Criteria workflow -in between steps

Hello,
I have a criteria workflow with two documents linked together (through a custom component). I want them to be approved together.
One document cannot leave the step without the other one.
How could i send one of them, after being approved by User1 in an "pending/waiting" state (or at least remove it from his "Worklist Assigments"), somewhere between the steps.
I want the document out from the User1's "worklist assignments" but not in the User2 "Wk assignments", untill the second document isn't also approved by User1.
Is there something like dStatus = "pending" in basic workflows ?
Can anyone help me , pls ?

One thing I've done in the past is to use the extra exit conditions or additional update event criteria (code) to hold the docs in place until I want them to move.
I might do something like this:
1) create a companion file variable to act as a flag stating when it has been approved.
2) because the update event evaluates in the event of an approval write some event script that a) looks for the approve event b) if found checks for any other constraints - like a linked document that has not yet been approved c) sets the "I have been approved" flag .
In your example, Doc 1 is approved but the extra exit condition looks for the"I have been approved" flag for itself AND it's linked file, Document2. When Doc 2 is approved the code extra exit condition sees that both Doc 2 AND Doc 1 have been approved and allows them to progress.
It is best to think of workflow steps as logic containers rather than sequential events. Using jump logic you can trigger the movement (flow) of documents to any container you want and under the conditions you specify (such as only when my linked file is also approved).
hope this helps.

  • Workflows stuck between steps not on steps

    Hi
    We have upgraded from 4.6 to version 6 and erp2005 portal. The problem we are having is that a few of our old workflows seem to get stuck between steps and not on the step itself. 2 examples, the old sub workflow for to lock employees gets stuck on the arrow in the graphic between 'find employee' and 'lock employee' similarly if a 'process control' sets a work item to 'obsolete' to cancel it the process cancels the work item but does not fully exit the obsolete process branch and is stuck there on the arrow in the swi1 graphic. The workflow status is 'In Process' no errors are given.
    Any ideas? Are there maybe notes that have to be implemented to correct a bug in the system?
    Maximum points awarded for this. Thanks!

  • Relationship between the workflows what have been triggered frm parent workflow using container step

    Hi All,
    There is a scenario in CQ5.5 where "Workflow A" has container step to initiate another "Workflow B" from it. Now the requirement is to identity the Workflow A's instance ID in "Workflow B".
    Being quite unable to find any relationship between the workflows what have been triggered from parent workflow using container step.
    Could any one share the pointers for the same?
    Thanks in advanced.

  • Start Criteria Workflow by Update metadata

    Hi,
    The criteria workflow starts by checkin the document. But I would like to start the criteria workflow by update metadata, no checkin.
    Do you have a trick, how can I do it?
    Thanks
    Martin

    Hi again,
    On second thought, you don't need filter at all (if you are curious, check the documentation that comes with Need to know component, in essence, there is a filter which triggers on each metadata change, and in binder you can work with old and new metadata values).
    Here is the proposal of your WF:
    - Initial step - author holds the document, until metadata is changed.
    - In entry event of the initial step, you could call wfReleaseDocument(), in order for your doc to be indexed.
    - In update event of the initial step, you should query for the relevant metadata value and proceed to the next step only if it equals to "Comment process" or something like that.
    However, if you want to enable author to create new revisions (through Check Out), I believe that standard WF functionality regards content as approved as soon as new revision is created. So, you should probably add one step between initial step and your Review steps (onwards) and get back content to initial step again, if metadata value is not "Comment process".

  • How to convert a word document to PDF from a criteria workflow

    Hi,
    How to create a new revision in PDF format from a word document inside a criteria workflow? The inbound refinery converts documents to PDF automatically upon check-in, but I want to make the conversion in a specific step of a workflow.
    Thanks,
    Miguel

    You could write a custom service and execute it within the workflow script using the executeService Idoc function.

