Problem linking business workflow with ad-hoc request

Hi All,
I have a problem in creating a subprocess from a business workflow in UWL. Usually when you create a new ad-hoc request it will pop up an information saying that there is a subsequent process running.
But if i create the ad-hoc approval request from an existing business workflow (r/3 workflow) it will not give you this confirmation. Thus when i try to approve or reject it will give me an error message, because it can't find the parent task.
Has anyone knows how to fix this? Are we missing some configuration here then the standard UWL configuration? Do we have to install collaboration feature to make this function work? If yes, then how do we know if we have it in our portal, i mean how to look for it? because i'm continuing someone elses work so i don't know what has been installed.
Thanks & Regards,
Rizky

Hi
When "Advance routing" is used for Task assignment; the task service asserts the folllowing fact types : Task, PreviousOutcome and TaskAction to the rules engine. These facts gives all the reqd info about the task (like outcome of the participant, task stage .. etc)
Now in the defined ruleset; we can have rules as per our requirement that can extract info from the asserted fact types and assign task to the required/next participant.
Also note that we write the advance rules for exception cases only.
For example; let's say all participants have 2 possible Outcomes [COMPLETE, RECHECK]. We have defined the ideal task routing flow as :
Participant A -> Participant B -> Participant C. This is the flow when all participant selects "COMPLETE"
Now suppose B selects outcome as "RECHECK" then the task shld move back to A. So for this case only we need to write a advance rule.
Pls refer to the code sample at : http://download.oracle.com/technology/sample_code/hwf/workflow-106-IterativeDesign.zip
Also dev guide : refer to section 28.3.7.2 http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E14571_01/integration.1111/e10224/bp_hwfmodel.htm#BABBFEJJ
Thanks

Problem starting a workflow with a timed event.

Hi all,
I am trying to start a workflow with a timed event this way,
Start Date Expression: StringToDate("20:09", "HH:mm")
Reschedule: 1 day
I save the workflow at 20:07, but nothing happens at 20:09.
Any hints?
Thanks in advance.

Hi Thomas,
Wf-XML was implemented when XI wasn't even a glint in SAP's eye. The message arrives in the SAP Web AS and triggers a workflow directly (or responds to an incoming workflow request message).
Exception: prior to the 6.10 release of the Web AS the incoming messages are received in an ITS.
Best regards,
Alan

Problem using workflow with ess leave requests

Hello, I have been experiencing some problems using wf for approval with leave request in ess.
I customized ws12300111 for request approval and it is working fine. But when we try to cancel a request in ess, there are strange things happening:
- If the request is in status sent: the workflow gets in error.
- If the request is already in db: it starts a new workflow (ws12300111).
We don't want this because we have customized ws12300111 only for new requests. I have tried to customize absences in SPRO so that onlu new requests start the WS12300111, Onlu new requests have the workflow field filled with 12300111, but even like that, the WS12300111 starts whenever that is a cancelling or modification of a request.
I have also tried using a different workflow for canceliing (WS12400007), but in this case there is an error in ess when we try to submit.
This is really annoying, I have tried everything...

Hello,
"If the request is in status sent: the workflow gets in error."
Please always say what the error is.
" If the request is already in db: it starts a new workflow (ws12300111"
You first have to find out how this is done. Look in SWEL, it's probably via some sort of CHANGED event.

Business Service with multiple HTTP Request Methods

hi all -
I'm new to OSB and trying to prototype a solution. I have a service provider that exposes a number of HTTP operations (GET/PUT/POST/DELETE). It's a JAX-RS implementation.
I was looking to create 1 proxy service and 1 business service for that service provider. But, within my business service, I must chose a 'HTTP Request Method' and it allows only 1 type (either GET, PUT, POST, DELETE). So, I have something working, but only for a single type (POST in my prototype). I figure I could create more proxy and business services for the other HTTP Request Methods, but I'm not sure if this is the correct approach (design/architecture).
My other thought was to create a proxy service to front the service provider, but looking at the documentation, it looks like there should be a business service for each proxy service. If it's possible to use a proxy service without a business service to mediate the service provider, where would I add my URLs for the service provider in the proxy service.
My apologies on the 2 part architecture/design question. I thought the group would help with getting me started.
thanks jim

BOBJ integration into portal is in NO WAY similar to ESS business package deployment. For that matter, it is not a business package at all.
BOBJ itself is a web based application that interfaces with BW to retrieve different types of reports. So for the integration with SAP Portal you would not need to deploy any content (Except a few par files) on the portal.
Basically, for BOBJ integration you would have two options:
1. Integration using the iview template or URL iviews
2. KM Based integration
This topic has been discussed many a times and there is lot of information out there on SDN.
You can start with the following link:

