Dynamic Workflow - Solution Starter

Hello all,
I am currently working with the Workflow Solution Starter. It is really helpful and meets majority of our client's requirements, but there is another small request which I am finding difficult to modify in the current DM Workflow code...
It is the 'Rejected' outcome. If a review stage has been rejected, the client wants to show that as a 'Not Approved' Stage...similar to the Branching Workflow out of the box. I was thinking if there is anyway we can just add a 'Not Approved Stage' in the
Dynamic Workflow code. I tried doing that, but it doesn't seem to move to the 'Not Approved' Stage. This can be a single 'Not Approved' stage for all the checkpoints of the project workflow and can sit either right at the end or at the very beginning so
Stage Order is not an issue, but it may be an issue for the code during workflow processing.
Is there anyone out there that has been able to achieve this?
Thank you very much in advance.
Regards,
SJ

Do you have solution starter with you for projectserver 2010, if yes can you share the same at [email protected]

Dynamic Recovery Solutions and odd DOFD

So I have a new collection on EQ Dynamic Recovery Solutions, and the OC is Checksmart. It was reported 7/2015 with a DOFD of 10/2014. Roughly 7 to 10 years ago, I was stuck in the payday advance loop and routinely got advances from Checksmart. So I was a customer at one point. I got my last advance probably over 7 years ago, and can't recall if I ever paid it back or not. There's a good chance that I didn't, since at the time I was going thru a foreclosure and moved across the country. My question is .. how can they have a DOFD of 10/2014 when I would have defaulted no later than 2008? I started a dispute on EQ's website immediately after learning of this .. should I do anything else?

When I look at EQ's online dispute tool, I see the following: Agency Address:135 Interstate Blvd Unit 6

Dynamic Workflow Trigger

hi,
how can i trigger Dynamic Workflows ?
i have 3 WF's each attached to 3 different milestones.
now when each milestone reaches a particular UserStatus, it triggers respective WF's.
but now in my case, in SWE2 i have activated all 3 WF's eventlinkage,
but even if just milestone 1 reaches that particular Userstatus i want just WF1 to trigger, in my case its triggering all 3,
how do i handle this. ?
Aditya

goto se37 and create a function with the same interface of function reported in the F1 help of the field Check Function Module .
Create a custom function for each of your WFs. When the event is raised, each WF will starts but, before the execution, the system will check each of your function.
The functions tied to the 2 WF that don't have to start will raise an exception (you can call your exception as you wish, there's no rule about the name), the third one will end without problem and your WF will start... you can write your code as you prefer, you can include also the function you wrote about, I don't know how it works but I don't thinlk you can use it as check function so as it is.

SharePoint Online workflow not starting

Hi All,
I am an administrator for a company and I have been asked to create a workflow for them.
I created 2 workflows using SharePoint designer 2013. The 2010 workflow works as expected.
I created the 2013 workflow because I can use loops. However the 2013 workflow doesn't automatically start when an item is created. but works if I start it manually. I have checked and made sure that the check box is ticked for the workflow to start automatically.
The workflows go like this.
Step: Query Type
If Current Item:Query_Type equals Phone
  Set Status to Opportunity
Else
If Current Item:Query_Type equals Email
  Email Current Item:Sales_Rep2
  Pause for 0 days, 0 hours, 15 minutes
  If Current Item:Follow_Up equals No
   Email Current Item:Sales_Rep2
Step: Rental or Not
If Current Item:Rental equals Yes
  Email Current Item:Sales_Rep2
  Pause for 0 days, 1 hours, 0 minutes
  If Current Item:Quote_Sent equals No
   Email Current Item:Sales_Rep2
  Else
  If Current Item:Rental equals No
   Email Current Item:Sales_Rep2
   Pause until Current Item:Date to Send Quote
   Email Current Item:Sales_Rep2
And the 2013 one goes like this
Stage:Follow Up
Loop: Email to manager
  The contents of this loop will run repeatedly while: Current Item:Follow_Up equals No
   Pause for 0 days, 1 hours, 0 minutes
   If Current Item:Follow_Up equals No
    Email Current Item:Manager
If Current Item:Follow_Up equals Yes
  Set Status to Opportunity
Transition to stage
Go to Rental or Not
Stage:Rental or Not
Loop: Escalation
  The contents of this loop will run repeatedly while: Current Item:Quote_Sent equals No
   Pause for 2 days, 0 hours, 0 minutes
   If Current Item:Quote_Sent equals No
    Email Current Item:Manager
Loop: Escalation
  The contents of this loop will run repeatedly while: Current Item:Quote_Sent equals No
   Pause for 7 days, 0 hours, 0 minutes
   If Current Item:Quote_Sent equals No
   and Current Item:Date to Send Quote is greater than Current Item:Date to Send Quote
    Email Current Item:Manager
Transition to stage
Go to End of Workflow
If this makes sense? If not can anybody give me advice on how to get this working the way it is expected to work?

