Dynamic columns in Business Workplace

Hi All ,
   We have an issue with Dynamic columns in Business Workplace ....We have changed the standard layout of the inbox with additional Dynamic Column with displays the Last Reserved By user of the Workitem...
Issue is that - the value is not refreshed in the Dynamic column whenever user chooses the Refresh button in the inbox..
Please let me know how to update the Dynamic column on choosing refresh in the inbox..
Thanks for your help in advance...
Thank you
Srinivas

Are you sure it is not refreshing, i.e. sure it is not a problem in your customer part of the solution? Try changing your attribute so the dynamic column displays the (current) time, retrieved as a virtual attribute on the business object. Then see if it is updated when you refresh.

  • "Dynamic column" in the workplace

    Hi experts.
    Do somebody know the possible uses of the "Dynamic column" field in the task registers of the Workflow inbox? You can add some dynamic columns via the "select layout" menu of the workplace but they seem to be empty.
    I'm wondering if I can put some custom dynamic information on them via workflow definition (information such like users names or maybe some filter criteria) in order to help the user to show and order the active tasks easily.
    Any help on this topic will be interesting for me.
    Thank you all!!
    Ismael

    Hi Ismael,
    Dynamic columns are specific to each task, you can define them using tx SWL1.
    Once defined, the dynamic column fields should now be available. However they do take a performance hit and obviously the fields are not applicable to all tasks. For this reason it is not a good idea to have a dynamic column as a default layout, but to use them in the in the task-based inbox views:
    In the workplace view Inbox -> Workflow -> Grouped by task -> the task you just defined (you must have a workitem of that task already in your inbox). Define a layout and save it as a default, teach your users to navigate to a task if they want to use the columns.
    Of course some users can still create their own workflow inbox view with dynamic columns if e.g. the majority of their work is a particular task.
    Cheers,

  • Special characters in SBWP dynamic columns are not showing for some users

    Hi experts,
    We have set up a dynamic columns for business workplace. One of the field displays the comments entered by the user. Some users are able to see the values entered perfectly. But for some users, if we enter special characters like @gopal, it is not displaying the value in dynamic column.
    Are there any workflow/user settings need to be changed.
    Thanks
    Gopal

    I had the same issue, you should check the link between AD and CRM, so you could make a new user in AD and connect your CRM account with it, then you should return the old AD account back. It worked for me, try it :)

  • Dynamic column in Workflow inbox

    HI All ,
         I would like to add a dynamic column in the SBWP layout which reflects the Last reserved by user...
        Any suggestion will surely be rewarded...
    Thank you
    Srinivas

    Hi Srinivas,
    the value will be updated each time the work item is <i>reserved</i>. When it is put back again, this value just stay as it was before.
    The virtual attributes gets refreshed when the inbox is refreshed (by refresh-button or by re-entering the Workplace).
    The algorithm to determine the last user, who has reserved, is the following:
    DATA: user_id_last_reserved    TYPE SWWLOGHIST-meth_user.
    CLEAR user_id_last_reserved.
    SELECT SINGLE meth_user
                  FROM SWWLOGHIST
                  INTO user_id_last_reserved
                  WHERE wi_id  = object-key-workitemID
                    and method = 'SWW_WI_SELECT'
                    and timestamp IN (
                        SELECT MAX( timestamp )
                               FROM SWWLOGHIST
                               WHERE wi_id = object-key-workitemID
                                and method = 'SWW_WI_SELECT'.
    IF sy-subrc <> 0.
       "There's no such user
    ENDIF.

  • Sbwp: limited number of dynamic columns

    Hi together,
    We use dynamic columns in sbwp.
    Unfortunatelythe number of dynamic columns is limited to six.
    Is there a chance to use more than six dynamic columns?
    Thanks for any help.

    No,
    You could use 1 column for more than 1 piece of data.
    What is the weird business requirement that they need more than 6 dynamic columns?

  • A question about the dynamic colonnes in Business Workfplace

    Dear experts,
    I have a question regarding as the dynamic colonnes in Busienss Workplace.
    Before, I thought that there were only 6 dynamic colonnes to add in the business workplace. But when I went to SPRO and tried to configure these dynamic colonnes. I found that it was configured by tasks. Does it mean that we could add at least 6 for each task?
    As I was not able to test it, does anyone know the result?

  • 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 !

  • 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.
