How to create a 2 step workflow in CATS?

Hello Friends,
Iam trying to implement CATS. I have configured the data entry profile given the task ID TS31000007 (and the rule 157) and i see the workitem in managers inbox.
My questions are
1. My client wants an additonal step: If the manager goes on vacation the workitem should go to his superior or the workitem should wait in the managers inbox for 2 days and if he does not approve it within 2 days after that it should get forwarded to his superior.
How can i procede with this ?
Can i provide a workflow template in the data entry profile or is it only a task?
Can CATS be extended to multitask or is it always single step?
Regards
Sriram

Hi SK,
I doubt that could be done in CATS WF,
because the Data Entry Profile just considers the task-id, rather than a template.
Generally your case is solved using dead-line monitoring.

How to create publishing custom approval workflow will assign approvers.

Hi All,
I am new in sharepoint development.
I have a page library where we add artical page with different department
I want to create publishing custom approval workflow will assign approvers based on what department is selected for display. The departments pull from the Other list. On that list each department is assigned an approval group. That approval
group is what should be used for approving the item.
need send to mail with based on selected department approval group
thanks in advance.

Ok, what you're asking for is something that people do all the time, but you say you are new to sharepoint development... So...
Here's how you would do it in SPD:
http://blog.symprogress.com/2011/03/sharepoint-2010-dynamic-approvers-for-oob-approval-workflow/
and here's how you can do it in visual studio:
http://www.mpspartners.com/2011/10/SharePoint2010ApprovalWorkflowDynamicApprovers/
Either way should work, it just depends on your comfort level inside the dev environment.

How to create function module step by step

hi experts,
i am new to ABAP.
can anybody tell me the step by step process on how to create a function module for adding two numbers without using editor screen.
ex: 2+3=5.

Hi,
You can only create function modules and function groups using the Function Builder in the ABAP Workbench. For further information, refer to Creating New Function Modules. This section uses an example to illustrate how a function module is created from the point of view of ABAP programming.
Function Groups and Function Modules:
Firstly, we create a new function group DEMO_SPFLI to hold the function module. Then, we can create the new function module.
Parameter Interface:
You can specify the types of interface parameters in function modules in the
same way as the parameter interfaces of subroutines. Since function
modules can be used anywhere in the system, their interfaces can only contain
references to data types that are declared systemwide. These are the elementary
ABAP data types, the systemwide generic types, such as ANY TABLE, and types
defined in the ABAP Dictionary. You cannot use LIKE to refer to data types
declared in the main program.
Exceptions:
Our function module needs an exception that it can trigger if there are no entries
in table SPFLI that meet the selection criterion. The exception NOT_FOUND
serves this function.
Source Code:
Having defined the parameter interface and exceptions, we can now write the
source code of our function module. To do this, choose Source code in the
Function Builder. This opens the ABAP Editor for the include program
L<fgrp>U<xx> (see Function Groups). This is the include that will
hold the program code for the function module;
Data in Function Modules
You can use the TYPES and DATA statements to create local data types and
objects. The interface parameters also behave like local data objects. In
addition, you can access all of the global data of the main program. This data is
defined in the include program L<fgrp>TOP. To open this include, choose Goto
Global data. The global data behaves like the instance attributes of a class.
The first time you call a function module in a particular function group, the data is
loaded into memory. It can then be accessed and changed by all of the function
modules in the group. The system retains the values until the next time a function
module is called.
Calling Subroutines
You use subroutines for local modularization. Function modules can
also use this technique. The function module that they call are defined in the
corresponding main program.
If you only want to call a subroutine from a single function module, it is best to
define them in the same include program as the function module itself, directly
after the ENDFUNCTION statement. These subroutines can be called from all
function modules in the function group, but for clarity, they should only be called
from the function module that precedes them.
If you want to define a subroutine that will be called from several different function
modules, you can define a special include program for it with the name
L<fgrp>F<xx>.
Raising Exceptions
There are two ABAP statements for raising exceptions. They can only be used in
function modules:
RAISE <except>.
and
MESSAGE..... RAISING <except>.
The effect of these statements depends on whether the calling program handles
the exception or not. If the name <except> of the exception or OTHERS occurs
in the EXCEPTIONS addition of the CALL FUNCTION statement, the exception is
handled by the calling program.
If the calling program does not handle the exception
The RAISE statement terminates the program and switches to debugging mode.
The MESSAGE ..... RAISING statement display the specified message. How the
processing continues depends on the message type.
If the calling program handles the exception, both statements return control to the
program. No values are transferred. The MESSAGE ..... RAISING statement
does not display a message. Instead, it fills the system fields SY-MSGID, SYMSGTY,
SY-MSGNO, and SY-MSGV1 to SY-MSGV4.
Source Code of READ_SPFLI_INTO_TABLE
The entire source code of READ_SPFLI_INTO_TABLE looks like this:
FUNCTION READ_SPFLI_INTO_TABLE.
""Local interface:
*" IMPORTING
*" VALUE(ID) LIKE SPFLI-CARRID DEFAULT 'LH '
*" EXPORTING
*" VALUE(ITAB) TYPE SPFLI_TAB
*" EXCEPTIONS
*" NOT_FOUND
SELECT * FROM SPFLI INTO TABLE ITAB WHERE CARRID = ID.
IF SY-SUBRC NE 0.
MESSAGE E007(AT) RAISING NOT_FOUND.
ENDIF.
ENDFUNCTION.
The function module reads all of the data from the database table SPFLI where
the key field CARRID is equal to the import parameter ID and places the entries
that it finds into the internal table SPFLI_TAB. If it cannot find any entries, the
exception NOT_FOUND is triggered using MESSAGE...RAISING. Otherwise, the
table is passed to the caller as an exporting parameter.

