Demantra Workflow issue

Hi Guru's,
I have a issue with workflow. I created a new workflow and when I wanted to run, it is showning as Yellow (Not available process). This happens as soon as I bounce the instance. I could not run the workflow once. Why is this happening?
Thanks
Ramkri

Hi Ramkri,
If you are seeing the "START" button as disabled for your workflow. This means you cannt run it as you have configured it to be launched using a level method.
Once you remove the association of the workflow with your method, you will be able to launch it from the workflow manager page. (You might need a server re-start)
Also, would suggest, if possible you first define the workflow and ensure it works fine on its own. Then you shall try to launch it from a method.
Hope this helps.
Cheers
Raj

Oracle Demantra Workflow Job Monitoring

Hi Oracle,
An issue with work flows in long running status. Error ed workflow in demantra schema. This need to be monitored.
In Demantra schema, WF_PROCESS_LOG table stores Demantra workflows.
I need to design
Workflow monitoring alert, either through Demantra Alert Manager Or SCP Alert Manager responsibility Or Cron job. . Please guide me in this enhancement of this feature.
My current env..
Demantra - 7.3.2
ASCP -- 12.1.3

We had developed custom code which from within our EBS environment allows us to submit Demantra Workflows.
Once there, the code keeps on looping through the following check to see if the specific workflow has been completed:
SELECT COUNT(*)
INTO cnt
FROM wf_process_log
WHERE schema_id = v_schema_id
AND status = 1
AND process_id = buff;
where: v_schema_id = identified of the particular workflow submitted & buff = unique process ID to watch (as there could hypothetically be multiple processing running, not likely here, but in theory they could)...this info can be obtained from:
SELECT schema_id
INTO v_schema_id
FROM wf_schemas
WHERE schema_name = v_schema;
where: v_schema = name of the workflow being submited

Purchase order workflow issue

Hi All,
A PO is created and rejected by a user in user decision step.The workflow will end.If the PO is changed(amount) again,the release strategy is triggered for the same user.But the workflow is not triggering.If the release strategy is for a different user,its triggering the workflow.I have used a fork inside which 1 parallel branch contains a wait for significantly changed event & another branch contains the user decision step,po release step & rejection reason scenario.
Please refer the thread below.
PO Release Strategy Issue
Replies will be greatly appreciated.

Troubleshooting Approval workflow issues

We are getting this message from time to time and are unsure how to troubleshoot it.
It seems as though something is changing the document, what is the best way to figure out what?
Approval on DOCUMENT NAME has ended because the item that the task process is running on was changed.

Hi Daniel,
1.What message do you get?
2. Look in the Workflow History list, eg "http://sp2013/Lists/Workflow History". Do you find any errors in there?
3. Is the user account starting the workflow correctly synchronized in the user profile database?
4. Is the user account starting the workflow different from the Worflow Manager setup account? (more info at
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/jj658588.aspx#section7)
5. Are the User Profile Service and App Management Service started? See the green frames in the screenshot below, taken from Central Administration \ Manage Services on Server.
6.Are the App Management Service Application and User Profile Service Application started? Their proxies should be started as well. See the green frames in the screenshot below, taken from
Central Administration \ Manage Services on Server.

If the workflow calls a Plsql procedure and if you see the connection to the database in the session manager using TOAD or any tool, then Yes.

Workflow issue with interco transactions & general ledger entries in F-02

Hello Experts,
We are encountering a workflow issue when we are entering intercompany transactions with general ledger entries in F-02. Our workflow is set up with two release levels and the details are as follows:
Amount below $2500 - single release level
Amount above $2500 - two release levels
The document type that we are using is SU and it is configured with intercompany postings and trading partner enabled in the control data.
After parking a GL document that has interco amount entries below $2500 and general ledger amount entries above $2500 in F-02, the document is supposed to go to the two release levels in the workflow because the total amount is above $2500 (interco amount + general ledger amount > $2500). However, in the workflow, the document went to the single release level instead of the two release levels.
Any idea why the subledger amount takes precedent over the general ledger amounts in determining the workflow release level?
We would appreciate your help in solving this issue.

You cannot change the design of the system.
SAP may consider the change of design if all the users across the industries are reported. If a single user has a special requirement, it cannot be changed.
You need to ask, whether this is a critical requirement for your business. Otherwise, please follow the standard way.

LR 3 Bug Report - file renaming error - significant workflow issue

System configuration:
MacPro Dual 2x2.66Ghz Dual Core Intel Xeon
9GB RAM
OSX 10.6.4
Lightroom Application on System Drive
Canon .CR2 files and Lightroom Catalog on internal software-based RAID drive
Camera Raw Cache set to 50GB and resident on System drive
Here is the issue:
Once I finish the first round of editing a group of photos, I then rename them with the title of the event and a sequence number. I use LR's batch rename feature in the Library module. If I then delete 1 or more of these photos and attempt to rename them again(same event title + numerical sequence), the new names do not properly apply the numerical sequence after the filename. Either of the following can happen, and whcih one will happen is not dependednt on what I do.
1. The files can be renamed, with the first image having a sequence number 1 number higher than the lowest number I typed into the sequence box in the batch rename dialog (if I type a number 1, the sequence starts at 2). There are also random gaps in the sequence numbering scheme. For example, the numbers will count to 15, then skip to 17, then count to 176, then skip to 178. The rest of the files might be renamed correctly, or there might be gaps. The gaps always skip a single number, and most of the time the numbers skipped are odd numbers, though numbers with a 16 are usually skipped (16, 116, 216)
2. The files can be renamed as mentioned above, but with the addition of a -1 to the end of the sequence (example: filename-200-1 or filename-3-1). The addition of the -1 is also random, though it is more common with lower-numbered files than higher-numbered files.
I have experienced this bug on groups as small as 50 photos or as large as several hundred. I have tried remaning the files to a completely different text/sequence combination and then back to the one I want, and it does not help the issue. The sequence numbering is more likely to have more gaps the more virtual copies are present in the series of photos being renamed.
This is a major workflow issue for me because the files I deliver have to be named sequentially, without gaps, following a specific text/numer naming convention. The bug is currently adding many extra hours to my post-production time. Any assitance would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you

Thanks for the detailed description. I was able to repro this with your steps and have logged a bug for futher investigation.

