ERM Role Methodology Process - Steps

Hello Gurus,
I am on SP17 and have uploaded relevant init files. Have also performed background job sync.
When I create a role in Role Definition stage and save it, the role does not pass or promote to next step i.e. Role Authorization Stage. GRC saves the role properly.
I have not defined any condition groups or custom fields. It is just plain role definition.
Request your help on this.
Thanks,
SA

Hi,
Please, can you give more details for your configuration?
I´m thinking that you don´t have ERM Workflow in CUP for workflow approval criteria. Do you have workflow configuration for ERM in CUP?
Good luck!

ERM role methodology configuration

Hi
For some reason the stages in the role methodology process in the configuration tab are not in the same order as those showen in the create role screen in the role management tab.
Does anyone have an idea how it can be fixed?
Thank you for your help

Hi...
First Role definition -> Defining Authorization ->Deriving roles -> Performing risk analysis -> approval -> Generating role*
we can use the arrow buttons to move the step up or down.
For creating the methodology
Login to ERM -> Configuration -> Methodology -> Process -> Create

Import Roles methodology @ ERM

Hello all,
We are facing some concerns regarding import roles methodology and would like to consult we you.
The import roles methodology raised a concern since it is done partially by uploading data from an excel file (template by SAP).
Our customer wants reassurance that this is a safe process and to know about other customers experience and results (how many problems they encounter? How fast is the process? What issues occur while uploading the roles to ERM? Related information etc.
Could you advice?
Thanks in advance
Rothem

Hello Rothem,
1. Our customer wants reassurance that this is a safe process and to know about other customers experience and results (how many problems they encounter?
The process is completely safe and even if you miss out on some of the role updates, you can still do specifically the ones you missed.
2. How fast is the process?
This is not generally a very time consuming tasks and provided your machine configuration is as per standards, this would not really be an area for concern at all. I mean, to my knowledge and experience I have not cme accross a situation where it took a lot of time and became a thing to worry about.
3. What issues occur while uploading the roles to ERM? Related information etc.
These I guess have already been mentioned by people in the above posts and are mostly of the similar nature, just as they are mentioning. Better to try first with a few of the Roles and then if it happens smoothly, you can upload the rest all in one go.

Hersh.

2 Logical Components for 1 Business Process Step

Hello All,
I'm looking for a way to assign in SolMan --> transaction Solar01 - Tab Structure - Business Process Step, 2 logical components for 1 business step. When creating the business step I have to assign 1 specific logical component to this step. Once I have done this I can only select the chosen logical component ffor SAP Transactions, configuration object etc.. As my business step is running on 2 different systems I need to find a way to link transactions etc. in the step to the different systems. Is there any way to change this for the Level 3 elements, like it is for level 2 (business processes) where I can choose in the different tabs between all the logical components?
Thanks in advance

I've seen people use some absolute craziness to get more than three levels. The most extreme being using multiple projects at the highest level (i.e. a project for PTP Accounts Payable). Don't go there.
I personally like to have 1 transaction per process step. Don't use the transaction tab as another process level, use it to better describe the process step (like all the other tabs are uses). It results in a better understanding of the system as you go forward. To do that I make teams break up things they think are one step (this can take some arm twisting, so hit the gym and maybe take a few judo classes).
This allows you to use SolMan in more powerful ways. For instance, if you attach development objects to a step with 5 transactions, you cannot tell which transaction is modified by the development object. However, one transaction per node provides you this link. There are other examples, but basically the "where used" button becomes very useful when you have 1 transaction per node.
Maybe you could provide a specific example of your process and we can think of a better way to collapse it.
Such as:
- PTP Non-Merchandise Purchasing
-- Expense Purchasing
--- Create Purchase Requisition
--- Create Purchase Order (Assign Vendor & Price)
--- Send to Vendor
--- Post Goods Receipt
--- Perform LIV
--- Process Payment
Some companies have 6 level processes already defined in models and putting it into SolMan can be a pain for sure. Your naming convention is usually the best route.

Jason
The system role and template work around doesn't apply to your situation.

Use of Execution Type in Workflow process step.

Hi Kiran,
The Execution Type is relevant for the process step of the workflow.
MDM workflow steps can be assigned either to one or more users or to one or more roles, as follows:
u2022 Users. User-based assignments allow you to explicitly specify which user or users should be responsible for performing the step.
u2022 Roles. Role-based assignments allow you to specify roles rather than users, with the actual users determined by MDM at runtime.
The Execution Type defines the relation between these assigned users/ roles if there are more than one:
1. All Concurrent- All assignees must perform the step. Each assignee can do so at the same time.
2. All Sequential Random- All assignees must perform the step. Each assignee can do so one at a time in any order.
3. All Sequential Ordered- All assignees must perform the step. Each assignee can do so one at a time in the order listed in the step.
1. Any Single- Any single assignee can perform the step. The step can be pushed to or pulled by any assignee.
You can also find this documented in the Data Manager Reference Guide under MDM Workflows-> Execution Type (page 292)
Regards,
Hedda Cohen.

