Custom runtime views - Guided Procedures

Hello,
I'd like to know whether someone can tell me how to create a <b>custom runtime view</b> and apply this view to a Guided Procedure.
Thanks you for help!
Best regards,
Stephen

I'm expecting GP product management to release soon a how-to for that purpose. It involves using the GP public API Webdynpro ContentComponent and it's not easy to describe in this forum. Hopefully it'll be published out soon for you.

Custom Runtime Views

Hey guys,
i have some difficulties to add a custom runtime view to my process template. In fact the button is just disabled. I am having this behaviour in 3 different systems (NW 7.0 SP17, NW 7.01 SP2 and NW CE 7.10 SP7). So what i am missing here? ... I just cant believe its a bug ...
regards,
Markus

Hi,
The button will be enabled only if we have any registered runtime iviews.

GP Customize Runtime View

Hi folks,
I've got a problem with the GP Runtime View.
I would like to use it on both occasions:
- showing the overview (with Alerts & Warnings, Processes I own, ...)
- showing a single workitem (with Phase Bar, ... and the workitem)
The problem now is, that this view brings it's own navigation bar with it. Putting this view on a standard portal page, I've got in sum 2 left navigation bars.
I read GP Custom Runtime View, that it is somehow possible to alter this view - but I have no idea how to do this.
My goal would be, to hide the runtime's left navigation in both cases. And to show some of the navigation items (e.g. phase bar) in a header bar. ...and perhaps to do without Custom Views, to keep it simple?
Any help appreciated.
Regards
Daniel

Hi Sreekanth,
Even if you are defining you own runtime view, I'm not sure that you will be able to get rid of this d**n paper clip! I think it is part of the content area and cannot be modified.
There should be a portal page accessible in the PCD under the name "SingleTaskUI".
portal_content/com.sap.pct/platform_add_ons/com.sap.caf.eu.gp.folders.gp/com.sap.caf.eu.gp.folders.iviews/com.sap.caf.eu.gp.folders.singletask/com.sap.caf.eu.gp.iviews.singletaskiview
Hope this helps,

How to change the name of (Guided procedure) GP Runtime View?

Hello all!
At Design time in GP (Guided Procedure), I have added a runtime view at the tab "Runtime Views" named Additional Resources to a GP process. At runtime, when the process is started, at the left bar appears the button "Additional Resources". Is there a way to change this name? Any idea can be helpfull :).
Kindly Regards,
Luiza

Hi,
an other solution is change the block property QUERY_DATA_SOURCE_TYPE from "Table" to "Sub-query" , than change at run time the property QUERY_DATA_SOURCE_NAME.
First create block and add items
The QUERY_DATA_SOURCE_NAME will be for ex. "Select 'A' as col1, 'B' AS col2, 'C' as col3 from dual"
Set into items the column name property to col1 , col2 ...
At run time change the query to "Select 'Z' as col1, 'X' as col2 , 'Y' as col3 from dual"
in this way you can change the source of column value.
Caution because if you change value type from varchar2 to date you must cast date into varchar2.
May be that this way is valid only for view data not for insert-update, i don't remember.
bye

Guided Procedures Runtime showing internal process steps in UWL

Hi
We have created a Guided Procedures Workflow which is working fine most of the time. However, sometimes, Guided Procedures runtime behaviour is rather strangely, it 's showing internal process steps as clickable workitems in the UWL. Clicking on the workitem causes a Null Pointer Exception.
Example:
Let's say, the workflows is as follows:
- Execute Callable Object "start"
- Decision "myDecision"
- If Decsion returns true
- Then execute Callable Object "A"
- Ese execute Callable Object "B"
Normally "myDecision" wouldn't appear in the UWL. But sometimes, it is showing up there. When we click on it, there is the following exception. After a while, everything is normal again (no internal workitems, no exceptions). Does anyone know what is happing here and what can be done to prevent it?
Kind regards

Hi
You mean the entry in the UWL list? No, we don't modify this. It is exactly the title we have assigned to in the Guided Procedures Design time environment.
How else can a title be changed? And what kind of problems can occur?

