Need help in customizing workflow

Hi All,
Need your help in customizing APINVAPR workflow.
Please help in clarifying below point.
How APINVAPR is mapped to invoice approval process,for PO we use document type form to map the POAPPRV workflows when we customize we will map the custom workflow XXXPOAPPRV to make our workflow work.
Similarly how will we customize APINVAPR and map the workflow, pls let me know your thoughts.
My requirement is to customize the APINVAPR workflow and increase the escalation days, during the Invoice Approval Process/Escalate Document Approval activity escalation will happen in 5 days, i need to increase it by 60 days.
If anyone have worked in similar requirement, please help.
Also while downloading getting following error
While downloading workflow APINVAPR, getting below errors

Need help in custom workflow issue

Hi All,
I have created role using API wf_directory.createadhocrole and sending notification to the respective persons, its working as expected.
But all the open notification are sent to the current user assigned to the role, also in wf_notifications table i a can see role name assigned to the Reciptent_role column instead of respective person not sure issue was caused due to this.
Please help to prevent open notification sent to the current user assigned to the role.
Thanks in advance
Rajesh

Rajesh,
Not sure about what you meant with 'But all the open notification are sent to the current user assigned to the role'. That is the intended functionality.
If what you want to achieve is that every user receives the same notification content but in separate notifications to that each user response independently then you have to check the 'Expand Roles' when you define the notification in workflow builder. This way each user will get a notification with a different notification_id.

Alejandro

Hola scj2000-
Muchas gracias por visitar nuestro foro en búsqueda de una explicación al cargo que recién apareció en tu tarjeta de crédito.
Entiendo su preocupación, ya que cualquier cargo extraño que aparece en un estado de cuenta puede ser alarmante. En este caso, el último cargo que puede recuperar usando el correo electrónico que usaste para registrarte al foro, refleja que se renovó un antivirus Kaspersky. Esta autorización nos diste cuando realizaste la compra de tu Lenovo, desde entonces se renueva automáticamente la licencia de antivirus.
Las otras publicaciones que has leído, indican lo mismo. Un cargo que se ha hecho a la tarjeta de crédito que se presentó durante la compra con la autorización del cliente.
Lamento mucho la confusión y espero esto aclare tu duda.
Atentamente,

I need help convincing my workflow administrator on Illustrator PDF presets.

I need help convincing my workflow administrator on Illustrator PDF presets.
I work at a company which prints folding cartons, pressure sensitive labels, and film packaging. Esko Automation Engine 12 is our primary workflow. We use PDF files saved directly out of Illustrator as the primary file format. At times, the size of an art file can get fairly bloated from scaled images, effects, transparency, etc. The workflow and Ilustrator have a hard time dealing with the file size. It has been suggested to use the "export" function under the File Menu and save the art file as a "normalized PDF". I honestly believe Distiller isn't even remotely involved when you do this. I tried to make the case to use the settings in the dialog box which appears when you save a PDF out of Illustrator. I know for a fact that this dialog box isn't any different from what you see in Distiller. From my years of experience with Kodak Prinergy, I know things like bicubic downsampling, etc. will not hurt the file. The workflow administrator thinks otherwise. Can anybody point me in the direction of Illustrator PDF presets that would convince him otherwise?

Brian,
What is somewhat confusing in your post is your mentioning a capability to export PDF from the File Menu as a normalized PDF file. There is no such option in Adobe Illustrator, at least as it comes directly from Adobe. You may use the File=>Save As dialog to save the file as a PDF file, but PDF is not an option under File=>Export. Furthermore, in terms of the .joboptions provided by Adobe, there is no Normalized PDF joboptions settings.
You mention Esko. Is it possible that you have one of Esko's products installed that provides proprietary plug-ins to Adobe Illustrator? If so, that may be the source of this Normalized PDF option. Maybe some other participant in the is forum knows more about that, but at Adobe, we don't (for better or worse).
You mention problems with file bloat due to “scaled images, effects, transparency, etc.” Are you referring to the Illustrator .AI files or to PDF files created from same? If the issue is the .AI file size, the only thing you can do to fix that is to uncheck the save as compatible PDF file option when saving .AI. In terms of PDF files from Adobe Illustrator:
(1) Scaled images should not add anything to a PDF file size unless you take such images and attempt to upres them in Photoshop prior to creating PDF. There really is no benefit to be achieved by such upresing of the images; any competent RIP can do that itself just as well as Photoshop.
(2) Transparency only adds to the PDF file size if you create PDF with transparency already flattened, or what I would better describe as ruined. Flattening transparency often causes large raster bitmaps and/or very complex groups of vector objects to be created to simulate transparency in an opaque imaging model (such as is supported by PostScript).
You obviously need to produce PDF that can be accommodated by the rest of your workflow. Since we don't know what that is and whether it conforms to current best industry practices, we cannot make an absolute recommendation for you.
However, generally speaking, the most reliable PDF print publishing workflow would generally require that you create PDF/X-4 using the PDF/X-4 PDF preset from Adobe Illustrator (or for that matter, from InDesign as well). PDF/X-4 supports full ICC color management (including spot colors), the entire PDF imaging model, and live transparency.