Chandru

How to create a Quick Step to create an appointment but keep the formatting

I created a Quick Step in Outlook 2013 to create an appointment from a selected email. The process works except the appointment is created with only the text from the email; all formatting and graphics are lost. I guess this is the expected
behavior since the Action is called "Create an appoint with text of message." Is there a way to set this up so the formatting is retained?

Hi,
This is expected and not changeable currently.

Thanks in Advcance.

Edited by: Vinod Kumar on Aug 3, 2011 1:49 PM

Hi Jubish/Venkat
1. I iterated this fucntion moudule to store the multiple attachments to the workflow
SAP_WAPI_ATTACHMENT_ADD
2. Call this FM to get the attachemnts form the workflow (pass workitem Item id which is used for storing the attchments). SAP_WAPI_GET_ATTACHMENTS
from above you will get objkey for each attachment as output in table.
3. Pass the objkey to this FM to get the contents
SO_DOCUMENT_READ_API1'. this will retrun the content of the attachment either in object_content, contents_hex.
4. Pass the Obtained content to SCMS_BINARY_TO_XSTRING to get the disired format.

How to create users ,groups and workflow in batch?

I have to create 100 groups for each course,and each course has a admin user.Each group has some workflows .These workflow can only be viewed by some users.
Can i import user name and password from a .txt file and do the work automatically?
It is a hard work if i do it manually.

I'm not sure you want to import users to use the magic triangle properly. I think importing creates 'Augmented Records' - the user icons have blue dots.
The principle is this…
Bind the server to Active Directory (AD) & create an Open Directory master (OD). This can be done from Server Admin, in the OD section, via the change button.
Then you use Workgroup Manager, set the viewing directory (tiny little globe in top left) to use LDAP records on the server - LDAPv3/127.0.0.1. Authenticate (lock on right of toolbar) add a group, then switch to to its Members tab, click + Then change the user list to show the AD records & add the AD users to the OD group. It sounds weird & wrong, but it is how it works.
You are never modifying the AD records, just assigning a group to the users in OD. It's why the clients need to bind to AD & OD.
From there you can set the Managed prefs (MCX) for the members of the OD group. It also helps to add a guest computer account to OD to assign computer prefs based on the macs that bind to the server - it's in the File menu when you select the computes list in OD.
I hope that's clear, not sure I can help with the other tasks, but they tend to fall into place once you have the complex start in place.

How to create a 20 step Stack Sequence

Howdy,
I would recommend you putting your Temp and Soak controls into arrays, and utilize a State Machine, rather than the Sequence structure. You'll get much better performance, and your code will be much easier to work with in the long run.
If you need more help after trying that, just ask!

How to create Detour in MSMP Workflow?