How to add Custom View to GP Runtime Views

Hi All,
I would like to add custom view to my GP process.
In GP runtime mode the numbers you see on left hand side like "run103" "run002" are confusing to users. I would like to have appropriate name/description instead.
I understand that I can add Custom view to Runtime Views, but when I am editing a process "Add Custom View" button is always disabled.
Why that button is always disabled?
How do I define Custom View for a process?
Thanks,
Abhay

Hi Abhay,
this is a bug in SP7 which is fixed in the last patch. You can download it from the Market Place.

Embedding Guided Procedures Runtime into Non-SAP-Portal

Hello,
I'm developing a workflow using the Visual Composer and the Guided Procedures.
Unfortunately, the workflow should be accessible from a non-SAP-Portal. The users of this portal and the workflow should not be aware that they are actually using SAP-Portal content.
This only concerns the GUI.
Is it (and how) possible to embed the Guided Procedures Runtime GUI into a non-SAP-Portal?
Best regards
Alexander

Thanks a lot for your quick response.
Based on the information provided in your answer, I found the following document:

Deleting running processes from Guided Procedure runtime

Dear all,
Does anybody know how to delete running process i.e. incomplete process from Guided Procedure runtime dashboards. The administration workset contains archiving & deleting sections but they can only delete if a process is completed or Erronous or Terminated.
In need to delete a running process or incomplete process as some process instances are kicked off and left alone.
Thanks
-Bharath

Hi Ramien,
I suppose you have acces to the executionContext of GP...
You can use the following method to get the process Id:
String processId = executionContext.getProcessId();

Runtime Exception occured while test the Guided Procedure Webservice

Hello All,
As per my scenario, i have to get the process status in guided procedure by using the java application thro default guided procedure web service. Before starting, i have test the web service by the web service navigator. I took default web service as GPRuntimeFacadeWS in the list. I have selected this web service and method GetProcessResult, gave the input parameters for ProcessInstanceGUID after that i am getting the result like "com.sap.caf.eu.gp.model.gpws.exception.ProcessRuntimeException". Before testing i have created one process in GP. I am not able to see the result of the web service. This is exception occured while iam working in the EP7.0 SP17. Eventhough iam working in EP7.0 SP13 also had i got the same exception like "test.ProcessRuntimeException".
Please help me for this.
Thanks
Prakash T

Hi Salvatore,
This is a very wide error. You did not provided any other info as specified by Michael. Just a wild guess, this sort of error occurs generally when classpath or java_home properties are not set correctly. But, as i said it is very wide, some more info will be useful.

Task based UI (Guided Procedure) in SAP CRM 7.0

I am trying to build a Task Based UI in SAP CRM 7.0. I followed the steps which SAP mentions but unfortunately i can't get it work.I am a functional consultant and so its quite possible that might have missed something critical
This is the sequence of steps i followed
Step 1 - Create new BSP component
2 - Created 3 custom views
3 - Created a "Guided Maintenance Page"
4 - According to SAP documentation/material - when i open the view/page created in step 3 i would be able to see the views i created in Step 2 and i can choose the views ( and the sequence) i want to use in the guided procedure.
But unfortunately in Step 3 - i don't see any of the views i created in "Step 2" .
So just wondering what i have missed and why the guided procedure is not working.
thanks in advance!
Cheers
SS

Hi Ruby,
Thanks a lot for your reply.
In your reply you have mentioned that - "As far as I know , if you use the guided maintainence procedure , at the top you can see the number of custom views added in the component , in your case you will be able to see them as 1, 2 and 3"
The issue I am encountering is that I don't see the (any) custom view in my guided procedure.
I don't see any of the the custom views 1,2 or 3 listed in the top half of the page. All i see is a table with no entries in it.
So i am wondering if i have missed out any important step in guided procedure( task based UI) creation process.
thanks in advance!
Cheers

Guided Procedures - Integration of Webdynpro Java with Adobe Interactive fo

Hi All,
We have created Webdynpro java application with Adobe interactive forms.It works fine in NWDS and also in Webdynpro Content Administrator.
When we have called this component in Guided Procedures (callable object - Webdynpro (GP Interface)), the form screen has not displayed.
Plz help us..

