How to use the SAP calendar in Workflow deadline time.

Hi
Im setting a deadline time (LatestEnd, LatestStart) as an expression for some tasks in several workflows, but theres an issue when this time is reached on holiday or weekend because the deadline for the Workflow have to be moved to the next working day, does anybody knows how can I set it up without ABAP programming, just workflow tools or WF functions?.
I already made a function to make this calculation but I'd like to know if this can be done directly by SAP (workflow) standard.
Thanks a lot
Regards
Felipe Uribe

Try to make use of the following Function module:
DATE_CONVERT_TO_FACTORYDATE
FACTORYDATE_CONVERT_TO_DATE
LAST_FACTORYDATE_GET
In your attribute determination.
Thanks

How to use the portal Calendar

Hi,
I want to post a calendar of events for my portal users and I'm looking for documentations or tutorial in using the portal calendar feature.
Thanks,
Leonard

hi leonard,
there are 2 samples in the PDK for a lotus notes calendar portlet and a microsoft exchange calendar portlet. you can access them at portalcenter.oracle.com - PDK - Samples.
another possibility would be to use the calendar portlet that is provided by the portlet builder. in you portal go to the navigator - providers - locally built providers - example applications: there you find a sample of a calendar portlet. you can create a new one by clicking on Create New...Calendar
another possibiliy is to look at the portlets from our partners: on portalcenter click on Portal Catalog - Search the Portal catalog - type in 'calendar' as search word and you get back a list of available calendar portlets.
thanks,
christian

How to use the method calendar.getTimeInMillis() and setTimeInMillis(bb)

I have met some problems in writing my programme,I want to know what the time is after every 20 minutes so have written some codes as below ,but the compilar warned me that there are some errors in them ,and I don't know how to use them correctly ,can you help me?
Thank you very much!
the code is:
begin=datime+" 00:00:00";
Calendar calendar=Calendar.getInstance();
DateFormat df = DateFormat.getDateInstance();
Date start=df.parse(begin);
calendar.setTime(start);
long aa=calendar.getTimeInMillis();
calendar.setTimeInMillis(aa);

Hopefully the following snippet of code will help you out (note that the Date class seems more appropriate for what you need to do):
import java.util.*;
import java.text.*;
      String begin="00:00:00";
      SimpleDateFormat df = new SimpleDateFormat("HH:mm:ss");
      df.setTimeZone(TimeZone.getTimeZone("GMT"));
      Date start=new Date();
      try {
         start=df.parse(begin);
      } catch (Throwable e) {
         System.out.println("Invalid time format");
      long aa=start.getTime();   // to get the time in milliseconds
      System.out.println(aa);    // just to see what the answer is (should be zero)
      start.setTime(aa);         // to set the time in milliseconds

ICal on iPad: please explain how to use the duplicate calendars

I am traveling with my iPad and cannot get on my computer. I want to add calendar events that will sync to MMe. I have checked off the calendars for @me.com. Sometimes the iPad duplicate switches on. I assume that i have this so i can see if i need to what is really on the iPad ND what is really on mobile me in case i don't have wi fi access. However Apple does not explain to us why so that we could understand our own systems. We are left to guess and stab in the dark. I want to add items that will go over to mobile me and to my phone. Do i add them in to the calendar that is on the ipad and then it will automatically sync the events?
I just edited some items that had previously been synced to mobile me. Those items are showing up synced to my phone so i know they went to mobile me. However i added some new items that went into the calendar on my iPad and those are not syncing (I wonder why apple has this odd system set up?)
So is there something i don't know about entering events in my iPad? Why would there be a dublicTe calendar kept that does not sync to the rest?
Please help! I can't go to my computer to reset hints for now i just have to know how to input events correctly into iPad so they will sync to mobile me and my phone. I have previously fine through resetting hints with mobile me support so it all should be set up correctly.
Thanks

HT204053 How do I set up a second Apple ID? Our office wants to use the iCloud calendar, but I don't want to use my personal Apple ID.

How do I set up a second Apple ID to use iCloud? My office is going to use the iCloud calendar on our PCs and I don't want to use my personal ID. Thanks for any suggestions.

You really don't want to do that, operate an iPad with 2 different ID's.
I'm presuming you have a work iPad and you want to put some non work bought apps on it. You will have issues, like half the iPad not working while the other half does.
Probably not something you want to explain to your IT department.

