Execute workitem link

In HCm forms when it goes for first level approval..
There is a link 'Execute Workitem' in the inbox of the approver...
In the some application, when we click on this link it is taking to the portal as the task is the Webdynpro Java application task. Whereas, when using ABAP webdynpro application task, it is taking to R/3 - which means that the user cannot access this link without R/3 access. The users are given only portal access, they don't have access to backend R/3.
The requirement is that the link has to take the user to portal directly instead of R/3 - i.e it should ask only for the portal id and password.
Since it was working fine with some application, I changed the task to Java webdynpro task, but I think the Java Webdynpro application is not deployed in the server.
Please can anybody suggest.
Thanks in advance

Hi,
The parameters are configured in SWFVISU due to which it is openign custom screen correctly when the manager logs in normally to portal and access UWL.
The problem is only while using the "Execute Workitem" link.the problem is I am not aware of the parameters which leads to this link in external email.
There is an extended notification configuration in our system.Is this link coming due to this?
Kindly guide.
Thanks

Execute workitem outside the SAP Inbox.

Hi Friends,
Please answer my querries if you can -
When any work item comes to the SAP Inbox, usually the requirement revolves around 2 things -
(1) How to send notification of the Workitem to the agent once work item appears in his inbox.
But my question is can i send notification to external mail id like YAHOO, GMAIL,REDIFFMAIL etc. by maintaining the agent's mailid in SU01 and scheduling the RSWUWFML2 report ?
(2) How to execute the work item in outlook
We can send the sap link for the work item to the outlook and when the user clicks on the link it is directed to sap inbox and then he can take the action.
But My question is How the agent can take decision in the oulook itself ? I mean just like sap inbox he can approve and reject in outlook itself. The agent doesnot have to go to the SAP business workplace for this purpose.
(3) How the point2 functionality can be achieved for external mail (GMAIL, YAHOO etc.) as well
Regards,
Debi

Hi Rick,
Thanks a lot.
You mean to say -
(1) Just like RSWUWFML2 we can also send notification to outlook and any other email (like GMAIL etc.) throgh Extended notification. Right ?
(2) Outlook supports the button (approve/reject), so we can integrate that with the SAP Inbox using Duet (as suggested in my previous forum). That means, the agent will take an action from outlook itself and the same will be communicated to SAP. Right? If yes, then please mention the procedure how to integate the outlook with SAP.
(3) Since GMAIL etc. does not support this button(approve/reject), so we just cant do anything for the requirement -> Agent will take an action (approve / reject) in GMAIL and the same will be communicated to sap InBox.
My requirement is that my client wants to take action from external mail id. Is this possible ? If not then atleast can we do the same in outlook.

Debi

Workitem is using data from old executed workitem.

Hello.
I have a workflow which has a step that will open transaction code PA40 for the user to update an infotype. Some fields will be already defaulted to some values and all the user has to do is to check the values in the fields and click on save.
Lets say I am the user and I execute the workitem in my inbox. PA40 opens, I check the values in the fileds and click on save. The Infotype record is created and I hit F3 to exit out. Doing that the workflow ends and I return to my workflow inbox. I stay in the inbox. Next, a new workflow is started, but with slight different data for the fields in PA40. Refreshing my workflow inbox, I can see the new workitem. When I execute the workitem, transaction PA40 opens, but the values in the fields are the same as the vaues in the previous workitem that I executed, istead of the new values the new workflow was started with. It seems like the values are buffered, or the session that the was created to execute PA40 is still "hanging" with my inbox. Any ideas?
Thanks
Lande

Hi,
Values cannot be buffered if its the same workflow as it a whole new instance...
What is your method like, i mean is it some custom method, if yes are you using coding that is writing to containers...
What happens when you normally process the transaction using PA40 with both the cases 1 by one...
Normally it happens due to issues with Dynamic Action...