  • Oracle UCM custom Criteria Workflow

    I am looking for some help.
    I am trying to create a criteria workflow based on a document type. I have used the command wfrelease to commit all metadata to the repository in the entry step.
    The user in the workflow will either approve the workflow or select from a custom metadata field option list called "status". Once a user sets the value to "rescan" in the "status" option list I want the user to reject the workflow. Once rejected we want the workflow to be sent to an alias and not the original author.
    If the user sets the value of the "status" option list to either "return", "reroute", or "invalid" value and rejects the workflow then I want the workflow to be routed to a different alias.
    Is this very difficult to accomplish? What steps would I need to create? I am pretty sure somehow I need to create tokens for the 2 different aliases and call them on reject but I am having trouble putting all of this together.
    Thanks in advance for your help!

    Hey Data Bitz
    The good news is that yes, all this can be done with some configuration and a bit of workflow scripting.
    Several items:
    1) I'm not seeing a reason why you need to use WfRelease in the entry step. Workflow users can still access and alter the metadata for routing as you describe. Do you want the item to be indexed (to appear in the search results lists)?
    2) While there are several ways to do this I would envision a two step workflow. Step one is your "rejection handler" step 2 is your user review step.
    first time through content passes through step one with a criteria based jump in the entry event of that step. The criteria is along the lines of if step entry count <= 1 then jump .
    Make sure that step one is an edit and review step. Step two is where the user either approves or sets the status metadata field to some other value. If s/he approves, the content is released (or goes on to subsequent steps).
    If the status is changed then you want to trigger a rejection. This brings me to point 3...
    3) Do you want "rejection" or do you just want to rout the content to another set of users for review. The reason is that rejection is logged as a "rejection" Workflow Action in the database. If you are tracking or reporting against this then you'll want a "real" rejection. If you just want the item to be routed to an alias that is based on the value of the status field then this is different and can be achieved without a full blown rejection action. The choice is yours and the impact is really just on reporting and the routing behavior of the content object.
    4) so lets say the user sets the status to "rescan". Remember we're in step 2 here. Use the update event of step 2 to look for the Metadata Update action. Because the update event of the workflow step acts like a loop it is able to pick up the metadata updates that the user executes. Configure a jump in the step event to say +if there has been a metadata update action then check the value of the status metadata field.  if the value of the status metadata field is "rescan" then perform this action, if the value of the metadata field says some other value (either "not rescan" or "return", "reroute" etc) then perform this other action+
    5) So if you really want a true rejection then the this action from above will be a bit of IDOC to execute with WFREJECT service. You'll need to pass along the appropriate parameters for the service (see pp 348/349 of the services reference guide for the WF_REJECT service and required parameters. The guide is here: http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E10316_01/cs/cs_doc_10/documentation/developer/services_reference_10gr3en.pdf). If you just want to route the content to another set of users then the this action and this other action are actually the same and you can jump back to step 1 with a jump script. While the actions are the same, the users will be different and we can handle this with some basic workflow configuration scripting as well. Now here is where the fun begins.
    6) So you're back in step 1 either because the WF_REJECT action happened or because you jumped here. The status field set to "rescan" or some other value like "return", "reroute" etc. Go back int the entry event of step 1. This is where the pass through code from item 2 above was written. The cool thing about the entry event is that it gets evaluated BEFORE step users are set and email notifications go out. This means that you can set any kind of user decision logic right in the event. So beneath the pass through code I would create another block of workflow scripting that does the following: gets the value of the status field - you can do this simply by referencing the metadata field name - e.g. myVar=xStatus. If myVar="rescan" then set a companion file variable to the name of the alias you want - e.g. +<$if myVar="rescan"$><$wfSet("reviewerAlias","YOUR_ALIAS_NAME")$><$endif$>+ If you're unfamiliar with the companion file, see pp 18 of the workflow implementation guide (link below). Think of it as a temporary memory cache for each item in workflow. It is a place where any key value pairs can be set and retrieved for any document as long as it is in workflow. Keep setting the value of "reviewerAlias" to the different alias names based on your IF condition. for example:
    +<$if myVar="rescan"$><$wfSet("reviewerAlias","YOUR_ALIAS_NAME")$><$elseif myVar="return"$><$wfSet("reviewerAlias","YOUR_OTHERL_ALIAS_NAME")$><$endif$>+
    7) Finally you have the content in the right step, you have evaluated the metadata and have set a variable in the companion file with the correct alias name you want to be the users for the step. The last thing is to retrieve that alias name and set that alias as the step user. Remember that workflow is able to set either individual user names (singly or CSV) or ALIAS names as step users. Remember that an alias in UCM is a list of user names. You will use a token in step 1 to retrieve the value of the companion file key and set the alias to be that user. The token code is straight forward but if you want a walk through then check out the adding ad hoc step users section in chapter 9 of the workflow implementation guide here:
    http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E10316_01/cs/cs_doc_10/documentation/admin/workflow_guide_10gr3en.pdf
    Your token code will look something like this:
    <$wfAddUser(wfGet("reviewerAlias"), "alias")$>
    The wfAddUser function is the token code. It is what adds the step user and it take two parameters - parameter 1 is the name or names of a user or alias. parameter 2 is the type either "user" or "alias".
    So this give you a fully dynamic workflow that allows the routing of the items to be fully dynamic and driven off of metadata - something that is very easy for end users. It also allows the reviewers to be dynamically set using tokens and a bit of idoc. No coding outside of the workflow admin applet has to happen at all.
    Of course, my company, Fishbowl would love to talk with you more about what you're doing and see if we can provide any additional service to you. Please let me know!