How to use Start Task Group for Workflow Interface

Hi all,
anyone who can tell me how to use the Interface IFWFTSKGRP (Start Task Group for Workflow Interface)?
As far as I understood the documentation it can be used to restrict the selection of workflows that can be started in the Generic Object Services. But the question is how to implement it.
Best regards,
Carsten
Edited by: Carsten Drewes on Jun 10, 2009 10:30 AM

Hi, Carsten,
(probably it's a bit too late to post an answer after 3 years , but I'll post it in case someone else needs it)
You should implement GetTaskGroup method.
The code should return id of the task group (otype TG, mantained in PFTC) that holds the list of workflow definitions.
Here is a sample implementation. It's taken from FORMABSENC business object. It belongs to SAP demo workflow "Notification of Absence". I suppose it should be present in most systems and you can see it in action.
begin_method gettaskgroup changing container.
DATA: taskgroup LIKE rhobjects-object.
*- set task group
taskgroup = 'TG70000023'.
*- set result
swc_set_element container result taskgroup.
end_method.

Hi
Workflow automates the steps and activities in a business process according to predefined procedures and rules.
Workflow presents information and documents to the appropriate knowledge worker or agent (another entity such as a program) to make a decision or perform an activity.
Workflow tracks each and every step in the process flow and maintains an ongoing status.
Workflow also collects and reports all of the metrics associated with the execution and completion of the process.

How to Use the same iview for both KM End User and the KM Administrator

Hi friends,
*This is my scenario :* How to Use the same iview for both KM End User and the KM Administrator but with different Context
Menu Options.
i followed these steps but im getting same context menu for both KM End User and the KM Administrator .
Assign the role Content Administrator to the user km_admin. This is needed so that km_admin can change
the presentation settings for the KM Folder u201EReports_kmFolder‟.
Now, login with user km_admin. Navigate to the Km Folder reports_kmFolder through Content Administration
-> Km Content. Click on Details link of the folder reports_kmFolder.
Go To Settings -> Presentation. Click on the tab u201ESettings for You‟-> Click on button u201ESelect Profile‟.
Select the radio button corresponding to u201Elayout Set‟, and choose u201EConsumerExplorer‟ from the dropdown.
Click u201EOK‟.
Select both the check boxes corresponding to Items Affected as shown above, and click u201ESave‟
Now, remove the u201ESuper Administrator‟ role from the user km_admin and login with this user.
How rto resolve this????
Regards,
Prasad.

Hello Prasad,
Most likely the user km_admin still has system principal roles assigned, even though you removed the Super Admin role, you should check that this user doesn't have any other admin roles, otherwise it will be considered a System Principal user and will therefore still have access to all content. For more information see http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/en/19/56f28fbd4e11d5993b00508b6b8b11/frameset.htm
Try creating a new user with just read access to the content and you should see that it will not be able to make any changes etc.
Regards,
Lorcan.

How to use the CMS functionality in Sun Portal Server 7.2

Hi All,
How to use the CMS functionality using the ccd.war(Portlet) which is available in the library as i could add it to my channel but not able to show the functionality as it is showing the error msg "You are currently not logged in. Please login." should I create userid and there respective roles inorder to use the CMS functionality.
Has any one used this as I could this in glass fish server.
Any Input is appreciated.
Thanks & regards
Srikanth

Have a look at the "*Roles*" section of the portal server 7.2 content management system guide
http://docs.sun.com/source/820-4275/index.html . You can also look at [project mirage|https://mirage.dev.java.net] for some screencasts
Alternatively,
1. ccd.war has 3 portlets in it:
(a) custom content definition portlet
(b) custom content portlet
(c) workflow portlet
2. Inorder to work with these portlets, user needs to be in anyone of the below roles:
(a)Consumer (b) Editor (c) Approver (d) Administrator (e) Submitter (f) Contributor (g) Publisher
3. By default ccd.war gets deployed using a default roles file (/var/opt/SUNWportal/tmp/ccd.roles.properties)
Note: In windows, you may not find this file
4. Access the portlets as a user in any of the role mentioned in the ccd.roles.properties
(OR)
you can use a new roles file which has mapping to your custom roles. For this , undeploy existing ccd.war and deploy again with a new roles.properties file
Hope this helps!
