How Assigned TO field will be updated in "start Approval process" Task Action
I have created a reusable workflow in sharepoint designer. Am using “start Approval process“ Task Action. I have a question in “start Approval process“ Task Action.
I have username field in the list. I have created a task form field with name username in “start Approval process“ Task Action. I have assigned list username field to task field username field.
I have entered a user details in list user name field for new list item. Once the workflow has been started for that item a mail has been sent to the user whose name I have entered in the list user name field. Task has been assigned to the user whose name
I have entered in the list user name field.
When I have checked start Approval process task a send mail activity is present (Email Task notification currentitem:Assigned TO) .
I have not update Assigned To field explicitly.
1. Where / how the Assigned TO field is getting updated ?
2. Workflow Initiation and task creation will be done internally by the user who created the item in the list?
ThanksHi,
According to your post, my understanding is that you had questions about the “start Approval process“ Task Action.
When you add the “start Approval process“ Task Action, you need to to select the user who the task assign to.
To assign the user whose name you have entered in the list user name field, you add action as below:
After you select the user, the Assigned TO field is getting updated.
In addition, workflow Initiation and task creation will be done internally by the user who created the item in the list.
Thank you for your understanding.

Start BPM process automatically
Hi ALL,
I have created a BPM process. I can start that process automatically from nwa -> Process controll.
But I want to run the process automatically by a certain time interval. How can I do it.
Can anybody help me.
Thanks in advance
ChandanHi Chandan,
I am not 100% sure if I understood you correctly, but with BPMN there comes a model element named Intermediate Timer Event which can be configured in two different ways using:
an offset (e.g. 1 hour after the timer has been created)
an expression (e.g. ProcessContext.aDateOneEntered + 1 day)
Nevertheless this still requires you to start the process by yourself, but it 'waits' at the timer until the offset or the expression has been reached. Thereby you can achieve that an interval is taken into account upon execution of the process.
More information about events can be found in the documentation:
Modeling Events

Approval Workflow - How to stop Approval Process after one Approve?
I currently have a approval workflow for announcements. There are two approvers assigned to the workflow with the serial setting. How do I end the approval work process after one of the two persons approve? Currently, if one person approves, I have a "In
Progress" status under the status column.
Here is the text-based editor view of my workflow:
f Current Item:Body not equals Current Item:PriorBody
Start Approval process on Current Item with User1; User2
Else if Current Item:PriorWorkflow equals Approved
Set workflow status to Approved
If Current Item:PriorWorkflow equals Rejected
Set workflow status to Rejected
Any tips are welcomed. I have found that Nintex released a workflow that addresses this, but I would like to work around that if possible.Hi David,
Yes, I created the workflow based on SharePoint 2013 Workflow platform. You can have a look at the screenshoot:
Thanks,
Eric

How to start the process.
I'm using CE 7.3 for BPM.
I would like to start process from simple menu not using Process Repository.
Does anyone know hot to start BPM process form menu ?
Do I have to develop webDynro applicatin that calls web-services for staring the process ?
Best regards,
Koji NagaiThank you for your reply.
I understand how to start BPM process by using BPM API.
But in my project, we need to minimize the developed objects.
To use BPM API means to develope programs right ?
If possible, I would to start BPM process without developing programs.
Is there any way to start BPM process from menu without add-on programs.

ctrierweilerHi,
I've had a go.
How should I interpret the results of list_requests:
owner_owr@ORKDEV01> @list_requests
====================
DEPLOYMENTS
====================
Audit ID Status Name Date Owner
2706 READY Deployment Fri Nov 11-NOV-05 10:49:59 OWNER_OWR

====================

====================
Er zijn geen rijen geselecteerd.
owner_owr@ORKDEV01>
Whilst a process flow is executing the last query will list executions, all of which have status BUSY:
owner_owr@ORKDEV01> @list_requests
====================
DEPLOYMENTS
====================
Audit ID Status Name Date Owner

395324 BUSY PF_ONB01:ONB 04-MEI-06 09:11:55 OWNER_OWR
owner_owr@ORKDEV01>
As an aside, I will attempt to get rid of the READY deployment and deployment unit using deactive_deployment.sql
Now, if I attempt to use deactivate_execution.sql on any of the executions with status BUSY I get:
owner_owr@ORKDEV01> @deactivate_execution
Voer waarde voor 1 in: 396136
declare
FOUT in regel 1:
.ORA-20003: The object is not in a valid state for the requested operation
ORA-06512: at "OWNER_OWR.WB_RTI_EXCEPTIONS", line 94
ORA-06512: at "OWNER_OWR.WB_RTI_EXECUTION", line 774
ORA-06512: at "OWNER_OWR.WB_RT_EXECUTION", line 90
ORA-06512: at line 4
owner_owr@ORKDEV01>
So all the seems to remain is to use abort_exec_request.sql
This does the job, but the script itself hangs.
I think it has to do with the l_stream_id not being checked again after the initial IF. I think it should probably be part of the loop condition as it is again reset in the do_acks inside the loop.
Cheers & thanks,

