No administrator privileges for the administrator!

After using Migration Asst. to update a new MacBook Pro from my previous one, I've encountered this error when launching "Finale":
"You need to log onto this machine as an administrator to authorize Finale". I AM the administrator! Nothing I do allows me to enter the serial number to authorize the app. I've even tried adding a new User with admin privileges and installed a clean installation of the app. No change in the error msg.
Finale is no help. They won't help with issues from old versions.
Any suggestions?

"No administrator found for the task" in the front end

Hi all,
My issue is, whenever approval request is raised from the front end ( JAVA WEB-DYNPRO), it triggers the workflow through the "sap_wapi_start_workflow" and when the workflow proceeds to the first level of approval, the front end application provides the approver with Approve and Reject options.
On click of approve, from the java webdynpro, the approve status is written in the container using "sap_wapi_write_container" and then a call is made to "sap_wapi_workitem_complete". Upon excution, the message line is "No administrator found for the task" and the return code is "1".
But if we do the same steps from the backend (R/3), the workitem is getting completed without any such error.
Please advice.
Thanks.

Hi Balaji,
I think I have an answer for you. This has happened with us when approving a WD java task using UWL (in our case for travel). The key is the return code of 1.
What has happened is this. The return code actually comes from the function SWW_WI_STATUS_CHANGE_NEW which is called deep in the WAPI wrapper. It means "infeasible_state_transition = 1".
This is due to the fact that after updating the container, your wapi call from web dynpro tries to change the workitem from status of "Ready" to status "Completed". This will not work.
What you will have to do is call "SWW_WI_STATUS_CHANGE_NEW" to set the status to 'SELECTED' beofre setting the item to complete.
The reason for this is that when you are executing from R3, the status change is done for you. When calling from the WD, no reservation of the workitem occurs.
Sorry about last night, I live well outside of town and the phone reception at my place is poor.

WF notification:work item cannot be executed message no. 5W141. As got overtime, i am using the standard task 20000460 which i already maintain the agent as general task. I am using the Agent (Default Rule) rule number 157 (Superior (chief position)).

"No Administrator found for the task " ?

Hi All,
I am using a standard method "display" in my ztask . [BO - FIPP, method - dispaly]
workitem created by this task is to be delivered to "initiator".
Now, initiator has this workitem in his inbox, but whenever he tries to execute that , a message is dispalyed saying
"No Administrator found for the task " and task is NOT executed at the end.
Please suggest wat could be missing or wat could be cross checked here to resolve the matter.
Many Thanks

You're welcome Priya,
One of the major advantages of forums like these is the search functionality. If you learn how to use that in an effective way you can solve more problems in shorter amounts of time than by posting questions.

No Administrator found for the task (solution in FAQ not applicable sadly)

Hi All,
I have had to build a custom work item inbox due to complex client requirements, one of which being that all tasks are declared as "General tasks", so that all users can select and work them.
Work item execution is performed using the function module SWL_WI_DISPATCH (I've also tested using SAP_WAPI_EXECUTE_WORKITEM), which sometimes returns the error 'No administrator found for the task'.
I followed the standard instructions for this error message, refreshing the org assignments, transaction SWU_OBUF etc, and this did not help the issue.
The error seems to occur within the function module RH_WI_AGENT_EXECUTE_CHECK, however according to our configuration I can see no reason why users shouldn't be allowed to execute the work item, if the org assignment has been stable for several months, all tasks are generic, and the work item status is READY. There is no rule for determining agent beyond them being "General task"s.
Does anyone have any ideas? According to the data in SWWWIHEAD I can't see any reason why execution should be failing for these work items.
Thanks

Hi there,
almoste there
The new extended eMail notification do allow a feature, which is named "Forward by eMail" (in the general settings of SWNCONFIG). And the result is, that a work item can be executed by another user-id, who is not the actual receiver of the work item.
If you looked at report RSWNWIEX you'll find out that exactly the proposed solution is in use there, having a very usuable example already in place: (check lines 155 and following)
 CALL FUNCTION 'SAP_WAPI_EXECUTE_WORKITEM'
 EXPORTING
 workitem_id = p_wi_id
 IF lv_rc <> 0 AND cl_swn_settings=>wi_forward_via_mail = 'X'.
*- require to put back if WI is selected
 CALL FUNCTION 'SAP_WAPI_ADM_WORKITEM_BACK'
 CALL FUNCTION 'SAP_WAPI_FORWARD_WORKITEM'
 EXPORTING
 workitem_id = p_wi_id
 user_id = sy-uname
 COMMIT WORK. "Needs to be done before executing again
 CALL METHOD cl_swf_run_wim_factory=>initialize( ).
 CALL FUNCTION 'SAP_WAPI_EXECUTE_WORKITEM'
That doesn't blast a security hole, as far as I see.
Using the table SWWUSERWI directly is not advisable at that time, I'd say.
Best wishes,
Florin

SAP_WAPI_DECISION_COMPLETE No administrator found for the task

Hi gurus,
I have a problem executing the FM SAP_WAPI_DECISION_COMPLETE. Everytime i run the FM, it gives the error "No administrator found for the task". But in the Workflow Logs (SWI1), there is an agent and can actually access the workitem on the business workplace of that agent. I just need to run this because the approval is triggered in WebDynpro. I've done the following things to fix it but the error still occurs:
1. Set the decision step as General. (even the standard decision gives the same error)
2. Set the workflow as General.
3. Refresh the Org. Structure thru SWUS
4. Refresh the object buffer thru SWU_OBUF.
5. Log in and out of the system after refreshing buffers
I hope somebody can help me out as soon as possible.
Thanks in advance,
Dexter

