Decoupled workflow tasks\steps

hi,
I am totally new to workflow, I have  a requirement to create a workflow like this:
suppose these are the steps\tasks in the workflow sequence.
Task1->task2->task3->task4
it should be possible for me to remove a task, add a task etc. with just changes in config. So it should be configurable\pluggable.
In each step at the start of the application, the adminstrator should be able to assign who should approve\sign off each task. This should be done through changing values in tables. (additional info: Each task should also have a checklist which is also configurable. the approver of each task will also have to update some data for the transaction which will at the end of the application be displayed in a document. )
How do I go about doing this so that minimum effort is required to change a workflow sequence (add\remove tasks)
thank you

Hi,
According to your post, my understanding is that you want to open task with appropriate Edit form.
If you use the "CreatTaskWithContentType" activity, to know the content type and open the appropriate Edit form, you need to remove Inherits=”True” attribute of the content type, and redeploy it, then use it in workflow to check whether it works.
You can refer to the following links to check whether there are steps that are missed:

  • Workflow Tasks NOT expiring!

    Hi guys,
    I've bumped lately with an issue building a workflow on SP2010, as you mostly already have figured out from the title, workflow tasks are NOT expiring.
    I've tried to take this on my own, but no more as I have to move on. Here's the details;
    -a custom workflow (attached to a custom list) that has start custom task as its first action.
    -due date for custom task is set in "select task process participants", Due Date for Task Process. and is set to run parallel (I have one participant for the task).
    -the custom task have only the "behavior of a single task" configured, all task workflow steps are there.
    When a Task is Pending fires well, and it ends with Pause for 2 minutes > then send email. then task due date reaches but
    When a Task Expires never kicks! tasks simply stays at status "Not Started"
    when I check the workflow history, it shows the last log "pausing completed", but I suspect the main issue is with the task processor, task isn't expiring and im not sure where to look.
    timer job service is working, I've checked timer jobs (workflow auto cleanup, workflow failover and bulk workflow task processing) and they're all running in timely fashion now.
    any thoughts?
    thanks

  • How to set a custom column in a workflow task.

    Hello,
    I'm looking for some assistance a bit with how to set a custom column in a Workflow Task.
    I have a List Workflow that starts when an item is created in a list. The workflow, platform type SharePoint 2013, starts a new task, Task1, with Content Type 1. This Content Type has a custom column called Age. Once the Task1 is completed a new task, Task2,
    with Content Type 2, starts and has the same column Age, as Task1.
    How can I populate the Age column in Task2 with the content of the Age column in Task1?
    Since I start the task by running "Assign a task to ..." Action I was thinking to copy the Age column from the Task1 to the list item that started Task1, which has a column Age as well, and then in Task2 to start another workflow - which is associated
    with the Content Type 2,  that would try to read the Age column from the list item that started Task2, which was set once Task1 was competed - I know it's complex but this is how I was thinking. 
    The problem with this approach is that I can't get a reference to the list item that started Task2 to read the Age from the list item.
    Is there a better approach? I use SharePoint Designer 2013 to design all this.
    Any assistance is appreciated.
    Thank you.

    Hello Sebastian,
    you can get the Age column from Task 1 and then update the Task 2 Age column with that value. I am not sure why you want to run another workflow on Task 2.
    You can perform below steps to set Age column from Task 1 to Task 2.
    1.  Create Task 1 using Assign a task , wait till the task is completed.
    2. Get the Age column value based on Task 1 once the task is completed.
    3.Create Task 2 using Assign a task ,  uncheck wait till the task is completed option.
    4. Update the Task 2 with Age column in Task1.
    5. Use Wait for the field to equal value , check for Task Status is completed or not.
    >>The problem with this approach is that I can't get a reference to the list item that started Task2 to read the Age from the list item.
    you can get the related item from task list item to get the main list item.
    Other option is, Use Javascript and CSOM  in task edit form to get the Age column from Task1 and prepoluate the Age value when Task2 is opened.
    Hope this helps.

  • Why do I not get the checkout option when clicking on the document link in the SharePoint workflow task?

    We are trying to use workflows to review and edit pdf files in sharepoint 2010. We are having a couple of issues and am hoping someone has the answer.....
    1)  When myself and coworkers click on the pdf document in the library, we get the check out option as expected.  However when we click on the document link in a workflow task (on the sharepoint site), the pdf opens as a temporary file and we do not get the check out option.  Why does this happen????? 
    2)  The same thing happens when we click on the document link in the workflow task email;   HOWEVER,  one of our co-workers does get the check out option when clicking on the link in the email task.  Why would she get the checkout option using the email and not when clicking on the link in the task list on the sharepoint site ????  We have compared our internet settings and adobe settings to ours and found no differences.
    We are using Sharepoint 2010, Windows 7, IE8, Adobe Reader X or XI.  Some of us have Adobe Pro X and have the same issues.

