Decision step workitem is not created

Hi Friends,
I have created one simple custom workflow , it contains two steps
Decision and maill step , once decision step is executed mail should have to go.
In decision step , user1 is used and in mail step user2 is used. I am exeuting the workflow from user1 Now it is working fine.
But the problem is No decision step workitem is created in user2. In the case , in decision step, user2 is used and in mail step user2 is used. I am exeuting the workflow from user1
Please give suggestion.
Regards ,
Krishnan R.

Hi,
The possibilities might be,
1. Check in the decision step that what type recipient type u selected.. If WFINITIATOR is choosen then in this case all the time the workitem...will jst go to the initiator who ever tryies to execute the workflow.
2. If you are using user then just make sure that the user you are using is a dialog user. you can check this in su01 txn.
3. If you are using expression in the step then make sure that you concatenate US to the user name you are trying to user in your case it should be 'USUSER2'.
4. Also makse sure that the in SWU3 the task generalization is customized with respect to decision task.
5. Also make sure that the user has right authorizations to receive the workitem.. Authorizations issue can also be one of the factors.
By the way if the workitem is not going to user2 then to whom it is actually sent... check in the wf log from swi1 txn.

Decision Step Workitem Layout

Hello,
can anybody provide me with a solution how to change the design of an decision step?
I have to different decisions available, when I am opening the workitem in my SAP inbox, I want them to have different background colors, so that it is easier for the users to get the right decision.
Thanks a lot for your help,
Christoph

Hi Christopher,
There is a solution for this.
I think better to create your own decision box rather than to go for the standard one.
In that case you have create you own DECISION layout with the buttons and other layout that you want in a module pool program and attach that module pool program in the ACTIVITY (dummy one) that you have created.
There go to the display tab and give the name of the Module pool program at the Display tab and at the timje of execution there wuill be another tab with the page that you have created.
If you liem to have this solution, then please reply me, I would know you kore about this topic.
Award points if useful.

(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

I am confused i your third point.
. In the Approved branch of the Decision step check for the condition , if it fails then raise the exception.that you have define in the Point 1. in the exception branch insert the logic so that the condition becomes true, after that step insert one more decision step.
how i 'll raise the raise the exception do i need to create and task or any other step.
also can you please explain below point in detail.

Decision WorkItem is not coming in inbox

HI,
I have created a customized workflow, in which i am showing a document and then taking user decision on that document wheather to reject or approve the document. The workflow is running fine in client 100. But in testing client 200 it is not showing decision step to the user. After showing the document it comes back to inbox and don't ask for the decsion as its doing in client 100.
Workflow is not showing any error. It is going to decesion step but not doing anything.

HI:
Check with the Basis consultant that did any body changed the password of the WF-BACTH user ,
it might happen some times if the user password is changed then the workitems do not reach to the Inbox
Another option you have to execute the function module RH_LOCAL_INBOX_GET to check if the workitem is being picked.
Next one SWWORGTASK and SWWUSERWI tables and check your user name should have prefix 'US'.

Decision step with method before workitem execution

I have a decision step, which uses method before workitem execute uses BO Bus2094 - 'Display' method.
When an agent receives a workitem, try to execute the workitem 'Getting an information message 'Error when starting submethod'.
When i see the information of the error -
"At least one submethod could not be processed.
See the technical Workflow log to determine the error cause."
When i check technical log of workitem, 2 steps are in error mode.
1. Dialog work item executed - Error when starting submethod
2. EXECUTE_METHODS - System error in asynchronous method start
This is happening in Quality system, not in DEV system.
Any inputs to resolve this.

Hi,
@Sivagami: I wonder, how a container element e.g. BUS2094 that was passed to a copy of the DECISION task is automatically executed just before the decision dialog? Good stuff, if it works like this, I'll try this at a later time.
@Indira: Depending on the Release and such things I have expirienced several smaller bugs regarding the decision steps, especially when extending the data flow (from/to workitem), using the in-place-decision Workitem exit. So maybe you're already doing everything right, but just the inbox doesn't works as designed.
To work around this problem, you could enter the object methods as a secondary method, which then will display the Sales document in a separate window,
or you follow the proposal of Sivagami. If the Sales document doesn't seem to appear, you could enforce the display, by globally substitute the business object DECISION to one of your own, re-define the object's method Process that read the business object fromt the work item container and executes it's display method, which is basically the same result you'd like to have.
Best wishes,

Link in User Decision step not showing correctly in UWL

Hi SAP Experts,
I have a requirement to add a link in a user decision step, this link triggers a custom webdynpro for additional input. When I access the workitem from Business Workplace, the link is showing fine. But when I execute the workitem in UWL, the link is not displayed, instead the code is shown (<a>...</a>). Please advise on what I should do to have the link working. Thanks in advance.