Hi,
From your description, After you modified the workflow and added "App Step" to it and "Pause" actions apart from few other modifications, you got the issue that
SharePoint 2013 Workflow not starting when a new item is crated.
Whether you got the issue Before you modified the workflow.
I have done a test in my SharePoint 2013 and it works fine.
I suggest you update SharePoint to the latest CU.
Here is an blog similar with your issue, you can use as a reference:

Document Library - Workflow not starting on copied Word Document

HELLO EVERYBODY!
Right, got a weird issue on a Document Library, where if the Document Library already contains a Word Document with a Title of 'Document 1' and i download the document, make a change and re-upload it. The document uploads as a new separate file but it retains
the same 'Document 1' title.
My problem is that for some reason SharePoint isn't seeing this newly uploaded document and therefore it is not running the workflow on it?
This really confuses me, as it will work with new documents, but it will not work if you download a Word document, change it and re-upload the document as a new version, the workflow will not start.
Any ideas are welcome.
Thanks,
Tucker

Hi Tucker,
According to your description, my understanding is that the workflow which was set to start when an item is created cannot start when uploading a copy of a document existing in the library.
I tested the same scenario per your post, and the workflow can start automatically.
As the workflow can start automatically when uploading a new document, it is not the issue with the workflow.
I recommend to verify the things below:
Did you upload the copy with a new name as a separate file or as a new version to the existing document to the library?
Test with a new library and a new document to narrow the issue scope.
Best regards.
Thanks

Workflow not starting and RFC status is 'User Switch Is Not Possible'

Hi All,
I am using ABAP classes to raise an event that triggers the workflow.
When I am executing the workflow from SWUS or raising event from SWUE or SE24, the workflow is starting fine.
But when I am raising the event from a Webdynpro application, the same event is raised, but the workflow is not getting triggerred.
I could see a record in SWEL, but the workitem is not created.
In SWEL, it is showing the RFC status as 'User Switch Is Not Possible'.
When I go to SM58, I am able to re-execute the failed transaction and this time the workflow is getting triggered.
The same workflow is working fine in D env. but not in T env.
The event linkages are all same and I also used the COMMIT WORK statement after raising the event.
Another problem is the RFC status is sometimes set to SYSFAIL and sometimes as 'System overloaded, repeat immediately by batch' other than 'User Switch Is Not Possible'.
Please help.
Thanks,
Cay.

Hi,
call function module AUTHORITY_CHECK_RFC explicitly before a remote call to be able to treat a possible exception. If the authorization exists, the function module does not return an explicit result but, like all successfully executed function modules, sets sy-subrc to 0. If sy-subrc is not equal to zero then it could be the problem with the user authorization.
I also think it could alos possible because of your Host name check whether any changes are done to host name.

Creating dynamic workflow usin ALBPM

Does ALBPM provides functionality such as creating dynamic workflow. That is workflow are created by users (similar to windows workflow foundation)

You can do this using a "controller" process design pattern. Controller in this context is just an automatic activity to put in your process to cause work item instances to flow to different activities in the process. The benefit to having this activity is that it allows the adhoc or user designed behavior you're looking for. Once an instance reaches the Controller automatic activity, the logic inside this activity would determine where it needs to go next via a conditional transition coming out of the Controller. Once done, the instance returns to the contoller and goes where the original user designated it should go.
The set up for this is typically an array that the first user defines. Each item in the array contains the role and the activity in the role that it should go to next. The sequence of items in the array defines where it goes next as each item in the array is popped off the stack. Consider using a parametric role so you do not clutter up the process with 100 different roles. You'd instead just define the parameter of the role you'd like it to flow to next.
The controller automatic activtiy would just be in an Automatic Handler role.