Hi Rick,
I've used SAP_WAPI_DECISION_COMPLETE a couple of times before, here's how i called the FM:
        CALL FUNCTION 'SAP_WAPI_DECISION_COMPLETE'
          EXPORTING
          WORKITEM_ID          = wa_wfm_steplog-wi_id   "----
>wi_id of the decision step
          LANGUAGE             = sy-langu
          USER                      = sy-uname
          DECISION_KEY         = ly_decision_key            "-----> 0001
          DO_COMMIT            = 'X'
        IMPORTING
          RETURN_CODE          = l_subrc
     NEW_STATUS           = new_status
        TABLES
          MESSAGE_LINES        = lt_message.
i found out that the error occurs if this FM is not executed by the Agent (approver). But even if i run this FM using a different login and key in the UNAME if the agent, it still gives the error.
Its weird because on my previous company, any user can execute this FM to update ANY decision step.
Hope you can still help me.
Thanks,
Dexter

WF Err: No administrator found for the task

Hi,
I am implementing idoc alert functionality using the program RSEIDOCA which uses the task 74508518. The problem I am facing is users are not able to open the work item from the attachment then receive in the mail.
The error thrown is No administrator found for the task.
I have tried executing the work item from SWIA and the same error persists.
I had made the task general, refershed the buffers, refreshed the Org environment, but the problem is still there.
Can any please suggest any way out.
Thanks in advance

Hi,
One more addition to the case. Upon more testing I see that problem is only coming when I try to execute work item created by some other user.
I have tried executing the work-item using SWIA , but with no success.
Thanks in advance for help.

AR31 - No administrator found for the task. Msg No 5W141

When I retire an Aset thru AR31 and release I get an Error msg. No administrator found for the task. Msg No 5W141. I did search in this but it is for goods movement. But I face this while retiring an Asset. Is there any one who can giude me to resolve this issue. This is the first retirement after implimentation.

Hello Syamagari
1- Please check in transaction OAWF if the responsible users are   assigned to the workflow tasks
   Menu path: Basic Functions
                 Assign tasks to agent
                    Correct worklist
                    Release worklist
                    Correct and release worklist
2- In addition check if the users are assigned to the workflow-tasks in the basis-component (transaction PFTC).
   Menu path: Task type: TS   - Standard task
              Task     : corresponding task
3.-Also check the minimum customizing for workflow:
     SWU3 => automatic customizing

'No Administrator found for the task' while releasing the task in AR31

Dear Gurus,
i am facing the issue 'No Administrator found for the task' while releasing the task in AR31 while doing Mass Asset change.
Please help to provide the solution.
Many thanks.
Kumar

Dear Kumar,
error 5W141 indicates that the configuration for workflow is not in place fully.
1. SWU3 => Automatic customizing
You find the customizing of the workflow under Basis -> Business
Management -> SAP Business Workflow. There you can check the minimum
customizing for workflow:
2, Please check in transaction OAWF if the responsible users are
    assigned to the workflow tasks
    Menu path: Basic Functions
                 Assign tasks to agent
                    Correct worklist
                    Release worklist
                    Correct and release worklist
3, In addition check if the users are assigned to the workflow-tasks      in the basis-component (transaction
     PFTC).
   Menu path: Task type: TS   - Standard task
       Task     : corresponding task (e.g.8010 - correct worklist
The relevant logic is: if the system finds that the agent or user is defined, it will go straight to T-code SO01. And the user can edit the work list there.

JSP source for the Administration tools?

Hi,
I would like to know where I can find the JSP source for the Administration tools? I downloaded WLCS 3.1.1 a while ago and I thought that it would come as part of the installation but it didn't. Is there any other place to get the source files?
Thanks!

Hello Hugi,
The WLPS/WLCS admin tools are a webapp called "tools". See your weblogic.properties file:
# Defines the admin tools Web Application.
weblogic.httpd.webApp.tools=C:/wlcs/wlcs311/server/webapps/admin/tools.war
(my installation dir is "C:/wlcs/wlcs311")
Because you have the Web Application, you have the JSP source code (see http://www.weblogic.com/docs51/classdocs/webappguide.html )

I read a way on another forum to fix this problem. Right click on the setup.exe and select "Run as administrator" this should solve your problem.

How to disable password expiration for the administrator?

Hello
is it possible to disable the password expiration for the administrator? For all other users the password should expire after 90 days but not for user administrator.
How would this look like with LDAP integration? I assume that user administrator is not replicated to LDAP and exists only in the local UME database, thus it would work like without LDAP. Or is my assumption wrong?
Thank you in advance for your answers.
Best Regards
WB

Hello Harikiran,
thanks for your answer.
Yes I found the setting in VA:
Global Configuration > server > services > UME provider >
ume.logon.security_policy.password_expire_days
or in Configtool:
Global Server Configuration > services > com.sap.security.core.ume.service >
ume.logon.security_policy.password_expire_days
But for me it sounds that this will apply then for all users that are managed in UME, not only for the administrator. Are you sure that this is only for the administrator?
What is with the users database table in WEB AS Java? Does somebody know the name of this table?
Regards

ERROR : - No administrator found for the task

hi ppl,
I have done a work flow which will trigger whenever a purchase order is created and in that WF i a put an Activity which displays the particular purchase order in business work place. The WF is getting triggered and when i execute the work item in the business work place. in says this error No administrator found for the task what exactly is this error. can u plz help me out.

Hi Hari:
I think is because you had not define the Task Properties.
Enter to the transaction SWDD, find your activity and then enter to the Task Properties, Red button.
Select the name of your activity and then in attributes you have:
- General Task
- General Forwarding allowed
- General Forwarding not allowed
- Forwarding not allowed
Use General Task.
I hope this will work.
Best Regards,
Jessica