Hi,
This same thing was just recently discussed. I just cannot find the thread anymore (well, in that thread there was not really any solution). Basically the hyperlinks in work item do not seem to work in UWL as they should. I don't know if there are any way to make them work. My suggestion is to not use the hyperlink at all and replace that with an action (=button) to the task in the UWL. This can be achieve quite easily by simple XML configuration in portal. If you have worked with UWL this should be quite straightforward for you, or if there is a consultant at the site, who is familiar with UWL, this should be simple for him/her.

Cancel and keep workitem in ready state in user decision step

Hi,
In a user decision step,there is a default option 'Cancel and keep the work item'.
Now clicking on this option, the workitem goes into "Inprogress state"
whereas i want to keep the workitem in "ready state" after i click on the option 'Cancel and keep the work item'.
I am trying to modify the Process method of Decision Object type to incorporate this funcationality by using FM "SAP_WAPI_PUT_BACK_WORKITEM.
but im getting the error that this FM cannot be used at runtime.
Place where im trying to call this FM:
After the FM'SWU_PROCESS_MANUEL_DECISION'
I am getting the value of RESULT.
If result is SPACE or sy-subrc is not 00 then i am calling this Fm which takes Wi_id of the userdecision as input.
Kindly help
Regards

Hi,
Let me ask you this. Why you need to have this in "Ready" state, Not in "IN PROCESS" state. Anyway, the witem is still there in the user's inbox, and if you have any deadline monitoring, then this is also taken care with "Cancel and keep xxxx". So, i think, functionally you'll still be better with the existing functionality.
And, with all this, if you are still trying to change, then i think it's NOT possible. If i understand correctly, you are trying to use the FM "SAP_WAPI_PUT_BACK_WORKITEM" within the PROCESS method. And, if you understood the functionality of how this works, you are trying to set the status of the SAME witem for which you are executing the PROCESS method.
THe way i understand the behind-the-scenes process, once you make a decision and save, this method is the one which in turn sets the witem status. And within that, you CANNOT capture the status as it is yet to be posted to the Witem tables.
Probably, after this decision step, use a different background task with the above FM to set the witem status to "Ready", BUT NOT IN THE SAME METHOD of PROCESS.
Also, it's not advisable to change this std. method.
Hope this helps you. Reply,if you need more info.

Description changes not reflecting in User Decision step

Hi,
I am displaying the ECM (cc01) description in the workflow user decision step. In this user decision step I do have three options
    1. Changes completed (to move the ECM to next level)
    2. Edit ECM (Calls ECM n change mode CC02)
    3. Cance (standard)
If I choose Edit ECM, and change the description in the ECM and come back to the user decision step, it still shows the older description some cases. In some cases I am getting the updated description in user decision step. In Edit ECM step I am using Z method which is the copy the standard BO method Edit_synchron of ECM to call the transaction CC02.
Z method does not contain any importing or exporting parameters. Also in the workflow<->Task binding I bound ECM <-> _WF_Object_ID.
Thanks,
Muruganantham

2 case:
1.) Description not changing: How the description get populated in user decision step ? Is it some varibale get populated based on select query ?
2.) Description get changed: Please check the new workflow instance get created and you can only see changed text in new instance. Already triggered workflow will not show the changed value.
Please check the worklow design, whether its creating new workflow instance on every change in ECM ?

Note in user decision step

Dear Experts,
I have requirement to add a note in user decision step to allow the user to enter comments while approving or rejecting workitem in UWL. I have enabled the note using XML file. I read that this comments will be captured in workflow container element attachobjects. My requirement is to send the comments entered by approver to initiator via mail. Please let me know how to capture the comments from UWL note to send mail step.
Br,
Bharath

Hi Rick,
Thanks for your reply.
I have got the attachments in container element attachobjects. Can you please tell me how to get the text entered by the user from this step because currently I have SOFM instance in hand. I am not sure how to convert this to some form and extract the user comments alone. Are there any FM that can help to do this.

