How to assign task to multiple user & current task in waiting state

Hi,
In the workflow i want to assign the tak to multiple user one by one & current task should remain open & should also wait for completion of assigned tasks. for Example - I have Task 1 & Task 2.
From Task 1, user can assign the Task 2 to different multiple user at the same time or user can assign the Task 2 to different users at some time interval.
Now, Task 1 user should wait to complete the all Task 2 assignment or Task 1 user can close the Task 2. If Task 2 user is not responding.
Task 1 should remain in open state till Complete action not taken.
Please help me how can i achieve the above scenario in BPM11g 11.1.1.6.0

I think you can sue Workcenter option here. I generally do some coding in User Exit for FM ME_REL_GET_RESPONSIBLE
which is attached to Rule 20000027.
For the Release effected step you can add but I think you have to create cuistom Wflow for that. You cannot use WS20000075.
Thanks

How to assign Action to multiple Users dynamically in GP

Hello Experts,
I have the following scenario in GP
I have created a Web Dynro GP Callable Object and from my Web Dynpro i need to a pass a list of Users to which a particular Action needs to be assigned.
I am able to return a single value from web dynpro to gp.
Can some one help me how to return a list of users to gp.
I have done the following: In the getDescription method I have added an attribute of multiplicity 1_N:
IGPStructureInfo outputStruct = technicalDescription.getOutputStructureInfo();
IGPAttributeInfo list1 = outputStruct.addAttribute("List1", IGPAttributeInfo.BASE_STRING);
list1.setMultiplicity(IGPAttributeInfo.MULITIPLICITY_1_N);
then in the complete method I am trying to set an Arraylist to this variable:
IGPStructure output = execContext.getOutputStructure();
output.setAttributeValue("List1", userList);
Here userList is an Arraylist which contains the list of User Id's..
However I get the following exception:
com.sap.caf.eu.gp.exception.api.GPInvocationException: Multiplicity of attribute with name List1 and namespace null does not allow single values to be set/received
at com.sap.caf.eu.gp.structure.impl.GPStructure.setAttributeValue(GPStructure.java:114)
Can someone help me in knowing how I can return a list as an output parameter to GP from Web Dynpro...
Regards
Sundeep

Hi Srinivasan,
Of course the Role is Runtime defined...
I would brief you again the mapping that I have performed in the Design time at the processlevel.
From Web Dynpro I return a List of type String and Multiplicity 1..N.
I map this List with the leaf item User Identifier contained in the User List Input parameter of the Assign User to Process Role callable object.
However since the User Identifier parameter is of cardinality 0..1 only the first value in the returned list is getting assigned to it. Thus the task is getting assigned to only one user.
Now it is not possible in Design time to Group or consolidate parameters of different types. Thus the List which is of type String cannot be mapped to User List or the User_Item contained within it which are both of type Structure and multiple cardinality.
I even created a Structure in Web Dynpro of cardinality 1..N and withing it i included a List of type String and cardinality 1..N. Now I returned this Structure from Web Dynpro and tried to map it to the User Item Structure of the Assign User to Process Role Callable object, but doint this the task did not get assigned to any user..
One question:
Don't you think that in order for the task assignment to happen using the Assign User to Process Role Callable Object the leaf item User Identifier parameter contained in the User_List input parameter of this callable object needs to be populated with the required User Id's.
But if the cardinality of this parameter is always 0..1 , is it possible to achive the assignment of an Action to multiple Users at runtime using this Callable Object?
Can you please explain the parameter mapping you followed in order to achive this...

How to assign Tasks to other users using Exchange Web Service.
Any workaround also would help

Hi Glen,
I am trying to use ExtendedPropertyType and put in UpdaterItemType as in this code as below. Although it is not updating the Owner
field.
I have tried it both by Propertyname and PropertyID. Although new custom property's canbe
added but to change an existing one like 'Owner' ? Would this be the right method.
2. And Is ProprertyID a fixed value as 0x811f or does it need to be calculated.
3. Is 'Owner' the right propertname for assigning a task ?
Thanks a lot.
Please see code below for reference.
PathToExtendedFieldType pathExtended = new PathToExtendedFieldType();
//pathExtended.DistinguishedPropertySetId = DistinguishedPropertySetType.PublicStrings;
pathExtended.DistinguishedPropertySetId = DistinguishedPropertySetType.Task;
pathExtended.DistinguishedPropertySetIdSpecified = true;
pathExtended.PropertyId = 0x811f;
pathExtended.PropertyIdSpecified = true;
//pathExtended.PropertyName = "Owner";
pathExtended.PropertyType = MapiPropertyTypeType.String;
ciSetAT.ExtendedProperty = new ExtendedPropertyType[1];
ciSetAT.ExtendedProperty[0] = new ExtendedPropertyType();
ciSetAT.ExtendedProperty[0].ExtendedFieldURI = pathExtended;
ciSetAT.ExtendedProperty[0].Item = "[email protected]";
SetItemFieldType set1 = new SetItemFieldType();
set1.Item = pathExtended;
set1.Item1 = ciSetAT;
UpdateItemType request = new UpdateItemType();
request.ItemChanges = new ItemChangeType[1] { new ItemChangeType() };
request.ItemChanges[0].Item = itemId;
request.ItemChanges[0].Updates = new ItemChangeDescriptionType[2];
request.ItemChanges[0].Updates[0] = setstart;
request.ItemChanges[0].Updates[1] = set1;

