Objects & Attachments link in the workitem

I have a user decision workitem has an attachment of bus2013.
'Decision' BO default method is 'Process' not 'Display'.
I am testing with two user id's, both having authorizations for swo_async.
I have read in this forum that we should have a default method as 'Display; to display the attachment.
Using one id i am able to see the attachment & for second id link didn't work.
Any inputs appreciated.

Hi Indira,
First try transaction ME84A with both users to see if you can access the object outside of the workflow scenario. If not then this should give direction as to what objects are missing from no 2s authorisations.
Regards
Gareth

Launch URL/BSP from attachments link in workitem in Universal Worklist

Background info:
We have a custom business object. Default method on object in SWO1 is a custom display method. This display method returns a URL to a BSP.
When I open my workitem in SBWP and click the attachments link, it properly launches the URL which opens the BSP.
However, when I open same workitem in Universal worklist and click the attachments link, it does not properly open the BSP. It looks like it's trying to open a SAP GUI version of the object but nothing is displayed. When our developer puts a breakpoint in the ABAP code and we click the workitem link in UWL, the URL/BSP opens fine. So, UWL config must be doing something extra (added code? redirect?) that clobbers the URL/BSP launch. Anyone have any ideas/suggestions?
Thanks,
Matt
*Reminder, We are not trying to launch the BSP when you click the workitem link in the UWL list. This is the attachments link inside the workitem itself.

G'Day Matthew,
The reason this works from SBWP and not from UWL is because you have an ABAP session in between. You don't mention the type of attachment, but usually what gets executed is the default method of the object. Thus the UWL has to initiate an ITS/WebGUI session to execute the default object method - this method may contain code to launch a BSP but it still needs to get to the code to start with.
You need to find alternatives, see if Karri's suggestion does what you're after.
Cheers,
Mike

Attachments as a Link in the Activity Clipboard

Hi Experts
We are working on SAP CRM upgrade project from 5.0 to SAP CRM 2007, Support pack level 05.
Our client requirement is that, we need to enhance the activity clipboard so that Attachments of the transaction can be showed as a link in the activity clipboard in the interaction record.
As per my knowledge, the above mentioned functionality is not supported by standerd scope. Hence
Please suggest me the best possible way to get it done.
Thanks
Babu

Hi Babu,
In the activity clipboard if interaction record is attached to the service ticket then clipboard will show the activity and link on the process type. If you want to attached your custom or business specific links then you can add it. For example lets take the knowledge search path which we want to add to the clipboard we can do.
You have to add one event handler to launch if link is clicked. You need some inbound and outbound plugs for calling the view (i.e navigation).

Albert

Sending URL's to outllook which directly links to th workitem of the UWL

My project which was developed on ASP with oracle is now being re-designed into enterprise portals and SAP R/3 4.6c. Here the scenario is when a user creates or changes a pricing condition on the PORTAL .it should trigger a workflow in SAP r/3 which goes through a loop of approval process and finally gets approved or rejected.
Here the notifications are sent to the approvers outlook where the outlook subject should contain two links, the first should link to the portal UWL and the second should link to the respective WORKITEM in the UWL.
My questions are
1)     How an event on the portal side does trigger a workflow at the backend?
            Do we need to explicitly raise the event in the BAPI for create/change to trigger workflow using SWE_EVENT_CREATE or is there any alternative?
2)     How to send a notification to the outlook with URLs which directly points to UWL and respective work item in the portal UWL?
                 I gone through the EXTENDED NOTIFICATIONS FOR SAP Business WORKFLOW help file but I didnt a clear picture of it.
                         It is all with the BSPs in the help file?
3)     Its only configuration that we do in the portal to get all the work items from SAP inbox or Do we need to do any extra coding to get all the work items into the UWL ?
Please do the need full .Basically I am new to WEBFLOW. So, if possible spare some time and send me the flow and the solutions in detail.
Advance thanks
Warm regards,
Sateesh

