Launching webdynpro ABAP application from workflow task (without UWL)

Hello,
How can i start webdynpro ABAP application from workflow without portal?
Workflow and webdynpro ABAP are located on the same system.
I assume it must be possible without transaction SWFVISU.
thanks
Regards
Paul

First you need to define a external service then you have to generate a task from this external service and then you need to include this task id in you workflow for a ACTIVITY step then this step can be either background or can be assigned to any agent
you have to make use the below two Txn
WF_HANDCUST and WF_EXTSRV

Login pop-up when launching Webdynpro ABAP application from SAP Inbox

Hello All,
We have configured our workflow to trigger WD ABAP application from SAP Inbox.
However when we launch the workitem from SAP Inbox, we are getting a login pop-up screen in IE which prompts us to enter SAP password.
Can you please help how can we avoid getting that login screen and how the WD ABAP application can single sign on from SAP GUI to IE for that user-id.
Appreciate all your help.
Regards,
Samta.

Hi Samta,
You can configure User(RFC) and password for your webdynpro appl'n using SICF tcode.
Path : /default_host/sap/bc/webdynpro/sap/(your wdp appln)

Open Webdynpro ABAP application from UWL

Hello Experts,
The requirement is we need to open the Custom Webdynpro ABAP application when the user clicks on the UWL tasks instead of ITS based screen.
We have created a custom workflow task. Then we maintained the task entry with Webdynpro ABAP application name in SWFVISU transaction.
After re-registering the UWL connector in Portal I could not find the Task ID in UWL definition. In UWL the task item is visible but could not open the task because the UWL could not identify the task no for this.
Am I missing something in the above steps?
Kindly help.
Kind Regards,

Anybody have an idea how to debug a WebDynpro application from portal.
Thanks,

Hi
Few links to check:
External debugging is not working
Re: Debugging Abap webdynpro appln
Re: Unable to Debug WD ABAP application
Dedug is not working in Production Server.
a) Check on number of R/3 sessions opened at a time.
b) Check that user ID configured in portal using System Mapping Under 'Delegate User Administration' is the same user for which you are setting external breakpoint in backend system.

Accessing WebDynpro ABAP application from external network

Hi All,
I have developed one application in webdynpro ABAP.
Now my requirement in to access this application through internet.
I dont want to use portal to run application.
Is it possible to access through internet ?

You can access the webdynpro application via internet with the help of SAP Web Dispatcher. Basis team will install the web dispatcher and then machine can put into a DMZ area which in turn can be opened to Internet with necessary controls.

FPM Navigation - asking for Log on when calling WebDynpro ABAP Application

Hi Experts,
I want to call a Non FPM based WebDynpro ABAP Application from a FPM Component.
I have followed the method showed in the following thread by Rajkumar to call WebDynpro Application using URL.
[Launch transaction without launchpad|Re: Launch transaction without launchpad]
I could successfully call my WebDynpro ABAP application using this approach,
However when the application opens in new Browser , it asks for log on again.
Can anyone help me to avoid this log in screen.
P.S. --> Both the applications are in the same server.

Attach Interactive Forum to Workflow from a Webdynpro ABAP application

I have a webdynpro ABAP application which has an Interactive form. After the user enters the form and clicks on 'Submit', I trigger a workflow for Approval. My requirement is to add this same form as an attachment to the workflow. I know I can do this by adding the Fileupload UI element and letting the user browse to the file after saving it. But I want to attach it directly without the user having to save the form to Desktop first.
I tried passing the pdf_source(XSTRING) to the container and it does attaches a pdf to the workflow but when I open it, the form is blank and user entered values are missing.
Please respond only if you know the solution and don't send me links to other forums on SDN, I have read them all.

sharing the solution always helps some or the other person seeking similar answers to their problems. It would be good to share your solution in this open community. It helps.