Problem in executing workitem

Hi,
I have a worktitem which is used to post a document.
Even after posting the document successfully the workitem is not disappearing from the users' inbox.
When the workitem is opened again it gives an error.
Though the workitem can be completed manually and is being done like that now, I am not able to find why is it happening so.
The following errors are generated.
1) Work item XXXX: Object XXXX
method SWW_WW_EXECUTE_S cannot be executed
2) Object does not exist
3) Problems occurred when generating a mail
4) Error '9' when calling service 'SO_OBJECT_SEND'
I am seeing these errors in the detailed technical workflow log.
Please help.
Thanks
Abhishek

Hi Aditya,
the workitem is remaining in "In process" state if we check in the workflow log and the document has been successfully posted.
I am not able to figure out why the workitem's state is not changing to completed.
Actually this task is in one of the 3 branches of a fork. 1st branch is completed and the second one is in "Ready" state. This task is in the 3rd branch.
2 out of 3 are necessary branches in the fork.
Can this be in any way the possible reason??
Abhishek

Executed Workitem in Inbox

Hi All,
Successfuly workitem executed,but again the same workitem text and its attachment keeping in the inbox with nill records.
And also the same nill record workitem keeping in all other user's inbox.
Same thing happening also in all other workflow workitems.
Hope you understood my issue
What could be the problem?
Thanks and Regards,
Prabhakar Dharmala

You are not giving a lot of information. I suggest you spend some more time trying to figure out either the cause, or some things you can tell us.
Sounds like a general task where the agent resolution fails (e.g. a role without the checkbox checked to raise an error when no agents are found).
I would start by checking who started the workflow, and how it was started. Then check a few other things before you come back here with more information if it is still a mystery.
<i>Message was edited by Kjetil Kilhavn:</i>
You are not even saying if it is a standard workflow or a customer solution, whether it is a BOR object type or class that has been used, or indeed whether that is a standard or customer-developed class or BOR object.
In short: you are not giving any information that is specific for your problem. You can't solve a problem without specific information. It's no different from when end-users say "SAP does not work".

Error when executing workitem in UWL.

Hi all,
we are getting a workitem in the inbox with text
"Error when generating idoc from MC doc " .
when I am trying to execute a workitem in UWL its giving error that "workitem is reserved for a different agent ".
Regards,
Naval Bhatt

hi.....
          it might be because someone might have designed a workflow in such a way and would have delegated there business object so that some application is trigerring his/her workflow which is producing such a message.
example:
              some one migght have created a workflow for purchase order change and would have delegated their business object. So whoever changes any purchase order then this workflow gets triggered........
solution:
              if you could find the business object related with this workitem then you can remove the delegation.

Execute view links

Dear All,
Good Evening,
My requirement is pass header level(first vo) inventory item id
to 2nd region
for this i create a view link based on these 2 view objects.
for this i wrote the code like this,
xxcrmForQuoteOrderItemsVOImpl vo = getxxcrmForQuoteOrderItemsVO1();
String wclause = "item_code='" + itemcode + "'";
vo.setWhereClause(wclause);
vo.executeQuery();
String inventoryitemid=vo.first().getAttribute("InventoryItemId").toString();
xxcrmForItemsStockDetailsVOImpl vo1 = getxxcrmForItemsStockDetailsVO1();
String wclause1 = "INVENTORY_ITEM_ID='" + inventoryitemid + "'";
vo1.setWhereClause(wclause1);
vo1.executeQuery();
Its working fine,
But my doubt is
instead of writing this code
how to pass the first view object attribute val to 2nd view object attribute.
please any one can help me

Hi,
If you use view link then there is no need to pass value to second VO it will be achieved through view link.
Even then if you want to pass then the joining attribute(po_header_id will be joining attribute in po_headers and lines) just include that in your where clause and pass the value to second vo and execute query on second vo.
Let me know if you want to know anything else.

