveToDeletedItems);
9 }
To test this code I flooded the inbox with 5000 mails, 5 threads flooding 1000 mails each at the interval of 4ms.
After test run, I realized some mails are getting processed multiple times.
When I read the soap traces logged using TraceListener, I realized that when there are more than 100 mails in the inbox, there are more SOAP packets were dispatched in burst of 100s.
Logically below set of SOAP Packets (let us call it "Set 1") should occur only once:
<m:FindItem>...</m:FindItem> //generated by line 1
<m:FindItemResponse>...</m:FindItemResponse> //generated by line 1
<m:GetItem>...</m:GetItem> //generated by line 3
<m:GetItemResponse>...</m:GetItemResponse> //generated by line 3
followed x number of Delete SOAP packets for x number of mails in the Inbox
<m:DeleteItem>...</m:DeleteItem> //generated by line 8
<m:DeleteItemRepsonse>...</m:DeleteItemRepsonse> //generated by line 8
However if there are say 325 mails in the inbox, then there first occurs 4 occurences of Set 1 followed by Delete SOAP packest as follows:
//1st occurence
<m:FindItem>100 items</m:FindItem>
<m:FindItemResponse>100 items</m:FindItemResponse>
<m:GetItem>100 items</m:GetItem>
<m:GetItemResponse>35 items</m:GetItemResponse>
//2nd occurence
<m:FindItem>100 items</m:FindItem>
<m:FindItemResponse>100 items</m:FindItemResponse>
<m:GetItem>100 items</m:GetItem>
<m:GetItemResponse>35 items</m:GetItemResponse>
//3rd occurence
<m:FindItem>100 items</m:FindItem>
<m:FindItemResponse>100 items</m:FindItemResponse>
<m:GetItem>100 items</m:GetItem>
<m:GetItemResponse>100 items</m:GetItemResponse>
//4th occurence
<m:FindItem>35 items</m:FindItem>
<m:FindItemResponse>35 items</m:FindItemResponse>
<m:GetItem>35 items</m:GetItem>
<m:GetItemResponse>35 items</m:GetItemResponse> //****followed by 335 occurences of the Delete SOAP packets****<m:DeleteItem>...</m:DeleteItem>
<m:DeleteItemRepsonse>...</m:DeleteItemRepsonse>
//334 more of above
So there are 100 + 100 + 100 + 35 = 335 items actually getting handled, which is 10 more than what are actually present in the inbox.
Also notice that Delete SOAP packets are queued till end. They are not dispatched in burst.
First thing I realize dispatching SOAP packets in burst of 100s is EWS Managed API behavior. I guess there must be traffic reason behind it and there must be some configuration setting to tweak it.
Q1. How can we change this count of 100?
I inferred that there are some overlaps in fetching of mails.
So I copy pasted SOAP Traces for first two of
<m:GetItem>100 items</m:GetItem>
in two different files, and compared them in text comparer. I realised that some mails that are at the end of the first 100s were reappearing at the beginning of 2nd 100:
This is the pattern in many test runs.
Due to this these overlapping mails, these mails are getting processed twice. Also the attempt to second time delete them was throwing exception : The specified object was not found in the store.
So I guess there is time delay in delete mail API call and mails actually getting deleted, between which they are getting refetched.
Q2. How can I handle this to avoid redundant processing of mails and unnecessary exceptions.I am polling Exchange Server to fetch all the mails left in the Inbox and then fetching them, processing them and finally moving them to the deleted folder. My procedure takes following form of EWS Managed API calls:

