How forward User Decision attachment to previous approver?

Hi all,
I would like to forward the user decision work item - attachment notes to the previous approver. how to forward this?.
In my workflow i have four approvers. if 2nd approver rejects/approves the work item using user decision and he is typing the text in the attachment by clicking attachment button in the work item user decision display. Now i would like to send this to the previous approver ... how to do tis?
Regards,
Roops.

This attachment will be stored in the AttachObjects container eleent in Task 300052. You need to bind this container element in AttachObjects of Workflow container and create send mail step with this attachement being sent to the 1st approver.
For all this it is better to copy standard Wflow and change accordingly in your custom Workflow.
Thanks

How to force note attachment in an approval process ?

Hello experts,
I am trying to find a solution in order to force an agent to write a note as attachment, during an approval workflow process, especially when the agent rejects.
Does somebody already implement such solution, and how ?
Thanks in advance.
Vlef

Hi Vlef,
after your decision task, insert step "Document from Template" (standard SAP task TS70008298).
this will display a document in the agents' inboxes that they have to fill in. You can create a doc template at design time (SAP has some standard templates you can use, or can create yourself)
or can specify the template at run time, by populating the correspondent workflow container element "WF_DOCUMENT_0001".
I hope this helps,

Attaching HTTP Links for User Decisions?

hi all,
how can we attach HTTP Links along with User Decisions. i have previously attached Business Objects as links along with approve/reject button but this time I need to attach a HTTP link.
Points will be awarded.

hi ravi,
the basic requirement for me is that the frontend is going to be Webdynpro Pages controlled with a workflow in the backend. say if a personnel submits a form, it has go to the person's manager for approval.
So while approving it, if incase he wants to see the approval information, he would click on the URL which comes with the User Decision. this is the precise requirement.
Regarding Javascript code, where can we write the java code for URL's. is there any standard template which follows the same requirement.

User Decision - Outcome link to on a Previous Activity

Hi all, I'd like to ask to all WF expert about a doubt, is possible to link the outcome of a Activity of USER DECISION to a Previous Activity? In afirmative case, which will be the way?
Thank you and regards
Angel

Yes,
Use the container operation step in the particular branch of user decision step. Set value of some container say ABCD = 'X'
Then loop the user decision step. Check if the value in the container is X.
If true loop or else endloop.
Let me know if I have understood your requirement properly.
Let me know if you have any queries.

How user exits attached to SAP programs ?

How are user exits attached tp SAP programs ?
Is it through CALL FUNcTION 'Some-EXIT-NAME'
Now I know that in my case a user exit EXIT_SAPLCOIH_009 is implemented for transaction IW32. I am turning debugger on by using /H and then clicking on save event in IW32 when the user exit gets triggered.
Then I set break-point for CALL Function inside the debugger.
But I can't see CALL FUNCTION 'EXIT_SAPLCOIH_009' in the debugger of transaction program....
So I am just wondering is it this way the user exit is hanged to program. Please throw some light on this....

I would say that most are implemented as function modules which are usually called by something like this.
CALL CUSTOMER-FUNCTION 'WHATEVER'
Some are implemented as includes, like the ones for Sales Document Processing.
In your case, it is a function module, EXIT_SAPLCOIH_009 which is probably called by CALL CUSTOMER-FUNCTION '009', or something to that effect, somehow it translates to EXIT_SAPLCOIH_009. Also there must be a "Z" include in the function module EXIT_SAPLCOIH_009. Double click the include, system will ask you if you want to create it. Say yes. Now put a break-point in the include. Make sure to activte the enhancement in SMOD/CMOD. Run your main program, It should stop at your break point.

Url link in User Decision workflow step

Hi Experts,
I had created a workflow for "Employee transfer" process using SWDD tcode.
I had a created a workflow step with type as "User Decision".I had included "Approve" & "Reject" decision options.
Now i want to include URL link along with "Approve" & "Reject" in the user decision workflow step (i.e) The manager needs to see the URL link along with "Approve" & "Reject" in his SAP workflow inbox.
Can anyone guide me...
Regards,
Krishna Balaji T

Hi Krishna,
I understand your issue. I have faced a similar issue in my project.
Here is the solution!
To add link of a URL you need to have the binding with the BO of the transaction your are refering to. To do this, you need to bind your BO event (triggering event) to the workflow container and then the workflow container to task container. This BO value should flow from event-> workflow -> task container to get the link in the User Decision.
To do the binding you need to follow the following steps:
1. Go to t-code SWDD and open your workflow template.
2. Go to Basic Data (cap sign button at the top of the screen) or click Ctrl + F8
3. Go to Start Events tab.
4. In the Object type enter your BO name (BO for the transaction you need to add as link), in Event of object enter the BO event. This would serve as the triggering event for your workflow.
5. Click on 'B' i.e. Binding Defined, click on generate automatic binding. It would automatically generate the appropriate binding for the workflow. You can also alter the binding as per requirement. This binding would ensure that the URL comes under 'objects and attachments' section.
6. Click on 'C' i.e. Start Condition. A dialog would open, select the appropriate start condition for the workflow. Check the condition before saving (recommended).
6. Click on 'A' to Activate the binding and start condition. All 'A', 'B' and 'C' would get green.
7. Save the changes made and activate your workflow.
8. Do the binding between the workflow and the user decision step. Select automatic binding (recommended).
You can also refer to the similar thread that I had provided solution to. This would help you resolve the issue!

