Query filter for linked work items by link type

We are running TFS 2012. I am opening up my work item query in VS 2013 team explorer. I need to know how to write a query that allows me to filter OUT links of type "related" so that they don't show in the tree under the product backlog item in
the sprint. Link Type is not one of the fields present in the query editor.
Thanks.

  • Changing template for "email work item "

    Hi,
    TFS Web Access has the possibility to send the work item in an e-mail. (The enveloppe on action bar).
    By clicking on this Icon, a new window opens with some basic work item information.
    I suppose the content of the e-mail is based on a template.
    My question is: Is it possible to update this template (red box)?

    Hi Jeppen, 
    Thanks for your post.
    As far as I know there’s no default way to change that template, please refer to the discussions in this similar post:
    https://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/vstudio/en-US/2a63b27d-4bfd-413f-bff9-825d6bdc99fe/how-do-i-change-the-ides-send-work-item-to-outlook-email-template?forum=tfsworkitemtracking.
    But you can add the required column in work item query result, then select work item from query result to send email. Please refer to the workaround in this post:

  • View Memo option for a work item

    Hello,
    I am trying to include the "View Memo" option for a couple of different work items in UWL under the "You can also" section.
    The View Memo shows up fine for one work item and doesn't show up for the other. However I have similar UWL configuration for both items.
    Can any one suggest what is needed to include the View Memo option. I thought that the following tag should do it:
    <Action reference="viewMemos"/>
    The View Memo does not work for the following item: (Does not show up):
    <ItemType name="uwl.task.webflow.decision.TS20000131.ECCCLNT200" connector="WebFlowConnector" defaultView="DefaultView" defaultAction="com.sap.pct.erp.mss.tra.action.DisplayExpenseForm" executionMode="default">

    Can anyone suggest what is the difference between the above two tasks.
    Thank You,
    Jaya R

    Hi Jaya,
    The reason why you are seeing this with the first task is because you are using the action handler UserDecisionHandler, more specifically UserDecisionNote.  This is what defines the memo box.  You can see the other workitem is not of type decision and is not using the UserDecisionHandler, therefore you can't just add a memo box.  If you want to add a memo box to the other workitem, you will need to configure it like the first and check the decisions also in the backend system through the function module: SAP_WAPI_DECISION_READ or SWK_DECISION_READ.  You can find more information here:

  • Authorization to disable SAP Inbox Forward function for specific Work Items

    Hi.
    I recently solved a case for a customer of mine regarding authorizations for work items. They have several workflows running, but for this specific custom developed workflow, users should not be allowed to use the SAP Inbox Forward button.
    I started by creating a new task classification (Z_FW) which I implemented on the workflow tasks where the forward functionality should be disabled. Now for test purposes I created a dummy user which I initially gave only authorization to the tcode SBWP, then I manually added the authorization object S_WF_WI.
    For this entry I allowed all activities for work item type W and F for classification 1, 2, 3 and NO_CLASS (SAP Standard classification).
    Now to my understanding this would give the test user authorization to perform all activities on Work Items and Workflows which are classified with one of the above, but also prevent me from doing anything with Workflows and Work Items with classification Z_FW.
    However, to my surprise everything seems to work perfectly with just this entry. I am able to execute and forward work items with the standard classification, while I am able to execute, but not forward, work items with classification Z_FW.
    My intention was to add another entry for authorization object S_WF_WI, for classification Z_FW with all activities except forwarding. But when I tried that, the only change was that forwarding was enabled for the work items with classification Z_FW, which I didnu2019t want.
    Now can anyone explain to me why this is working? I am not too familiar with SAP Authorization as my area is mainly ABAP and WF, but his just does not seem logical.
    Hoping someone can give me an explanation....
    Thanks

    Does the standard function not do what you want?
    Task -> Additional data -> Agent Assignemt -> Maintain -> Attributes -> Forwarding not allowed.

