Different task in UWL than Business Workplace

Hi,
I have problem with tasks.
Why in Business Workplace (R/3) I have only tasks "In Progress"? But in UWL in SAP Portal I have all of status tasks?
What must I do? I want the same tasks in UWL and in Business Workplace.
thanks,
Bogdan

Hi,
Here is something you can do to troubleshoot the problem:
Open NetWeaver Administrator of your host
Go to Operation Management > Processes and Tasks > Manage Processes
Look if you can see your process under 'Processes in Error State', this is selected by default in the process list. If you can see the process there, you can probably see what is wrong with it in the 'Details of Process Instance' table. Look also for hints in the History tab where you can select to show advanced log items.
If your process is not shown in 'Processes in Error State', then you should be able to find it if you select to show 'All Running Processes'. Again have a look at the advanced details in the 'History' tab. Look for entries related to creation of tasks there, this means that a task has actually been created. You can see the active tasks in this process by clicking the 'Show tasks' button.
If this shows you a task, go to the 'Owners' tab to see that your user is actually a potential owner of the task.
Hope that this helps,
Vladimir

Configure uwl to business workplace

hai gurus
can any body tell me how to get the workitem in uwl ( the congiguration in uwl ).
regards
rose

The information you provide is incorrect!
RSWUWFML(2), as well as extended notifications (Balaji's response), is a report used to send work item notifications with or without attachments to a user's e-mail address.
UWL is a component which can display work items from multiple systems in one (Universal) Work List. It has no direct relationship to the solutions for sending work item notifications. The solutions can be used independent of each other, and one can use none of them, one of them, or both.

Rose, unfortunately I can't help you with UWL configuration. I have worked with it once, and there was a good documentation available from SAP. I just can't remember the name of the document. Where I have worked, that sort of configuration has been done by portal experts, i.e. not me.
Have you searched help.sap.com, service.sap.com and SDN for documentation?
What little I can recall is that the system landscape directory must have been set up, and then logical destinations (work item sources) are defined in terms of SLD entries. Then you assign these sources to the UWL. When all the sources have been set up there is functionality to perform the last step which sets up task-specific information (XML). I am sure you will find a lot of the information you need by searching SDN, although perhaps not as nicely compiled as in the document I had.

UWL: The request cannot be started from the Business Workplace?

Hi All
Please assist I am currently trying to execute the standard leave request approval within the UWL.
This is the standard leave approval screen for workflow template WS12300111.
I get the below error in a SAP ECC easy web screen.
The request cannot be started from the Business Workplace
Message no. HRTIM_ABS_REQ066
Can anyone give me any insight to this as I have made multiple changes tothe UWL config.
Regards
Maahir

BY seeing the error message I think you might have not registered the task in the Portal, as you are have mentioned easy web screen
1. When ever you are trying to execute the workitem from the UWL and you are able to See the SBWP SAP inbox in the browser then it means that the task of the workflow is not registered in the portal.
2. Please ask your portal team to register the task in UWL with corresponding visualization parameters.
[check for the parameters that are to be configured|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/20/f0c82c9f6748c58d9ea14b3bbed93a/frameset.htm]
You cannot execute a leave workitem from the Inbox. if you try to execute then it prompts the error message that you have mentioned.
Try to do check all the below points.
1. Check whether the task TS12300097 is registered in the SWFVISU txn it should be using a Java Application. with the parameters
APPLICATION     LeaveRequestApprover
DYNPARAM     wi_id=${item.externalId}
PACKAGE     sap.com/ess~lea
2. Second thing is make the task as General Task from the PFTC txn. so that the agent can approve
3. Ask the portal guys to register this task in the XML file where all the application specific task's are registred. and then try to execute the workitem, this time it will show you the leave request application.

Receipts with Different Task other than mentioned in PO

Hi,
I have a requirement where I have to receive the PO Line with a different task which was mentioned in PO using ROI.
Can anyone has any idea about it.
Thanks,
Rohit

Hi Rohit,
It is not allowed to receive against different task.
Alternate approach: Receive the PO in the respective project and task and then perform "Project Transfer" transaction to transfer the stock to intended task.
I am assuming "Oracle Project Manufacturing (PJM)" is enabled in your Inventory Organization.
Thanks,
PS.

Fede-

Take a look at CALL FUNCTION ... STARTING NEW TASK in your help documentation. Or you can use this link:
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/22/04259f488911d189490000e829fbbd/frameset.htm
You will use DESTINATION NONE.

Business Workplace - "Tips & Tricks"

I've just noticed a very, very cool feature in Business Workplace. When you go to your Inbox, and you hover over "Tips & Tricks," something appears, a bit like a Windows tooltip, except far more useful and far less annoying.
Does anyone know how I can get such a feature into an ABAP programme I write myself? It looks like it should be easy - probably something like set a property on an object and watch it happen. But I can't work it out, I think I must be looking in the wrong place...

Hi Robert,
The Preview Pane utilizes HTML controls. A new item for the "Tips & Tricks" is selected every time you click on a different workitem or deadline message. Function module SIN_WI_PREVIEW_TIPS gets the tip and builds the HTML.

This is regarding CBMA in SAP PI 7.3.1. I have set up the alert mail using default java mail client.I do receive the alerts via mail. But my requirement is to direct all the mails to Business workplace inbox in ECC.

This is regarding CBMA in single stack SAP PI 7.3.1. I have set up the alert mail using default java mail client.I do receive the alerts via mail. But my requirement is to direct all the alert mails to Business workplace inbox in ECC.
So I need to set up PI to redirect mails to ECC Business workplace user inbox (sbwp). From here rules are set up & routed per distribution list.
Please guide me how I can achieve this requirement.