Hi sateesh
To make RSWUWFML2 work at least you have to do:
1. Set up SAP Gatway to connect to Outlook (SCOT) as type INT
2. There are some settings additional that basis will have to carry out - CHECK OSS for that
3. Ensure all the users have home email address
4. In SO16 Tab MailSySgRP choose send email to user's home address
5. Then in SAP schedule report RSWUWFML2 (frequency should be ideally
every 10 min -depends on the volume of emails)
You will find further information in note: 733681
If the requirement for direct acces to the workitem in the UWL is very important you could do the following:
Make a copy of the report ie. ZRSWUWFMS2 and make the appropriate changes in the code and schedule that instead. This is not recomendable, since all changes made to the report by SAP will be lost to you.
Hope it helps
Kind regards

As a user of Extract, I would like to have the ability to open/access assets and information contained within smart objects or linked layers. Is this possible?

Problem:
In Extract ( Extract for PSD ) a user is unable to access assets or information from smart objects or linked layers.
Usage:
Smart Objects/Linked Layers are useful for templated web workflows
@Sectioning content allows for a holistic view with access to granular information
Possible Solution(s):
Could we create a link between to cloud files.
Could a smart object or linked layer be expanded on upload
Could we create a drop menu like the layer comps that includes related files

Hello Martin,
Our current support in Extract for Smart Objects includes showing them in the file, and using them on the backend when you request your layer(s) to be scaled while exporting (i.e., when scaling up, the highest quality image is used). We also display the colors, fonts and gradients from the included Smart Objects in the Extract Styles panel.
We have considered providing a way to open Smart Objects from within Extract, and could use some feedback from you on how this user experience would work best for you. Would you prefer option a) or b) below, and why?
a) When opening a Smart Object, it opens in the current browser window, replacing your current view of the PSD.
b) When opening a Smart Object, it opens in a new browser window, which receives focus (is the frontmost browser tab/window).
Also, if you tried to open a Linked Smart Object when the linked file is not available, what would you expect to happen?
Would you describe in more detail what you mean by: "Could a smart object or linked layer be expanded on upload?" and how you'd use this feature?

How do I add a Recent Objects direct link group to the navigation bar?

Hi
I've noticed in some of the tutorials in the eLearning section there is a Recent Objects direct link group. I presume this is a dynamic collection of recent activities the user has created similar to the My Recent Documents folder you see in the Start menu in Windows XP.
Does anyone know how to implement this functionality to the navigation bar in the WebClient UI? I know how to add a direct link group to the navigation bar but I don't see any trace of this recent objects functionality.
Cheers
Declan

Hi Vikash
Thank you for you advice. However the IMG activity Define Business Role does not allow me to add a new entry.
Instead I used the IMG activity: CRM > UI Framework > Technical Role Definition > Define Navigation Bar Profile. I double clicked on Define Profile, selected my business role and double clicked on Assign Direct Link Group. I tried to enter the Group ID REC_ITEMS but it produced an error saying Entry REC_ITEMS does not exist in CRM_UI_DLG (check entry).
Can you advise further please?
Cheers
Declan

Link in a workitem

How can i create a link in a WorkItem body? When the user clicks on the link, he should be taken to a SAP transaction, say FPL9 or any SAP transaction for that matter.

Hi,
Are you using a custom business object's method for the respective task for which you have created the workitem. If yes, in the display method of the custom business object, call your transaction , say CALL TRANSACTION 'ME21N' and set 'Display' as the default method in the business object header. The link will appear in the work item along with the key which you have specified as the 'Default Attribute' in the header. Upon clicking the link, the Display method gets executed and thereby calls the respective transaction. You can even set the parameter id with the key value and skip the first screen. Hope this helps!!

Venkat

Workflows : Objects & Attachments @ User Decision Step ?