Webdynpro abap application attached to SWFVISU is tested from se80

hi,
when webdynpro ABAP application is attached to workitem in SWFVISU the the workitem id is passed via url when calling the application. (though the url seen in the application in se80 in the webdynrpo abap component does not have workitem id paramter)
[link1|http://forums.sdn.sap.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1209159]

I am running this application from se80 - application - right click - test. (this is required to troubleshoot one of the issues.)
at this time it does not ask for workitem id and directly runs the application . It picks the same workitem id everytime. I tried doing this with a couple of different user ids. but I cant figure out from where it picks this particular workitem id. the status of this workitem is complete in the system.
thanks
bhakti

Hi-
(though the url seen in the application in se80 in the webdynrpo abap component does not have workitem id paramter)
It is required to have a parameter WI_ID (as an Application parameter) in your WDA. And via this Application parameter WDA will receive the workitem id, when the task is exceuted from UWL (provided configuration is done in swfvisu)
Could you confirm, there is no Application parameter (WI_ID) in your WDA?
It picks the same workitem id everytime. I tried doing this with a couple of different user ids. but I cant figure out from where it picks this particular workitem id
If you defined WI_ID in Application parameter and there is an option to provide value and it seems, you have defined some value over there or other way might be in your method (inbound plug), you may gave default value to WI_ID in the parameter
If your application is working properly from UWL and for testing purpose, you could put a breakpoint and change the workitem id, when executing from se80

Calling Portal iView from a WebdynPro ABAP application

Hi ,
I have a requirement where I need to call an iView in my portal from the Webdynpro application also existing in the portal.
Can anyone provide me the method with source code( if possible ) to call an iView existing in the portal from the WebDynPro ABAP application.
Best Regards
Sid

Hi Siddharth,
Well, I think you can go for Portal Navigation concept.
Please check the required source code in WDR_TEST_PORTAL_NAV Web Dynpro component. That will illustrate both Page based Navigation and Object based Navigation.
Hope that should solve your problem.

Calling Webdynpro Java Application from Webdynpro ABAP Application.

Hi,
We have developed one Application using Webdynpro Java and I m in need to call the Webdynpro Java application from Webdynpro ABAP.
Require Suggestions to acheive this.
Thanks In advance.
Reg,
Ajay.

Dear Ajay,
Assuming that both your applications WDA & WDJ are in the portal & you don't have to pass any parameters to the WDJ application.
Write the following code on the action where you would call the WDJ application.
DATA:
        lr_compcontroller TYPE REF TO ig_componentcontroller,
        l_component TYPE REF TO if_wd_component ,
        lr_port_manager TYPE REF TO if_wd_portal_integration ,
        wa_navigation TYPE navigation.
lr_compcontroller =   wd_this->get_componentcontroller_ctr( ).
l_component = lr_compcontroller->wd_get_api( ).
lr_port_manager = l_component->get_portal_manager( ) .
* The value inserted into the navigation-target field can be found in the Portal
* content administration tab of your portal. It is the ID or PCD Location field
wa_navigation-target = pcd. " Please provide the PCD Location of the WDJ Application here.
wa_navigation-mode   = '0'. "0 = INTERNAL(same page) and 1 = EXTERNAL(new page).
CALL METHOD lr_port_manager->navigate_absolute
    EXPORTING
      navigation_target = wa_navigation-target
      navigation_mode   = wa_navigation-mode.
You can get the PCD from the Page properties of the WDJ application page in the Portal.
Hope it helps!
Warm regards,

WebDynpro ABAP application issue from Portal after ECC 6 upgrade to SP14

Hi,
We have recently upgraded the Kernel, ABAP and Java stack of ECC 6.0 system to SP14. After the upgrade most of the WebDynpro ABAP applications doesn't load and just flickers when run from Portal as a WebDynpro iView, but they run perfectly fine when accessed directly using URL. These were running fine prior to the upgrade. Can someone suggest what can be going wrong.
Will reward points for helpful answer.
Regards
Mukesh