Workflow: Execute WorkItem from Inbox

Dear experts
We upgraded CRM 4.0 to CRM 2007. We have workflows scenarios in our system. Workflows are received in our Outlook Inbox. From there, we have 3 options:
- Workflow Inbox
- Display Work Item
- Execute Work Item
The workitem should open a service process in CRM.
If we execute the workitem from the outlook inbox, it will open the service process but not using the standard WebUI screen, instead it will use the IC WebUI screen to open the service process.
If we execute the workitem from the worklist (in WebUI), it will open the service process using the standard WebUI screen.
What should we change in order to use the standard WebUI screen (and not the Interaction Center) when we execute a work item from outlook?
Thanks in advance for your help.
Best regards
Stephanie

Hi Govil,
Thanks.
The agent assignent is fine and the task is also made as general task . Even the object i am using is standard 'BUS2000120' not the custom one.
i feel the problem may be due to someworkflow settings between Web UI and backend. Let me know if any settings like such (apart from SWU3).
Any more suggesstions please????

Sateesh

Workitem - Link attached is not working

Hi,
I have a decision task containing a link to display scheduling agreement(via binding of &_ADHOC_OBJECT&).
For certain users, the link is not working. There's no response upon clicking the link.
What makes me wonder is that I have another workflow with a similar decision task which is having a link to display PO.
And it works for all users.
It's highly possible that this problem is caused by user authorization but I would like to know other plausibilities
If you have encountered this problem before, please share your solution/thoughts.
Thanks,
Jeff

Hi Jeff,
It should be the authorization problem.
Please add the SWO_ASYNC authorization object to the user.
If its not resolved, click that attachment link and then check the transaction SU53 for any authorization fails.
Thanks,
Viji.

Cancel WorkItem after execute a Method

Hi all,
Is there a way to cancel a workitem after executing a method?
I put this method at the tab METHODS in the activity USER DECISION, but when the method is executed before the workitem, i need this closed.
It´s because i am using a worklist at the PORTAL, and then what I need is to show the workitem at the UWL and then when the user click on the link to the WI, execute the METHOD (this method opens a webpage made with webdynpro).
Best Regards,
Ricardo

I think you want to complete the workitem , once the workitem is executed from the UWL right?
if this is the case as you said that you are using a Decision step which will open a webdynpro applicaiton once it is executed, then instead of using the methods tab, I suggest you to modify from the application side
1. If the end user clicks on the Approve button or reject button UNder the actions of these button, call the standard SAP fm SAP_WAPI_DECISION_COMPLETE to which you have to pass the currently executed workitem ID and Decision for approve as 0001 and for reject 0002.
this is more suitable and simple way of completing the worktem.

Launch URL/BSP from attachments link in workitem in Universal Worklist

Background info:
We have a custom business object. Default method on object in SWO1 is a custom display method. This display method returns a URL to a BSP.
When I open my workitem in SBWP and click the attachments link, it properly launches the URL which opens the BSP.
However, when I open same workitem in Universal worklist and click the attachments link, it does not properly open the BSP. It looks like it's trying to open a SAP GUI version of the object but nothing is displayed. When our developer puts a breakpoint in the ABAP code and we click the workitem link in UWL, the URL/BSP opens fine. So, UWL config must be doing something extra (added code? redirect?) that clobbers the URL/BSP launch. Anyone have any ideas/suggestions?
Thanks,
Matt
*Reminder, We are not trying to launch the BSP when you click the workitem link in the UWL list. This is the attachments link inside the workitem itself.

G'Day Matthew,
The reason this works from SBWP and not from UWL is because you have an ABAP session in between. You don't mention the type of attachment, but usually what gets executed is the default method of the object. Thus the UWL has to initiate an ITS/WebGUI session to execute the default object method - this method may contain code to launch a BSP but it still needs to get to the code to start with.
You need to find alternatives, see if Karri's suggestion does what you're after.
Cheers,
Mike