How can current task in waiting state till completion of all threads.

How can we implement the activity which will be in waiting state till all the sub threads initiated from this activity complete.
I have implemented the workflow as once the flow will reach to an activity after that we are creating the multiple instances of event subprocess. Now i want to force user that he cannot take any action on the activity till all the event subprocess completes.
Please help me in this scenario.
Thanks

Dan,
I am trying to assign one request as a sub requests to different user. Now, Once all this sub requests complete then only user of main request should allow to action on task. Let me try to explain scenario from business point of view.
Suppose, an employee is joining an organization. Now, HR is sending the request to different departments to collect the information. First day HR has send request to Finance & HR department, next day again HR has sent request to travel department & resource department. Now, till all this department responds to HR's query. HR should not allow to complete the current task from HR has sent the requests to all department.
Please note that HR can send the request to all department at the same time or by different time interval.
I tried to implement the scenario using the event subprocess which is message based & correlation has been set between the main process & event subprocess. But the problem is User is able to take action on the current task even if the subprocesses in running state. I want user should get message that "subprocess task is in running state you can not take action. subprocess task should complete first."

Changing Assignment Details for multiple user

Hi everyone,
In the RelationShips tab of a bundle, how can we change the "Assignment Details" for multiple user at once? Per exemple, I have a bundle that have about 100 user assignments. The bundle show on Start Menu but no on the Nal. If we want all of our users to have this bundle on the Nal Windows, how can we instruct that easily and quickly, instead of selecting each user and changing the Assignment Details ?
thank you for your help !

I am also trying to update the shortcut locations on many apps for a mass amount of users. Mr. Pond, or dominicm, can you explain or give a example ZMAN command that would be able to do this? From the documentation I can find it only seems to affect the distribution and scheduling but not the shortcut location.

Our requirement to send email to multiple users, get the user groups from lookup list people and groups column.
But SP designer sending emails to the first user alone.
Please guide me to proceed.
Advance Thanks.

finally I got a solution
Identified a workaround to solve the issue using SharePoint designer.
Step 1
Create a lookup list Example department
Columns
Title (by default) – Single line of text
Users – Person or Group
Emails – Multiple lines of text
hidden the Emails column (go to content type and set the column as hidden)
Create a SharePoint designer Workflow
Start Workflow automatically when an item is created
Also Start Workflow automatically when an item is changed
Workflow Stage 1
Set Emails to current Item: Users
The workflow will get all users email ids and add in the Emails column delimiter as semicolon.
Step 2
Create a custom list to get the email ids and send email
Create a lookup column ex: analysis and refer department list, Allow multiple values
Then Create a SharePoint designer workflow

The iPad mini is basically a one user device. There are no Accounts. You can set up restrictions so that only you can do certain things.

Create separate user accounts for each use. Use Accounts preferences or Users & Groups preferences depending on which version of OS X you are using.

How to assign task to others with an attachment?

Hi All,
How to assign task to other with an attachment and field values in the actual InfoPath form?
In detail, If a InfoPath form has submitted then task should be assigned to a person with an attachment and some field values which are present in InfoPath form.
How to achieve this scenario?
Thanks in advance!

What you describe is a simple approval workflow. SharePoint comes with approval workflows out of the box.
When a task is created to approve an item, it does not need to have the attachment that is already in the item. The task will contain a link to the item that needs to be approved, so there is no need to duplicate the file attachment.

How to assign managers to a user

Hi everyone,
I am pretty new to BPM.
Can anyone please help me on how to assign manager of a user and also his reportees.
These details are then seen when u manage the organisation in Jdeveloper.
Thanks in advance.

Then you are looking at the LDAP users.
If you are using WLS Embedded LDAP, then you need to use an external LDAP browser like JXplorer to connect to the WLS Embedded LDAP. Once you connect to the LDAP, you can see the attributes like manager, title, etc. All you need to do is set this attribute value for the corresponding users. Reportee hierarchy will be formed automatcially.
http://www.weblogic-wonders.com/weblogic/2010/05/20/connecting-to-weblogic-server-embedded-ldap-using-ldap-browser/
Incase of external LDAP, you can either use the component specific browsers or JXplorer to achieve the same.