Workflow issue after upgrade to ECC 6.0

Hi,
we are facing an workflow issue and thought if someone has faced similar issue and could help us.
We've an approval workflow for purchase requisitions through release strategies. For some steps, if the approver is 'WF-BATCH' user, we are executing that step using a program. This program first set the workitem to completed status( this part is working), then it will close the purchase requisition to release status for a particular release code( this part is working) and then we are triggering the 'RELEASE' event for the business object providing the Object key which should take it to the next step( THIS IS NOT WORKING). The business object is custom. This was working perfectly in 4.7 version of SAP but this logic is not working in ECC6.0. we are using SAP_WAPI_CREATE_EVENT to trigger the event. But the workflow doesn't move on to next step.
Have anyone of you have any idea as why this might be happening. Any information on this would be of great help.
This is happening in ECC 6.0. USED TO WORK IN EARLIER VERSION.
Regards,
Sam K

Hi,
Is WF-BATCH having proper auth. ?
Or, if you are using the FM SAP_WAPI_CREATE_EVENT in some program and is scheduled as a batch job, then that user under which this batch job is runnign should have proper auth. to raise the event. Please check those.
Also, what the error (if any) says in SWEL ?

Workflow issue-Agent not maintained

Hi All,
I have a workflow issue. For a PR, the workflow is throwing up the error as :
"Agent not maintained for plant XXXX planner group XXXX release code.
Please maintain an agent for the above key in the Agent AssignmentTable,and forward the workitem with text "Release requisition XYZ" in your Workflow inbox to an appropriate Approver."
Please help me out on this one.
Thanks,
Swati.

HI
Check 'Agent Assignment' in not green..
Then push the button 'Agent.Assign for TASK' in front of 'Agent Assignment'.
Next, You can go the maintain screen.
Push 'F8' or 'Attributes...' and check 'General Task'.
and try again..
Good luck

Content Workflow Issue using Cineform/PPro/AE

Hello, I have a potential workflow issue that I need some advice on. I'm currently editing a project in Premiere Pro CS3 using the Cineform intermediate codec (the video was shot in HDV--Canon HV30--imported using AspectHD). Everything is working fine.
However, I'd like to export some of the video of this project off to a portable hard drive to physically hand over to someone who will be importing it into After Effects CS3 (on a completely different hardware system) to spice things up for me--i.e. they are going to make a flashy intro/title for this project.
Lastly, I would like to re-import her finished video back into Premiere. She does not have the Cineform codec so exporting it as a cineform.avi file is out (I would think--or am I incorrect here?). My question is mainly--what is the best file format to hand over to my AE person AND what is the best file format for my AE person to give back to me to re-import into Premiere and keep it all in HD/HDV 16:9?
I have no idea if this is a really easy thing, or really challenging. Any thoughts or suggestions are greatly appreciated.
Bill

Hi Bill
well the best person to answer that question is the lady who is doing the afterv fx work for you. only she knows what her system can handle. I would recommend first and foremost uncompressed avi if she is on windows or uncompressed .mov if she is on a mac. otherwise if she cannot handle uncompressed because the file is too big you could give her a quicktime animation. i think the file is a little smaller than uncompressed but i could be wrong. but qt animation is still a big file. you could also render out the video as an image sequence I recommend a TIFF sequence suing LZW compression to keep the file sizes down. give her the image sequence she can add the fx and then she can render out the final product as an image sequence again which you can match up with the audio track on your pc. she can also give you an uncompressed file which you can then render out to cineform.

Demantra Workflow Migration to other Instance

Hi All,
We have created a small demantra workflow. Is there any way to migrate the same demantra workflow to other instance.
Please help me out.
Regards,
Ajay Kunde

Hi Ajay,
Demantra provides us the capability of exporting the data model as a dump file.This dump file can be imported into the new instance to migrate all the objects of one instance to the new instance.This approach will be helpful when there are many Demantra objects to be migrated.
But in case where the objects are very little, it is always advisable to recreate the objects in the new instance to avoid post migration work.
I hope I answered your query. Expecting more replies and perspectives.
Regards,
Shekhar

Issue in demantra workflow

Hi all,
I am using demantra 7.3.1 version,In that how exactly the * conditional step * works real time
for ex:if I query in sql space as select 1 from table where approve=0 here my logic is that table should not contain any record as 0 if it is found it should execute false else true( so my question is that above query is more than enough for this conditional step to work or is that we need to pass any parameters???

Hi,
unless there's a new release strategy found and unless a release code is set, which is a prerequesite to another release code, there will be no further events for BUS2012.ReleaseStepCreated.
From another point of view:
For each release code that is open, there is exactly once an event .ReleaseStepCreated.
Depending on the customizing, changes to the object may reset all given release codes. The common understanding is a "within 2% value change" doesn't reset the release.
If you need to have your workflow triggered on changes, as well, you'd be off with linking it to the .Changed event. To keep compatibility with the standard's event, I won't recommend to create a .ReleaseStepCreated by another linkage (such as the .Changed-event).
Best wishes,
Florin
