Integration of approval process via Blackberry mobile device

Hi ,
   We are having SAP Change request management to handle the transport through all our production system.In the Change requst management we have implimented digital signature for approving the document which needs to be move to production system .for this we have something called Gatekeeprt as partner function when the changes are successfully reach into the test system then the automatic mail trigger is done to the gatekeeper with all the corresponding information about the document After that gatekeeper needs to Login in the Solution manager system and do the approval with digital signature.
after that the user status automatically changed to 'released for import ' that means its ready to import into the production system and the changes are authorized.
Now we want to do the approval procedure from the Blackbeery mobile itself, bcoz all the mail trigger from the Change request manager for approval of document is replicated in the blackberry device . can we have some interface which can send the approval request to solution manager system from blackberry device  , so that gateekeper wil not required to login into system each time for each document.
Can anyone already designed such type of interface wih any system or can anyone provide some good idea to start with this interface.
All suggestion are welcomed..
Thanks

Hi Julien,
The task type of the work item is 'W' and task_id is TS*.
As I told previously, the scenario here is of Releasing/Rejecting a PR.
The  present scenario here is, the approver gets the workitem in his MS outlook inbox, with a Link for approval.
When he/she clicks on the link, it navigates to the tcode me54n of the sap system, where the approver has to take a decision of releasing or rejecting the PR.
So, I dont think the BAPI SAP_WAPI_DECISION_COMPLETE will be of help to me because the decision here is taken in the transaction me54n and not on the workitem itself.
But now, when i configure this scenario on a blackberry, the approver should be able to take the decision of Releasing/ Rejecting the PR on his blackberry itself(without going to the transaction me54n).
Can you please help me on this?
Thanks
Sunil

  • Need input on Approval Process via hand held devices

    Hi All,
    Need inputs on the given scenario. We have implemented Quotation Management (VA21) for our client. The quotation goes through various levels of approval (or decline) via the Workflow below it is finally given to the customer.
    Users usually logs into SAP and approves (or decline) the quotation via the SAP Inbox. We have designed multiple decision process on the work item in the inbox. Alternatively users can also log in to Enterprise portal, which has been designed for them, to act on the quotation. Users are notified in their outlook mail about action that needs to be taken on the quotation.
    Now user wants to have the decision process to be implemeted as such that they can take action (approve/reject) via hand held devices (viz Blackberry). We are using ECC 6 and also have Enterprise Portal EP 7EHP1. Owing to cost constraint, client cannot implement SAP CRM Solution.
    If anyone of you has implemented such methodolgies or have worked on such solutions request you to get back to me with details regards to the timelines and cost and the desired process.
    Regards,
    Jayant

    You could acquire software (e.g. 3i Mobile Workplace or similar) that could handle the decision processing with little effort.
    If you wish to build a solution then the time/cost will depend on the complexity of the task visualization. You can create a Java client or use a simple HTML based web app.
    The decision task can be visualized using a custom BSP or WebDynpro application. Communication with the BlackBerry could be via RIM push or you could just send an email with a link to your approval application.
    The app would need to reserve the workitem and then complete the decision using the appropriate SAP_WAPI* RFC's.
    Bear in mind that all the above assumes you are distributing the approval tasks within your corporate network supported by the BlackBerry Enterprise Server and MDS.
    One of the bigger issues when using web apps is authentication. By default a web app requires the user to log on using their SAP user ID and password. Using a network user ID and password or using silent authentication is possible but requires more effort.

  • Approval process in blackberry

    Hi
    I have a requirement in Blackberry Approval process.
    A Corporation currently has SAP Workflow and they are currently using it to send PR items via Outlook to the approver of these PRs. The approver then gets an email which contains a link to the Portal where he/she approves or rejects the PR.
    Now, along with the email to the approver, the approver should also get the PRs on his/her Blackberry and should be able to approve or reject the PRs from the Blackberry Device itself.
    The UIs for blackberry haveto be developed using webdynpro for Java.
    I need to know how do I link the blackberry webdynpro application to workflow?
    How fo I get the WorkItems to the blackberry device?
    I would be grateful if anybody could guide me in this.