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Unfortunately, if Apple simply allowed people to log into different accounts and download content, everyone would be using everyone could share everyone else's content and bypass the need to purchase anything. To protect against this, they limit you to logging into a new account to once every 90 days.
If two or more of you, have different accounts and use only one computer, you should each have your own user account on the computer, to avoid the need to log in and out of iTunes.

Terminating Event with Decision Step

Hi,
In our purchase requisition approval workflow, I need to have a decision step in which to prompt approver to either approve the req. or reject the requisition. In this decision step, I need for it to have terminating events for "SIGNIFICANTLYCHANGED", "RELEASE", "REJECT" and "RESET".
First, I copy the generic decision task 8267 to my my own custom decision task. Then I added a BUS2009 in the container, releasecode and other needed elements. In this custom decision task, I was able to add these terminating events that has been defined in the BUS2009. I was able to setup binding, except the one binding
Terminating Event ->   Task
&_EVT_OBJECT&      ->   &_WI_OBJECT_ID&
Since the &_EVT_OBJECT& for the terminating event is BUS2009. And the custom decision task &_WI_OBJECT_ID& is DECISION business object. They're incompatable business object. So I replaced that binding with
Terminating Event     -> Task
&_EVT_OBJECT&    ->   &PURCHASE_REQ&
After all the configuration has been setup. I created a new purchase requisition. Upon the RELEASESTEPCREATED event, it create a custom decision workitem in my agent's inbox. When I triggered the "RELEASE" event, it is however not terminating my custom decision workitem. The workitem still sits in the agent's inbox waiting to be execute.
Is it possible to setup terminating events for decision step? Any kind of suggestions or inputs would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you.

I will suggest you to create a fork with 2 parallel branch and 1 necessary branch. Put the approval step in 1 branch and the wait for Release step event in another branch in this way you can suffice your requirment.

Decision Step in Workflow inbox in NWBC

Hi All,
As of now when I click on any task in my Business workflow inbox then it takes me to a Decision Step in workflow but this screen is displayed as GUI , but need to find a Webdynpro replacement for this Decison Step.
This is a standard Decision task step with minimal configuration, so want to know if there is any standard SAP provided Web dynpro to replace this.
Thanks
Kumar

Hi,
It would be better to use the custom webdynpro application.
Please follow the below steps...
Create a Separate Webdynpo Application ( WDA ) where you need to put all the option as SBWP by coding.
After that you need to configure the SWFVISU.
Run Tcode SWFVISU.
here, select "Task Visualization' and maintain your standard task ( TS ) with ABAP web dynpro option.
Now selct your entry and click on Visualization Parameters as mentopn below.
APPLICATION ( WD application name )
DYNPARAM
NAMESPACE
SYSTEM_ALIAS
Second, ask Portal team to chagne the XML code for the above standard task and application ( i.e. WD appilcation which will be launced on clicking the task ).
From the next run of the workflow, WD applcitoon will be lauched from the protal.
for the old workitem this will not work.
Thanks and regards,
Sanjay

Adobe form as attachment to user decision step

Hi,
i need to add adobe form as attachement to user decision step in workflow.
1. i created activity step which call business object method with parameters workitem id
     i am using FM SAP_WAPI_ATTACHMENT_ADD’ which will return attribute id
     i am passing that attribute with document id to 'ZSOFM'
        ZSOFM <-----------------------------------ZSOFM (Method to task)
      Bindings 'Attach_objects' <------------- ZSOFM(Task to Workflow).
2. i created user decision step
    Bindings 'Attach_objects' --------------------> 'Attach_Objects'( Workflow to user decision task).
but when we execute first activity step in background i am not getting any PDF output .but when we execute same method from class i can see pdf data is coming is it due to user name WF-Batch.
when i execute activity step in back ground which will have sy-uname as WF-Batch i am not getting any PDF output data.
please help how to solve .
Thanks,
Phani

In transaction SWO1 create a z-object lets say zmyobjpdf (you might want to use it as a sub object of your standard object without delegation since they will probably have the same key).
create a method in that object calling the adobe form.
set it as the default method in the object header.
now create an instance of the zmyobjpdf in the workflow for example as an attribute of the original object) and transfer it to the decision task.
It will be displayed as an attached object pressing it will call the default method - your adobe form.
If your question was about how to create a function module to display the form see SAP Library - PDF-Based Forms
