No Workitems in UWL

Hello friends,
I have customized the ESS leaverequest using the standard WF12300111.
Workitems for leave approve appear in my SAP Business Workplace, but not in the SAP NetWeaver Universal Worklist (UWL).
I am using EHP4.
What would be the reason?

Check the configuration of SAP_WebDynpro_XSS
did you do the JCo connection ?
Here is the help documentation:
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/en/92
/a88931f2dd4631b9e8d530697d89c9/content.htm
in regards to this parameter.
IF the LeaveRequestApprover application is deployed on the SAP_Local
System, you needed the system alias of SAP_LocalSystem in the
Webdynpro Launch System value. With this setting when the user
manager clicks on the item, it will work fine.
the system SAP_Webdynrpo_XSS should have maintained the WAS properties
with the port of the portal. This is for normal working for
Leave request
the system SAP_Webdynrpo_XSS should have maintained the WAS properties
with the port of the portal.
Have you customised SWFVISU as per note 779075

Error while running leave request Workitem from UWL

HI,
While running the workitem from UWL in MSS we are getting the following error
URL http://sapdev.rediffsap.net:8000/webdynpro/dispatcher/sap.com/ess~lea/LeaveRequestApprover call was terminated because the corresponding service is not available
i.e its is not launching the Web Dynpro application.
As result I have checked the following :-
1) Maintained entries as per SAP note 779075.
2) Alias for the portal system has been set to SAP_WebDynpro_XSS and UWL has been registered with this alias.
3) check entried for Task - TS31000007 APPLICATION - CatManagerApprove and PACKAGE - sap.com/msscatapproval which are set in T-code SWFVISU.
Plus I have also tried the following changes.
1) All the services in SICF are activated.
2) I have tried setting the WEBASPATH to blank and set it to /webdynpro/dispatcher and /webdynpr/dispatcher/sap.com but it does not test the WAS connection as correct, but running the Workitem still results in the same error.
I am running out of ideas now to correct this. Please help.

Shakti

Error when executing workitem in UWL.

Hi all,
we are getting a workitem in the inbox with text
"Error when generating idoc from MC doc " .
when I am trying to execute a workitem in UWL its giving error that "workitem is reserved for a different agent ".
Regards,
Naval Bhatt

hi.....
          it might be because someone might have designed a workflow in such a way and would have delegated there business object so that some application is trigerring his/her workflow which is producing such a message.
example:
              some one migght have created a workflow for purchase order change and would have delegated their business object. So whoever changes any purchase order then this workflow gets triggered........
solution:
              if you could find the business object related with this workitem then you can remove the delegation.

Multiple approval of workitems in UWL

Hi,
I am working on a workflow in SD related to bidding/entitlement management. There is a client request that, the user should be able to select multiple workitems in UWL and then click 'approve' to approve the multiple workitems selected. If so, how?
Thanks,
Sheik.

Hi,
Normally UWL iViews appears with radio button for each of the workitem in the list.
It can be customized using Decision Views. For e.g. converting radio boxes to check boxes to enable
mulitple choices etc.
Look into Decision View configuration part of the UWL.
Hope it will give some pointers.

Portal Runtime Error when opening Webflow workitem in UWL

Hi,
I have recently configured the UWL to pick up workitems from SAP workflow on a background system. The workitems are appearing OK in the Task folder. However, when I try to open a workitem by double-clicking on it, I get the following error:
Portal Runtime Error
An Exception occurred while processing your request. Send the exception ID to your portal administrator.
Exception ID: 05:33_30/09/10_0010_24209150
Refer to the log file for details about this exception.
NB. This only seems to happen for items that would be shown via the SAP GUI (E.g. a Confirming a task completion or user decision). The workitem runs OK if it is for a task that is visualised as a Web Dynpro app and specified in transaction SWFVISU.
I have not configured Delta Refresh options in the Workflow Administrator so do not know if this is a possible reason (I assumed that this would not cause a problem and would simply mean that refreshes only occur once every 60 seconds). Any help would be greatly appreciated. I am fairly new to Portal & UWL I would also be grateful if someone could tell where I can find the relevant log files referenced in the original error.
Regards
Simon