  • Criteria-Workflow to start BPEL-Process

    Hi,
    I'm currently building a proof of concept for a wokflow-implementation using WCC and Oracle SOA/BPM-Suite. Therefore I've activated the BpelIntegration component of WCC and set it up as described in http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E21764_01/doc.1111/e16759/c03_config_ucm_bpel002.htm.
    However I'm a bit confused of the meaning of the users I assign to the criteria-workflow (according to http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E21764_01/doc.1111/e16759/c04_config_cs001.htm).
    I've assigned an "Additional Exit Condition" with the rule "wfGet("conversationId") and obIsInstanceClosed("process_3", wfGet("conversationId"))".
    As far as I understand this, I must at least assign one user. If I then choose to say at least 0 (Zero!) approvers, I've got the following behavior: The BPEL-Process is started, however the the WCC-Workflow ends immediately. There is no waiting for my additional exit-condition.
    If I choose 1 approver, the workflow waits for both the BPEL-Instance to get closed and the assigned user to approve.
    Is there an easy way to wait for the BPEL-Instance to close but not for the user to manually approve? I thought of doing the approve programmatically using WCC-Webservices from my BpelProcess, however this is not really what I would like to do. The reason I'm asking for this is that this would allow it to do the more document-centric parts of the WF in the Criteria Workflow while doing the approval itself completely in BPEL.
    Any best practices or hints regarding this? Or is there some additional documentation or samples? The only doc I found is the "Oracle® Fusion Middleware BPEL Component Guide for Content Server" that doesn't cover much details.