    No the person who can check out using the link in the email has the same permissions as me.  We have looked at all kinds of settings, profile etc and nothing evident can be determined to explain the reason.  However, one difference we did notice is that this person does not have a default web browser set and thus when clicking on items to open, it always pops up a dialog box asking which program to use to open it with.  This person chooses Adobe Reader and it opens on the Sharepoint server as it should and she gets the checkout option in a dialog box just like clicking on the document in the library.  My theory is that this step of choosing the program to open with is interrupting the typical way a pdf file is handled when clicking on URL links to the document, which is…. it is opened as temporary internet file rather than on the Sharepoint server.   Hopefully someone can figure this out ☺

    1) I have assigned a workflow(sub workflow) in a activity step in main workflow and assigned workflow task no ws99900258 in that step.i have tried to assign agents as general task.
    i couldn't do it.its showing that please place the cursor..some thing.

    Hi Ramesh,
    1. Open the workflow ws99900258 in tcode PFTC,
         Menu options -- > additional data-->agent assignment --> maintain --> select your workflow (this is where you are missing)
         click on "atttributes' buttone..
         Make it as general.
    2. In your workflow some of the elements are mandatory,  pass the required value into that element.
    This is you have to mention in the Binding ..

  • Workflow Task

    Can anyone give me some idea regarding Workflow task and what is the use of this.
    Thanks

    As long as you talk about workflow it is considered to be a custom workflow (task definition).
    It consists of set of WFProcesses, Actviitiee, Actions Manual actions combinied together helps to implent a custom workflow process.
    For ex: In a typical organization the email (lotus notes) access requests should be preprocessed. For such case user/user mgr will make a request which will be processed by the respective hireharcy and completed. Workflow will facilitate to complete this process steps.

  • Workflow task in UWL

    Hi there,
    I am trying to configure a workflow task so that it can be launched from the UWL as an ABAP Web Dynpro. I have enhanced the service notification business object BUS2080 so that a workflow is triggered on status change. Administrators are notified of this change
    The work item is sent to several administrators, and is appearing in the UWL correctly. I have configured the table SWFVISU for the task as an ABAP web dynpro with parameters:
    APPLICATION QIMT_NOTIFICATION_APP
    NAMESPACE SAP
    in order to launch the standard notification web dynpro from the work item. However, even after clearing the cache and re-registering the items list in the portal the XML is not being generated. The examples I have seen use the Decision step type to launch ABAP dynpro, however the task I am using is Activity step type. Is this the problem ?

          <Actions>
            <Action name="launchWebDynPro" groupAction="" handler="SAPWebDynproABAPLauncher" returnToDetailViewAllowed="yes" launchInNewWindow="yes" launchNewWindowFeatures="resizable=yes,scrollbars=yes,status=yes,toolbar=no,menubar=no,location=no,directories=no">
              <Properties>
                <Property name="WebDynproApplication" value="zwda_hr_emp_wiwt_movmnt_revert "/>
                <Property name="newWindowFeatures" value="resizable=yes,scrollbars=yes,status=yes,toolbar=no,menubar=no,location=no,directories=no"/>
                <Property name="DynamicParameter" value="WI_ID=${item.externalId}"/>
                <Property name="openInNewWindow" value="yes"/>
                <Property name="WebDynproNamespace" value="sap"/>
                <Property name="System" value="SAP_ECC"/>
                <Property name="display_order_priority" value="5"/>
              </Properties>
              <Descriptions default=""/>
            </Action>
          </Actions>
    In the Actions, for propertyhandler mention the value as  SAPWebDynproABAPLauncher instead of UserDecisionHandler and in the back ground make sure that you complete the workitem by using SAP_WAPI_WORKITEM_COMPLETE in case of simple activity step.