Hi Mukesh,
As Gajendra said, restarting the service in SICF sometimes works for us, but not always. We have also had to deactivate the entire Webdynpro node, and then reactivate it and all of the services below it.
Obviously something changed in the SP, given that we now have to do this every time we create a new WDA application.
Cheers,
John

Calling a portal page from WebDynPro ABAp application

Hi,
I would like to call a portal page (any type) from a WebdynPro ABAP application. I have the PCD location of the page.
Which call shall I make :
Absolute Navigation
Relative Navigation or
OBN.
Also, can anyone send me short code snippet on the following.
The package SWDP test examples are not working.
Best Regards
Sid

Hi Siddharth,
Well, to start with you can go for ABSOLUTE NAVIGATION.
Secondly, you can find the snippet here
DATA LO_API_COMPONENT TYPE REF TO IF_WD_COMPONENT.
DATA LO_PORTAL_MANAGER TYPE REF TO IF_WD_PORTAL_INTEGRATION.
DATA L_NAVIGATION_TARGET TYPE STRING.
LO_API_COMPONENT = WD_COMP_CONTROLLER->WD_GET_API( ).
LO_PORTAL_MANAGER = LO_API_COMPONENT->GET_PORTAL_MANAGER( ).
MOVE 'pcd://portal_content/com.xxxx.zpof_f_XXXXportalcontent/com.xxxx.test/com.xxxx.folders.MaintenanceBusinessPackage/com.xxxx.test.mt.pages.Pages/com.xxxx.pages.MaintenanceTasks'
 to l_navigation_target.
CALL METHOD lo_portal_manager->NAVIGATE_ABSOLUTE
 EXPORTING
 NAVIGATION_TARGET = L_NAVIGATION_TARGET
* NAVIGATION_MODE = IF_WD_PORTAL_INTEGRATION=>CO_SHOW_INPLACE
* WINDOW_FEATURES =
* WINDOW_NAME =
* HISTORY_MODE = IF_WD_PORTAL_INTEGRATION=>CO_NO_DUPLICATES
* TARGET_TITLE =
* CONTEXT_URL =
* POST_PARAMETERS = ABAP_FALSE
* USE_SAP_LAUNCHER = ABAP_TRUE
* BUSINESS_PARAMETERS =
* LAUNCHER_PARAMETERS =
Above it, the examples of SWDP will not work if you test them from SE80-ABAP WAS...I suggest you to create a WDA IView in Portal and test it in Portal itself.
Hope this should solve your problem.

How to exit from a WebDynpro ABAP application and open another url

Hi Friends,
How to exit from a WebDynpro ABAP application and open another url like (www.yahoo.com) in the same window of the WD4 application on click of a Button?
Regards,
Xavier

Hi,
First of all you should create outbound plug in the window you are trying to exit with plufg type "Exit"
Then create method handler in the view with this code
 data lo_view_cntr type ref to if_wd_view_controller.
 data lo_win_cntr type ref to if_wd_window_controller.
 data: l_parameter_list type wdr_event_parameter_list,
 l_parameter type wdr_event_parameter,
 l_val type ref to data,
 l_val_url type REF TO data.
 field-symbols: <fs> type any,
 <fs_url> type any.
 lo_view_cntr = wd_this->wd_get_api( ).
 lo_win_cntr = lo_view_cntr->get_embedding_window_ctlr( ).
 CREATE DATA l_val type c.
 CREATE DATA l_val_url type string.
 ASSIGN l_val->* to <fs>.
 ASSIGN l_val_url->* to <fs_url>.
 <fs> = 'X'.
 <fs_url> = 'http://your-link.com'.
 l_parameter-name = 'URL'.
 l_parameter-value = l_val_url.
 INSERT l_parameter INTO TABLE l_parameter_list.
 lo_win_cntr->if_wd_view_controller~fire_plug( EXPORTING plug_name = 'EXIT_PLUG'
 parameters = l_parameter_list ).
 You can easily change this logic to exit application instead of redirecting to the site
 just changing to
 l_parameter-name = 'CLOSE_WINDOW'.