  • PR Approval Process on Blackberry

    Hi

    Now, along with the email to the approver, the approver should also get the PRs on his/her Blackberry and should be able to approve or reject the PRs from the Blackberry Device itself.
    I found from this forum that I should use "SAPI_WAPI*" BAPIs for my requirement.
    I explored all the "SAPI_WAPI* " BAPIs and narrowed down on SAP_WAPI_CREATE_WORKLIST to get all the work items for a particular user.
    Is this the right BAPI??
    Now for approval or rejection of this work item, I found the BAPI - SAPI_WAPI_DECISION_COMPLETE.
    But when i give the workitem id for PR release to the above BAPI, it says " the workitem <Workitem no> is not a user decision".
    I would be greatful if u could help me in this??
    Which is the right BAPI for Approval/Rejection of PR release work item??
    I would be grateful if anybody could guide me in this.
    Thanks and regards.

  • EP Guided Procedure via Mobile Devices

    Hello,
    We are on EP7.0 and are implementing a PO approval workflow via Guided Procedure using Visual Composer.
    This workflow can have one or more approval levels.
    We are setting up email notifications for the various approval steps such that cooresponding approvers can approve through Microsoft Outlook Emails.
    However there is also a requirement for approvers to be able to approve via their Mobile devices like Blackberry, Apple iPhone etc.
    What is the best way to go about doing this?
    regards,
    Atul

    Hi Atul,
    You can use the Web approach as stated in the previous posts or you can develop your own "native" application for BlackBerry using the [Guided Procedures (GP) API |http://help.sap.com/javadocs/NW04S/current/gp/index.html].
    You could for instance create SOAP or REST Web Services and then consume theses Web Services with the mobile client.

  • Strange Mobile device tried to connect to my iMac via Bluetooth! Should I be concerned?

    I woke up this morning with a pop-up message saying that a mobile device tried to pair with my system but was rejected most likely from an incorrect password. I've always had "bluetooth" enabled. Never used it though, I have a wired mouse and keyboard. I never thought about possible threats occuring from this until now. I originally had all default settings turned on for bluetooth but no sharing enabled. I clicked off "discoverable" and turned bluetooth off altogether. My concern is that I am seeing a "T-Mobile myTouch Q" Smartphone in the list. I don't own this type of phone. I've never had a t-mobile phone or know anybody who does. I tried to "browse" the device but I get an error. I am unable to remove the device from my list.
    It doesn't appear to be connect or ever have been connected to my knownledge but I would like it taken off.
    Is there any way somebody can hack your iMac via a mobile device? I went on a researching rampage this morning but am unsure of what to think at this point. If bluetooth only operates up to 30 feet of range, who could possibly have wanted to connect at 4-5 am in the morning? Also, if they were paired, exacly what information can they gain from being paired via bluetooth to a mobile device?
    Should I be concerned about this? I have Mac firewall enabled in stealth mode. Have Sophos installed and up to date and running. All sharing is turned off. What else can I do and how can I remove this device from the list so I can use bluetooth in the near future without any worries?
    Thanks for any help!

    Bluetooth is very limited, in range (20 to 40ft on a good day)....
    The Bluetooth on my wife's iPad, before I turned it off, put out a signal much further than that. Out of curiosity, I took it down to the lobby of our building, easily a hundred feet or more--just guessing--through one floor and a number of walls. It was still getting a healthy signal there. Maybe the Mac's Bluetooth isn't so powerful. Probably depends on the device being used. I know if I move my mouse not far away from the Mac the connection is quickly lost.
    That is an extraordinary connection distance for BlueTooth, did you happen to investigate the data rate at that range?
    This really only applies to older Blutooth devices (so should exclude an iPad)
    Many USB Bluetooth adapters or "dongles" are available, some of which also include an IrDA adapter. Older (pre-2003) Bluetooth dongles, however, have limited capabilities, offering only the Bluetooth Enumerator and a less-powerful Bluetooth Radio incarnation.[citation needed] Such devices can link computers with Bluetooth with a distance of 100 meters, but they do not offer as many services as modern adapters do.[clarification needed]
    The spec for Bluetooth is a bit vague but here is some general info.
    But wireless is a bit like playing Roulette

  • Deploy Symantec certificate profiles to mobile devices using Microsoft Intune to manage company resources like WiFi

    We are planning to deploy Symantec certificate profiles to Mobile devices to manage company resource like WiFi. I've seen documentation on Technet and the post here http://ronnydejong.com/2014/12/15/part-1-deploy-certificates-to-mobile-devices-using-microsoft-intune-ndes-overview/ that
    we need to install Intune NDES connector which needs to be installed on NDES server. These docs are true when we are using Microsoft PKI.
    Here, we're planning to use Symantec cloud PKI to deploy the certificates to mobile devices. So, I would like to know which are the required on-premises components ? NPS, NDES  or something else? Any documentation URL would be helpful ;) We're in planning
    face hence the question in the forum.

