Custom workflow for Fiori Approve Timesheets

Hello All,
I am investigating complexity of adding custom workflow to Approve Timesheets.
There is BADI SRA010_BADI_TIMESHEET_APV.
Any experiences/advices ?

Hi Lukasz,
How do you change approver using data from Ztable in the current system?
If you are talking about workflow approver determination logic, it is a job for Workflow Engine and not for Fiori.

Workflow for Document Approval

Hi all,
I'm a newbie to SolMan and is trying to figure out how to implement a workflow for document approval. A similar question has probably been posted in the past, but I can't find a definite solution, only some hints.
Basically, what we're trying to achieve is the following:
When a document is uploaded using SOLAR02, and the creator of the document changes the status to ready for sign-off, we would like to trigger a workflow which will send an email to a couple of persons who are responsible to approve the document. We already implement the digital signature, we just want to add an automatic email notification to be sent to the approvers.
Based on my research, it seems that this is not supported by SolMan and hence we have to do a custom development.
There's an object key called SOLMANDOC and we should raise an event (something like SIGNATURE_PROCESS_START) to send an email notification to the approvers. Can somebody confirm whether my understanding is right ? Does anybody know the name of the BADI that we can modify to achieve our goal ?
FYI, we're using SolMan Rel 7.01 SP 19.
Thanks in advance

Hi Phil,
I'm facing with problems with creating a simple 2 steps release strategy.
the problem is I cant approve the last step of the release.
This is what I did:
In spro Digital Signature->Signature strategy:
in "Define Authorization groups" I create this entries:
1. EING
2. VERIF
in "Define Individual Signatures" I create this entries:
1. S1   EING
2. S2   VERIF
in "Define Individual Strategies: I create this entries:
SigStrat: ZSIGSTR
Signature Method: R
Display comment: X Required
Display Remark: X
Display document: X
Verification: not checked
in "Assign individual signatures"
CtrIn Indiv.SIG.      AGrpDIG
1          S1               EING
2          S2               VERIF
Display Predecessor for Ctrln is 2 is 1
for "Display release statuses" an entry with one line with the value 1
and in "Display individual signatures there 2 entries 1 and 2.
in spro "Define Document status schemes"
stat scheme "ZSIGSTR"
4 status:
Status                 init status      Sequence    Low     High       lock         Signature schma End status         Cancel status
COPY_EDITING       X                  10           10       20          -
REVIEW                                     20           10        40        X                    ZSIGSTR         RELEASED    DECLINED
RELEASED                                30           10        40        X
DECLINED                                  40           10        20
I created two roles with object c_sign_bpr one with the value "EING"   and the other with the value "VERIF"
I assign this status scheme to a document type in my project.
I tried to release a document the first step was the author of the document move the status to "REVIEW" and I got a window that i need to enter my password and it worked ok.
The problem is in the second step that I need to release the document (now is in a REVIEW status) When I press on the icon in order to release I didn't get the option to release only to cancel there is no "V" option in the small window.
Can you please tell me if I did a correct customization? also can you tell me if my problem is maybe missing authorization? Can you direct me to reading material or to an example?
Best regards

Fiori Approve Timesheets - Activity Type not Displayed

According to the BPD document for the Approve Timesheets App, the Activity Type should be displayed in the details area of the timesheet.
However, when a user selects the details option, the following is displayed.
Has anyone else experienced this issue? I'm testing in Chrome and we're on the latest service pack that was just released last week.

HI Pankaj,
Thank you for supplying these notes. They look like exactly what I need. We have implemented Fiori App My Timesheet and Approve Timesheet, but during the approval process, the approving manager cannot see what kind of time (attendance type) is being approved. All of the days shown below were entered as 8hrs of sick time, but that doesn't show up anywhere.
I was able to install the first OSS note 1994214 on the ECC back-end, but when I try to install 1994889 on the gateway, it won't because it can't find the right place to insert the new code in many objects.
I could find no prerequisite notes that were not already installed. Incidentally, the code it was looking for in the first one was a copyright notice for 2013, but instead the code had a copyright notice going to 2014.
We just installed UIX01HCM SP03. Was this OSS note included in that support pack? If so, it doesn't look like was effective because we are still not seeing any attendance types in the approval app.
In case, its helpful here is a list of which components are installed on our gateway:

Email Notifications through workflow for all Approved and Rejected Orders

hi,
i have to send Email Notifications through workflow for all Approved and Rejected Orders to the user who have submitted the order for approval.how could it be done.please send ur solutions.
regards
yesukannan

Hi,
An option would be use Oracle Alert. Create an event based alert on the table where you have order approvals or rejections. This alert will be raised after inserting or updating this table. Create an action linked to this alert, and choose message as action type.
This setup can be done under Alert Manager Responsibility.

Debug background task in custom workflow for PO change

Hi,
We are on ECC 6.0 EHP7.
I have a custom workflow for PO object type(delegated to std object type BUS2012).
There is a background task which has some custom code written and I need to debug this code.
Can someone please let me know how to debug a background task?
Thanks.

