Long list of user decisions

Hi all,
I need to send a work item for choosing one of a long list of purchasing groups (about 90) and I don't know if
the only solution is a user decision with the same number of buttons or it's possible to use a dropdown list or something similar. I need to save the corresponding code of PG and use it after in a function module.
Any help? Thanks in advance.
Kind regards,
Angelo

Hi,
Definitely don't do this with a user decision.
It's much better to let an ABAP person create a simple screen in which you select a purchasing group (like in search helps), then create a method for this abap in appropriate Business Object and then create a task for that method.
Before you make this, isn't there an existing method to use for selecting purchasing groups?
Kind regards, Rob Dielemans

    Dear Ramesh,
    Need your help!
    While creating travel expense request from Enterprise Portal, travelers create few attachments [pdf/doc/xms/txt] and then save the travel expense reports.
    A workflow then gets triggered and this travel expense report reached the SAP Inboxes of the checkers [in the finance department].
    The issue here is that these checkers do not have access to enterprise portal and they expect to see the attachments [that the traveler has created via the portal] via corresponding work items in their SAP Inboxes u2013 which currently is not happening!
    I checked the trip transaction that got created [in the backend / in SAP] and found the u2018attachment listu2019 menu option in GOS being disabled [may be because there is not even one attachment that has come to the backend!]
    What needs to be done so that the attachments can even be viewed from the backend / from SAP Inbox?  Does this involve coding?
    Please suggest!

    Somehow, they are still appeared as active user in Sharepoint Online.

    Hope you can advice. Thanks.

    SharePoint does not remove users from SharePoint permissions just because they were deleted/disabled in AD. This is to maintain referential integrity. In fact, when you delete a user from SharePoint, that user remains in the SharePoint content database,
    just marked as deleted.
    They do not have access to SharePoint given their account is deleted/disabled. But as far as automatically managing this, I'm not aware of a tool. On-prem there is Metalogix ControlPoint which does a great job of this, I haven't explored the O365 options.

  • When i double click on Mac HD the view has changed and my user name is no longer listed on the left. How can I reset this

    When i double click on Mac HD the view has changed and my user name is no longer listed on the left. How can I reset this?

    Do a factory reset .. nothing will be deleted from your backups and you will be able to get access to them again.
    The Factory Reset Gen1-4.
    Unplug your TC. Hold in reset. and power the TC back on.. without releasing reset for about 10sec. When the status light flashes rapidly; release it.
    Be Gentle! Feel the switch click on. It has a positive feel..  add no more pressure after that.
    TC will reboot after a couple of minutes with default factory settings and will wipe out previous configurations.
    No files are deleted on the hard disk.. No reset of the TC deletes files.. to do that you use erase from the airport utility.

  • How To Send Invoice List as attachment in User Decision Step?

    HI All,
    I have developed a workflow in which there is one ZMETHOD in which i will get the list of invoices.and that i want to send it as attachment to User Decision Step.
    How to do this?
    Regards,
    Arpita

    If your users will have access to MIR4, why not just bind the business object BUS2081 as an adhoc object into your decision step?  That would solve everything pretty nicely, I think.

    My email account has disappeared from my iphone4. No longer listed. Tried to set up new email account but now won't accept my user name and or password.

    Finally went to the Apple shop where a nice young man explained that I had to use the original password not the recently changed password - case sensitive too - and finally have installed the updated Adobe Flash player with no shaking! Maybe this helps you too. JL

  • ITunes is no longer listed in Default Programs in Vista

    After accepting the latest update to iTunes (7.6.029) + QuickTime this afternoon, there are several registry keys associated with iTunes and QuickTime that no longer have the appropriate permissions set which I believe is the main reason why iTunes is no longer listed in Default Programs in Vista. It also constantly alerts me that it's not the default player for audio files and if I'd like to go to Default Programs control panel to fix it. If I say yes, I get a blank screen in the details because it's trying to point to the properties of the once-listed iTunes in the Default Programs screen. I know I can disable the notification, but it's just evident of larger issues with the software.
    Anyone else experience this with a fix? I've seen many, many posts when Googling this problem about the Default Programs in Vista not listing iTunes, other problems associated with registry keys for iTunes and QuickTime that aren't editable, etc.
    I actually discovered this after the update when one of my sidebar gadgets would no longer launch iTunes. I performed a system restore to this morning before the update and most everything worked again. However, I had to reinstall iTunes because it warned me that it couldn't launch because some of the necessary files were missing. After reinstalling it, the sidebar tool was able to launch it again but the tool isn't listed in Default Programs now with some of the registry keys locked. I can unlock them and adjust the permissions but there are 50+ entries and their child keys that all would need to be unlocked.
    It would be nice to have this problem resolved. I'm concerned about future upgrades as I've seen other users mention this problem in 7.4 and 7.1.