_Thanks Hedda_

Multiple user in a parallel dynamic process step?

Hi,
anyone an idea how to address an process step in an parallel dynamic block simultaneously to multiple users?
I already tried the Assign Users to Process Role-Callable Object. Unfortunately each added user to one step in the parallel dynamic block was added to the same step in each parallel thread.
Any suggestions how to solve this problem in a other way?
Thanks and best regards
Robert

Executing these tasks (reading from instrument AND prompting user for inputs) in parallel loops can solve your problem instantly, if you can share the code, one can pin point what & where exactly changes are required or parallel loop can be included (along with any other changes which might be required).

Issue in implementing Dynamic participant chooser process Step

I am facing issue in implementing Participant chooser process Step.
I want to create dynamic Participant chooser process Step, I have implemented 'ParticipantStepChooser' class and overwrote 'getParticipant' method. But this process did not appear in Dynamic participant chooser dropdown in CQ5.6 environment.
I deployed same code in CQ5.5 and process appeared in Dynamic participant chooser dropdown.
This is the sample code which I have used:
@Component(immediate = true, metatype = true, label = "DMP Config Service123")
@Service
@Properties({
        @Property(name = Constants.SERVICE_DESCRIPTION, value = "A sample implementation of a dynamic participant chooser.", propertyPrivate=true),
        @Property(name = Constants.SERVICE_VENDOR, value = "Adobe", propertyPrivate=true),
        @Property(name = ParticipantStepChooser.SERVICE_PROPERTY_LABEL, value = "******** Hello ********", propertyPrivate=true),
        @Property(name = "immediate" , value = "true", propertyPrivate=true)
public class MyDynamicParticipant implements ParticipantStepChooser {
    private static final String TYPE_JCR_PATH = "JCR_PATH";
    @Activate
void activate(ComponentContext context) {
LoggerUtil.infoLog(this.getClass(), " ");
    public String getParticipant(WorkItem workItem, WorkflowSession workflowSession, MetaDataMap args) throws WorkflowException {
LoggerUtil.infoLog(this.getClass(), "inside getParticipant method{} ");
        WorkflowData workflowData = workItem.getWorkflowData();
        if (workflowData.getPayloadType().equals(TYPE_JCR_PATH)) {
String path = workflowData.getPayload().toString();
String pathFromArgument = args.get("PROCESS_ARGS", String.class);
if (pathFromArgument != null && path.startsWith(pathFromArgument)) {
return "admin";
        return "administrators";

Make sure to change your imports in 5.6 to use granite api. Please change from [1] to [2].

How can you tell if a process step is already being processed?

Further to my last note regarding assigned a process step to multiple users, how can you determine if the step is currently being processed by another user? When opening a task which has already been opened by another user, the message "The following action has been opened by another 1 user(s)...."
I would like to prevent the second user from making any changes to the object if it's already been opened by another user, hence this request.
Thx!

How to get the assignees for a specific role in process in BPM 11g

Hi, Gurus,
I am using BPM 11g. I am trying to retrieve all the assignees for a a specific role in process. It will be a parameter for a business rule to do further routing rule. But it seems there is no way to get the information. I found that there are Identity Service Functions in Human Task Assignment. But Identity Service Functions are not listed in Business Rule Activity, neither listed in other activities except Human Task Assignment. I cannot get the assignees in my process.
Is there any way to get all the assignees for a role? I also tried to retrieve the assignees out engine with Worklist API, but it cannot get either. Actually we can get all the assignees information in automatic activity in OBPM 10g. Maybe I am still not familiar with 11g. Any advice is appreciated.
FYI:
My scenario:
Suppose we have a role named ApprovalTeam. In this role, there will be several different department manager (BPM User) added in the role through Workspace. At run time, a request (With department info) with go through the approval by ApprovalTeam. A Business Rule Activity with decide which department manager will approve this request. Different department request will be dispatched dedicate managers, not all the managers in the role. I have an external JavaBean to get the department information from LDAP. To do the routing, I also need know all the department managers (BPM User) in the ApprovalTeam role. Then I can compare which department manager is matched with the request and assign the task to him.
Thanks a lot,
James

How to provide transition comment while completing a process step

Out of the box, we can indicate transition comment for participant steps when completing a inbox item, which is then displayed as a subheading of a inbox item for next step - which is really helpful.
but, how can i provide a transition comment, when completing a process step.
I see the complete method, but dont see where i can provide transition comment.
complete(WorkItem item, Route route)
Environment CQ 5.5

Its workitem metadata which holds the comments info. Can you try this if it works
workitem.getWorkflowData().getMetaData(); which will return the dictionary object and set "comment" in this object.