Hi pple,
As Ramki said,I was able to create a link in the OBJECTS and ATTACHMENTS part for a normal Activity step.
But now my requirement is to create a Link at Objects and Attachments part in USER DECISION Step. Can I do so?
I tried copying the DECISION BO to ZDECISION and copied the the standard Decision task TS00008267 to my task say..TS97900168 with my BO ZDECISION, Now when I tried to include this task in the WF User Decision step, I am getting an error that I cannot include any other object other than DECISION BO.
I thought of creating a ZDECISION Business Object and change the Default method of this BO. But I am not able to include a Z Business Object in the USER DECISION Step itself.
Is there any way of instantiating the Objects and Attachments part with our own Attachment of the USER DECISION Step.
Please let us know.
Regards,
Raja Sekhar.

<i>But now my requirement is to create a Link at Objects and Attachments part in USER DECISION Step. Can I do so?
</i>
I am not sure I understand your requirement correctly. But an agent can attach objects or documents at a decision step by clicking on the Create button in the Decision step display.
<i>Is there any way of instantiating the Objects and Attachments part with our own Attachment of the USER DECISION Step.</i>
You can copy the standard decision task and define container elements for the BO references already available in the WF container. Bind them from WF to the step. These objects will then show up under Objects and attachments in the decision step.
You can use the 'Create object reference' wizard to create an object reference if it is not already available.

Open the workitem for display method

Hi Guys,
I have an issue with CRM BO BUS2000116.Actually we need to send an attachment to the workitem.so when the user executes the workitem.He/She will read the workitem text and the click on the attachment.The attachment should take into web ui page.
But we are facing a peculiar issue.We have created a task with the display method(standard).So when the user executes the workitem its directly redirecting to the web ui page.but our requirement is to open the workitem.User will read the WI text and then he may click on the attachment.

Hi- My understanding is, you need to show something to the user as workitem text and need to provide attachment. When clicking on the attachment, URL needs to open
Have you tried to create a link in a method (before the approval task) using FM- "SAP_WAPI_ATTACHMENT_ADD" . If yes, then in the CRM worklist you will see this as an link under 'Attachments' (at bottom)
You will be giving some workitem text in task description and this will be displayed at top.
Let us know your output

Objects & Attachments

Dear All,
I am using an one ZBUS2089 instance of Business object.
In Objects and attachments i have only one short cut available.
It is applicable for 2 workflow (Travel/TripExpense)
also. Both call the Same method (DISPLAY). I need
to have different method to be called for TripExpense.
How can i do this.
Regars,
Boobalan.

Hi,
This is Travel Workflow : BUS2089-->custom object ZBUS2089.
The situation is in TRIP Transaction, we have built an Userexit which shows message only while Saving or Approving. Workflow doesnot have any knowledge about it, as it is sepearte in Transaction. I have to call the Transaction itself for this. (only in CHANGE Mode)
In objects and attachments link i could be able to call the transaction (method of BOR). But this apply to
both Travel and Trip workflow. The customer wants it
in edit more only for Trip workflow and not for travel worfklow.
Both Travel Request & Trip Expense use the same BOR.
Use objects & links but the problem I face is. For both workflow WS92000004 & WS92000006 I have the same transaction called.
In the I 1st workflow one trasaction is called and in 2nd workflow another transaction is called in the Objects and attachments link.
Regards,
Boobalan.

Is it possible to create a link on the content of a text annotation??

Is it possible to create a link on the content of a annotation??? Like the content of an annotation is some notes as well as a link...
content -
this is my first annotation(notes)
http://www.google.co.in/(link)
is it possible to create a link for the url given in the content of an annotation??? On click on the url...it should get opened...
please reply its really urgent....

How/where do you want to accomplish it?
Within the document? Using Acrobat? Using another application?
Using Acrobat within the document would be possible using Acrobat JavaScript. You can access the annotation objects of your document, and you then can evaluate the properties of each of these objects. Have a closer look at the Annotation Object section in the Acrobat JavaScript documentation.
You will look for the contents property, and evaluate its content. When you have found something looking like a URL, you can create a link (using the rect property of the annotation), and you have what you want; you might then think to destroy the annotation, as it may overlay the link.
Hope this can help.
