Page customization of Supplier Edit via Workflow

Hi,
I have a custom collection in Supplier and Supplier Modification via Workflow object (10002203).
In page customization of Supplier Modification by Workflow, I am setting this custom collection as NOT Editable
But when I open a Supplier by clicking Edit via Workflow, this collection is still Editable.
Please suggest how can we achieve this or am i missing anything.

Hello Vaibhav,
This is actually related to a recent thread Help required for Page Customization test
As it turns out such a page customization will not work (it applies for all collections, standard or custom).
A solution for this is to use custom scripting to achieve this result using IapiDocumentLockManager.
Also note that to fully lock a collection you need to use it like so:
1. IapiDocumentLockManager.lockField(session, doc, "collection_id"); -> disable add/delete buttons
2. IapiDocumentLockManager.lockField(session, collection_row, "collection_field"); -> lock field in collection row

Supplier Created via Workflow Approved By Default

Hi Experts,
I have a requirement in Create supplier via workflow where I have to make
Purchsing hold check box unchecked and Approved Supplier check box
checked by default ,I have customized the vendor registration via
workflow process wherein I have written a script to make Approved
supplier checkbox under header checked by default,in supplier creation
via workflow page but When the workflow ends and the supplier is
approved and I click on Done and come out of document,the Approved
supplier checkbox is unchecked though the supplier is created and we
are getting a background error as well saying that the approver does
not have enough permission to view the document though we have provided
all the necessary rights to the Approver, please suggest as what could
be the rerason for Approved supplier to be unchecked though the script
is running fine and what could be the reason for background error as
this is not the expected behavior.

Hi Dhiraj,
Thanks for yor reply , I have written the code in script.and the issue is resolved by writing two scripts .

Lightroom Metadata editing and workflow is tedious nightmare!

I'm new to Lightroom in just the past month, but have used it enough to see that a serious interface problem makes Lightroom version 1x virtually unusable in a deadline-oriented publishing workflow. Lightroom's Metadata editing and workflow is just a terrible nightmare, and far too tedious and slow. It appears to be an afterthought implemented by good-hearted souls who've never had to edit this sort of information under serious deadline pressures. I know Lightroom is marketed as an image database and not a file browser, but we're all looking to simplify our workflow here and with just a few subtle enhancements, Lightroom could be an excellent file browser and file import manager too.
As it is now, the Lightroom v1x handling of File Naming and Renaming, Metadata Editing and Keyword Editing is poorly implemented and in need of an immediate overhaul to help professional photographers expedite this crucial and time-consuming first step in the archiving workflow. While Lightroom is very good at many other tasks, I give it a big fat "F" of a failing grade for these tasks.
First, the Lightroom Library Module needs an even more simple, linear interface that steps users through a precise procedures (and helps them remember them). Arguably, to accomplish this, the Import function may need to become a separate Module that can be selected and used separately before entering the Library. As File Naming and Renaming, Metadata Editing and Keyword Editing currently are implemented, I, for one, am always forgetting to fill out one of these critical sections and can't even seem to remember that some may need to be done before importing while others appear to be conceived to be done after importing. My point is, all these related steps really need to be done together, but the Interface spreads out the functions too much, and it is nearly impossible to build a logical and linear Import workflow, especially when you are first learning Lightroom.
I'd like to see a workflow that walks me through applying and editing (in order), File Naming, Basic and IPTC Metadata, Captioning and Keywords, so that I don't always forget some obscure step in the process (which I keep doing). Here are some specific suggestions, some of which may prove to be valid, some of which may be problems due to my lack of experience with thye software.
1. As currently implemented, Metadata editing requires too much thought, and does not have enough intelligent automation. Eliminate as much typing as possible (See Photo Mechanic!)
2. Lightroom needs better Metadata Presets. A "Quick Edit" view to simplify interface for editing minimal metadata info (File Name, Basic Info, Keywords, Headline, Limited Copyright Info).
3. Separating Keyword Tags, Metadata Browser, Keywording Presets and Metadata Presets confuses the workflow. They should all appear together under one selectable module that organizes a suggested, linear workflowfor these tasks, but allows it to be customized. This is the sort of tasks that need to be learned by rote memory, and having all these panes floating around on both sides of the photo make it impossible to quickly step through these tasks.
- Name (or Rename) files, Edit/Apply Basic and IPTC Metadata, Edit/Apply Keywords, Import or...
- Import, Name (or Rename) files, Edit/Apply Basic and IPTC Metadata, Edit/Apply Keywords, Import
4. Rename should offer the option of renaming the master file names on the disk, not just file names in the database (which I think is what Lightroom does, but again, this is very confusing for new users)! So, it is my belief that this feature needs a checkbox option to rename one, the other or both. But you need to be able to quickly find this dialog box every time you do an import, and it should not be hidden away out of view under the Library menu. Ideally and logically (for workflow), File Renaming should be handled when starting the Import into Lightroom.
This is critically important because many user