The process can be started from gobal creation activity in BPM 10g. I create an ADF or Java client application which can show the information of processes.
How to start a process from java? For example, a user can click a button and then, one or more processes can be started.
createProcessInstance in ADF is striked.
Thanks a lot.Yes, I use PAPI in ADF and check the document in the web. But the code likes following is striked by jdeveloper 10g.
session.createProcessInstance(processId, arguments)
What I want to know is the code snippet which replaces "session.createProcessInstance(processId, arguments)"

How to start approval procedure for a Document/Draft using DI API
Hi!
My code imports purchase orders from one non-B1 system to SAP B1 using DI API. The problem is that in B1 system there is an approval process configured and I need the newly created purchase order to enter this approval process.
Currently this is not done because approval procedure isn't triggered when creating documents using DI API.
I had an idea to create a draft of PO instead of the PO and then push this draft into approval process somehow. But I can't find a way how to tell DI API to start approval procedure for my draft/document.
Thank you for your replies!
JanUnfortunately there is no way to trigger the approval process for any object added through the DI API.
Your workaround of adding the documents as drafts is as close as you can really come but maybe you could extend it slightly - it will involve a UI API addon:
Make the addon mandatory, and add a UDF to the user table, for example "U_Approver" and a UDF to PO document, like "U_Approval"
- Set this U_Approval to yes when adding through DI and add as draft
- When user opens draft document in the application, check are they an approver (U_Approver = "Y")
- If they are not, and try to view/add a draft which is flagged as needing approval, block them from adding.
You could further expand your DI project to send a mail to the approver whenever a draft PO is added. -
How to start BPM Process in Netweaver CE 7.1 from backend

Does someone have an idea how to start the BPM Process or how to trigger start event from Backend?

Netweaver BPM process can be started in two ways:
1. Using NWA by instantiating a process
2. Using a Web service which trigers the Start event of the Business Process. You may find this useful:

How to Start Serv0 Process in ABAP+JAVA Stack without restaring
Hi
We have our SAP Systems in ABAPJAVA Stacks. Some times the server0 process does not show up at the AS/400 screen screen even though all other processes showup. Is there a way we can start Serv0 Process in ABAPJAVA Stack without restaring the entire system.
I tried the following. Loged in to the ABAP System and from transaction : SMICM
Menu Option
Administrator --> J2EE Instance(Local) --> Restart --> Yes
Administrator --> J2EE Cluster (Global) --> Restart --> Yes
but still the service did not show up.
Any Help in this reagrd would be greatly appreciated.

949-232-5622 (Cell)Hi Kishore,
first of all, there's probably a problem with server0. Generally it should come up automatically. And one can see JCONTROL and DISPATCHER, so there must be some problem with SERVER0. This could be a timeout for instance. One has to check dev_server0 and std_server0 files.
However, you can of course start/stop the Java part independently from ABAP using the transaction SMICM. That's the official way. You should be able to use "soft shutdown with restart" if you just want to restart the Java stack. If you have doubts that this process went fine, trigger a "soft shutdown without restart" and wait until all java processes are gone (JCONTROL, DISPATCHER, SERVER<number>'s and SDM). Then use "Restart Yes" to trigger a new start.
But, as I said, there's probably some issue in server0...
Best regards,

How to start Archiving process in production system.
Dear Experts,
As i was new to archiving process need help regarding this.as our client as 1.3 Tb of data with them,as they want to clean the unwanted data from the database.as they are using windows 2003 as server, oracle as database and using sapr/3 4.6 c.i want to know from where i have to start the process.i have read so many threads regarding this.they are helpful for me.i have some queries that i have to clarify.
1) I have found which table increasing more in database.,i have checked (DB15 ,SAARA).how to find this has to archive.
2) Data which is not important who has to delete that data.i heard data deletion is not basis work.
3) After deleting data in datbase without reorganising space will not be empty is this may be the cause??
4) is there any data loss in reoraganising??
5) is there any way to do reorganising with brtools in oracle.??
Please clarify me.
Regards,
Naveen NDear Naveen,
Data archiving is an inter-departmental activity.
The person responsible for each application (which he/she is using in SAP Solution to carry out the business process) should be involved in SAP Data Archiving Process/Activities.
The team should be grouped with the persons responsible for each application.
After the planned Analysis, The team grouped for executing the Data Archiving process produce the checklist for Archive Data (based on your business process and other dependent factors). They will provide the inputs (archiving objects) for Data Archiving requirements.
Moreover, As a part of Data Archiving process, you will have to delete the planned archive data from the actual Database. So, some spaces will become free in Database but all will be scattered in its respected Tablespace(s) in random manner. You will have to perform Database Reorganization to regain the free space.Because, The Data is stored in Database in form of Fragmented database objects (Tables/Indexes) in its respective Tablespace (s).Reorganization is generally performed to defragment these database objects. By doing so, one can improve performance and regain the space within tablespaces that was being unused due to fragmentation.
I hope this information will be helpful.