Loading XML based on User Decision

Hello-
I am working on a Flash project that involves an intro movie,
which - when done - leads to a "decision" screen where the user
chooses what kind of "visitor" they are. In other words, an intro
movie will play and then lead to a screen with three choices: "I am
this", "I am this", or "I am this".
No matter what they choose, the area and graphics they are
taken to is the same (a flash map with rollover content pop-ups).
But, based on what kind of user they selected in the previous
screen, the content will vary slightly on this map. I could just
have three scenes for the three different users using the same
graphics and map (but with different content in each), but that
seems to be a waste. Is there a way to have the Flash map appear
with the correct content based on the user decision from the
previous screen?
An example would be this:
User A watches the intro movie and decides they are "Visitor
A". They click on that button and are taken to the Flash map with
their customized content (hopefully loaded via XML). User B watches
the same intro movie, but this time chooses "User B". They are
taken to the same map and area (within the same scene or clip), but
contains slightly different content.
Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks!

This sounds perfect... But, I simply don't know how to code
such a thing. Could anyone offer help with the script or point me
to a tutorial?
Thanks again.

How To Send Invoice List as attachment in User Decision Step?

HI All,
I have developed a workflow in which there is one ZMETHOD in which i will get the list of invoices.and that i want to send it as attachment to User Decision Step.
How to do this?
Regards,
Arpita

If your users will have access to MIR4, why not just bind the business object BUS2081 as an adhoc object into your decision step? That would solve everything pretty nicely, I think.

Creating attachment in User decision activity.

I am running a background ABAP report and the output of report is to be attached to the WI for user. The user will receive the decision step with attachment which includes report output as excel.
please suggest how can I achieve it. How can I attach report output to WF that will be going for user approval.

Hi Verma,
To show Output in Excel Format use document form Template step type and immediately followed by User decision so that when the user executes he will first see the excel sheet then he can take a decision on it.
If u want a display on the same user decision step type then make that method as default methos and bind it to the USER Decision container.

Dynamic name for attachment in User Decision

Hi...
I have a requirement wherein the name of the attachment in the user decision has to be populated dynamically. I am using the same BO method for user decision but is triggering 2 different objects. Please advice on how to achieve this.
Scenario - I am using BUS2081 for Invoice and for Credit Memo. If the credit memo is created, the approver has to see the name of the attachment as Credit Memo xxxx and if an invoice is created, he has to see the attachment as Invoice xxxx. As standard, whatever object is created, the attachment name is Incoming Invoice xxxx (name of the BO Object Bus2081).
Warm Regards,
Jubish Jacob

The object name is static but the default attribute can be changed (use a z-subobject and delegate back) so you can do something like this: instead of: incoming invoice(object name) 12345(invoice number - default attribute) you will have document(new object name) incoming invoice/credit memo 12345(document type & number concatenated - a new default attribute)
Another option - I think credit memos have an object (BUS2094) or you can create one - in the task have both object types in the container, when its a credit memo transfer only the credit object when it's an invoice transfer only the invoice object.

Sending Mail with attachment like User Decision

Hi,
Is there any way to send the document attached with the send mail step ? In User Decision, we can use binding between the workflow and task and document is attached. Like wise, is there any method ??
I know we can send the attachment using the FM SO_****. So don give that answers. I want to know without using the FM, is it possible or not ?
And i don want to use BO SOFM.
For example, in Project Definition, one person creates a milestone. WF is triggered and goes for attachment of concorrence note. One attaches the concorrence note and mail is send to initiator. In that mail, can he able to see the attachment ??

As far as I know the answer is "probably". You aren't saying how the mail is sent to initiator, you just say you don't want to use the FM or the BOR object type SOFM. I assume you are using the standard sendmail step type, i.e. BOR object type SELFITEM with method SendTaskDescription.
As I am sure you can imagine, an attachment doesn't magically appear. If you send a workflow step (task) to someone, you can bind attachments to make them available in work item display. If you send a message you can construct it with attachments, but that doesn't happen without any effort. If you look at the parameters for SendTaskDescription you will see that there is a parameter for attachments. Try passing (binding) a value to it. If your SendMail task doesn't include that parameter as importing parameter you will of course have to fix your task (TS object) first.

Step User Decision and Approval of Purchase Order

Hello All,
I have created a workflow with step user decision and also attached the object BUS2012 to display from SAP Inbox. But is there a way i can attached the object that would show the approval screen when the work item is executed, and also send a mail for the user decision.
Urgent help needed.

Hi,
You could use a secondary method in your user decision step which executes an object method and for example displays the PO so users can make the correct choice in the user decision.
Regarding sending an email you could have a sendmail step after the user decision step but wthis will not be executed until the user decision is complete. Why do you want to send an email?

Eddie

Hi,
If you are on ECC 5.0 or above, you can use the Extended Notif. for achieving this.
How are you getting the Outlook mail ?. If you already have Extn.Notif, then do the following :
1. In Transaction SWNCONFIG,for your Scenario and Category,
in the Subscription Basis Data -->Subscription Settings,
Set the parameter SHOW_ACTION_DECISION_AS as "LINK"
This will give you the options of your user decision as LInks in Outlook mail.
There is lot of material in this forum for Extended Notif. if you search.
Hope this helps.