Lightroom metadata editing Part 2 (see Part 1 at top of thread)...
...This is critically important because many users just do not want to trust their images solely to any database and we want the ability to go look for master files with identical names should something go wrong with the software or we decide to edit the file in Photoshop outside of Lightroom or even switch to another library software program.
My own habit is to rename every file with the date followed by a unique, three-digit file number, as in 20070717_001, 20070717_002...up to 999 etc. (I have never shot more than 999 files in a single day, but this could be a four-digit number). To file these on disk, a folder with a similar naming scheme is created for each day's shoot, although a keyword slug is added to the end instead of file numbers.
5. Metadata Presets (Basic Info, IPTC metadata, EXIF metadata), Keywords need to be able to toggled on or off (promote/demote-expand/contract). Turning Off/On one section at a time via the Metadata Presets popup menu is too tedious...and you can't display IPTC and Large Caption together or leave Large Caption turned on. It also is difficult to remember where the Large Caption default (Preferences) setting is...
6. Please get the EXIF data out of the way entirely when editing captions and visa-versa...And the EXIF data should not separate Basic Info and IPTC Info fields. Please relocate the EXIF to the bottom of the Metadata pane...
7. IPTC Content, IPTC Copyright, IPTC Creator, IPTC Image expand/collapse sections need more automation:
- The Presets fields need Preset lists of entry choices for cities, states, countries, etc.!
- ISO Country Code automatically should be filled in when a country is entered.
- Date created automatically should be filled in from camera EXIF data
- Metadata Presets "Save As" should fill in old name, and allow you to rename it; (When it appears, the new name field should not be empty. This would aid in consistent, alphabetical naming
- Metadata Presets naming should support job names, with actual Presets saved under each job name...
8. IPTC Status EXIF, Contact, etc.
- Caption field MUST display more than one line...(6-8 lines)!
- Caption field MUST support Shift/Return!
- Headline (IPTC Content) should be displayed with (and above) caption. Please present information logically!
- Yellow popups should describe what each field name is for...some are real brain teasers...

Editing via Speech Analysis metadata in Multicam?

I'm trying to figure out the correct workflow (CS6) for using speech analysis metadata to cut a multicam interview. I can see the metadata on individual clips. But once they're nested inside a sequence for multicam, the metadata is no longer accessible.
Is there a way to edit via speech analysis while still being able to use multicam?
Thanks!

I'd guess no. But you might try putting sequence markers in the source sequence, which has the metadata. Those sequence markers should show up as clip markers in the nested multicam sequence.

Travel Request Approval Scenario via Workflow does not trigger

Hi guys,
System Information: SAP ECC 6.0 EHP4 / Using WDA-Scenarios on Portal NW 7.01.
I'm having trouble understanding/implementing the approval scenario of the Travel Request via Workflow/UWL. POWL isn't usable for us as it isn't flexible enough to process the complex agent assignment rules for the respective approver our (momentarily..) requirements 'dictate' ...
What I did so far:
I copied the Workflow Template 200000040 to a custom template (since I'll have to alter it) and activated the Event of Creation for BUS2089. Thus, in SWE2, the respective entry for BUS2089 for the event CREATED has been set by the system. All good so far. When I create a TRIP via PR05 (we are public sector), the event for BUS2089 gets fired in SAPMP56T and the Workflow gets triggered; works out well. However, when I post a travel request in Portal (FITE_REQUEST), the workflow is not getting triggered. I searched for information or similar questions on the forum but didn't find anything. Neither did I find a concrete clue in the View Containers FITE_VC_* etc..
Could anyone assist me with this? I'm sure I'm missing something very basic here.... -_-
Bottom line:
Why is my workflow not getting triggered from creating travel requests via FITE_REQUEST?
Cheers, Lukas

SWE2 linkage is activated for my Workflow number (I didn't do it by hand, it's set by the system since I activated the event in my workflowtemplate --> this way actually no inconsistencies can happen).
SWDD Tests are successful and the Workflow is working well in general. That's why I pointed out in my previous post that the process is working fine when initiated via PR05.
EDIT: Or maybe somebody knows the part in coding FITV_FPM/FITE_VC* where the workflow should be triggered? It's freaking unfindable, I've been debugging for hours. >:-(
EDIT: Debugged the entire WDA Frmaework for like five hours...feeling dead inside...someone please tell me from where the workflow gets triggered when saving travel request from portal -_-....

Approval Process of Quotes via Workflow

Dear Experts,
I'm looking for a Workflow solution, with which I can elektronically appove a Quote. In detail it means e.g. to reales a quote, two sgnatures are mandetory. These two people should be chosen inside the quote as a partner. After Savind they should get an e-mail notification and be able to approve the quote via e-mail (Outlook) or inside SAP.
Is there a possibility to do that via workflow? How? Do anybody has some experience?
Other proposals?
Thanks in advance.