How to see system status in spro. How to assign business transaction to user status.

Hi All,
How to see system status in spro. can we change system status in spro for maintenance order.kindly share.
Also share how can we assign business transaction to user status for maintenance order

Peter,
You cannot see the system-status in SPRO.
You can view the system-statuses via BS23.
Be warned - it is NOT advisable to change the system-status setting as you may screw-up your system. Remember that many statuses are used across multiple objects and multiple modules.

HERE'S HOW TO SHARE iCAL w/ MULTIPLE USERS on 1 Mac

Here's how to share iCal calendars among multiple users on a single Mac.
What you need to do is to move the iCal folder to a shared folder that is accessible to all users and then replace the iCal folder in each user's library folder with a "symbolic link' to the shared iCal folder. The symbolic link looks like an "alias", but if you try this using "aliases" to the shared iCal folder it will not work (trust me). You can create symbolic links using the Terminal, but I have no idea how, and the idea of using the Terminal scares me. The easiest way that I know of to create a symbolic link is with a shareware application called Cocktail. It allows you to do a number of different things including System Maintenance, Network Optimization, etc. It took me a while to remember how to do this; I originally found the information in the Discussions when iCal was first released, but apparently none of those original postings are listed in the forums anymore.
Here's how to do it (you must have Administrator privileges):
First locate your iCal folder (your user name > Library > Application Support > iCal) and make a copy of it (Finder > File > Duplicate). Drag the copy to your Desktop until you're sure iCal is being shared between users.
Next move the original iCal folder into a Shared folder in the Users folder (Hard Disk > Users > Shared > iCal). To make sure all users can access the information, select the Shared folder, choose File > Get Info, click the little Lock icon, then under "Ownership & Permissions -> Details" make sure that the "Owner" is "System", "Group" is "Wheel" and "Access" for Owner, Group and Others is "Read & Write". Do the same with the iCal folder within the Shared folder, but this time, under "Ownership & Permissions -> Details" make sure that the "Owner" is "your user name", "Group" is "Staff" and "Access" for Owner, Group and Others is "Read & Write" and click the "Apply to Enclosed Items" button. I basing this information on what the Ownership & Permissions are for each of the folders in my system.
Open Cocktail (I'm using version 3.6.5). Once the app is open (you must enter an administrator's user name and password) click on the "Files" button, then click on the "Links" button. Where it says "Create Symbolic Link" click on the "Choose" button. Navigate to the iCal folder (Hard Disk > Users > Shared > iCal) and click "Choose" again. In the "Save As" box that appears enter "iCal", then navigate to the Application Support folder in your Home folder (your user name > Library > Application Support) and click "Save". Quit Cocktail and open iCal. You should see all of your calendars as you did before.
Log in under each additional User, move that User's iCal folder (user name > Library > Application Support > iCal) onto the Desktop, then create another Symbolic Link to replace it, using Cocktail as described above. In each case you should see the same calendar information as when you were logged in under your user name. As a test, add a New Event or To Do in iCal under one user, log out and back in under another user and you should see the changes when you open iCal.
Once everything appears to be working, you can delete the iCal folders from each User's Desktop.
As an additional maintenance measure, use Disk Utility to repair Disk Permissions.
Unfortunately, if each User has his/her own calendars in iCal they will not be in the shared calendars. Only the calendars in the first iCal folder used to set up the shared folder will be available and I don't know of any way to merge or combine the other user's calendars into one.
Hope this helps and good luck!

If every user first exports their calendars (with unique names) and then the "First" user imports them, before all the other set up, everyone's calendar will be there.
Also, iCalShare lets you publish and subscribe on a computer or across a local network, without having to let everyone see and edit all your calendars.

How to restrict login for multiple users having same Role

Our Web Application is deployed on Tomcat 5.5
The requirement is ?
There are roles in application like "operator", "admin"?
There are multiple users created for each of the above role.
When one user of "operator" role is logged in, then
It should not allow to login for another user of "operator" role.
Also, if user did not log out & application gets close, then
It should not allow to login for another user of "operator" role.
Also, it should not allow to login for multiple requests of same user
(using another browser instance...)
Is it possible using session object?
But, using session object, it will create separate objects for different users,
So here I will not be able to restrict session object creation rolewise.
Also, how to retrieve these multiple session objects created for different users on server?
If anyone is having the solution please reply as soon as possible,
Thank you.

To tell you the truth, this is a stupid requirement. It must be an extremely fragile application.
In any case, you will have to write your stuff for that. Probably a filter that on login, logout, and session expiration checks, makes, or removes entries in a DB (using a synchronized resource to prevent race conditions) or possibly even simply in an application context object.