    Thank you Jason for the reply !
    Sorry for stupid questions !
    Does that mean, NDES is needed only for initial enrollment process of a mobile device? We don't need it deploying Symantec certificate profiles to manage company resources like WiFi VPN etc... Or I'm totally lost here? 
    My understanding is : Mobile devices will get enrolled to Intune and that device will become a managed device. Now, the mobile device needs to get a connectivity to company resources like VPN or WiFi and for the we may need to deploy certificate profiles.
    Isn't it ? So, you were saying for this process we don't need to have NDES. (or I'm wrong here as well).
    If so, we'll be deploying a public certificate to all the devices via certificate profile deployment and the devices need to get connected with issuing authority to get a device specific private key before connecting to WiFi or VPN?

  • Disabled User, Mobile-Device (Active Sync) still has Access 24h after disabling Account

    Hello, 
    i encountered following issue:
    I disabled an User in AD, but the mobile devices of the corresponding User still had access even 24h after disabling the account (iphone 5s, Blackberry Q10). My predecessor was known to abuse some access rights (suspicious gpos, phantom users with way to
    many rights, private folder access...).
    Our System: Windows 2008 R2 + Exchange 2010 SP3
    Are there any hidden settings (in Exchange powershell, ADSI-Settings etc...) to extend the access-validity of mobile devices?
    Or is this a normal behaviour?
    Thank you and best regards, 
    Georg

    The best way to stop a user from accessing their email via a mobile device when the account is going to be disabled is to go to their account and remove Active Sync from their mailbox.  To do so, go to Recipient Configuration, Mailboxes, properties
    of the user, Mailbox Features and disable Exchange ActiveSync.  then disable the user.  Force Active Directory replication as well. Then the disabled user should no longer have access.   You can even remove device partnerships or wipe their
    device as well.

  • Working with files on mobile devices

    Hi everybody,
    at the moment we are running a Vibe 3.4 server which is used most of the time by normal pc clients with the users using the browser or the Vibe desktop client to connect. Now we are getting a tablet project using Vibe more via mobile access (Android based) . The Problem now is, I can do many things with my mobile Vibe access or the Vibe App but I havent figured out how to work with my files stored in Vibe while accessing them via a mobile device.
    Is there any possibility to open and work with the files/attachments?
    If no, is this a planned feature for the future?
    Any help, hint or trick is is greatly appreciated

  • Searching mailbox with mobile device

    Hi.
    A user is trying to search his mailbox with his mobile device. The phone is configured to only sync 3 days back so he "continues" the search on the server with the phone. The problem is that the phone only finds content which is 2 months old or
    newer.
    I must add that earlier today he reported that search with Outlook in online mode didn't work either, so I deleted the index on the server and it then rebuild itself. Outlook search now wit actually also was healthy (the status showed healthy) before
    I deleted it but for some reason it didn't work.
    So the Outlook problem is fixed but the phone search still doesn't Work. Anyone know if active sync uses the exact same index as Outlook in online mode does? Or does active sync hold som cached search info or does it seach in some other way?
    Best Regards
    Thomas

    There is an option on the mobile device to continue search on server, so your statement that it only shows hits for what's been synced is not true.
    But further testing in Outlook shows me that there is something wrong with the indexing on the server. The database tells me that the index is healthy, but when I delete the index and let the server create a new one, the size changes for the new
    index. Not a few MB but 1.5GB... this tells me that something is not quite right with the indexing of the database.
    Also a funny thing is that when I search for the same keywords in subject on an Android device and an Ios device, the oldest thing I find on the Ios device is actually older than the oldest thing I find on the Android device. So there
    seems to be a limit in how old the items searched with the Android device (Sony deivce) can be......at least that's what my testing shows. Even when the search is done on the server via the mobile device.
    So I think I can conclude to Things. Mobile devices uses different limits on age, even when using the server index and there must be something wrong wit the indexing of the database, even though the database tells me that the indexing is healthy.