1. backup the existing Update user workflow as an xml file
2. Copy paste the same in the BPE.
3. Save the copy as a new object with a different name.
4. Edit the new workflow as follows:
4.1 Create new activity
4.2 In the new activity, add a variable with some name
4.3 create a new action, and let that action be a subprocess. For that subprocess, browse and choose 'Approval' as the action.
4.4 Add a argument as name=approvalForm and value=<name of approval form>
4.5 Include argument user=$(user), etc. (Check the original approval workflow to see what the names of the arguments are)
4.6 For return to=name of the variable declared, from=approved
4.7 Add a 'isTrue' condition for the variable declared.
5. Make the appropriate transitions, and ur ready to go.
Let me know if this helps. I can post some skeleton code tomorrow. I need to work on it. Drop a line at [email protected]

When I share a pages document as a PDF (via e-mail) all the pictures change from the original document, most are missing with just a few of them repeated in the spots where others had been. How do I do this without the document changing?

When I share a pages document as a PDF (via e-mail) all the pictures change from the original document, most are missing with just a few of them repeated in the spots where others had been. How do I do this without the document changing?
I need to be able to send it to a PC in order to print it.

Hard to say what is happening without examining the file.
If you like click on my blue name and email me both the .pages file and the the .pdf you have made from it.

ps It would help to say what version of Pages you are using and on what you are running it. iOS or Mac and what version.

Creating automated email reminders to users every 2 weeks via Workflow 2010 Out of Box approach only

Hi,
I have been asked to automate the email reminders to users (every two weeks) from the SharePoint2010 solution.
I am trying to achieve this via workflow ,but am unable to get the results.
Req :
Twice a month the users should get an automated email reminder for a specific task.
1. On 14th (or last working day in mid month -1) of the month. ( a field "mid month end" captures the date as 15th of the month)
2. On last working day - 1 of the month. ( a field "month end" captures the date as last day of the month)
Please let me know how i can achieve this via Out of box functionality. I donot have exp with workflows so a detailed steps guidlines will be very helpfull.
Regards,
Guru

Although you can start a workflow and then pause it for a number of days, I'd feel uncomfortable with that. If the farm crashes, who guarantees that the paused workflows will pick up where they were left off?
SharePoint does no offer to run a workflow on all items in a list/library -- which I feel is a big draw back.
The good news is that there is a free 3rd party tool that can run a workflow on all (or specific) items in a list or library. It's called the
HarePoint Workflow Scheduler and I love it.
You can create a view that shows the items that you want to run the workflow on.
Or, if you know how to write CAML, you can feed the CAML Query right into the HarePoint Workflow Scheduler task.
At my company we have several sites in production that use the HarePoint Workflow Scheduler with a view.
So, first, create a SharePoint Designer workflow and define it to run manually.
Then use the HarePoint workflow scheduler to define a schedule.
You can define a schedule for the HarePoint tool, like every day, month, week, etc., by just clicking a few boxes.
Since this functionality does not come out of the box with SharePoint 2010, this free tool is a real gem.

Hi,
Follow this ,
Goto PFTC -> Choose "Workflow Template" from the drop down -> Enter the workflow template id "123********" in the text box -> now click on "change" button -> Now goto the menu addional data -> agent assignment -> maintain -> select the task text -> and set it as general task.
I guess you have done the same for the standard task TS*********** but failed to do it for the workflow template (WS123*************). Or have you done it already?
Also once you make this change "Refresh your buffers" once before checking it out.

Unable to debug the jspx page on Jdeveloper Studio Edition Version 11.1.1.6.0, Build JDEVADF_11.1.1.6.0_GENERIC_111205.1733.6192.1, using Windows 7 OS

Hi,
I am unable to debug the jspx page on Jdeveloper Studio Edition Version 11.1.1.6.0, Build JDEVADF_11.1.1.6.0_GENERIC_111205.1733.6192.1, using Windows 7 OS.
When right click on jspx page , clicks on Debug option, it gives the following error:
Debugger unable to connect to local process.
[Server Instance IntegratedWebLogicServer is shutting down. All applications currently running will be terminated and undeployed.]
I also restarted the Jdeveloper, even re-installed Jdev but still the problem persist.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

If the jspx page is not part of the adfc-config.xml the page can only be displayed, but the tags will not work as the adf life cycle is not involved. drag te page onto the adfc-config.xml (the unbounded task flow), right click on it and select debug from the context menu.
Main problem is : Weblogic server cannot be started in debug mode.
To check this, open the application navigator, select the integrated server, right click on it and select 'debug' from the context menu.
After a short time you should see some messages and at last you should see <Runnning> in the message log. Now the server runs (without any of your applications, but it runs).
If you done't see the 'Running' message you should see an error, which you should post here.
