Expand UWL preview via variables without editing .XML

Hello,
I know it's possible to enhance UWLs (preview) via Enterprise Portal configurations. But does somebody know whether it is also possible to define or modify additional variables for the UWL workitems without editing the EP .XML files. For example via SRM customizing?
What i want to do is enhance the preview screen with additional information for approval workitems generated from an EBP workflow. I'm on an SRM 7.0 system.
I've found the following blog, i think it relates to configurations made in the EP but i can't find these screens in my EP. [Using Work Item Text Variables in Guided Procedures|http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/index?rid=/library/uuid/40246d25-2870-2a10-6fb4-b24bb5ec2b04&overridelayout=true]
Kind regards,
Tim

Hi Kerri,
Tried setting up descriptions, multiple types of descriptions can be maintained from transaction PFTC. The 'Task Description' already contained the underneath description but as you have seen in my previously attached screenshot this description does not show in the Enterprise Portal.
You are responsible for the approval of shopping cart "
&BOR_OBJECT.DOCUMENTNAME& " &BOR_OBJECT.REQUISITIONERNAME&.
The total value is &BOR_OBJECT.TOTALVALUESTRING& &BOR_OBJECT.CURRENCY&.
You can use decision buttons to approve or reject the shopping cart.
I've also configured the other 'Descriptions' types available with some test data but these don't show up either. I'll keep these up untill tomorrow to see if anything changes.
I'm guessing this would be an SRM_SERVER / EP_Portal issue: EP/UWL is not picking up the maintained description. I'll search for notes..
Thanks a lot for explaining.
Tim

  • How to merge all parts of a variable without losing xml tags?

    Hi
    In my Bpel process I have I invoke an operation whose output variable is a multi-part variable. Due to some requirements , I need to merge the data from all the parts (without removing the XML tags) and return them in a single part Bpel output variable. So I'm using the below expression in the copy rule:
    concat(concat(concat(concat(concat('<body>',bpws:getVariableData('Function_OutputVariable','body')),'</body>'),
    '<header>'),bpws:getVariableData('Function_OutputVariable','header')),'</header>')
    But the resultant value (the culprit is getVariableData) is deprived of all xml tags in the output parts. For example if my operation output variable is of 2 parts as ::
    <Function_OutputVariable>
    <part xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" name="body">
    <Function_Response_body xmlns:oans="http://xmlns.oracle.com/apps/fnd/rep/ws" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance">
    <Return>
    <InterfaceFunction>

    </InterfaceFunction>
    </Return>
    </oans:Function_Response_body>

    Blah
    </oans:Function_Response_header>
    </part>
    </Function_OutputVariable>
    My resultant expression becomes

  • Changing default picture viewer via GPO without changing image type and icon (Windows 7)

    Hello,
    I am trying to change the default picture viewer for some file extensions (.bmp, .jpeg, .png and .tiff). Actually Windows Photo Viewer is the default viewer and we need to replace it with Microsoft Office Picture Manager.
    I managed to do that change via GPO using the 'open with' preference under User Configuration\ Preferences\Control Panel Settings\Folder Options. So now the files are opened with Microsoft Office Picture Manager (office 2010). The problem is that the image
    type became 'OIS.EXE' for all the specified file extensions. Moreover the icon is now the same (Microsoft Office 2010).
    When I change manually the associated program for a file extension, the icon change but no the image type... this is different using GPO.
    Is there a solution in order to change the default program but keeping the image type and associated icon ?
    I tried to do that modification using the 'new file type' preference under Computer Configuration\Preferences\Control Panel Settings\Folder Options. I specified the 'open' action for OIS.exe, selected file extension BMP with associated class 'Bitmap Image'.
    It solves the problem for image type, Microsoft Office Picture Manager opens the files ... but I have to specify the icon file path and icon index and I don't know where I can find the default icons for the file extensions ...
    What is the best solution ? Am I right ? Am I doing something wrong ?
    Thank you in advance !

