New Screen Flow entry for Approval Workflow

Hi,
Can anyone please help me with this? I have a requirement where I need to provide a link on a JSPDynpage to the default approval workflow screen for any KM folder. We already have links to standard permissions and subscription screens which can be called via a url which looks something like this:
http://<host>:<port>/irj/servlet/prt/portal/prteventname/HtmlbEvent/prtroot/com.sap.km.cm.command?Uri=/documents/Public%20Documents/Test%20Folder&isp=permissions
For this we had created a new entry under Screen Flow (System Configuration->KM->CM Configuration->User Interfaces->Mapping->Screen Flow) and provided the java class for the Permissions screenflow. When I try the same for approval workflow however it does not work. In short, when I create a new Screen Flow Entry e.g. "approval" and specify the Java class for approval screenflow (com.sapportals.wcm.rendering.screenflow.cm.ApprovalScreenflow) and then use the URL
http://<host>:<port>/irj/servlet/prt/portal/prteventname/HtmlbEvent/prtroot/com.sap.km.cm.command?Uri=/documents/Public%20Documents/Test%20Folder&isp=approval
it does not work. Does anybody know why approval workflow works differently and how I can remedy the situation? Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Shibendra

Hi,
The Custom Dialog Task No. you have to assign.
1) Go to std. Workflow note all the Std. Task Maintain in SWFVISU, Note all the Parameters
2) Similarly for the Respective Custom Task, Assign the Same for your Custom Workflow.

Same number of work flow entries under "Approval" link for each user

Hi All,
We are implementing SRM 5.0 .
The problem we are facing is that when we test the service BBPSTART , the number of work flow entries in the inbox for all users is same .
We created a new user on SRM and tested BBPSTART with this user...it shows the same number of work flow entries in the inbox..
What is the problem?
Thanks & Regards,

Hi Masa,
SPRO->SAP Reference IMG->Supplier Relationship Management->SRM Server->Cross-Application Basic Settings->SAP Business Workflow->Activate Standard Taks
Activate Standard Tasks
In this activity, you start a background report that defines certain tasks within the workflows of Enterprise Buyer as standard tasks. Any user can perform standard tasks, such as "Approve User Master Record". You use the workflow definition to narrow down who can actually perform the task. For example, in the case of approval of user master records, this depends on the organizational unit to which the new user master record belongs.
You must perform this activity during the initialization of the Enterprise Buyer system, otherwise the SAP Business Workflow cannot determine who the approver should be.
Is it somehow related to my problem?

Hi Experts,
I have copied the standard travel request workflow & customized it. For approval I have user decision step & all the tasks used in my workflow are custom ones. There are no std tasks.

Can you please tell me what are the details that I have to give for my task.

Change in Work item Text for Approval Workflow WS14000133

Hi,
I need to change the work item text for Shopping Cart Approval Workflow WS14000133.
I have created an Attribute in Business Object BUS2121 and called the same attribute in work item text.
In PFTC -> Redefine Work item text - > and i have defined the work item text as well called the attribute from the container.
what the problem over here is - when I am passing the attribute in the work item text in the task, I am unable to see the work item text with the Dynamic Attribute but I am able to see the work item alone (not with the Dynamic attribut)
But when i debug the workflow from SWI1 then i can see the dynamic attribute in the Container of the workflow but nt in the approver's inbox in portal..
Can you please tell me - that why is this a strange behaviour that i can see the Dynamic attributed created initially in the workflow container of the Business Object but nt in the Approvers inbox either in Backend nor in the front end...
Thanks,

Hi Marlene,
Thank you very much for your suggestions.
But I am not creating a custom workflow in designer as Laura has mentioned. I am instead trying to create a new Out of the box Approval Workflow and I get the error mentioned above.
As it works in other environment, I tried figuring out the possible differences which can lead to this error.
Today I found one difference which is there are no form Templates within Infopath Configurations in Central Admin. Now I am trying to figure out what makes this form templates to be added to the template gallery.

Function of HOLD DATA in the settings for creation of a new screen.

Hi,
Since i'm new to ABAP and still learning my way through, i would really appreciate if somebody can help me out with the exact functioning of selecting the check box 'HOLD DATA' under the settings option while creation of a new screen.
Thanks for any help extended.

Take simple scenario of SE38. The Screen for the transaction has the Flag "HOLD DATA" as Ticked.
Now enter some program name on the field and Click - Utilities-> User Profile -> Hold data.
Now come out of the transaction, go back to the same transaction. The name of the Program that you entered earlier will appear on the input field.
So if the screen doesn't have "Hold Data" set the functions of HOLD data, SET DATA, DELETE data will not work.
Also try using SET DATA For the Program input field.
SAP Help :
If you activate this option, the following functions are supported for the screen at runtime:
System -> User profile -> Hold data
-> Set data
-> Delete data
The Hold data function allows you to hold onto any entries you have made on the screen. When the screen is next processed (even in a different mode), the system then automatically redisplays the data in the input fields.
If the option is not activated, these functions are ineffective at screen runtime.