Hi,

Hi,
As far as I know, to audit file access, we should Enable Audit Policy, and then Set up Audit System Access Control List (SACL).
After that, we can make sure that under security event logs there are auditing logs for file access.
Please refer to the below link for more details about auditing file access on file server:

Need Help updating custom API Interface to VME-MXI-2

Need Help.
I have a custom Visual C++ 6.0 application that interfaces to the VME-MXI-2 card.
This interface works on older machines, but when we upgrade to new PC's, the interface works, yet it appears that communication exists between the hardware board, and the PC Card appears to be working properly.
I suspect that the drivers have a different interface, but need the interface documentation in order to verify this, can you help?
Older machines use: PCI-MXI-2, and the driver is: C:\Windows\System32\Drivers\vvxid.sys (File version 1.2) cpright 1996-2000
Newer machine has: PCI-MXI-2, and the driver is: C:\Windows\System32\Drivers\nipalk.sys (File version 1.61f0) cpright 2002

Alan,
As for reading and writing memory addresses from the VME memory map, you could use functions such as viIn8, viIn16, viIn32, viOut8, viOut16, or viOut32 in the NI-VISA API. You can find the NI-VISA Funtion help at "Start >> Programs >> National Instruments >> NI-VISA >> NI-VISA Help" for Windows. Alternativelly, the NI-VISA Programmers Reference Manual is available for download from ni.com.
What exactly is your application that uses ACFAIL? ACFAIL is typically pretty unrealiable, and is a difficult signal to catch (especially over a bus extension like MXI-2). Basically, ACFAIL is asserted right before a total failure/shutdown of the chassis, so you have a very short window of time to detect the signal before it disappears.

Hi,
Could anyone provide me some documents or reference links which will be helpful for Customizing Correspondence Management in ES4?
Many Thanks!!

Hi Santosh,
Sorry for the late reply.
I have a XDP file having both static and dynamic content. I need to populate the dynamic content with some value which I will be getting from the XML which is stored in the body of the SOAP request. I want the letter to be generated dynamically (like no user selection of XML etc) because I want to avoid manual input in the correspondence management.
Could you please let me know if the above can be achieved. If yes, could you please provide any useful stuff related to above requirement.
Many Thanks!!!

Need help in Custom component creation with cq

Hi,
I have created my own component in adobe cQ and able to drag an drop in any page. for each instance I am seeing the copy of
component under node /content/mypage/commoncomp. If I edit the properties using design dialog I can able to store values as
expected.
Need help in
1) When I drag and drop the component it shows null for the property by deafult if I click save on edit dialog then the
value is showing. The default value is not shown by default while drag and drop my component it requires atleast one time to
click save from dialog using design mode
2) I need to use the default properties of the orginal components which is root and use the duplicated properties if incase user edit the properties of duplicated component. This may be too messy.... to be more clear
I want to use a common component in many pages but the properties of the components should be updated only when user edit it in design dialog utill then I need the page to use properties of root component.
Thanks

You just need to create your own version of PlumtreeTopBarView (original in com.plumtree.common.uiparts), and use CustomActivitySpace.xml to override that view with your own view. Your version would use some kidn fo logic to determine whether or not to display certain elements. TheUI Customization Guide should help quite a bit, and we have several quickstarts for overriding views you can start from.
Is there some Help file in PT that I can reference that will enable me to find what namespace does GetRequestURL() belongs to?I would simply do a string compare. Tokenize the URL into the base address / control arguments, perhaps splitting on the "?" symbol; then tokenize the base address on the ".". You'll end up with three strings. For portal.plumtree.com, the three strings would portal, plumtree, and com. You can then use those string in the logig you add to PlumtreeTopBarView.

Need help in Customizing Workspace

Hello All,
I am customizing the flex based ES4 workspace. I was able to follow all the instructions in the Adobe provided document for Customization.
I am using Flash Builder 4.5 and the SDK which comes with the Livecycle ES4 installation. I was able to import the adobe-workspace-src.zip file and extract the contents and create a new project in flash builder.
I am facing few problems when I try to build the workspace-ui project using ANT.
1) unable to open 'C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Flash Builder 4.6\sdks\4.5.1.lc/frameworks/libs/datavisualization.swc'
When I checked in the folder, I saw that swc file does not exist at all. Do I need to download the file? Or how do I fix this issue.
2) The style 'backgroundAlpha' is only supported by type 'mx.controls.TextArea' with the theme(s) 'halo'.
I am getting this error in Reconnect.mxml file and I googled for the possible reason for this error but no luck. Can any one let me know how to fix this?
3) unable to open 'C:\Adobe\Workspace_Code\Workspace\foundation\bin\foundation.swc'
Same as the first point, It doesn't exist at all in the folder. Do I need to download the file? Or how do I fix this issue.
Any inputs on these are highly appreciated!
Thanks.