Hi,
I know there are other questions about ErrorAccessDenied but they are not exactly describing my situation and all are pretty much old and mostly not answered so forgive me for creating my own.
Also, wall of text coming so please bear with me.
We have an application that synchronizes Exchange items into our internal systems. Items created on Exchange are stored in that system and vice versa of course with a lot of business logic and rules, etc. Application uses EWS Managed API and impersonation
to access users mailboxes. Everything works fine but now we have this one customer that has a lot of strange things going on with main 2 problems mentioned in subject.
1. To ensure both sides (Exchange and our system) are in sync we have a functionality that allows users to decide that items no longer existing on Exchange should be removed also from system database. Since in our record we store id of original Exchange
item internal system simply sends us list of those ids to confirm items still exist. What application does is a BindToItems method call with BasePropertySet.IdOnly as requested property and depending on server response we notify internal system about state
of items. There is some semi complex logic behind what exactly is done on system side but in general NoError and item returned means item exists, ErrorItemNotFound means item doesn't exist.
For this one customer suddenly we started to receive ErrorAccessDenied and ErrorBatchProcessingStopped error codes which is very strange because seconds earlier there were events read from PullSubscribtion, items read from server, items created on server
and bunch of other stuff going on which basically makes me sure that impersonation is working. For some reason during execution of this particular code ErrorAccesDenied is returned and it messes up whole BindToItems call.
But what is really strange is that for first id in list of ids we get NoError and correct item returned, for second id we get ErrorAccessDenied, and rest of responses is ErrorBatchProcessingStopped. So is it really about credentials or there is some
completely different reason AccessDenied is retuned? According to customer those items exist in user mailbox for whom those errors are showing up. It doesn't happen for all users, only for some - who have exactly the same configuration of mailboxes as rest
(according to customer).
2. For same customer another problem started to occur since 1st of January, at least that is a date when they noticed it for the first time. Again, it happens for some users and there is no scenario that would guarantee to reproduce it.
When new record is created in our system or its data change it has to be created/updated on Exchange. With same impersonation as for problem described above I simply create new item or find existing item using id provided by our system, set item properties
according to whatever was sent and save/update item on Exchange. Simple and it works in multiple installations without problems.
But this customer reports that appointments created for one user show up in other users mailboxes which I find really strange because as far as I know when I impersonate [email protected] everything I do is executed in context of this one user only. So if
I create appointment in his calendar I cannot create same appointment in userB's calendar without explicitly switching impersonation to userB. What is worth mentioning during our sync process we store on Exchange items bunch of custom properties that help
us verify whole process and do various filters, etc. All of those custom properties are visible in outlook in that design form view or whatever it is called. And I have screenshot from user that claims to have one of those "not his" appointments
and basically half of our properties is not there and some have no values while they definitely should have otherwise whole sync would fail and everything is logged as successful.
Sorry for this wall of text but I really have no idea what can causing those strange problems so I tried to describe as much as possible without breaching NDA and such stuff. We added a lot of logging around areas where impersonation is changed, Exchange
items are created/updated, etc. Logs show nothing, of course.
So, for first issue: is it possible that items were moved on Exchange in such way that user still can see them but for EWS API call we get ErrorAccessDenied? I'm not sure where exactly could be such location because if id of an item would change we should
rather get ErrorItemNotFound or even something about id being not properly formatted, right?
For second issue: is it possible that there is something running on Exchange server and does some kind of simplistic mirroring of items between mailboxes? Customer claims there are no such things on server nor user side but can it be something that non-IT
people wouldn't know? Like some kind of script that admins like to run to keep server healthy or something innocent but lethal for our scenarios? Anybody has any hints what we should even ask customer about to get closer to solution of those mysterious problems?Were you able to figure what was going on with your first problem? we're seeing the exact same issue with one of our customers.

Configuration Manager Error - (-9986)Session to local database...
Hello guys, I'm with a little problem.
When I try to open the Configuration Manager in a Sprowler Server, and appears this error: (-9986)Session to local database could not be opened.
But i try to resolve this problem at ODBC Connection (ODBC Data Source). But all connections is ok.
I saw that some processes of distributor are oscillating(Distributor rclient). So I saw in distributor log this error:
10:24:49 dis-nm ICM\ucce\Distributor node error checking health of process rtc.
Last API Error [109]: The pipe has been ended.
10:24:49 dis-nm Process rtc on ICM\ucce\Distributor is down after running for 0 seconds. It will restart after delaying 1 seconds for related operations to complete.
But in SQL Server, the Named Pipes is enable, in second position. I disable the Firewall but no success.
I don't able to open the Configuration Manager. Somebody can help me?
Thanks.OK, very good.
Just so I completely understand this ... On the Distributor AW, part of your Sprawler, can you use the Config Tool OK? If so, this means that the real-time feed is established to the Distributor and it can see the local database and so on.
Is the rtdist process running?
Now on the AW Client. Assuming this is configured correctly, it connects to the Distributor. Check the rtdist process to see your client AW IP address connect. Do you see this?
(I feel like we have discussed this before)