    Hi Johannes,
    I understand your point. To clarify I will guide you a bit through history.
    At Stellent times, prior to acquisition, native workflows (criteria and basic) were the only OOTB mechanism to implement workflows. Note that unlike BPEL and now even BPM workflows, native workflows have also impact on items behavior in the system - the item has a special status (REVIEW, not DONE or RELEASED), is not searchable, etc. The obvious disadvantages of native workflows are:
    - they are old fashioned (no graphical design)
    - they are proprietary (for everything, but the linear flow you need an idocscript)
    Also, at the time of acquisition, Oracle had more than 10 workflows engines. Therefore, shortly after that it has been announced that WCC (UCM at that time) will contain restricted use of BPEL PM (the BPEL runtime engine + free JDeveloper for design) to enrich workflow design/runtime experience. There are two possible ways of usage:
    - the way you described (start a criteria workflow, handover to BPEL and somehow synchronize the two), or
    - you do everything in BPEL and call UCM via web services. Note that this way you lose the status-related functionality
    I would not dare to comment on best practices, but it seems that in reality you have two options:
    - call a web service from BPEL (at the end of BPEL workflow) to approve/exit the native workflow
    - set a flag (also via a web service) and on the UCM side implement an idocscript (most likely Additional Exit Condition) to auto-approve the workflow, or process to the next step, if you will
    Note that the way when you do everything in either WCC, or BPEL has another reason: WCC native workflows have its own GUI, and BPEL worklists are not OOTB integrated into WCC's interface. This has changed already, since introducing the umbrella WebCenter concept. Note, however, that the front-end product where these two meet is WebCenter Portal, not WebCenter Content.
    Furthermore, for about a year ago Unified BPM Suite, which is the flag ship in BPM for Oracle, has become a part of WCC license. I did some survey on this point and it seems it's not easy (if possible at all) to bind criteria workflows with BPM ones. There is, however, a referential presentation which demonstrates how to add a document(no statuses, no workflows in WCC) to a BPM process, and this seems to be the way (no guarantee!) where the products aim.
    I have also noticed that whilst in PS5 ( http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E21764_01/ecm.htm ) the BPEL Component manual is still present, in PS6 ( http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E23943_01/webcontent.htm ) it has disappeared.
    I am eager to hear the news from product management.

  • Criteria workflow questions

    OK, so by my previous postings it is probably obvious that I am fairly new to UCM and Records Managment. I have a new challenge and feel stumped.
    So, there are three custom metadata fields. One is called 'Reminder Expiration Date' the others are called 'Record Keeper' and 'Record Keeper Email'.
    When checking in a new record, all of these custom fields are required.
    The purpose of these fields is to notify the record keeper via their email on the reminder expiration date.
    So I did a lot of reading and think that I need to create a criteria workflow. I went through the process of creating a template and the criteria, but I know I am misisng some significant informaiton. Can anyone give me a little more help here on how I would create a workflow that is triggered off of the 'reminder expiration date' and gets sent to the 'record keeper email'?
    ok, just wanted to add in a little more.... so I am thinking that in the step event script I would enter something like this in order to notify the record keeper..
    <$wfNotify(wfGet(xRecordKeeper),"user")$>
    As always, your help is greatly appreciated!

    Criteria Workflow: I'll assume you already get how content joins the workflow (via simple metadata criteria).
    You made the three fields in question required, which is great. Now we can always assume they are present. You might want to work on some custom validation for them to ensure cleaner data, but that's another story for another day. Workflows have something called entry, update and exit "steps". The update step executes roughly once each hour. In that step you can write iDocScript. You will have access to the metadata about the document (including your three fields). You could check to see if the current date exceeds the date in the metadata field. If so, you could send an email, perhaps with the wfNotify iDocScript function. Then, maybe you could blank out the expiration field? Not sure. You would need some way to say "Hey, this has been sent alreadY" because that update cycle is going to keep kicking off each hour after that.

  • Criteria Workflow emails - FROM field

    Hello,
    on criteria workflow steps notification emails can be sent to the users.
    Emails are sent from document author (dDocAuthor) in FROM field of the email message.
    Is it possible to configure that emails would be sent from sysadmin (or other constant user) but not from dDocAuthor?

    Thank you for your reply Frank. I am using Mac OS X Version 10.6.8 with Mail app version 4.5. I just updated all the software and these are the latest versions. So, the question is about Mail app 4.5.
    The problem looks the same even after all the updates. When I try to redirect the message, I have empty To field to type in where to send the message and the From field shows a drop down menu with MY email addresses of the configured Mailboxes in my Maill app (these being gmail and hotmail). The original From field is simply not there and is not in pull down menu.