Hi,
yes, it is a little bit different. This is the issue.....
But I am not sure if your links will help:
1) /people/william.li/blog/2008/02/13/sap-pi-71-mapping-enhancements-series-using-graphical-variable
is about a different solution. I do not need to count the number of lines of the source message.
And the second variable is about concat line by line from unbound node to unbound node.
My issue is:
Souce:
Message line (0...unbound) ! ! ! ! ! ! ! !
.    ResultLine   (1..1)
Mapping:
=>   ResultLine1
       ResultLine2
       ResultLine........          => into UDF to an element (1..1) in one mapping operation.
So that all "ResultLine"s are included.
The result is explained in the given link for Mail attachment with UDF.
So I am not sure how to use this thread for my issue.
In the comments of that blog Christoph Gerber writes that the new variable feature can only handle single values.
So it is not suitable for my purposes as I have a list of values here that needs to be moved into the target message field.
2) http://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/Java/UsingEditJavaSectioninMessageMapping
shows where to find the button "Java section" which is not available here in 7.1
3) /people/sap.user72/blog/2005/10/01/xi-new-features-in-sp14
too is about the nice little button for Java Section that is no longer existing on PI 7.1 screen for mappings.
So my issue is: How to replace the Java section function with global variables in PI 7.1?
Best regards
Dirk

Handle to a BPM task in UWL

Hello UWL Experts,
This is a follow up thread to the question that I have already posted in BPM forum [Handle to a Task in BPM;. The attempt here is to check if this issue could be simply solved in the context of UWL / rather than BPM.
Here goes the actual problem description.
1. There is a BPM process which parallely triggers the creation of a task (in UWL ) and creation + sending of a custom email form (HTML form containing the same task data) to a user at the same time.
2. If the user approves the task from Email (instead of logging into Portal / UWL), how to automatically close the task in UWL.
On capturing this event can I use any UWL API to close the UWL task? Will a custom UWL connector help in closing this task in UWL.?
Any pointers will be highly appreciated.
BR,
Bala

CE 7.2 provides Adobe forms for this and that would solve the problem. Also, the close task event could be triggered in CE 7.3. But in CE 7.1, there is no solution for this.

Access to Business Workplace Inbox

Hello,
I use SAP Netweaver Gateway with ODATA protocol.
Into Workflow Services metadata I cannot find which service offering the possibility to access to "Document" part of the "Inbox" coming from "Business Workplace":
Is it possible to access to theses information from the workflow services ?
Thanks in advance
Best regards.

Do we need to have "Task Gateway" installed and enabled to access to Inbox content ?
According to SAP NG documentation below it seems to be the case:

Merge business workplaces of 2 users

Hi all!
I would like to merge two business workplaces.
For those who care, some users are using two different logins, which is against the security rules of the company.
Unfortunately, some of those users are using the business workplace of there two logins.
I have managed to merge many things from the two logins into a unique one, but i am not able to give these users the content of theire business workplace (i.e. Inbox, Outbox and Personal Folder) of the two accounts into a single one.
Any clue about how to handle this?
Thanks a lot!

Email notification when creating a task in UWL

Hi all,
I have email well configured for workflow notification and subscription, but I can't find out why when I create a new task in UWL the email is not send.
Where do I have to configure email notification for new tasks?
I realised that these 2 things are necessary, and also the email configuration (I have the one for subscription and workflow notification):
1.- In System Administration ® System Configuration ® Universal Worklist & Workflow ® Workflow ® Engine ® Engine:
Notify Assignees On Task Creation --> TRUE
2.- When creating the task: Notify On Updates, Completion, and if Overdue is selected.
What else do I need?
Thanks,
Regards.

Hi Iker,
Could you please check the following documentation on the KM side?
The channels need to be configured on the KMC side too, and the user has to have a valid email address set up in Identity Management. We also need to be clear when we are speaking about notfications these are KMC notifications and not the backend workflow SAP Office documents. There is a bit of confusion sometimes regarding this. On the KMC side please consult the following documentation, that my colleague Cathal was nice to provide us with

Business Workplace mail

I have a Workflow that sends a mail to an employee in some cases. The employee can see it at SAP Business Workplace, but he has to check it periodically to know if there are or aren't a new message for him.
Are there any way to tell him he has a message with a pop up a message or something like this?
I know on TX SO16 there is the parameter "No notification of unviewed mails at logon" wich is usefull, but only for logon. If the user is on the system and doesn't logout for whole day he will not know he has a new message until tomorrow, unless he check it explicitly.
Thanks!

Hi,
Have you thought about the option to send a mail to the outlook of the user? As Glauco mentioned you can either send the mail to the outlook user by sending the mail through the send mail step of the workflow or make use of the report RSWUWFML2 to send the workitem itself to outlook and he can execute it from there.
Hope this helps,
Sudhi

No Reply Function in ESS Business Workplace for SAP Mail

Hi ESS Experts,
We sent a short message using ESS Business Workplace. The receiver of the message was able to read the message but is not able to reply to it. We need to make sure this is not just a settings issue since replying to short message is allowed in R/3 Business Workplace. Is this expected behavior? Is there a way to enable a reply for ESS Business Workplace?
Thanks in advance for your help.

Hyperlink in OO-ALV to Sap-Business- Workplace-Dokuments

Hello specialists,
I have implemented hyperlinks to an oo-based ALV-List
( please see sample code later ). Now we have the problem that these hyperlinks only work in a local network-area.
But we have also foreign-departments on our SAP-system, that have no access to our network.
Now the question: is it also possible to create hyperlinks
assigned to SAP-Business-Workplace-documents ?
Do you have a solution for this problem ?
Thank' s in advance !