Need help on deleting workflows

Hi experts,
I need to delete workflows that need to be retired. I am veryvery new to workflows. So, what is the Tcode to delete the entire workflow? also, what are the steps that need to be check upon deleting them? i need to delete their custom tables/function modules as well. Can I delete the workflow in one shot? or i need to delete task by task..? thanks in advance

Hi,
Prior to deleting a workflow first Delete/Cancel all the workitems of that workflow. It will help you to avoid unnecessary dump while executing those workitems. Its better to cancel the workitems if it is a productive system.
To delete workflow delete the following items in below mentioned order.
1. Workflow
2. Tasks
3. BO/Classes

Beginner - need help with custom profiles

I've got 30-day demo versions of both Aperture and Lightroom trying to work out which is best for printing using custom profiles I've had done for a selection of textured art papers for use on my Epson R2400. I've read the printing documentation for both products.
In Aperture, I select print from the menu and open the print dialogue window. Then I open the printer settings window choosing the correct media and switching off Epson 'Color Adjustment' and saving the settings. Then I'm selecting my color profile from Aperture's 'ColorSync Profile' option in the print window and making sure 'Black Point Compensation' is selected. Then I'm pressing print.
In Lightroom 2, I select print from the menu and scroll down to the 'Color Management' tab in the print module. Here I'm choosing my custom profile from the drop down list and setting rendering intent as 'Perceptual'. On clicking the print button the default print window opens and I'm switching off Epson 'Color Adjustment' and selecting my preferred paper type. Then I'm pressing print.
Now I will admit that I'm new to printing with profiles and a complete newbie to Aperture and Lightroom. However, my prints from Lightroom are absolutely perfect, but colours are differing in Aperture prints. In particular, prints are slightly lighter and washed-out. I'm wondering if I might be missing a step somewhere in Aperture? It seems strange that both applications follow roughly the same print procedure yet I'm getting different results using the same profiles and images. I'd much rather use Aperture so I'm trying to seek an explanation for the change in colors.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.

A lot of people including me have had problems in this area. There may have been some problems but in my case I was so absorbed in trying different solutions it is hard to say what worked when.
This works for me using an HP 9180:
1. In the View drop down select Printing Profile and choose your paper. This step is not critical but can be helpful.
2. select Print Image and we will work through the menu in sequence.
3. Select your printer
4. Click on Print settings
Click on the Cover Page arrows and you will be given a number of other choices. Select Paper Type/Quality. Select your paper and possibly adjust the other values but generally I leave these alone unless i specifically want Borderless printing.
Click save
5. back on the print menu select paper size. I usually select best fit next.
6. Select Colorsync Profile and again select your paper.
7. Keep Black Point clicked on.
8. I find that I need to set my Gamma between 1.10 and 1.20.
9. I usually click on the Loupe and check to see if Sharpening is needed.
10. Adjust scaling and width to your needs.
11. I then Print as I have not found that Previewing helps me to improve my Workflow.
It may all seem straightforward but this now works for me.
When this all started there were many saying how important it was to calibrate the screen, many tried this but is still did not help solve the problem. From what i understand all the Canon printers are capable of giving excellent results with Aperture. i hope that you join the community of satosfied users. Good luck.

Hello Jani Rautiainen,
    Thanks a lot for replying my question.
    This is the first time i am working with the BI Publisher reports and fusion applications.
    My requirement is to add few columns to the standard report with out loosing the functionality.
    I was not aware that there is two ways of doing this, i was always copying data model and report to a new folder and trying to create a new job for the report.
    As mentioned in the document 7.2.1.4 Using the Customize Feature    , i clicked on the more button on my report but i do not see the customize option. Do i need to have any specific role for this to appear in the menu? Please kindly let me know.
    Also i see below limitations while customizing report
Limitations
Following are limitations of the Customize report option:
The Customize option is only available through direct access to the BI Publisher server using the /xmlpserver URL (for example:http://hostname.com:7001/xmlpserver). The Customize option is not available through the /analytics URL used to access Oracle Business Intelligence Enterprise Edition.
The Customize option is available only for reports. The Customize option is not available for data models, style templates, or sub templates.To customize data models, style templates or sub templates and insulate them from potential changes from patching: Make a copy of the data model, style template, or sub-template and either rename it or place it in a custom folder. Ensure that you update any reports to point to the customized data model, style template, or sub template.
    My requirement is to add few additional columns which needs Data Model to be modified, Can i copy the data model to the custom folder and do my modifications and point this data model in the report(as mentioned in the point 2 in the limitations)? In that case, will the original report submission works?

Prasad R