Hello GRC Experts,
we are implementing GRC Access Control 10.0 with all four components: CUP, BRM, EAM and RAR.
We have customized the CUP and BRM Workflows without Detour rules, they are working fine so far. But now we have a following issue:
We would like to create Detour rules for CUP Workflow for the following Scenario:
1. Case: No SoD
Request-->Role Owner Approval-->Provisioning
2. Case: SoD
Request--> SoD Risk-->Security Stage-->Role Owner (if Security Stage approves, then Role Owner also approves)--> Provisioning
I have Created two paths in MSMP workflow:
1st Path is Default Path with only one stage: Role Owner Approval stage
2nd Path is SoD Path with two stages:
Default and Security Stage
I have tested the CUP Workflow after creating of the Routing Rule, but it seems, it doesnt work. I have assigned a technical Role to a User, who has SOD risks. Me as approval received a notification about new work item, then I approved the role, and afterwards the Role was assigned to a user, whitout beeing forwarded to a security stage.
Can you please give me an advice what I have to do in order to make it work?
Thanks in advance,
best regards
Sabrina

Hello Mangesh,
let me explain you my issue:
When I am creating an request for my test user (Role Assigning), I am performing a Risk Analysis during the request creation. As you can see, I have SODs in my request.
My paths:
I have created two pathes:
Path1: GRAC_DEFAULT_PATH: with one stage. Routing enabled. With the ID: GRAC_MSMP_DETOUR_SODVIOL. Escalation to a Specified agend (Security Team)
Path 2: Z_GRAC_DEFAULT_PATH (SOD Path)
with two stages:
001:Role Owner Stage (Routing enabled) to a specified agent
002: Security Stage: no Routing enabled.
The Problem is, even though I have SOD in my reguest, no detour to a second path is occuring.There is somewhere a mistake, but I dont know where.
Here is my Route mapping.
Please, give me an advice, what I did wrong.
The another issue which makes me surprised. When I run the Report: Risk Volation in Access Request, there is no Violation! But I have SOD violations (see Schrrenshot no1)
Why this Report didnt Show the violations?
I hope, I could make you cleare, where is the Problem now?
Default path is working fine, bur the detour is not working. And the Report doesnt Show the violations...
Thanks in advance
best regards
Sabrina

How to create installed base through workflow

Hello everybody,
We are doing a CRM implementation for a telkom company and we have a requirement as such.
Suppose we are creating a contract for 10 products and then in the follow up transaction sales order I activate 5 of them.So my requirement is that we need to update the number of activated product in the contract as well..i.e- if 5 products are activated we need to ensure that in the contract this data is update.We want to achieve this functionality using workflows.Is there any method to created installed base components through workflow.
Help would be sincerely appreciated.

Hi N Panigrahi,
I dont think there is no installed base component available for workflow for the scenario that you have explained.

How to create Model for WD workflow?

Hi!
I have the task to develop a workflow using WebDynpro and NetWeaver MDM for Master Data maintaining (Exactly for creating a new Business Partner).
In one of my views there is a consistency check with nine inputfields, the user fills them out, and starts the search whether the Business Partner to be created exists already in the repository.
If there exists a Business Partner (or maybe more) like filled out before, I want to display them in a table.
I want to fill out this table using a Model thatswhy I need to create a Web Dynpro Model so that I can do the model mapping for the table.
Models in NWDS can be created from Web Services.I guess this model should be created from a Java class, but I do not know what kind of java class do I need for this.
(I have already implemented a class which connects to the MDM repositroy.)
So what should I implement in this class?
I guess I have to declare nine variables for the inputfields, but what kind of methods do I need?
Thanks in advance,
Peter

Hello:
you can use the standard WebServices created for MDM that are included on your MDM packages.
Install them on the webAS and you can call them over. As far as I know, there's such webService that enables searching on ther Repository

How to create a workflow dealing with customizing program(Add-on program)

Dear ALL,
I am new to workflow and I was assigned to create a workflow related to an customizing program(Dynpro screen).
I know we can refer to some std. template for workflow developing.
However, I don't know how to create a brand new workflow to deal with the add-on program and table.
My major difficulty is how to create a new object:
--How to create the new event to track the operation of add-on program, for example, push 'submit' button.
--How to create method to update the add-on table.
I do hope someone could give me some guidance.

Gary