Configuration management on Solaris 10 (something like Win Registry)
Hello,
We are currently in a process of porting a set of java applications from Windows to Solaris 10. Although the process is relatively straight forward we stumbled upon a problem with configuration management.
On Windows we rely on Registry to keep track of e.g. installed applications, java jdks etc. that is used by our own management software. Basically Registry provides an api to access a set of keys and values. Every installed application adds a key:value that will be picked up by the management software.
On the surface it appears to be no direct equivalent of windows Registry on Solaris. We can write our own e.g. file based database or use something like Electra.
Do I miss something obvious and there is something in Solaris that can be used to store global configuration information?
Thanks,
AlexeyFor tracking installed software in Solaris, I can think of a few items that may help.
1. /var/sadm/install/contents lists all the software packages and their contents. This is great for figuring out what file, binary, command came from what package:
grep /usr/bin/tip /var/sadm/install/contents
/usr/bin/tip f none 4511 uucp bin 56172 6659 1168034330 SUNWcsu
warning: grepping for just "java" here will give tons of output. The more specific the better.
2. /var/sadm/pkg will list all the packages installed on the system, even 3rd party packages.
3. /opt is the filesystem reserved for the so-called "unbundled" Sun products. For example, here is where you would find the Sun Ray server software directories ( /opt/SUNWut ......), the Serial Asynchronous Interface software (/opt/SUNWsaip . . . ), the old HP printer software (/opt/HPNPL . . ) etc.
Wouldn't this management software you mention have a version for Solaris 10 to do this for you? -
Looking for system management API like FT-1800 CMS(Configuration Management System)
This is very important facet to develop Telco market.
Pls mail me directly. [email protected]Not sure if the attached VI will work across various Windows OS's since it uses a powershell command and I also don't know how well the command used will work across 32/64 bit applications...But, so far this little VI I came up with is returning the software that I want to query.

Hi All,
After installing Java 6_31, Office 2010, Acrobat XI, and setting up the environment according to check list, no dice.
I ran the installer according to page 7 in UPGRADING TO ADOBE LIVECYCLE ES4 FOR JBOSS.pdf and on page 8, step 4, it doesn't give me the right screen.
I am currently running a very functional ES2 server in maintenance mode. 64-bit, Windows 2008 R2, JBoss, with SQL Server 2008 R2.
What might cause it to not see the existing server?
Thanks,
BroMattGoing through your notes, it looks like it would be OK (since it's only PDFG and RE), if you just create an empty database and use the Configuration Manager to create\update the appropriate table. Also, it is safe to re-run the Configuration Manager in order to point LiveCycle at a different database\database server OR manually change the datasources through application server console. Please make sure to look at the new ES4 API(in case you are using the LC APIs to invoke the services through your application) documents to check whether anything has changed and test yor application with ES4.

Issue 2: I'm trying to deploy a couple of Packages/Applications using SCCM 2012 R2 running on Win2K8 R2 with no luck, knowing that I could install the packages
on a test VM “in the DataCenter site”, but when trying to deploy the packages to production PC “in the Office Site”,
the status is packages deployment compliance stuck at 0%
Infrastructure:
3 SCCM servers: CAS, PRI & SEC. Both CAS and PRI are in the DataCenter site, and SEC is in the Office site. The office site has several IP subnets.
Boundaries are configured through Forest Discovery “IP Ranges and AD Sites” since that the AD site should contain all the IP subnets that the AD site contains, Boundaries groups are also configured and a site reference
server is configured for each group respectively.
A OU based Collection has been configured that contains 13 PC "the collection contains the PCs that the packages should be installed.
Packages/Applications are configured correctly since that I could successfully deploy the packages to the test VM which is on the same subnet as the CAS and the PRI servers "the DataCenter subnet". The issue
is that I can't deploy the packages to production PCs in the Office subnet!
Firewall rules are configured and applied via GP, and I even turned Windows Firewall off, and still nothing! I tried to manually initiate Computer Policy download via the SCCM GUI and via a script, still no luck!
I tried configuring IP Subnet Boundaries, still no luck!!
Here are the last 2 lines in the LocationServices.log of a client PC at the Office Site:

It looks like clients in the Office Site can’t connect to the DP/MP of the Secondary Site server which is also a DP.