    I have the same exact problem and same exact symptoms. I tried uninstalling and re-installing and no luck. Did you ever find a solution?

  • Step for User Decision

    Hi All,
    I have a scenario and two solutions for it.
    Please give me the input for which is a better solution and why.
    Scenario - Approver have to either Approve/ Reject a particular request made.
    The user decision has to come from Java front end  and the workitem created has to be executed externally
    ( not by opening sap inbox)
    Soln 1 : Create an asynchronous task and custom terminating events for the workitem and trigger terminating event for any user decision Approve or Reject.
    Soln 2 : Send an normal decision task and programatically execute one of the decision using the WAPI* FM when user clicks Approve/Reject.
    Both of them I think uses the WAPI * FM.
    Thanks
    Chandran

    Sorry I was not clear in my question before.
    I still refered to the first solution which uses a Aysn Task and a method which does not have any code (just a placeholder)
    IA is absolutely right but I dont have the flexibilty to use an ivew.
    Thanks a lot for your reply. I would close up this thread.
    Just some additional clarification if you can bring up
    What additional code that would be required for the second solution (both uses a sap WAPI FM )
    Both can be tracked by WF tools by finding out the agent and the person who have completed the Workitem so which tools you were mentioning about
    Actually I did not get which is a better solution but realized both can be used atleast no worry on the performance load. My be this topic can go for a long time to figure out

  • CS4 Glitches - long list

    Following is a list of glitches, and oversights that I have noticed in CS4. Let me say first of all that I have a completely 'clean' system, all maintenance has been run and I have 50% drive space free - although at the moment I do not have an external scratch disk. RAM has been tested also. I have 7 gigs running 4x2.66ghz. None of these problems are particularly frequent and as a result its possible to 'get away' with them. Indeed none of the problems are frequent enough that its likely it has anything to do with RAM or Hardrive.
    Glitches/oversights
     Selection glitches - sometimes when making diagonal selections or turning a path into a selection the selection is wrong - divided into Square blocks. Here is a visual sample
    http://img83.imageshack.us/my.php?image=selectionproblemcr3.gif
      Choosing Select All and then trying to modify a selection, for example "contract" is no longer possible. Items are grayed out in the select menu. This was noticed by someone else in another thread, but it bears repeating.
     In free transform its sometimes no longer possible to move the centre point. This problem seems to happen on larger res files.
     In addition there is a small graphics glitch with Free Transform, the centre point icon now displays with two edges of a box, on high res files.
     Path points now display badly with a missing section, making them appear triangular on large files using Open GL - this makes them less clear.
     The cursor/tool alignment problem, which has been, mentioned in many threads - requires pressing of the F key to 'reset' the screen view. I'm not so sure this is a 'get a better graphics card' issue because I've seen it with too many different, and decent cards.
     Photoshop is crashing sometimes when the layer styles dialog box comes up, this usually happens when another click to close the dialog is made too rapidly. This is quite a serious crash, taking a long time for the system to resolve itself before relaunch.
    The new Masks Panel is not included in Keyboard Shortcuts yet - although I realise better shortcuts already exist for adding or subtracting masks from selections, (shift command and alt in layers panel) this is not consistent with the rest of the app, and people might want to define their own shortcuts.
     Photoshop cs4 crashing on saving on very large files maybe related to the next problem, because the symptom is the same
     Some very scratch intensive operations cause CS4 to 'jam'. This only happens when you switch to another application or use the hard drive for other activities.
     Panels can sometimes take a long time to "wake up" - before their contents appear. This is frustrating because all previous versions of photoshop have not had this problem.
     I've also noticed that Configurator panels with Actions included can occasionally after a pause, crash the app

    I think this is a matter of the user not being willing to face reality.
    Not trying to b rude but sometimes the truth is unpleasant. But there is a good side to this as well. If you upgrade and make things better you will work more efficiently save lot of time be able to go to concerts, meet beautiful young women who will kill you before your time and that will in turn save you a lot of taxes!
    Look at al the benefits, upgrade, I bought the Nvidia GeForce 8800 GT immediately when acquiring the CS4 Master Collection. When my Mac no longer support the OS I updated to a MacPro and I will update again shortly even though it will be costly as will Ann and Buko when the applications no longer are supported by the OS they can run on their system.
    And these new computers when outfitted with a high powered graphic card that supports 4GB of VRAM runs over $4,000 out of the box. You can get away without that Card but eventually you will be buying and installing it.
    Mark this is just life and s are performance problems and if that is a long list then I would say even if they were bugs that is a pretty short long list.
    What an upgrade.

