Is UWL mandatory for Workflow ?

Hi ,
I am newbie to Worflow in EP.
I am able to see SBWP ( SAP Mail box ) in EP and some Work flow iviews (leave req,appraisal).
If i try to trigger Worflow from my leave req , i am getting the error msg " You are not one of the possible agents of the task" even tough it's a general task.
We haven't implemented KM / Collaboration.so is UWL mandatory for accessing WF in Portal ?
Rgds,
J

hi,
As far as i think u need to implement UWL for accessing workflow in portal. Without UWL u will be able to see the workflow iviews but u won't be able to do any work on that.
For details pliz check out the links.
Think outside the box - enhance  processes with Universal Worklist Action Handlers!
Create new UI's for existing workflow tasks with ABAP Web Dynpro and Universal Worklist!

  • Necessary Roles/authorizations required to Userid for workflow assignment.

    Hi all,
    Am working on a Custom workflow assignment.
    This is the first time, customer is working on workflows in this system.
    Henceforth, we need to do basic setup/configuration, before starting actual work.
    I want to know, what all Roles/authorizations are required for my userid throughout the assignment.
    Currently, we have got,

  • Developing 3rd party UWL Connectors for People soft system or other Java sy

    Hi Everyone
    We have one requirement that is u201CDeveloping 3rd party UWL Connectors for People soft system or other Java systemu201D and get the workflows from those system and display in portal though UWL.
    We used u201CUWL Custom Connector APIu201D and written all the required methods.
    Could any one help us u201CWhere can we specify the 3rd party system details?u201D
    If possible please send some sample coding for it.
    Thanks in advance
    Sat

    Hi Satya!
    Like the default SAP backend UWL connectory your 3rd-party connector should make use of a PCD System Object. This system is a mere java component with nothing more than a portalapp.xml defining all the system properties.
    Create a system in the portal system landscape based on the System PAR you depoyed.
    For every UWL connector you create in portal you define a system alias. This alias has to match the one of your new system object.
    And now for the sad part: I didn't find any clue yet about how to access the system from a custom UWL connector. The system alias is available in the method getItems(), but no hint whatsoever how to get the system object to the alias.
    I'm still investigating this, since i'm exactly at this point.

  • WBS element field mandatory for specific sales order

    Hi Friends,
    I want to make the WBS element field in sale order line item to be mandatory for a specific sales order type. I am not able to add this field in incompletion log also. So can anyone let me know the solution for this.
    Ratna

    Hi,
    As solution suggest above is correct use VBAP table and Field is PS_PSP_PNR into ur incompletion log and assign this procedure to ur Item category. And If u want to WBS element check at header level the use VBAK table and field PS_PSP_PNR and assign this incompletion log to ur sales document type.
    Once more setting is required to stop the order from saving if incompletion check is unsucessful, for that you need to check a checkbox named "Incomplete. Message" in VOV8 tcode, for ur perticular sales document types.
    Hope this will resolve ur problem.

  • How can I see that a file has been sent for workflow?

    How can I see that a file has been sent for workflow?
    During the workflow phase, the file is locked for workflow. But when the file has been approved (or denied) it will have the same status as it did before the workflow process (unless you trigger the workflow by changing its location).
    You can see the workflow history in the "My Request" view, but this way of determining whether a file has been approved seems complicated.
    Best regards

    Hi,
    Thanks for the transaction code, but my question is not answered yet.
    For example, I use STMS_IMPORT in the Development environement to see the list of the transport that has been made in that environement.
    I now have a list of these transports, with a status. But I wanna know if that transport that has been created in the Development environement has been moved to the Sandbox environement.
    STMS_IMPORT shows me only the list of transports that has been created in that environement. It doesn't tell me if a transport in DVL has been moved in the QAS, SANDBOX or PRODUCTION environment.
    Thanks again,
    Julien

  • Error Message FMBAS202 Year of cash effectivity mandatory for budget cat 9G

    Hi all,
    I activated BCS and use update profile 000350 (Separate PB/CB budget lines; standard), we tried to post simple FI posting and the error come up
    ==============================================================
    Year of cash effectivity mandatory for budget category 9G
    Message no. FMBAS202
    Diagnosis
    The FM update profile does not support the year of cash effectivity for commitment/actual values (posting ledger 9B). However, the year of cash effectivity is mandatory in BCS budgeting for budget category 9G and FM area 0100: the minimum value in this case is 2009.
    System Response
    Processing of the commitment/actual data record stops.
    Procedure
    Deactivate the year of cash effectivity for the corresponding budget category 9G and FM area 0100 in the IMG activity Choose Budget Category.
    ===============================================================
    So I click the link and it goes to Define Budget Category screen where we assign budget category (9G) and time horizon (1) to a FM area, but not mention of deactivating year of cash activity.
    My question is:
    1. Where is the button to deactivate the year of cash effectivity?
    2. What's the difference between budget category 9B and 9G? Both are Commitment Budget.
    3. I dont remember assigning budget category 9B to an FM area. Where is the setting?
    Thanks

    Hi,
    When you go to IMG - Public Sector Management - Funds Management Government - Budget Control System (BCS) - BCS Budgeting - Basic Settings - Definition of Budget Data - Choose Budget Category, what's the settings for 'Time horizon' field? It should be blank for 9G(commitment), if you don't work with cash effectivity.
    9B is posting ledger, while 9G is budget ledger. You don't have to assign 9A/9B to FM area.

    It will not allow to create PO with out maintaoning tax code.
    If u want to do tax code as mandatory in MIRO
    Then Go to OLMRLIST and make changes accordingly.