As suggested by ronen we can debug through swo1 but we have to pass values manually for importing parameters, by using sm50 also we can do debug and there is one more way to debug
if its custom task change background task to fore ground and change business object method also change it to fore ground and activate the work flow.
now change any po then it will stop at that step now take that work item id in swi1 and go to swia and execute after putting break point in that method of business object.
But best way to debug through infinite loop i.e sm50.

Custom workflow for manual merch projects

Hi,
Having issues in configuring custom workflow.
In ATG10.0.3 created a custom workflow(editCommerceAssets.wdl) & configured with catalog import job (importing thru spreadsheet & creating a Merch project).This works successfully.
I am trying to configure this custom workflow for manually created projects in BCC.
In the following files I tried replacing commonWorkflow.wdl to editCommerceAssets.wdl.
<localconfig>\atg\commerce\web\assetmanager\taskConfiguration.xml
<localconfig>\atg\commerce\web\workflowActivities.xml
But getting this error in pub console:
10:13:23,195 WARN [ActivityManager] The workflow activity with ID /Common/commonWorkflow.wdl has been registered multiple times for the same workflow. Please verify your workflow
configuration as this is not allowed.
10:14:40,453 ERROR [ApplicationManager] There is no application configured with ID '/Common/commonWorkflow.wdl'.
Any recommendations?
Thanks!
Mani
Edited by: user11263665 on Oct 17, 2012 9:38 AM

It is possible that the workflow has already been registered in db before you modified workflowActivities.xml.Did you try cleaning up workflow tables and restart the server??
epub_workflow_info, epub_coll_workflow, epub_ind_wf,epub_wf_server_id tables
Make sure there is only one entry for each workflow in epub_workflow_info. If there are multiple entries, then it may be coming from 2 different places and you need to disable one of them. Whenever you create custom work flow, copy the existing workflow and modify it and give it a different name. If you are importing programmatically, you really dont need to configure it in taskConfiguraiton.xml ( as it corresponds to settings related to which item-descriptors, tabs, security in BCC gui).

Percentage in Fiori Approve timesheet

Hi Friends,
We have implemented the FIORI timesheet entry and approval app. In timesheet approval, when Manager logs in it shows the subordinates timesheets for approval.
All 3 employees entered the time for the same week Sep 1 - Sep 07 2014. But, for 2 employees % shows 100 and for other it shows 50%, the only difference is they entered time to different projects.
Just wanted to know, how this % works and shows in approve timesheet app.
Regards,
S.Srikanth
Tags edited by: Michael Appleby

Hi Pankaj,
We went live today for Timesheet entry & Timesheet Approval. While checking in timesheet approval for an employee, it shows 53% even though employee has entered 43 hours for this week.
Can you please let me know what could be the reason for this and the screenshot is before approval. There is no pending hours and we have week on week approval.

Custom Workflow for Shipping Execution

Hi All,
We have a requirement to cater approval on issuance i.e. at the time of shipping execution. For this purpose we have used Oracle Workflow Builder to cater the requirement. The workflow is working fine for approval but not for rejection. If we approve the shipping execution, the transaction is working fine but if we rejects it, the shipping transaction got stuck with exception and if we resolve the exception manually, we are unable to re send it for approval or even shipping.
I will be grateful if anyone can help me out and advise me on how to setup of workflow for rejection.
Thanks in advance.

How to create custom workflow for document library?

Hi All,
I have a document library with a custom people picker column "assign to". Need to create approval workflow using designer, approval must send to person who is selected in "assign to" column. I tried with designer workflow,But finally
facing "The e-mail message cannot be sent. Make sure the e-mail has a valid recipient". How to fix and achieve my scenario? Thanks in advance!

I would suggest you to firstly print the assign to value using "Log to history" action. Moslty it could be of three reasons,
1. Assign to value is not getting populated correctly in your SPD workflow
2. Email server is not configured properly, If alerts and other emails are workfing in your server then this would not be a reason for issue
3. The user your trying to send an email does not have valid email
do let us know if can get the user email in your workflow.
Hope this helps!

Custom Workflow for sending Remainder mail in MS CRM 2013/2015 online

Hi All,
We have a requirement to send a remainder email before 5 days,3 days and on the same day of the M/TC date in lead form. To achieve this we tried using Custom Workflow. Below is the logic tried but in the highlighted line
not able to retrieve the "M/TC date" value, this results in no output.
Kindly suggest where we are going wrong or a best approach to do this.
Parameters:
[RequiredArgument]
        [Input("InputEntity")]
        [ReferenceTarget("lead")]
public
InArgument<EntityReference>inputlead
{ get;
set; }

set; }
code:
   try
           Entity lead
= (Entity)service.Retrieve("lead",
context.PrimaryEntityId, new ColumnSet(newString[]
{ "new_mtcdate" })); // (unable to
retrieve the mtcdate)
                  Guid leadId
= this.inputlead.Get(executionContext).Id;

Hi,
Try with replacing
Entity lead = service.Retrieve("lead", context.PrimaryEntityId, new ColumnSet(new string[] { "new_mtcdate" }));
also make it confirm, you are getting EntityId.