  • Condition of criteria workflow

    hi,
    I have a question about creating criteria workflow by using ucm 10.1.3.3.3.
    It seems in criteria workfow, I can have only one criteria definition, such as "Type matches mynews", is it possible to define combination criteria definition, for example "Type matches mynews" AND "...".
    Thanks.
    Best regards

    Don't think of the workflows as railroads that only connect Points A and Z (and dead end). Rather think of them as city streets with many intersections and a traffic cop at each intersection directing flow.
    A workflow step is an intersection with a cop. Sure, it is easy to create a one way street but then you lose the flexibility to reuse that street for anything else, no matter how close (parallel) it may run.
    The first step in your workflow has an initial entry criteria - think of it as a toll gate. Establish security and one additional parameter. That is just to see who gets in the door. Security is really your biggest concern here.
    Remember though that each step has events (traffic cops) that have a specific anatomy. (see the anatomy of a workflow step in the WF Implementation Guide on pp 88 here: http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E10316_01/cs/cs_doc_10/documentation/admin/workflow_guide_10gr3en.pdf)
    That single initial criteria you asked about is the toll gate and once through you have 3 separate opportunities (intersections) to route content. For example, your toll gate might say only cars (no trucks, bikes or pedestrians) can get onto this road.
    Opportunity 1 is an intersection with a traffic cop (workflow entry event). This is where Jason was saying to put some additional filtering criteria. Essential the traffic cop tells only blue cars to continue and all others to exit. The blue cars continue on.
    Opportunity 2 is a round-about with a traffic cop (workflow update event). The blue cars go around and around until something happens and they are told to either exit or continue on or go onto another road. You can count the times the cars go around, count the days the cars have been going around, wait for someone to approve the car, wait for N number of people to approve the car, wait for folks to reject the car, or any other event, trigger or action you can think of. The car either exits, goes on, goes back to where it came from or goes onto another road.
    Opportunity 3 is another intersection with a traffic cop (workflow exit event). Only the blue cars that are told to continue on pass through this intersection and the cop gets one last chance to do something to the car (redirect it, tell it to exit, or modify it some way).
    Then you are on to your next STEP in the workflow!
    As you can tell the UCM workflow is less about linear progression and more about complex event processing in an editorial review kind of context.
    Hope this helps!

  • Criteria Workflow Issue

    Hi,
    I have a criteria workflow with only one step ,which is Review Step which has " Users can review and edit (replace) the current revision" selected .
    The scenario is :
    Author creates a content and and pushed it to the above mentioned criteria workflow.
    The content goes for approval and the approver edits the content and after that the content is released in the system without going through the approval cycle where in the approver should approve the content after editing it.
    Also even if the content item is in the workflow and approver has not approved the content and the author edits the content,the content is released in the system without going through the approval cycle ,which should not ideally happen ,it should go back to the workflow and only after approver approves it ,the content should be released.
    What I  want to know is whether this is OOTB behaviour that it will not go through the approval cycle after edit action has been performed.
    Also,In case if its not OOTB , what are the ways where in I can push the content back to the criteria workflow after edit action has been performed.
    Thanks,
    Garima

    > I 'm doing the editing from the webcenter portal via the content presenter task flow
    I guess the flag mentioned earlier is missing in the task flow - thus, it uses the default value (checked).
    > I tried adding jump to previous step in the update event of the workflow step as thats the event thats being called
    a) update event is called whenever the workflow is updated, or on timely basis. I guess you better use the exit event, which is called just once, when the item is to process to the next step (or the workflow finishes in the last step)
    b) you cannot do just a jump. You will need a condition, so that the jump is performed only if it has to. Unfortunately, I could not find how the flag is represented in the service call parameters. Now, another question will be how to set it from WebCenter Portal's task flows. This will require further investigation, and perhaps, customizations. You might want to create a SR in Metalink to get assistance from Oracle support. They are really helpful and they might give you an answer, or at least a guidance.

  • 10gR3 BatchLoader - Criteria Workflow

    Hello,
    are there any changes in BatchLoader of UCM 10R3 to configure batchloader to make checked in new documents enter Criteria workflow?
    Is there any way to configure BatchLoader to use diferent check-in service?

