Custom proces type based on ABAP OO class

Hy,
I have a process type and in one method of its asoociated ABAP OO class I have to check if their process chains are running or not.
I know how to make the tests, but the problem is that I have to integrate them in one method. I'm lookink for a solution to adapt the process type from :
https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/509f3ae6-e36e-2910-48a8-ab43dc167dd9
Any suggestions about what should I keep or not and in which method should I put my tests?
Thank you.

Hello,
Sorry, not sure where my brain was. Actually I do know: at two clients with projects going live this month, so apologies for a rushed and inaccurate response. It's CL_SWF_EVT_EVENT.
Jocelyn's blog I referred to includes a code sample using the same class on how to raise an event with an object key.
Regarding your second question: No you don't need to do any binding. Just use an instance of your object and it will wait for an event with the same key. The WF part is very straightforward and works exactly like BOR, it's just raising event that can't be done with the WAPI.
Cheers,
Mike

Created column not showing in the Document Library View for a Custom Content Type based on Document

We have a custom content type based of Document Content Type. The OOTB "Created" column does not show up in the view as well as in the Site Settings -> Columns.
But it shows up in the Display Form and Edit Form of the Item at the bottom "Created at " by " " and "Modified by" at by ""
Would anyone know how to make this column appear as part of the view ?
thanks,
Harsh

Hi,
They should by default be possible to add to a view. The only reason they would disappear from the UI if someone has changed the attribute of the Field to hidden = true. You can verify that with PowerShell and if so you can use PowerShell to revert the setting
to false.

Custom Content type based on "Link to a Document" does not open new folder in a dialog

Hi,
We have created a custom Content Type based on "Link to a Document" (0x01010A) into a document library. When I use the New Document button on the ribbon, the "Link to a document" form appears on the same window, not as a dialog. If we
use the "link to a document" content type it works fine.
This issue occurs when creating the content type from the SharePoint UI as well as via XML (provisioning the content type).
Is it a SharePoint bug or are we missing something?
Thanks!
Sergio

Hi S3rgiones,
I can reproduce your issue, when create a custom content type based on “Link to a Document” content type, create item using the content type, it will open the NewLink.aspx page in the same window not the modal dialog.
In this situation, you can try to custom the content type and customize the form page for it, specify it in the content type customization, if this doesn’t work, you may need to custom the content type not inherit from the default link to
a document, but customize it yourself.
Thanks,

How to indicate a message by a planning function type in an ABAP-OO-Class

Hello,
I integrated a message with following statement " MESSAGE i003(upf1) WITH v1 v2." in an ABAP-OO-Class, which is used by a Planning Function Type. The function type works but it´s not indecated after executing the Planning Sequence, neither from web template nor in the planning modeller.
Does anybody know this problem/behavior?
Thank for response
Andreas

Hi Joerg,
how about this:
data: l_dummy type char100.
MESSAGE i003(upf1) WITH v1 v2 into l_dummy.
i_r_msg->add_msg( ).
You do not need to take special care about the variables. Just raise the message as you want it to be raised. The only thing you need to do is to raise the message into a string (..into l_dummy). The interface IF_RSPLFA_MSG and the implemetation of add_msg is going to read the standard message variables (SY-MSGNO, SY-MSGID, SY-MSGTY, MSGV1 ...). You just need to throw the message
and call i_r_msg->add_msg( ) e.g. in the execute method of your customer planning function.
Please give it a try and take a look at it in the debugger.
Hope this helps.

Custom Process Type in PC - ABAP pgm that returns success/fail status

Hello All,
I need to create a custom process type so that an ABAP program can return success/failure message to its successor. browsing through the forum posts i came across some links to a How-To document. but that link doesnt seem to be valid anymore.
I dint get much idea looking into the IF_RSPC_* interfaces and CL_RSPC_ABAP class.
Please let me know if anybody has documentation on this topic. any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Rit

Hi,
you can goto 'rspc' and then settings->maintain process types. there you can define your possibilities/results.
i read somewhere in forum like for failure in abap just need to raise error message within abap routine.
hope it helps,
regards,
anil

Cannot get rid of default field in a custom content type

hi guys,
I have custom content type based on Document Set in a List based on Document Library. I created both using XML declaration in SP solution.
I have all fields in my content type which I declared, except to defult fields: 'Name' and 'Description'. I need to hide both of them. After I set Inherits="FALSE" in ContentType section in Elements.xml in ContentType description the field
'Description' goes away. But the field 'Name' marked as required and stays.
I've also tried to add RemoveFieldRef parameter to the same Elements file, but the field persists. I assume it comes from list definition, not content type. But I cannot figure out how to get this field out from list definition.
Do I miss something?

I am assuming that content type's elements.xml file is looking like this
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<Elements xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/sharepoint/">

Try to add ShowInNewForm="TRUE" ShowInEditForm="FALSE" those attributes.

"Disable tracing" as part of custom step type behavior

Hi !
Currently writing custom step types based on sequences (my step type's default adapter is a sequence), I would like to set the "disable tracing" right in my step type definition.
The problem is that this option isn't visible in the 'Default Run Options" tab... The only way I found to do this is using Pre and Post Expression to set 'ThisContext.Tracing = True /False'.
But I don't like the fact to use Pre/Post Expressions in my step type (I would prefer to let it blank for end users).
Is there any way to achieve this without using Expressions ?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Here a printscreen on the properties available for my custom step... No TS container...
Am I missing something ?