    Hello,
    thank you very much for your answers.
    For the rollback, I will reimport the original/default keys for all the image types, this should be ok.
    Here are the problems I have trying to pu Microsoft Office Picture Manager as default picture viewer (I just want  .bmp, .jpg ... files to be opened with Microsoft Office Picture Manager by default).
    1 Using new file type under Computer Configuration\Preferences\Control Panel Settings\folder options. : I define a new file type (BMP for example), associated class Bitmap Image, I configure the icon (imageres.dll,65) and an open action where OIS.EXE
    is the application used to perform the action.
    Result : Icon is correct, file type is correct, image files are opened with OIS.EXE (correct) ... BUT now Microsoft Office 2010 appears twice in open or open with menu
    2 Using new open with under User configuration\Preferences\Control Panel Settings\Folder Options : new open with preference, action (update or replace same result), file extension BMP, associated program (path to OIS.EXE), i check set as default.
    Result : Office 2010 opens image files (correct) but icon is Office 2010 one and the file type is now 'OIS.EXE' for all image file extensions I have specified ... so it won't be possible to sort the file by image type if I select that method...
    3 Using ftype : OIS.EXE doesn't open the file when I double click on it but Microsoft Office 2010 appears twice in the open or open with list ...
    I am a bit lost ... what is the best method to put Microsoft Office Picture Manager as default picture viewer, keeping the image type (Bitmap image, JPEG image etc) and without having Microsoft Office 2010 twice in the open or open with list ??
    Last question : by default an image file is opened and previewed with Windows Photo viewer and edited with Paint. I would like just to open images with Office 2010 but keep Windows Photo viewer for preview and Paint for edit ... Is it possible ??
    Thank you in advance for any help and support !!

  • How can I edit XML results ?

    Hi,
    In the documentation I read about how to get the results of a query (in .xsql) as a XML-page using the XSQL Servlet. With forms I can insert data into the Database, but what about retrieving data from it and immediately edit and update it (combination of the two) ?
    What is the easiest way to achieve that ? I just want to update my data using XML as a data interchange format...
    thanks,
    Erik

    One of the difficulties would be locking
    your record.
    Without locking, it's just a matter of
    writing your XSL to enter data as a default
    value into text fields in a form.
    You could also use Transviewer Beans to
    create a Swing app to edit XML files.

  • "Display Form" button not visible in UWL preview

    Hi Friends,
    We are implementing Travel module. The standard Workflow WS20000050 has a single level of approval. However, we wanted 2 level approval and so accordingly this was implemened.
    Now we want a 3rd level of decision step to be approved by the traveldesk on recept of tickets.
    Even the pdf form, which contains the travel details, needs to be visible. In the standard task TS20000118, the "Display Form" button is automatically visible in the UWL preview apart from the usual 
    "Approve" and "Reject" buttons.
    However the content that needs to be shown to the traveldesk is different. To achieve this, i copied the standard task TS20000118 and changed only the task description. Rest everything including the parameters and binding remains same.
    But for this task, the "Display Form" button is not visible.
    1. Please advice on the possible reasons why this is happening ?
    2. Is there any setting or any SPRO configuration wherin we need to 
        specify the tasks for whom the button needs to be displayed ?? or
        Is it some portal side configuration ?
    Thanks,
    Shashank

    Hi Vijay,
    Goto:
    Universal Worklist Content Configuration -> Click to Administrate Item Types and View Definitions
    In the table under the "Current Configurations" tab, select the standard travel configuration provided by SAP -> "com.sap.pct.erp.mss.tra".
    Here, search for the code of the task for which everything is working fine; in our case it was TS20000118. Copy this piece of code.
    Now download the currently active XML configuration. In the saved XML file, search for the task code which is not working as expected. Replace this piece of code with the code copied in the above step. Save with a different name.
    Upload this new configuration with HIgh priority.
    Reregister the connector and clear the cache.
    These steps solved my problem. Probably it should work for you too.
    Regards,
    Shashank

  • I transferred a pages file from ipad to mac (also pages) via email for editing. However received message that cannot save edited document to the mac because "trial period has expired for iwork"! I have purchased pages for both machines separately. Ideas?

    I transferred a pages file from ipad to mac (also pages) via email for editing. It opened normally. However, after editing, received message that cannot save edited document to the mac because "trial period has expired for iwork"! I have purchased pages for both machines separately and presumed they would work without a hitch. Am I missing something?

    It used to be that to update the trial to the licensed version with the box, you just inserted the DVD & ran the installer to convert the trial to licensed. This changed with Snow Leopard. You now need to delete the trial & then reinstall from the boxed DVD or the Mac App Store. The files to delete are the iWork ’09 folder from the main HD > Applications; the iWork ’09 folder in HD > Library > Application Support & the individual iWork application plist files found in HD > Users > (your account) > Library > Preferences for each user.
    Yvan Koenig has written an AppleScript that removes the files. You can find it on his iDisk in For_iWork > iWork '09 > uninstall iWork '09.zip.