  • Role Assignment to Workflow Tasks

    Hi Experts,
    Any hints on below requirement please :
    Details:
    1. For a role in transaction PFCG, I don't see the Workflow tab
    2. For the same role in transaction SUIM, I can see the Workflow tab and the tasks assigned.
    3. Now, I have a list of workflow tasks and I need to assign Role X, Role Y to all of them
    What is the correct and best way out to do this
    - Role-Task Assignment ::: Is it enough if I add all the workflow tasks in SUIM transaction(workflow tab) for both roles X,Y
    or
    - Task-Role Assignment ::: Can I assign both Roles X,Y in pftc transaction for each of the workflow tasks
    or
    - Both need to be done
    Thanks in advance ...
    ~Ali~

    Hi Ali,
    Answers for your questions:
    1. Transfer Missing Elements: YES
         With this step, new elements will create in the task container based on the method container elements and creates the binding b/w them. It is better to choose YES and after that, if you dont require the binding, you can delete it for respective elements.
    2. YES, we need to follow the same procedure.
    3. Basically production system is having the mandatory configurations like RFC destinations and Classify tasks are general, probably no other activities are required.
    4. For this, I am also waiting for other folks reply.

  • Problem in Workflow matching step

    Hi,
    I am facing a problem in Workflow matching step. I have user kaushikb assigned to it.
    Execution Type: Any Single, Assignee Type: User and Execution Type: Any Single.
    Match Record Scope: Records vs Records, Strategy: MDM_NAME.
    This Strategy: MDM_NAME is based on 3 rules: MDM_NAME1, MDM_NAME2 and MDM_NAME3.
    MDM_NAME1 is done based on transformations MDM_NAME1[XFM], MDM_NAME2[XFM] and MDM_NAME3[XFM].
    Now my problem is even after matching and merging a large number of records it is not going to
    the next step. Do I need to match and merge all duplicate records? If the Matching process is rerun
    the score becomes less as the same records are compared again. After this the link assume gets activated and then clicking it activates the next step.
    Regards
    Kaushik Banerjee

    Hi Kaushik,
    Match step is an Automated step in the MDM workflow.On selecting this step you need to mention the strategy that needs to run on the records to match them.When you reach the Match step you need to Perform the step to run the mentioned Strategy .
    When you Perform the Match step it will display the Matching result provided you select the Matching mode in MDM data manager.
    You can merge or not merge the matched records Once your Matching is performed by the system, You can move your Workflow to the Next step which is Process.
    When you are selecting Any single as your execution type it means you have more tahn one user for executing this task but you want any single one of them to perform it.
    So whenever you have selected Any single as the excution type for any process .The user accepting to perfrom the task needs to Accept the task .
    So when User1 wants to perform the task he will have to select Accept and then proceed with the task.
    When the owner of the workflow is testing the entire workflow he needs to Assume the task as he is not the Assigned user but the Assumed one.
    So if you have build your workflows correctly and moving in step as explained you should be able to select the next step
    You can follow the below link to understand the process better:
    https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/d0be83e4-a1e6-2a10-c1be-8395ae948844

  • Project link in workflow task in PS 2013

    Hi Folks,
    I just created new WF using SPD and every thing goes fine.
    I just wondering, when approver receives a tasks to take an action how would he/she know what project needs approval, except for the name. Meaning how can the user access details of project  before approving it?
    Following are workflows task and how I can get a link to that particular project for which the task has been generated.
    Thanks, Kashif

    I think that no possible with task text description, imho.
    Maybe you can used own html for preview workitem - on workflow step goto Preview workitem and press Demo func modules. Select SWL0_PREVIEW_DEMO_HTML, for example. Now you can copyied this FM into own Z* and place static URL into FM body.
    If URL must be dynamic - try create URL like SOFM object (FM SO_OBJECT_CREATE) and attach this BO instance to your workitem using SAP_WAPI_ATTACHMENT_ADD. This procedure can be placed in backround step of workflow.

    Thank you for any help you can give me.

    Here is how I solved this problem: I was told by the metalink folks that I should use the same verion of SOA console as jdev. So I went back to jdev 10.1.3.1. Rather than reading from the Oracle lite table, I dumped the table into a flat file. I read flat file and populated the workflow. Remember to set the 'messages in batch' flag in the file adapter to 1 and the number of records to skip to zero in the format builder for the flat file. The process now reads each record and creates an instance for that each record. In other words, if I have 8 records in my flat file, I will have 8 instances of the process running on the console. Thanks Jeremy for your help figuring this out.

  • Details: System.ArgumentException: AssignedTo at Microsoft.Activities.Hosting.Runtime.Subroutine,sharepoint 2013 designer workflow task cancellation

    We are getting sharepoint 2013 designer workflow task cancellation only for a specific sharepoint user. Its working for other users.
    MCTS Sharepoint 2010, MCAD dotnet, MCPDEA, SharePoint Lead

    Hi Amit,
    Based on the error message, I recommend to check if the user with issue has user profile generated in User Profile Service Application.
    Please also check the ULS log for detailed error message and a screenshot of the workflow steps for further research.
    Thanks,
    Victoria