Link business document with an existing archive when processing an IDoc

Hi Gurus,
I am trying to configure the linkage (Archivelink) of existing archive documents to new business documents created by processing an IDoc. Is there a standard parameterization that allows to input the Archivelink signature during the Business document creation process ?
Many thanks in advance,
Guillaume Secco

I don't see what the problem is with printing to PDF using the Adobe PDF printer as you did with the other tool. Then open your new Excel PDF and do the same process as before (assuming it worked for you). Just go to the Tools>Interactive and add a button field (I assume this is what you did before) and put the file there. At least give it a try as I think that is what you said you used to do.

Linking Oracle Workflow with Oracle Applications

Hi All,
I have created a workflow file using Oracle Workflow Builder but dont know how to link it with Oracle Applications.
Can someone help me by giving the step by step process involved to link the wft file with my oracle application.
Thanx in Advance.
K.K.Prasadh

Hi
Things ar not clear .
If it is new workflow , then you will have to modify the application to use the
workflow. I do not think you want to do that. You need to set up attributes
of the workflow and create process using Oracle flow routine.
If you want modify the existing workflow , You need the open the existing
workflow and modify without changing the itemtype. If you create a new process
in this item type the you have to assign the process in Account window
in Oracle application.
I hope this will help you.

Problems linking Web Outlook with Thunderbird portable

Hello, all...
Look, I'm getting really sick of having to have security codes being sent to other email addresses for verification. Especially since I travel a lot and use different IPs all over the country and have Thunderbird stored on a portableapps.com drive.
I also sometimes use a VPN where the IP is also dynamic.
Is there any way to opt out totally of all this paranoid nonsense? It is REALLY getting in the way.
Any help would be appreciated, thanks...

Hi,
By Web Outlook, do you mean Outlook.com?
As far as I know, there are various methods to verify your account, as this doesn't seem like an Outlook client question, for more details please post the question in Outlook.com forum below:

Extended Notifications for SAP Business Workflow

Hi expert,
i need your help!!
i have configured the "Extended Notifications for SAP Business Workflow" with the tnx SWNADMIN and this was successful. I can write emails, but i can read this only on SAP GUI with the tnx SOST. I don't receive email on my email-address.
can you say me, where is the problem?
Thank you in advance
marcel

Hi Marcel
Rope in your Basis Guy!
Basically, your Extended notif part is working fine..... emails reaching SOST is proof. Going out of SAP may need basis config.
What do you see, a yellow triangle or a red light in SOST?

SAP Business Workflow and The Workflow Reference Model

Hi Experts,
I try to map the Business Workflow with the Workflow Reference Model of WfMC.
Interface 3 represents the communication of SAP's Workflow Engine with "Invoked (external) Applications".
My Questions are:
- which applications, tools can be invoked (Webservices, Group Ware Products)
- and which component realizes Interface 3?
(can I say that interface 3 is realized with different steps like web-activity,
or the normal activity-step (WebFlow Service Handler) ? )
Or is there a certain technology that is representative for realization of interface 3 ? e.g. WfXML or SOAP?
Thanks in advance

Business workflow offline forms

Hi!
My question is: Is there any posibility to start a process in the R/3 Business Workflow with Offline Forms like in Guided Procedures with Interactive Forms sent by E-Mail. I know it's possible to start a process or work on a workitem with web-forms, but therefor you still have to be "online" to proceed. The advantage of Guided Procedures with InteractiveForms is, that the procesor does not have to be connected to the net or the system to execute the workitem - he works on it and the result is sent by E-mail when he is "online" again. So the question is, if this is possible with Business Workflow, too.

That would work. This is why we added support to PDFs in FormsCentral, so that you can fill out the form while offline, save the form so you dont have to fill it out in one setting and submit when you have Internet connection. You can definitely save the PDF on the device and submit once connected again later.
The problem your client will encounter is that they will need to save the each PDF on the device and start with a new PDF for each filler.
The workflow would look like this
- Have the PDF in Acrobat Mobile on your device (empty form)
- When someone is ready to fill the form make a copy/duplicate of the empty form in Acrobat Mobile and save it under a different name
- Fill out the copy and save the PDF
- Reapet for each filler
At the end of the day, once you have wifi, open each PDF and submit them individually.
Hope this helps