Re: Custom Value Type

I have sort of answered my own question. I found, under the heading:
"Storing Second Class Objects via Stringification", that you can use
externalizer and factory extensions. However, what if I want to externalize
to, say, a java.sql.Date (mysql's date column). For example, suppose I have
my own Date class? How would I handle that?

Dave,
You've got a couple options for storing custom SCOs (second-class
objects). The stringification route is useful when you can encode the
custom field type as a string -- java.net.URL, for example.
For storing data in non-String fields, you'll want to create a custom
field mapping. See the timestampField sample in the samples/ directory.

Custom Value Type

See stringification factory
http://solarmetric.com/Software/Documentation/2.5.0/docs/ref_guide_stringification.html
This will allow you to create an instance from string and to string. Our
2.5 release also contains some examples of these if I recall correctly.

BI custom process type (ABAP OO Class): how to create a variant screen?

I created a custom process type in Netweaver 2004s (business intelligence) which in essence is nothing but an Abap class that implements certain interfaces. What I am now struggling with is how to write the code for the "new variant" input screen.
My understanding is that the logic has to be implemented in the method IF_RSPC_MAINTAIN~MAINTAIN, but I am lacking detailed information.
Can someone give me an example with a variant screen that displays two radio buttons?
Thank you,
D.

It is a custom class that implements the following interfaces:
IF_RSPC_GET_VARIANT
IF_RSPC_MAINTAIN
IF_RSPC_EXECUTE
The interface I am struggling with is the first one (get variant). Any more insight on how this should be used would be highly appreciated.
Thanks!

Urgent Help need for ABAP Custom Process Types

Hi Gurus,
I have created a Custom Process Type for ABAP program which returns status (Success or Failure).
I followed the below procedure to create a custom ABAP process type.
In RSPC, I went to Settings -> Maintain process types
I selected the ABAP process type and then selected the EDIT -> COPY AS and then in the process chain configuration screen, I gave a new name to the process type, changed the POSSIBLE EVENTS settings to "2 process ends "successful" or "failure" and saved the settings to confirm changes.
Now I can see the new process type for ABAP program which returns the success or failure for the successors.
Now, my question is, where do i write the logic for ABAP program ? how does the ABAP program returns the success or failure. Do I have to change the code in the method IF_RSPC_EXECUTE~EXECUTE to return success or failure. Please make me clear where I can write the code? For example in my ABAP program, I am searching a table to find a specific value. If the value is not found, then the ABAP process type should return failure, if found should return success. How can I do this?
Thanks in advance,

Hi,
   We have a similar problem. We have an ABAP program in a process chain that
uses a custom process type with on success and on failure.
    If the program is successful there is no problem. it will run the next process step.
    The problem is when the ABAP Program fails and even though the message class is E in our ABAP program it has a confirm popup message with a status change and asks "Save Status and Trigger Events if Appropriate".
     Once you enter Yes to continue it then continues to the next step in the program and is fine.I traced in debug where this status message is appearing. It is in CL_RSPC_LOG. There is a popup_to_confirm_step where it checks the e_status that is value J ( Framework Error upon completion). Then it submits the rspc_process_finish program to complete and call the on error process step.
     Has anyone else experienced this and is there any other documents out there to help me?
Apologies if this is not very clear.
Any assistance would be appreciated.
Thanks

Can not create template based page with customized page type.

I built a customized page type (with persepective attribute) and wanted to build pages with this type. If the new pages do not based on any template, it works fine. However, if I wanted to use a template, the page type was set back to "standard"!
Steps to reproduce it:
1. create a new page type - test page type.
2. create a new template = test template.
3. create a new page - test page.
3.1 choose the page type to be "test page type"
3.2 fill in the form including the new attribute info.
3.2 choose the page template to be 'test template"
3.3 click finish
4. click the properties of "test page", it shows that the page type is "standard" and the new attribute information is gone!
If in step 3.2, no template is chosen, the properties of the new page shows the page type is "test page type".
I tried to find a workaround.
1. create a page with "test page type".
2. covert the new page to template.
I got this error message:
Error while copying page. (WWC-44262)
(WWC-00000)
Looks like customized page type and template can not coexist. Is this a bug?

How long should the upgrade take? And should it be attempted on a production (infrastructure on machine 1/middle-tier on machine 2) Windows 2000 architecture? Or should be wait for 9.0.4? Or ... should I ask this in a TAR? Thanks!

To trigger a process chain from an external program you can use the function:
RSPC_API_CHAIN_START
you need only to know the Chain ID and pass it in import parameter.
Here an example:
select-options v_time for sy-uzeit.
parameter: chain type RSPC_CHAIN.
check sy-uzeit in v_time.
CALL FUNCTION 'RSPC_API_CHAIN_START'
EXPORTING
    i_chain             = chain
I_T_VARIABLES       =
I_SYNCHRONOUS       =
I_SIMULATE          =
I_NOPLAN            =
IMPORTING
E_LOGID             =
EXCEPTIONS
FAILED              = 1
OTHERS              = 2
IF sy-subrc <> 0.
MESSAGE ID SY-MSGID TYPE SY-MSGTY NUMBER SY-MSGNO
        WITH SY-MSGV1 SY-MSGV2 SY-MSGV3 SY-MSGV4.