Imaging Payables Invoices upon Receipt for attachment to approval workflow

Looking for a solution to image Payable Invoices on receipt. This Invoice image has to flow through the approval workflow as an attachment with the ability to open / print.
Would appreciate any help you may be able to provide or insight from any experience you might have with similar requirement (Best practices, Issues/challenges, etc). Thanks.

1) PO approval and invoice approval is independent of each other. You have to have PO approvals. Invoice approvals are optional.
2) Check ap_wfapproval_history_v and ap_inv_aprvl_hist_all
Hope this answers your question,

Using CAF GP for Approving MDM Record Request.

I am going to use CAF GP for approval workflow.
I need to understand how to approvve the record using Java API. I know it needs to be moved from checked out stage to Checked in stage. But how do we do that from Java APIs.
I am using SP4 for now, but need the information for SP6 too.
~Nitin

If you look at your process description:
Requestor - Submit a request - store in MDM in checked out mode.
[Create a webdynpro callable object implementing IGPWebDynproCO|https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/e3f07a7a-0601-0010-ebbd-b9cfb445b814]
Have it use the checkout(new)recordCommand (this works similar as the checkincommand I described above)
Have validation at MDM to take care of all the required parameters/fields.
Approver - Approves > Change the record to check in
Use checkin as described above
Rejects > Delete the record.
For Reject you probably do not wantto delete the record but use the rollback command.
[Here some more info on how to create a GP with Webdynpro COs|https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/e0957cb6-5103-2a10-6d9d-a0a4d68c8bf1]

Send an email to previous approver after rejection in OOB Approval workflow

Hi all,
I have created OOB Approval workflow with two approvers.
If first approver rejects then i want it to send an email to the requester.
If second approver rejects then i want it to send an email to the first approver as well as requester?
Is there any way to acheive this?
And same should happened when document is approved
Also how to identify that the first approver has completed their task?

Hi Trupti,
you can do that using SharePoint designer workflows:
you can do that by putting the actions in the complete condition so you check who approved it and based on that you do the actions of sending email so it will be if conditions and where to put that in here

Completion conditions for the task process
When you click the completion conditions, you’re taken to a full-page workflow editor where you can add or change the completion conditions that for the task process. Specifically, these actions
will run every time an individual task is completed. You can customize the logic here using the workflow commands in SharePoint Designer, like conditions, actions, and else-if statements. You can also add task behavior actions, like the Set Content Approval
Status and End Task Process.

Behavior of a single task
From the summary page, if you change the behavior of a single task, you’re taken to another full-screen workflow editor where you see the individual task events, such as when it’s assigned, pending,
expires, and so on. Specifically, there are five events:
Before a task is assigned: These actions run before every individual task is created.
When a task is pending: These actions run after every individual task has been created.
When a task expires: These actions run every time an individual task is incomplete after its due date.
When a task is deleted: These actions run every time an individual task is deleted before it’s completed.
When a task completes: These actions run every time an individual task is complete.
You can add any of the available conditions and actions, and you can add several more task behavior actions this time, like append, delegate, escalate, and reassign. You can even add task notification
emails and wait for changes in a task process item. The available task behavior actions change depending on the event you’ve selected.

Restrict editing/deleting item when approval workflow is in progress

I have a list for contributors to submit documents and activate an approval workflow. The requirement is to restrict all users from editing and deleting the document once the workflow is activated. After the workflow is completed, if the document
is approved, all users also should not be able to edit/delete the item; if the document is rejected, users should regain the permission to edit/delete the item.
I had no problem with restricting edit/delete permission after the document is approved by adding a Declare Record action after the content approval status is set to approved in SPD.
However, the workflow was not able to complete when I added a Declare Record action in the "When the Task Process Starts" step and an Undeclare Record action in the very beginning of the "When the task process completes" step to restrict users from editing/deleting
the item when the workflow is in progress.
After I activated the workflow and approved the item, the Workflow status shows Approved but the Approval status still shows Pending. In addition, the "Approval Workflow Task is complete" (shown in the following image) is missing in the workflow history,
which seems to me that the workflow task is never completed.
Please advise me the proper way to restrict users from editing/deleting the document while the workflow is in progress. Thank you.

then use SPD to customize the task process to lock them out upon starting and give them rights again upon rejection.

Can new screens be purchased and installed on ipad 2

Can a new screen be purchased for a ipad 2 and installed

The touch screen is a complex piece of electronics. It's not like a flashlight, where you can just pop out the glass and pop in a new piece. There's sensors and such that make the screen work.
Only you know if you possess the techinical expertise to tackle it. I'm fairly confident in taking computers apart and the such, but I'd defer to a repair person for something like this.
Another thing you'll also want to look into in making your decision is what kind of warranty the repair place offers. Do they back up their work or is it 'too bad, so sad' if they make a mistake.