Triggering of workflow by start transaction

hi all,
how can i trigger my workflow by start transaction method??
advance thanks
regards
SANA

<u><b>Transactions for Workflow Start</b></u> :
Use
The workflow system can generate a form transaction for workflows that have a structure as an import parameter. Data can be entered in the fields of the structure with the form transaction and the workflow is then started.
You can edit this transaction at a later date using the ABAP Workbench, for example to change the names of input fields or adapt the layout.
If you select a workflow in manual workflow start for which a form transaction is defined, this form transaction is executed. The workflow system responds in the same way if a start transaction had been created for the workflow in an earlier release. For more information, see Starting Workflows Manually.
Features
The workflow system generates a form transaction for a workflow with a structure as an import parameter to start this workflow. The input fields are derived from the fields of the import structure of the workflow container.
The workflow system generates the name of the transaction automatically from the ID of the workflow. The workflow system also generates the name of the function group automatically if you do not specify anything on the Function group tab page.
Activities
You generate a form transaction in the basic data of the workflow in the Workflow Builder. To do this, select on the Start forms tab page in the version-dependent basic data. You can also process existing start forms from here. For more information, see Version-Dependent Basic Data of a Workflow.
If a start transaction was created for the workflow in an earlier release, you can also edit this in the version dependent basic data on the Start form tab page.
You can use the Screen Painter functions to revise the transaction generated. For more information, see Screen Painter.
If you want to change the user interface status of the transaction generated, you must define a separate user interface status. You can use the user interface status DYNPRO as a model.
If useful.......reward points...

Workflow 2013 start another workflow 2013

In an existing workflow 2013, I need to lower the permission levels of a user so that they can not modify a custom listed after it as been submitted. Thus I am thinking of having he first workflow 2013 start another workflow 2013 before the permission level
of the custom list item is lower.
Thus can you tell me how to do the following:
1. Have a workflow 2013 start another workflow 2013.
2. After the first workflow 2013 is started, have the first workflow not expect the 2nd workflow to run any results. The first workflow will basically end right after it lower the permission levels of the user that submitted the custom list to workflow 2013.

N-Step Dynamic Workflow in SAP E-Sourcing _CLM2.0 with Adhoc apprver Featre

Hi All,
We are in process of implemeting SAP CLM 2.0 Application to one of our key client. one of the key Requirements is to implement n-step workflow approval based on the HR Based org structure. What the specific client requirement are as below ...
a)Dynamic N Level organizational hierarchy based approval for a contract document. Approval to be routed to a business requestoru2019s organization hierarchy depending on the value of contract
b)Approver substitution u2013 Provide functionality of substitution. If a person has to substitute a person for a period of time, workflow item to be routed to substituted user
c)Forward a workflow item u2013 If a particular workflow item is sitting in a personu2019s for a considerable time, an administrator to have the ability to push the workflow item to another alternate approver
d)Exception management u2013 Trigger email notifications to an approveru2019s manager if the workflow item is pending for a predefined period without action. If no action even after reminder for additional period of time, trigger another email to manageru2019s manager
e)Adding Adhoc Approval at any stage during the workflow approval stage ( For eg: - particularly in additional an additional approver in between)
Our Understanding u2013 None of these functionality is available as standard functionality within SAP CLM application. Correction needed if this understanding itself is incorrect (Low probability). Also, It would be great if anybody can suggest an alternative approach to handle this.
Alternate Options u2013 (our thought )
Any options that can be explored. For instance......
a)Explore development in CLM itself to achieve the functionality. If so what are the limitations that would still remain. For example CLM supports only fixed levels in the approval, cannot handle dynamic N levels with adhoc approver addition
b)Explore if SRM framework can be used to integrate the system for n-step workflow requirement
c)Can we utilize SAP UWL to integrate CLM system for this functionality
d)Any Other alternate options if similar requirements were handled in other projects
Your expert opinion & input required to meet this complex requirement.
Thanks & Best Rgds/

Hi Pawan,
SAP has not delivered any standard workflows in CLM. We have to develop custom
Now let me answer your queries:
a)Dynamic N Level organizational hierarchy based approval for a contract document. Approval to be routed to a business requestoru2019s organization hierarchy depending on the value of contract
          There is no Org structure/hierarchy in CLM. I think you mean the structure/hierarchy will be in SRM/ECC.
          But there is no std interface available to get this into CLM. So you have to first develop an interface to get the hierarchy.
          Dynamic N Level workflows are very much possible in CLM
b)Approver substitution u2013 Provide functionality of substitution. If a person has to substitute a person for a period of time, workflow item to be routed to substituted user
c)Forward a workflow item u2013 If a particular workflow item is sitting in a personu2019s for a considerable time, an administrator to have the ability to push the workflow item to another alternate approver
d)Exception management u2013 Trigger email notifications to an approveru2019s manager if the workflow item is pending for a predefined period without action. If no action even after reminder for additional period of time, trigger another email to manageru2019s manager
e)Adding Adhoc Approval at any stage during the workflow approval stage ( For eg: - particularly in additional an additional approver in between)
                        All this is very much possible but will require lot of custom solutions and efforts