Hey Simon,
Welcome to UWL :). Portal Runtime Errors in UWL don't always signify that there is a UWL issue. This could be a permissions problem, etc. I'm not sure what version of the portal that you are using. But here is a little trick for you when checking logs...you can enter in the following: irj/servlet/prt/portal/prtroot/com.sap.portal.runtime.admin.logviewer.default
and check the log file with the id that was given in the error.
Exception ID: 05:33_30/09/10_0010_24209150 is your exception id. Search for the log files in the default trace and see what the exact error message is. If you can post this here it would be great.
The log files can be found in the following location:
/usr/sap/<SID>/JC<InstanceNumber>/j2ee/cluster/
server<number>/log
or by entering the URL that I mentioned above.
Please let me know in the next reply what the portal version is:
You can get this information by doing the following:
a. log on to the portal
b. backspace out the irj/portal section of the URL
c. click enter.
d. You are now at the J2EE administration page.
e. Next, click on the system information link
f. Please click on the all components link
g. Please attach this information to the message.
I am interested mostly in the UWLJWF component but if you can attach the full software component info to this post that would be great...
Please note, that note number 1133821 is an important note that is needed in the UWL. Did you maintain your RFC destination accordingly?
Here is some additional information to help you too since you are new to UWL:

Link to a specific workitem in UWL

Hi All,
I have a requirement to send a link to the user's Outlook that takes him directly to a specific workitem in the UWL (not the general UWL page).
Can anybody tell me how to obtain this link...I know how to get to the UWL, but not to a specific workitem.
I really appreciate if you can respond to this asap as this has been holding up my development for a while.
Thanks in advance,
venu

For that functionality, you need to configure Extended Notifications if your SAP release supports it. Check out these links for more info:

Mass processing of Workitems in UWL

Hi, Gurus,
i configured UWL for mass processing of decision steps, as shown in this blog - Mass/Batch Processing of Work items in UWL
Now I need to pass some parameters for all selected workitems to workflow container, i need to transfer date to container of each selected wi.
Standard action "submitUserDecisions" working good, and before approval it shows window with 'Are u sure?". I need to replace this window
with own window, where the user can enter the date, and then pass it to container and complete tasks. Is it possible?
I'm not familiar with UWL, an have no idea how to do this...
Maybe I need to add button to view wich starts my WD4Abap application, but how I can pass selected items (items where user select custom attribute - radiobutton) into it? please help....
Thank you.
Regard's,
Mayorov Oleg.

Hi,
Interesting question. I am a bit sceptical about that this would work. I see the following things that you should be able to achieve:
-You need to have your own custom application instead of the standard pop-up (somehow implemented within submitUserDecisions) -> might be difficult/impossible(?)
-You need to add a new container element to the task that will take the date value -> easy
-You should be able to transfer the value entered by the user to the container element -> again I see this difficult. Event with standard "single" user decision you don't have this kind of functionality (well you have an option to use a free text box, but you cannot for example define a date field), so I don't understand how SAP would support something like that with this mass approval functionality.
Not much help, but at least something. Maybe I would start investigating that what happens when you press the mass approval button (probably some function module is executed). Finally I guess that you should somehow be able to build your custom action & action handler, and when you would press that, a web dynpro application would pop-up, etc. I am not sure whether this is even possible. I hope someone else will have better ideas.

Karri

Open PDF Adobe form from workitem in UWL

Hi,
We have a requirement in which a workitem is gettng generated from workflows, And it comes in UWL, So when we execute that workitem it should open a adobe form for notificaton so that approver can reject or approve that notificaton in PDF, But it is openng a SAP transaction rather then adobe form.
we are on ECC 5.0 and portal verion is 7. we are using standard workflow WS5000041 which generates the workitem. It works perfectly fine in ECC 6.0, As there are different standard workflows in ECC 6.0 but the working is same.
Thanks.