  • Best practice for workflow triggering from Web Dynpro UI

    Hello, workflow community!
    I'm working on a task which allow to trigger the workflow by clicking a button in Web Dynpro UI. As always, there are multiple ways to do that, for instance, to use SAP Workflow API (SAP_WAPI_START_WORKFLOW) or to raise an event upon the button click, which will be caught by workflow template.
    In my opinion, the optimal solution is to call FM, which will call ABAP-class, raising an event, which, in turn, will be caught by workflow template. In this case, FM will service kind of wrapper, where we can implement some additional checks if needed.
    But the question is what approach is the best practice — to raise an event or use SAP_WAPI_*?
    Thanks.

    let combine, use SAP_WAPI_CREATE_EVENT
    usually I would not recommend creating a workflow directly (SAP_WAPI_START_WORKFLOW) since when I look for workflows in a system I usually start from SWE2 (the event linkage) which uses events so the workflow you start by SAP_WAPI_START_WORKFLOW will not be seen there, also SWE2 gives you better control for starting the workflow, you can easily deactivate an event linkage. finding where you called the workflow by SAP_WAPI_START_WORKFLOW will be more difficult and deactivation will require a code change.
    so use events, and start them by SAP_WAPI_CREATE_EVENT
    Also pay attention that you have a check function module option in SWE2.

    Hi Ranjan,
    Solution Manager is not mandatory for SRM 7 implementation.
    Only thing is Solution Manager contains best pratices for Project implementation e.g AS is process , to be process, blue print etc.
    It is just a guilde. All things might not be  required for your project.
    We did it without solution Manager except that we used it for generating installation key & for maintainance opt.

  • Material Number mandatory for PR exceptP for Service Purchase Requisition

    Hi All,
         Our client's new requirement is we need to give material number mandatory for Purchase Requisition. But it should not affect for Service Purchase Requisition (as we don't have material number with material type DIEN. Till now, we were using Acc Assignment Category K and Item Category D with only Short Text description). We have separate document type for Service Purchase Requisition(ZSRV).
        In order to make Material number mandatory, in PR, we need to give in "Define Screen Layout  at Document Level for PR",right? Is there any way to give, "Material Number Mandatory at Document Type Level"?
    Please suggest.
    Regards,

    hi sridhar,
      Thank you for your answer. So as you said, there is no possibility to make material number as mandatory at DOCUMENT TYPE level through Customzining, right?

  • 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.

    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.

  • Edit option not enabled for workflow content from within Content Presenter in Webcenter Spaces

    I have a webcenter spaces portal page with a content presenter displaying a html page using the default out of the box template. The html page is located in webcenter content / UCM under a folder on which the " All Reviewer" seeded workflow is enabled. The issue i am seeing is when the file is in workflow the edit option is not being enabled even though the reviewer should be able to edit/approve the content in this step. The other functions like workflow approve or reject and switching between workflow version and published version are all enabled. Also when rejected the content does not show edit option from the content presenter (cntrl-C option) for the original author to make any updates.
    What would need to be done to enable editing from within the content presenter for workflow content?
    Thanks for your help

    Hi Sreedhar
    We are using WCP 11.1.1.8.5
    To recreate the issue
    1)  Login to WCC Portal: Spaces as admin user , create a New Page under a webcenter spaces portal
    2)  Under the space , Pages Section , select the page and click edit
    3) In Design mode , choose Content Management and Add Document Explorer and Add Content Presenter on the page
    4)  The Document Explorer will default to the Current Space/portal directory under MyWebcenterSpaces in UCM
    5) Create a directory "content" under the Portal space using the document explorer.
    6) Right Click on Content folder and choose details. In Details view , go to File->workflow settings and pick a seeded workflow -> MyWCSAllReviewer. Add a user as workflow approver
    7) After workflow is enabled on this folder upload a basic html page with simple text into this folder
    8) Now in the design mode choose edit in the content presenter and select the "single content view" with default template to display an Image or HTML. Click browse and select the html that was added to workflow
    9) Save the Page and view the portal. Workflow should now be enabled for any content changes to that html page.
    10) Click Cntrl-shift-c in portal/space as an authenticated user with edit access to content and make an edit to content , this will trigger worklow . The author currently will see edit option get disabled once content enters workflow
    11)  Login as approver to the portal and cntrl-shift-C to the portal and workflow options(approve and reject) are enabled but the edit option is not. If you reject content , the author should be able to edit content in the content presenter mode, this also is not available. The issue is the content is now no longer available for editing from wthin content presenter if it is in workflow to either the approver or the original author depending on workflow step. If you check the same content under the document explorer the option to edit is enabled. Is this a bug /issue with content Presenter or some option needs enabled?

    Hi All,
    We have a scheduled task which sends Reminder mails for workflow approval which has been pending for more than 5 days.
    Recently I created new workflow definitions and reminder task stopped sending mails.
    I checked task and it has IapiTaskIfc Class com.frictionless.custom.wkfreminder.sendWorkflowReminder.
    How to check this class and do i need to make changes somewhere else to send reminder mails?

    Hi Prabhat,
    I am working on creating a scheduled task for sending reminder emails. I need help on IapiTaskIfc Class com.frictionless.custom.wkfreminder.sendWorkflowReminder. Can you please share sendWorkflowReminder class to me, so that I can get idea about the code written for sending reminder emails? It would be great help.
    To check the class, you need to get the jar from server and decompile it. You can get some idea by looking at the java class file then.