Hi,
Scenario : User have to log into GP runtime, When he clicks the first action it should display the adobe form. He has to fill the details and submit the form. This form is routed for Approver 1 for review. The first approver will log into portal,view it (UWL),approve it and sent for second approver.The same process happens with the second approver.After both approvals, a BAPI updates the data in the interactive form in R/3
All the process have to be done in Guided Procedures, then integrated with Portal at the end.
We have tried creating an Wdynpro Java app with online adobe form and executed successfuly in NWDS and also in Webdynpro content administrator.
issue:-
When we create a callable object(webdynpro app(gp interface CO)) in GP and test, we were unable to view the form.
Now our question is : what are we mising ?
Is it possible to integrate online interactive adobe form with guided procedures?
Is our approach to solve the scenario right?
any links or tutorials will be greatly appreciated
TIA,

Identify Guided Procedures Task ID dynamically

Hi,
Can anyone please tell me if there is a way to idynamically dentify the id of the task (not the process) that is asigned to the user in Guided Procedures process?
Say for ex: I have two parallel tasks assigned to one user. Action1 and Action2. For each action a email is sent to the user with a link (like below) to the task so he/she can directly launch the task from email.
To view this task href="http://`{write(ctxt.DataSource.Host);}`/irj/portal?NavigationTarget=ROLES://portal_content/com.sap.pct/platform_add_ons/com.sap.caf.eu.gp.folders.gp/com.sap.caf.eu.gp.roles.runtime/com.sap.caf.eu.gp.worksets.runtime/com.sap.caf.eu.gp.pages.procinstance&DynamicParameter=processId%3D`{write(sy.processid);}`%26taskId%3D">Click here
With the above link, the user is only getting the url to the process but not directly to the task. i.e., when the user clicks on the email link of Action2, the browser opens up with the Action1 selected by default. He will then have to manually click on Action2 to complete that task. I want the user be able to directly go to Action2.
Please advice.
Regards,
Kumar.

Workflows using Guided procedures

Hi,
1) How does Guided procedures(GP) internally implement workflows? Does it call workflow items created in an R/3 server or does it have its own platform for implementing the same? If it has its own implementation, can it also call R/3 workflows?
2) What is the main advantage of using GP for workflow tasks in portal compared to using UWL in portal? One advantage I see is GP can be used to integrate users, data across different system, but is there any other advantage in situations where the data comes from one single R/3 server?
Regards,
Srini.

Hi Srini,
On the workflow processing level, Guided Procedures offers two possibilities. One of them is to use the built-in Java-based processing engine, which is mainly appropriate for testing purposes. The other option is to configure GP with the SAP Business Workflow (aka BPM Runtime Engine), which runs in the ABAP stack. In this case, you create and start processes in GP, but the processing is done on the ABAP side.
Regarding the differences between the GP runtime and UWL, I think the concept here is slightly different. In UWL you have access to your tasks (it works on the task level). By the way, GP offers UWL integration as well, and enables you to see the tasks generated in GP also in the UWL. However, when using the GP runtime tools, you have an overview on the entire process, and you have different authorization concepts as well - process Administrator, Owner, Overseer, contributors, and so on. You can see what the status of the overall process is, the process output and so on. Even if data comes from a single system, GP offers a process-driven, user-oriented view on it.
I hope this answers your questions. For more details, you can have a look at the https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/developerareas/platform?rid=/webcontent/uuid/7b9b3834-0801-0010-6a9a-dc53e0db37f2">caf [original link is broken] [original link is broken].
