Email Expressions are Blank in Sub-workflow Created for MDG

Hello Workflow Experts,
I just posted a question in the Master Data Governance discussion area but it is more workflow related than MDG so posting the link here in hopes that someone can help me out.
In summary, I am trying to create a sub-workflow thats sends an email to the creator of a MDG change request, once the change request is approved.
I am having difficulties in two areas. I am new to SWDD workflows so any advice is greatly appreciated.
Two issues:
The expressions I am using to display the Change Request Number and the Change Request Description are not returning values to my email – they are blank.
I want to send the email to the person that created the MDG Change Request but I can’t figure out how to determine the creator (i.e., CR Requestor) of the MDG Change Request and ultimately, their email address. Right now I am testing using my own email address in the workflow Send Mail step.
Here is the full detail of my question, with lots of screen shots, over in the MDG discussion group: http://scn.sap.com/thread/3513244
Sincere thanks,
Rob Scofield

Hi Rob
Yes, you can use CR_CREATOR_NAME...as shown in the screen shot, however make sure it is prefixed by 'US' (that is user) else mail step will go in error:
Also ensure that user has SU01 setup correctly:
Then the system will send the mail :
And will show in SOST (if SO16 settings are done in the system)
I would suggest:
1) Creat a WF container element, say CR_CREATOR_LEADING_US, of type SWHACTOR (which is of type OTYPE+OBJID)
2) Assign CR_CREATOR_NAME to CR_CREATOR_LEADING_US-OBJID
3) Assign 'US' to CR_CREATOR_LEADING_US-OTYPE
4) Use CR_CREATOR_LEADING_US in the mail step as shown above

No Workflow created for BPM

Dear Experts,
I'm trying to do a N:1 mapping using BPM. i have two different files coming in and i have to merge into one. i used multimapping and designed the Integration process based on the example given in SAP BASIS http://sap.com/xi/XI/System/Patterns for collection with multiple interfaces.
The files are read in properly and i get the checkered flag for both the files but the PE shows a green flag and when i go check the queue, it shows the error SYSFAIL. Also there is no workflow created for the process. i checked SXI_CACHE too and the return code is 0.
What could be the problem?
Thanks and regards,
Merrilly

Did F7, there were no semanctic errors. I think there is something amiss in the correlation. It's not being able to put the second message in the bpm instance created by the first message. Its waiting for the second message which never gets into the actual bmp instance. it creates another one.
What should i actually give for the correaltion?
Thanks and regards,
Merrilly

Are wiki's/calendars automatically created for groups?

All of my users are Active Directory users imported into OD. I have e-mail set up for all users and it works fine thru POP3 and thru webmail. I also set up all of these users into groups. The groups work fine for e-mail distribution, but I can't log into any of those group pages. The password box just shakes and asks again. I double checked in server admin and I noticed no calendars had been created for any of the groups. Do those only get created when a member adds something, or are my people unable to log in because the services did not get created properly? I also made sure that every group has the right to create calendars in Server admin.
Thanks for any help anyone can provide,
Chris

Acrobat Pro 7.0 form creation, email responses are blank

I created a fill in form for email submission in Adobe Designer 7.0. Some of the responses are coming back blank and some are coming back with the data. What is the difference and how can I quickly correct this?
Wendy Sheasley

You should really ask in the Designer forum since that is the product you used to create the form (even if you did not realize it). In that sense I agree with Michael. However, just have the folks send back the form data, not the entire form. This saves a lot on the size of the e-mail and also means you have no limits since it does not have to be saved in the PDF. The data can then be imported into the FORM.
It is typical for folks to start by trying to submit by e-mail. That is dangerous since it depends on the client machine over which you typically have no control. If possible, it is always best to try to submit to a web script.

Using an Email Alias in a SharePoint 2013 Workflow created in Designer

Hello,
I would like to use an email alias for a workflow that was created in Designer, I don't want the workflow email address to look like it was sent from the system or myself I'd like to use an email address our generic email address that our department uses.
I cannot see a way to do this. All the email address we are trying to use are in our AD and are active. Here is an example of what I am trying to do...
We’re going to be using a few forms I’ve created on SharePoint so that colleagues may submit requests for additional resources for virtual environments. In order for us to track the requests I’d like them to be dumped into the LT-Infrastructure
board inside of ConnectWise, and the best method to do that would be via email. Is it possible to have the email come out on a different address? (ex.
[email protected]) After configuring the workflow and sending out a test I realized that its coming from
[email protected](which I assume replied to you).
Thank you in advance for your help.

Incoming email message area blank

On my leopard machine I have one person who sends me email regularly and the message area of the email is blank even tho I know she has sent a message. If I forward that email to myself and download it on my laptop with OSX 10.4.11, the message shows up in the email just fine. She has sent me messages at all of my addresses with the same result. They are all blank on the Leopard machine and show up on the tiger machine. She has changed her font , it's size and it's color and we still have the same result. She is sending from a pc on an AOL account. However, I have other people who send me email from AOL accounts on pc's and I can see them with now problem.
Does anyone have any idea what might be preventing her messages from showing up on Leopard mail?
Thanks

Thank you for your suggestion. The page on blank email was informative but unfortunately doesn't apply in my case. The email I get from just one person that is blank on my Mac running Leopard is NOT blank when viewed on my mac running Tiger. The text is in the message but is not visible on the Leopard mail program.
But I do appreciate your link.

Suddenly my email folders are no longer sub folders under my email account

Everything was as usual this morning and now all of a sudden my email folders no longer show as sub folders under my email account. The InBox is in the middle of the other folders and I can NOT find the main account for which all of my folders were listed under.
I really don't know how else to explain this and just hope someone can give me some help.
Thanks.