How to use a servlet in a Workflow process step.

Hi
I need am upgrading existing code from cq 5.4 to CQ 5.5.
The exsiting code uses a servlet with an injected @MailService reference to send emails. It is currently used as a process step service.
However, with CQ 5.5 I see that I need to implement the WorkFlowProcess interface, to see this class listed as in the Process step drop down list.
The issue I have is if I keep the class as a Servlet extension , it does not show up in the drop down list of the process step.
Is there a way to update the code to list this servlet as a process step?
Or is there a way to inject the MailService reference into a class which only implements the "WorkflowProcess" interface and is not a servlet ?
advice appreciated.
thanks
Ven

The implementation of WorkflowProcess is to be deployed as an OSGi service, so you can @Reference the MailService in that class.

Handling unit process step by step

Dear All,
We intend to use handling unit functionality.
Our FG let's say FG001 gets packed in container.
I have mapped this as following.
I have created 'Container' as code with material type VERP- Packaging Material. Maintained the required data in Sales org. tab page.
I have created packing instruction in POP1 with container as packing material & FG001 as material.
I have maintained the determination record in POF1 (Frankly I didn't understand the relevance of this step, but did cos has been suggested in several threads.)
Now I have to perform the packing process of FG001 in HU02.
But system is throwing me an error as 'No packing instruction could be found for material FG001', message no. VHUPD002.
I have stuck up there. Kind request you to help me in this, regarding any configuration & processing step, if I am missing.
Also I am few questions to get clear.
1. How to maintain the batch no. of packing material 'Container' while creating/ generating HU as my packing material is batch managed, and need to have information in which HU the batch of packing material is utilized.
2. What happens to the stock statement (MMBE)of both the materials i.e. FG001 & Container when those are get packed i.e. HU created/ generated.
Please respond urgently.
Timely answers will be rewarded.
Mimiri

VS,
Thanks once again.
You got it right. I was confused as I was unable to understand why packing material is not moving along with the FG material.
Moreover our packing material is container. Once it is packed container moves from plant to plant & then to final destination.
As we have to track the movement of the container, it was necessary for us to the have stock statement.
I am still surprised why standard SAP doesn't support the movement of the packing material along with the contents i.e. FG?
Now to tackle this, we have thought of a way out.
We have maintained two material codes for container. one is dummy container and second is main container for which we have to track the goods movement. Both will be having same material type as VERP but only difference is later won't be having packing material type in sales view. So it will act as normal material.
While creating HU with HU02, both the materials with quantities will be entered in pack material section. Dummy packing material serve as packing material. Here my question is what is HU creation & HU generation? Because system is throwing me an error while generation as 'no packing instruction are there for the material although I have defined determination source in POF1 but when I save the HU with out generating it, system doesn't throw this error
The HU is getting created but I am unable to enter that HU number in VL01N while creating the delivery. How to do that?

Post Processing Steps after Support Package Stack Application

I'm curious if anyone has any guidelines for post processing steps (or pre-processing) when applying Support Package Stacks to their Development Infrastructure (Developmend Workplace and the Central NWDI Server). We have just upgraded a couple of developers local engines and developer studio to SP stack 19 from SP stack 14 and are experiencing some problems. We also applied the J2EE stack and appropriate SCA files to the NWDI server.
After the support packs it looks like our DTR files are gone (when reimporting configuration via Developer Studio the SC's are there but there are no DC's inside of them). Additionally, it looks like we have to manually reimport the newest versions of SAP_BUILDT, SAP_JTECHS, and SAP-JEE. Another thing is that old Local Web Dynpro DC's are now complaining about class path problems and different versions of files. We followed the documentation for applying SP19 exactly as the documentation says for a Java Development Usage type. Is there a checklist or something that anyone has for steps to perform after the application of the support packs?

I think I'm missing something. Now I see the code and DC's inside the DTR. However, when I try to import into NWDS no DC's come in (the software components exist, but no DC's in them). Additionally, the CBS web ui reports that my software components do not contain any DC's even though I see them in the DTR. What things can I look at to determine what I'm missing here?
Thought I'd add some more info..after applying the support packs, we imported the new SAPBUILD, SAP_JTECH, and SAP_jee SCA'S into our track as we required some functionality from the newer build SCA. We also reimported our old archives back into the system by manually checking them in assuming this would fix the problem with us not seeing the source in the NWDS or the DTR. After the import, the CBS no longer sees our custom DC's, but the DTR does (both in active and inactive ws). When importing the dev configuration into the NWDS our custom DC's no longer appear, but SAP's standard SCA's do.