  • Need Help in Workflow - User decision

    I have to pass 5 parameter with this user decision title but they only give 4 parameter options in the user decision step. Is there anyway I can have five parameter place?
    Please help

    You might try creating a container element which is a long text field. Then write a method that will concatenate 2 or more of your parameters into the text field. Call this method before the decision step, and use this text field as a parameter.
    If you do this, you need to find out what the maximum length of a parameter can be (I think it's 50 char).
    All seems like a lot of work for one extra parameter, though!

  • SOFM in user decision step - provide reason in UWL

    Hello Everyone,
    I'm working with a customer who wants to use a user decision step and add a reason for the rejection only.  This step will be executed in UWL - since UWL doesn't support syncrhonous dialog chains, it can't be implemented by adding another step with SOFM.  I have seen the 'template with attachment' in the user decision step, and have tried binding SOFM to the Reference in the container, but the user doesn't have the option.
    Perhaps this could be implemented with a secondard amodal method - which checks the user decision code and only implements if the decision was rejected.  I'd like to be able to put a condition on the secondary methods.
    If you've done something like this, please let me know!
    Regards
    Ginger

    Hi Ginger,
    Unfortunately it is not only synchronous dialog chains, but also secondary methods that are not supported in the UWL, so you're stuck both ways.
    Though, I have been told that the latest SP does support some kind of advance with dialog functionality (SP15 I think?).
    At one customer we used a custom ABAP-based decision step which executed in a wingui session - thus synchronous dialog chains worked as long as every subsequent step was wingui based (which SOFM.CREATE obviously is) - worked quite well.
    Let me know if you need more info.
    Cheers,
    Mike

  • User decision Dead line

    Hi Experts,
                      I am having a user decision step type and for that i have deadline for 3 days it works fine as long as the person dosent click the work item.
    In some cases the agent clicks the user decision workitem but dos't take any action for more than 3 days. In such a case also i need to send a dead line notification mail how to do this.
    In this case the normal dead line is not applicable as he had already clicked the user decision but did not take any action.
    kindly advice me on how to do this.
    Regards,
    Dheepak

    you can keep a activity step after the user decision step and write the code which calculates the number of days passed and use the appropriate FM SAP_WAPI* to set the status of the workitem to "Ready" Status.
    or
    keep a wait step for 3 days and if the decision step is not in completed status, keep a "send mail" step which can remind the approver that the workitem is still pending for approval.
    Hope others might give a better design...

  • User decision step agent issue

    Hi All
    In my WF I get a user profile back from a method that check a ZTABLE for the correct user to receive mail and a user decision work item .
    The mail step is working correctly and sending mail to the user (as per the parameter returned from the method)
    The problem is that user decision step does not sent a workitem to the correct user .
    Any ideas on what the problem might be ?
    In the email step I bind to &ADDRESSSTRINGS&.Not sure what the correct binding is for the user decision step?
    Many thks
    Gerhard

    Click workflow  log (use any of the log transactions, swi1, swi2_freq swi6 etc)
    click list with technical details, shift+F9
    find the step, click on it and tick the tab container.
    But if you could just answer my previous question about how you are sending the mail, because if you directly use email address then it is of course impossible to use that as agent assignment for the user decision.
    A user decision is ultimately sent to a user id

  • RAR5.3 not able to cut and paste list of users to Multiple Selection screen

    CC V4.0 on ABAP system has a feature where you can cut and paste a list of many users from the clipboard to Single Values column in the Multiple Selection screen, so you can run SOD Analysis Report for all those users.  The Multiply Selection screen is a standard SAP supplied pop up screen.
    With RAR 5.3 the Multiply Selection screen design is different.  There is no longer feature to cut and paste from clipboard.  We have to input each user one at a time.  So if you have many users (20, 30, etc.) it is a time consuming task.  It is not acceptable to our business power users.
    We can import the list of users to a Custom User Group (in the Configuration Tab).  First of all, there is no mass delete on Custom User Group.  You have to delete each user one at a time which is time consuming.  The alternative is to create a new Custom User Group each time, then it becomes a maintenance nightmare.  Secondly, it is in the Configuration Tab which is only available to Administrators (fear of users changing configuation data), so the Administrator (or whomever has access to the Configuration Tab) has to maintain the Custom User Groups which is a lot of work for him or her or them.
    We talk to SAP every week.  But they are looking at this as a long time project.  Does any one of you (or your company) has the same requirements?  How do you get around it?  Did you setup some other procedures so users can cut and paste the users list and run the Risk Analysis report themselves?
    Thanks,
    John.

    This is probably a JVM issue. Are you using JInitiator or the IE native JVM?
    I suggest you turn on the JVM console, set the trace level to maximum, and then watch what happens when you attempt the copy.
    Also, check the key mapping (usually ctrl-k) that the forms applet is implementing. Perhaps ctrl-c means something else...