    One thing I've done in the past is to use the extra exit conditions or additional update event criteria (code) to hold the docs in place until I want them to move.
    I might do something like this:
    1) create a companion file variable to act as a flag stating when it has been approved.
    2) because the update event evaluates in the event of an approval write some event script that a) looks for the approve event b) if found checks for any other constraints - like a linked document that has not yet been approved c) sets the "I have been approved" flag .
    In your example, Doc 1 is approved but the extra exit condition looks for the"I have been approved" flag for itself AND it's linked file, Document2. When Doc 2 is approved the code extra exit condition sees that both Doc 2 AND Doc 1 have been approved and allows them to progress.
    It is best to think of workflow steps as logic containers rather than sequential events. Using jump logic you can trigger the movement (flow) of documents to any container you want and under the conditions you specify (such as only when my linked file is also approved).
    hope this helps.

  • Start Workflow from particular Step and assign to particular group of members

    Hi
    We are working on workflow using CQ 5.5.
    Is it possible start workflow from particular Step and assign this workflow to particular group of members dynamically(Using Process Step).
    Workflow Name : Single Page Workflow
                        Start
                            |
                        Step 1
                            |
                        Step 2
                            |
                        Step 3
                            |
                        Step 4
                            |
                        Step 5
                            |
                        Step 6 (Process Step)
                            |
                         End
    In Step 6 , we will start workflow for list pages dynamically , for that we written code as
    public class PublishTranslation implements WorkflowProcess{
        public void execute(WorkItem item, WorkflowSession wfsession, MetaDataMap metadata)
                throws WorkflowException {
               WorkflowModel  model = wfsession.getModel(item.getWorkflow().getWorkflowModel().getId());
               WorkflowData wfdata= wfsession.newWorkflowData("JCR_PATH",pagePath[i]);
               wfsession.startWorkflow(model, wfdata);
    This code starting workflow from step 1.
    I need help on
    1. How can i start workflow from step 2 or 3 ?
    2. How can i assign this workflow to group members ?
    Thanks & Regards

    Hello Ravindra,
    Logically it shouldn't allow you to do that and same happening because start workflow call on model will always trigger the workflow from starting point (means the very first step after start component in workflow design)
    To achieve this you have other ways, i would suggest to try below if it works for you.
    1. Instead of creating a new workflow just branch it programmaticaly and route back to previous step
          List<Route> routes=wfsession.getBackRoutes(item);
                     Route route=routes.get(WHAT_EVER_STEP);
                     wfsession.complete(item, route);
    2. Create a new workflow model which starts from second step and using code get access of that workflow
         wfsession.getAllWorkflows();
    for delegation as mentioned by Yogesh, you can try wfsession.delegateWorkItem(WorkItem item, Authorizable participant)

  • (Solved) Workflow System Verification Step 4: workitem could not be created

    Hello all
    We're on R/3 4.7 and I'm trying to get workflow runtime environment up and running. I've already passed through the automatic customizing (SWU3), all is green!
    When starting the verification workflow I get a mail in my SAP Workplace inbox telling me something about error WL 410.
    In the workflow log I can see this (had to translate it from german, so please bare with me if wording in english is not absolutely correct):
    green -> Start event received
    green -> (sub-)workflow created
    green -> workflow started
    green -> SWW_WI_ERROR_MESSAGE_SEND_S    
    red   -> Callback vom Workitem ausgeführt
    red   -> GET_DEADLINE
    red   -> SWW_WI_STATUS_CHANGE
    Clicking on the first red light pops up a message telling me something like that:
    Workflow 'Workflow-System-Verification' Step n° 4: Workitem could not be created
    The long text message of this and the workflow protocol tells nothing more.
    Anyone out there able to help me on this issue?
    Kind regards,
    Renaud

    Hello Alan
    Yes, this nearly made me crazy. Posted a customer message to SAP concerning this in parallel last week and also sent them some screenshots. They also advised me to move unit H from (non standard) dimensionless to dimension "time". This corrected it as already mentioned before.
    I did several workflow activations before and never had any problems with automatic customizing and the verification workflow... until I came across this system here. Also on all other systems known to me the unit H was never dimensionless. Double checked it last week as well. Probably someone else fiddled around in CUNI without knowing what he or she was doing? Will probably never find it out. I just hope that this was an exception! Else...
    Some extra points would be great of course )
    Thanks and kind regards,
    Renaud