Is there something wrong with the Distribution point on the Secondary Site server?
Please help…
Thanks..Update:
I fixed the issue with the default XXX00002 package - "Configuration Manager Client Package", it will not deploy to the Secondary Site DP. I did that through "Update Distribution Points" option, and after a while the status was 100%.
However; the second issue is still unsolved...
Please help.. -
I'm not exactly sure which forum heading this should go under so if this isn't correct please let me know or move it on my behalf.
So I am trying to setup Internet Based Client Management in SCCM 2012 R2 and have come across a few articles on how to do so. I think I have mostly gotten it to work but I seem to be having a client issue when deploying new machines. My already
deployed servers seem to have picked up the PKI setting no problem. In the past when I would deploy a new windows client everything would be fine. When i converted over to PKI in my test environment I am now having issues when I go to deploy a
new windows client. I don't get all of the Actions listed in the Configuration Manager control panel. All I have are Discovery Data Collection, Machine Policy Retrieval and Eval, User Policy Retrieval and Eval, and Windows Installer Source list Update
Cycles, before all of them would populate no problem. I have let this machine sit here for several hours and nothing has changed yet. It does say PKI for client certificate. Sometimes when I would deploy new machines it would say NONE for
Client certificate. In my production environment it says self-signed. I have found if i uninstall the client and re-install the client it does populate all of the cycles but I don't understand why it is not working on deployment.
Ok so maybe not all the time that when i reinstall the client it fixes it. I just did an uninstall and reinstall on a test client and all it has under actions are machine and user policy cycles.
Does anyone have any ideas?Hi,
I think SCCM client installed before the GPO applied, so you don't a certificate available when it is required.
You can export and import the certificate by using MDT integration, try this blog for PKI part:
How To: Build and Capture in Configuration Manager 2012 using HTTPS
And in addition, you can upload the log to your onedrive so you can share with us.

Unable to copy hidden package "Configuration Manager Client Package" to local DP
Content status lists it as successfully distributed to all DPs (including the local site server)
However, component status for SMS_DISTRIBUTION_MANAGER continually logs these events:
Distribution Manager failed to process package "Configuration Manager Client Package" (package ID = CDW00001).
Possible cause: Distribution manager does not have access to either the package source directory or the distribution point.
Solution: Verify that distribution manager can access the package source directory/distribution point.
Possible cause: The package source directory contains files with long file names and the total length of the path exceeds the maximum length supported by the operating system.
Solution: Reduce the number of folders defined for the package, shorten the filename, or consider bundling the files using a compression utility.
Possible cause: There is not enough disk space available on the site server computer or the distribution point.
Solution: Verify that there is enough free disk space available on the site server computer and on the distribution point.
Possible cause: The package source directory contains files that might be in use by an active process.
Solution: Close any processes that maybe using files in the source directory. If this failure persists, create an alternate copy of the source directory and update the package source to point to it.
NOTE: It appears to not be any of these causes.
If I look at the smsdpmon.log on the server in question, the following is logged every half hour:

http://support.microsoft.com/kb/811833) being enabled?
Nothing special with certificates; I've used the basic stuff for intranet management of clients.
The only related thing I can think of that may have affected this, is that I discovered earlier today that my MP installation got hosed (error 500) due to a broken client install on the site server itself. I uninstalled the client manually and the server
(as indicated by the component status views) appears to have repaired the MP install. Perhaps it didn't repair it completely? Would a site reset do me any good? -
Is there a way to configure managed properties on a superclass?
Hi,
I'm looking for a way to set a managed property on a superclass of a managed bean rather than setting it on every single managed bean extending that superclass.
Here's a simple scenario. I've got an application scoped managed bean called "configuration" which holds (what a surprise) some configuration. It is configured like this:
<managed-bean>
<managed-bean-name>configuration</managed-bean-name>
<managed-bean-class>myapp.model.ConfigurationModel</managed-bean-class>
<managed-bean-scope>application</managed-bean-scope>
</managed-bean>
Now I want to use this bean from within some other request scoped managed beans (Let's say bean1 .. beanN). Of course I could inject the configuration bean into every single bean like this:
<managed-bean>
<managed-bean-name>bean1</managed-bean-name>
<managed-bean-class>myapp.model.Bean1</managed-bean-class>
<managed-bean-scope>request</managed-bean-scope>
<managed-property>
<property-name>configuration</property-name>
<property-class>myapp.model.Configuration</property-class>
<value>#{configuration}</value>
</managed-property>
</managed-bean>
<managed-bean>
<managed-bean-name>beanN</managed-bean-name>
<managed-bean-class>myapp.model.BeanN</managed-bean-class>
<managed-bean-scope>request</managed-bean-scope>
<managed-property>
<property-name>configuration</property-name>
<property-class>myapp.model.Configuration</property-class>
<value>#{configuration}</value>
</managed-property>
</managed-bean>
The Java code of each bean would look like this:
public class Bean1 {
protected Configuration configuration;
public void setConfiguration(Configuration aConfiguration) {
configuration = aConfiguration;
public class BeanN {
protected Configuration configuration;
public void setConfiguration(Configuration aConfiguration) {
configuration = aConfiguration;
One enhancement of this approach obviously is to define a super class for the beans which holds the configuration variable and its setter to prevent duplicate code. This would look like this:
public class SuperBean {
protected Configuration configuration;
public void setConfiguration(Configuration aConfiguration) {
configuration = aConfiguration;
public class Bean1 extends SuperBean {}
public class BeanN extends SuperBean {}
And now for the real problem. I'd like to use the advantage of using a superclass in the Java code on the faces configuration aswell. That means, I'd like to define the dependency injection only once for all beans extending SuperBean and not for every single bean. Probably like this:
<managed-bean>
<managed-bean-class>myapp.model.SuperBean</managed-bean-class>
<managed-property>
<property-name>configuration</property-name>
<property-class>myapp.model.Configuration</property-class>
<value>#{configuration}</value>
</managed-property>
</managed-bean>
<managed-bean>
<managed-bean-name>bean1</managed-bean-name>
<managed-bean-class>myapp.model.Bean1</managed-bean-class>
<managed-bean-scope>request</managed-bean-scope>
</managed-bean>
<managed-bean>
<managed-bean-name>beanN</managed-bean-name>
<managed-bean-class>myapp.model.BeanN</managed-bean-class>
<managed-bean-scope>request</managed-bean-scope>
</managed-bean>
Of course this doesn't work because JSF does not lookup superclasses automatically. But I would be grateful if anyone has a solution or an idea for achieving this, because it would notably simplify the faces configuration.
These are the directions my own investigations took me so far:
- Using an "extends" attribute: <managed-bean extends="superbean">
This would be nice, but it would mean to use my own JSF implementation. I often use "extends" attributes on XML configurations, because it brings the pattern of inheritance with all its advantages to XML.
- Right now I'm checking if a custom PropertyResolver could do the trick.
Looking forward to your suggestions.
Regards
FrankThere is no way in the default JSF implementation.
You may consider to replace the getter by the outcome of FacesContext.getCurrentInstance().getExternalContext().getApplicationMap().get("configuration"); This will return the application scoped managed bean instance with the managed bean name "configuration". -
HOW TO CONFIGURE MANAGER or APPROVER USER IN ACCESS REQUEST MANAGEMENT TO APPROVE OR REJECT REQUEST
hi sap gurus,
i configured grc 10 system successfully. I created one user: GR_AR_APP001 and assign following roles:
SAP_GRAC_ACCESS_APPROVER
SAP_GRAC_ACCESS_REQUEST_ADMIN
SAP_GRC_FN_BASE
SAP_GRC_FN_NUSINESS_USER
and I maintained GR_AR_APP001 in access control owners as "POINT OF CONTACT", "SECURITY LEAD" and "WORKFLOW ADMINISTRATOR"
but when i am creating access request for new user and defining MANAGER under user details tab as GR_AR_APP001.
the user GR_AR_APP001 is not receiving any request for APPROVE or REJECT in his WORK INBOX.
can u please guide me how to configure APPROVER or MANAGER to approve or reject request.
I will be very much thankful if you guide me successfully.Hi Colleen,
thanks a lot for your time.
PIC1: I created one user: GR_AR_APP001
and assigned all the GRC ROLES.
PIC2: I assigned owner type to GR_AR_APP001 user : POINT OF CONTACT, SECURITY LEAD and WORKFLOW ADMINISTRATOR in NWBC ACCESS CONTROL OWNERS
PIC3: I created one EUP 980 (copied from default EUP)
PIC4: I maintained default manager as GR_AR_APP001 user in 980 EUP
PIC5: I selected SAP_GRAC_ACCESS_REQUEST process id
PIC6: I created one agent id as ZGRAC_MANAGER11 in which I added approver user id: GR_AR_APP001
PIC7: I saved agent id
PIC8: I added agent id as ZGRAC_MANAGER11 in stage5 in manager stage.
PIC9: I saved
PIC10: I maintained EUP 980 (in which I configured manager as GR_AR_APP001 user) in stage 5 task settings
PIC11: Maintain Route Mapping, I clicked on next
PIC12 and PIC13: I saved and activated.
After this process I created one request for new account and selected the manager as GR_AR_APP001 and one request is created with request no 9000000030.
now I logged into system by user GR_AR_APP001 and checked, there is no request under his work inbox.
please guide me at least one procedure, how to receive request in approver work inbox so that I can learn other procedures to configure approver as per our organization requirement.
thanks for your support Colleen.