  • Use of variables in "FOR XML PATH"

    Other than using dynamic sql (which we don't want to use) is there a way to use a variable in For XML Path, e.g.
    select
    FOR XML PATH (@BookName), ROOT('Book'), TYPE
    TIA,
    edm2

    In terms of general XML design this is poor.  An element is normally a 'thing', and the attributes are normally the properties of that thing.  Therefore in your case you would have a Book property with a 'name' attribute.  It would be impossible
    to create an XSD for your xml, and makes it awkward for readers of your xml - how do they know the book name beforehand?  Creating this xml in the normal fashion would also make it easy to create without any messing around ( string manipulation,
    other hacks ), eg
    DECLARE @BookName NVARCHAR(20) = 'SomeBook'
    SELECT
    @BookName "@name"
    -- Other book attributes
    FOR XML PATH ('Book'), ROOT('Books'), TYPE
    So now you have a Book item(s) within a Books collection.  Easy!  : )

  • Preview.app search without toolbar

    I can't bear it anymore.
    I view pdfs (lots of them) in a clean window, with no huge icons taking screen space, no toolbar/sidebar, I take advantage of the marvelous control tool that is my MBP's keyboard, but the search feature of Preview.app has been killing me now for I think at least 2 years.
    I crave for the possibility to just use Cmd+F type my text and go to the next hit with Cmd+G, like in Safari.
    Instead it's a mess:
    I get a bar appearing at the top of the window if I want to hide it I have to click done, which also cancels my search (I cannot use Cmd+G). In Safari with Esc the bar disappears but we can still use Cmd+G. Ideally I would not have any bar appearing, just a bubble with my search text, but the Safari-style bar is definitely ok.
    If I hit Cmd+F again my previous search is deleted, so I cannot edit/refine my search. I have to retype everything very carefully.
    There is also the huge side panel with thumbnails and rankings of hits which I could not care less for 99% of the time, which pops up everytime I hit Cmd+G, and which I hide after most searches with CmdShiftD, if I am not waned.
    My questions are:
    Is there anyway to live better with the current Preview.app? Without keeping the large toolbars/sidebars/panels visible all the time.
    Is there any improvement coming with the next Mac OS?
    Can Apple Mac OS people responsible for this interface hear me?
    Thank you for any help.

    Press command-F, and providing it is not graphics text, place double-quotes around the phrase you want to match, and press return. Notice the arrows in the upper right corner of your document that allow you to advance or retreat to search matches.

  • UWL Preview not visible

    Hi All,
    I am on Portal 701,
    i have created a system object for SRM ABAP system in Portal.
    Have created UWL Connector for SRM ABAP system with the same name in System Admin-->Universal worklist
    Have registered the System successfully.
    Have defined a RFC Connector in visual admin as well.
    User are able to see workitems in their inbox.
    However they are unable to see UWL preview , i mean they don't get to see Task details in the preview.
    Any suggestions on how to get UWL preview?
    Regards,
    Ashish Shah

    hi Ashish,
    As my understanding , you missed some of the configuration steps in uwl -Admin.
    you should maintain the Task ID in uwl.task.webflow.SAP_ERP_HumanResources.xml file
    like the below tag<>
    <ItemType name="uwl.task.webflow.TS00008267.SAP_ERP_HumanResources" connector="WebFlowConnector" defaultView="DefaultView" defaultAction="launchSAPAction" executionMode="default">.
    After giving the task id's in uwl-admin. you have to clear the cache in uwl then it will be reflect.
    Hope this will be helpfull for you.
    Thanks&Regards,

  • Define and change variables without redeploy

    Hello there,
    what i want to accomplish (and have tried in vain so far) is to define a variable 'jndi_url' for my web application and change the value for that variable without redeploying the application or restarting the weblogic server.
    When i set the variable for example in the web.xml everything works, but to change the value i would have to redeploy the application. :-(
    Then i experimented with a deployment plan, but that seems to configure only a predefined set of variables, like the session timeout, etc.
    I thought this should be a simple task and i hope somebody can help me out.
    Thanks for any answers to this!

    david,
    back to the root of my question:
    I do use an 10 years old low-end sql / plsql-tool where I can simple and fast do sql-things like that:
    select col1, col2 into :bind1, :bind2 from mybasictable_10 where col3 = 'for_example_ABCD':
    select * from mytable_b where b1 = :bind1 and b2 = :bind2 ;
    select * from mytable_c where c1 = :bind1 and c2 = :bind2 ;
    select * from mytable_d where d1 = :bind1 and d2 = :bind2 ;
    select * from mytable_e where e1 = :bind1 and e2 = :bind2 ;
    I would like to use oracles SQL-Developer instead of this 'old' tool,
    and want to use my 'old' sql / plsql scripts
    but the SQL-Developer in this matter seems is to much complicate to use,
    I can do complex and big things with sql-dev,
    but not simple using bind-variables ;-)( .