If I had just waited for your response I could have saved myself a lot of stress and work.
What you suggested is exactly what I finally found out. I have NO idea how I managed to change that option.
Thanks.

The page layouts for a book created in iPhoto are blank. How do I get the original book back?

I have a MacBook Pro, Mac OS X, version 10.7.5, Memory 4GB 1067 MHz DDR3, Processor 2.53GHz, Intel Core 15. iPhoto '11 version 9.4.3.
I created an iPhoto book using iPhoto '9 in 2010. I bought the book and now want to buy another book. When I went to iPhoto, I discovered that all of the pages are blank. In the thumbnail for photos in project, the photos that I used are checked. Now I see that other photos for different books also show in the "photos in project" panel. Should I delete these foreign photos? How do I get the original book pages/layout back? Help! Patnd

Do you have a back up?
If not you're into using file recovery software like File Salvage - you can download a free trial and it will scan the disk for you and tell you with might be recoverable. Actual recovery will require that you purchase the app. There may be many files with the same or similar names. Always recover the largest file size.
There are other such apps. Search on Macupdate or the App Store

How to go back to previous step in a sub workflow?

We are calling a sub workflow upon approval action from a main workflow. In the child workflow we have 9 steps. If at any step in the child workflow (other than first) user does reject action, the workflow control should go back to previous step in the child workflow itself.
We added a custom action in the exit events of all the child workflow steps. Following is the logic of exit event of Step4 of child workflow. Similar logic is there for all steps in the child workflow.
<$if wfAction and wfAction like "REJECT"$>
     <$wfSet("wfJumpTargetStep", "Step3@childWF")$>
     <$wfSet("wfJumpEntryNotifyOff", "0")$>
<$endif$>
With this code when the user is doing reject action from child workflow, it is taking us back to the main workflow and not to the previous step of child workflow.
Is this approach correct?
-Pratap

1. The 3 events are Entry, Update, and Exit.
2. Rejects happen in the Update area but you can not reliably react to it there because upon reject it immediately leaves (not going through the exit event).
3. The rejected content goes backwards in the Workflow step by step (even going back to the main workflow from a sub workflow) until it finds a Step that has valid Editors (not just reviewers).
4. If it does not find an Editor step it goes all the way back to the automatic Contribution step at the beginning of the Workflow and sits there in a kind of no mans land until the contributor (or an admin) goes and approves it again.
5. To check if something has been rejected the Entry Event of an editor Step BEFORE the step where it is rejected needs to have code to check for the Reject status.
The sub workflow should be able to capture the Reject as you desire. Are all of the steps in the child workflow (sub workflow) Review only steps? Or maybe the people in the steps do not have RW access to the document? This is what I would predict with your described symptoms.

When using Yahoo for email, the symbols for spellcheck, edit and fontsize are blank. If I hold the arrow over the space, it will show me what it is. This only happens with Mozilla, but works fine with Att.

Where the B and i and other things are showing here are blank when
I bring up Yahoo mail.

If you think getting your web pages to appear OK in all the major browsers is tricky then dealing with email clients is way worse. There are so many of them.
If you want to bulk email yourself, there are apps for it and their templates will work in most cases...
http://www.iwebformusicians.com/Website-Email-Marketing/EBlast.html
This one will create the form, database and send out the emails...

The alternative is to use a marketing service if your business can justify the cost. Their templates are tested in all the common email clients...

Forms created in Adobe LiveCycle are blank when viewed on a BlackBerry or previewed in Google Docs

Hello All.
I have searched the forums and all over the internet and have yet to find a solution.
A customer is using Adobe LiveCycle Designer 8.1 to create a custom PDF form and email it to a distribution of users.
When they open the file from their mail client it opens using Adobe Reader and all of the information submitted in the form is viewable.
If the user opens the same file on their BlackBerry or views the file in google docs the data entered in the form is missing ie: the form is blank.
Is there a special way that the files need to be created in order to be viewable using other PDF distillers?
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

There are two issues: Are the press releases being created in Reader or Acrobat? If in Reader was the extended features enabled in Reader?
If they were created in Reader with an enabled pdf file or Acrobat, then the problem is with the software on those devices and you would have to ask Apple or RIM, it is their issue.

TS2621 Have email account on iPad, now email on my computer are blank when I open them. What have I done

Inset up iPad email for my AT&T account. Now when I open email on computer, the emails I open are blank. What have I done? They are all fine on iPad. Also, new emails are only going to iPad. Thank you!

Hi caesarome I have tried to set it up again by choosing Yahoo from the list of providers - but that just took me into a 'set up Yahoo email' page (sign in or create account) . I couldn't use my sky email address or password in doing that. I now have a new yahoo email account [email protected] that I don't want. On the ipad mail it just shows an empty inbox for my Yahoo email (although my sky email address is still there under settings>mail) - no sent, trash, drafts etc. I have also followed other advice that sets up the email again using 'other' provider but changes the host names under incoming and outgoing mail server to apple.imap.mail.yahoo.com and apple.smtp.mail.yahoo.com That hasn't worked either. The iphone (with exactly the same settings that I had on the ipad before messing around) works fine!

All text in all email are blank, can't view attachments.

After last osx update 10.5.6 I noticed a problem with my email. I have 2 email accounts in mail 3.5 The 1st works fine, the 2nd account lost all text in all email in in-box. Also all attachments are blank. I've tried forwarding the email to another account and also printing email but all the text looks as if it has been deleted. I've tried the font color and encoding but no luck. What would cause 20 emails to delete all the message text and blank out the attachments in only one email account?

update - I did a rebuild mailbox and all email in that problem account diapered. I can only guess that the email got corrupted and the rebuild purge the problem records. They are not in the delete folder either. What would cause one email box to become corrupt?