HI
I think you might have missed out to configure the respective task ID and its respective visualization parameters in the SWFVISU transaction.
Iam not sure what is exactly the flow in the ECC5.0 but if you look at the workflow template , it again incudes a subworkflow, in which you actually have the approve form standard task the task number is TS50000075 and in the swfvisu txn the task is already configured with visualization paramters as Webdynpro aplication and Name sape sa SAP, I think you have to add one more parameter in the DYNPARAM

Hi Saurabh
Please check following things:
1) xml configuration file has entry for your workitem.
2) if not please configure workitem.
3) Re-register your system.
4) Also check for Adobe run time environment.
Hope this will help you.

Netweaver - agent assignment to the workitem in UWL

Hi ,
1.How is the Standard task of sap r/3 bound to the workitem(which shows the web dynpro java screens) in Universal Worklist?
2.How the agent of this workitem is decided/assigned?
Thanks and Regards,
Hemalata

Hello,
Good, Extended Notifications should always be used (where available) instead of RSWUWFML2.
You say:
"I am sending my workitems into outlook using the extended notification. I can aopprove and reject the workitems from the mail."
Could you say how you did that - approve and reject from the mail? Are there buttons in the email?
Other people have been asking this in the forum.
You also say:
"However, i need a functionality where user can click on the logon link and approve/ reject from workitem."
Why would anyone want to go to the workitem if they can approve/reject from the mail?
In the link to the UWL, does it include the workitem number?
regards

Processing Workitems from UWL

Dear All
We are in the process of developing a custom recruitment solution which will allows users to raise such requests on EP(MSS) and then route these through an approval hierarchy. We are not using the ISR framework for this.
My problem is with the work item in the UWL. I am currently able to launch the custom (JavaWD) form and also update container elements back into the workitem but have so far been unable to 'Complete' the workitem and continue with the rest of the workflow.
I am using SAP_WAPI_WORKITEM_COMPLETE before which I use SAP_WAPI_WRITE_CONTAINER.
The status being returned by SAP_WAPI_WORKITEM_COMPLETE seems to be incorrect - it is STARTED rather than COMPLETE (?).
Am I missing something? We are ECC5.0 and the portal is EP 7.0.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Regards
Ravi

Hi Ravi,
It should be like, after executing your code in RFC enabled Custom FM, you require to set the status of this Standard Task to COMPLETED using the above mentioned Function module.
I am not so sure what WORKITEM number you are trying to send to this function module as input, is it the workitem number of this standard Task or Workitem number of the Workflow?
That's the reason, I am asking you to test it manually.
Test it manually and check if the control goes to the next step.

Workitems in UWL

Dear Guru's
We have a problem opening webdynpro when clicking on a workitem in the UWL. The following error appears:
Service not reached:
URL http://caliban.carectrl.lan/webdynpro/dispatcher/com.sap.xss.hr.lea.appl/LeaveRequestApprover call was terminated because the corresponding service is not available.
Finding possible solutions in sap note 779075 and the link, /thread/1262333 [original link is broken], we followed the exact corrections. The step we took:
- correct packages in transacton SWFVISU
- Define sytem alias parameter for task TS12300097
- register the work items in the UWL
- emptied cache from UWL
The XML file looks okay now (see info below), however clicking on the remaining or new work items in the UWL still results in the same error. Why is the UWL still looking at com.sap.xss.hr.lea.appl and not at sap.com/ess~lea ? Are we missing some steps ?
Help needed.
Kind regards.

Hi all,
Thanks for your reply. In order to your comments I think I found another interesting thing, namely that our customer has defined its own UWL configuration with prioriy set to the highest level. Keeping this in mind the Iview from this configurationname is not modified while registering the work items for the standard UWL.
So we downloaded the configuration xml file and changed the path form com.sap.xss.hr.lea.appl to com.sap/ess~lea and uploaded this new xml file in the portal. Clearing the cache did not resolve the problem. Also adding the SYSTEM_ALIAS in SWFVISU and the xml did not work.
Digging deeper in the problem we found out that the URL was incorrect and not referring to the local host.