  • Pulling Multiple Approver Names from Workflow Logs for One Work Item

    I have a workflow design which requires multiple approvals per single work item.  I happen to have another functional design that is also pulling data from those same workflow logs.  Assuming I have multiple approvals at various levels for a single work item which table do I need to reference along with which fields to reference the different approvers per level of approval?

    Hello,
    The same tables. The principle is the same, just more agents.

  • Mass approval functionality for SRM work items

    Hi,
    We want to implement mass approval functionality for SRM workflow, so that any user is able to approve/reject multiple requests at one go through UWL.
    Please guide if it is possible to implement this functinality for task id TS40007952.
    Regards,
    Avantika

    Hi Avantika,
    The mass approval functionality can be implemented for simple workflow items which have decisions to complete the work item. (User Decision Type)
    In SAP Business Workflow, user can define a task as a decision task by assigning DECISION as the underlying business object type. The task definition allows user to create two or more decision options to complete the task.
    The idea is to simply create a custom view/subview for the UWL item and configure it according to your needs.
    Have a look at this blog:
    Mass/Batch Processing of Work items in UWL
    and also check the documentation:
    http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70ehp1/helpdata/en/4e/72112bc9ea484196f2a5fdc68f5f5f/frameset.htm

  • Need help in getting proposed approvers for a work item

    Hi All,
        We are trying to get the proposed approvers and the actual approver details for a particular work item.
    Before the work item is actioned we are able to see all the proposed agents for that particular work item.
    But once that work item is actioned then only the agen who has actioned on the work item is appearing in the list. All other agents are not appearing.
    For this we are using the FM BBP_WFL_DIN_APPR_WORKFLOW_GET.
    We have also tried some other FM's and tables, but none of them were helpfull.
    Please let us know if you know any table or FM or class which we can use to get these details.
    Scenario:
    Work Item: 12345    
    Before action on the work item
    Possible(Proposed) agents: Agent 1, Agent 2, Agent 3.
    Actual Agent: blank
    What we want, after action on the work item if "Agent 2" acts on that item.
    Possible(Proposed) agents: Agent 1, Agent 2, Agent 3.
    Actual Agent: Agent 2
    But what we are get is:
    Possible(Proposed) agents: Agent 2.
    Actual Agent: Agent 2
    Thanks a lot.
    Regards,
    Kranthi.

    Hi,
    What did you draw those lines with ???? Just a drawLine() command ????
    If so, it is very difficult to track the exact mouse coordinates that correspond to a click at a particular place and then place an 'X' or an 'O' there !!!!
    Try implementing it with 9 Buttons placed at those specific positions. In this case, it will be very simple to track the user's input when he clicks on any of those buttons...the implementation will become really simpler.
    Check it out !

  • How can I specify an area path for the work item created on build failure?

    In our department we are working with multiple build definitions for different parts of one Team project. We heavily use the Team Project feature. Teams are defined by area path nodes, so each team can only see it's area path. No one (except the admins)
    can see the root project node.
    When a build breaks, TFS generates a Bug. Unfortunately, this bug is assigned to the area path root node, so nobody can see the generated bug and act on it.
    We would prefer to specify the area path for the generated work item in the build definition (not template, but property of a build definition), as every build belongs exclusively to one team.
    I have found that you can populate fields of the generated work item by filling the "custom fields" of the "create work item" activity. But how do I set the area path as a parameter?
    Guenter

    Hi Cuenter, 
    Thanks for your post.
    You should set the value like below in that activity:
    New
    Dictionary(Of
    String,
    String)
    From {{"Area
    Path",
    "teamprojectname\areaname"}}

  • InfoView - Query Filter for date variable of previous week

    I am trying to automate the process to generate a report for the previous week's data.  Right now I just prompt the user to enter in the start & end date/times, but I would like to somehow automate the date filtering using a Query Filter.
    In particular, the report will be generated every Thursday at 12:35 PM, and it needs to filter only the date field between the date's of the previous Thursday @ 1:31 PM, and the current Thursday @ 12:30 PM.
    I know there is a way to do this using an offset or something like that, but I'm a bit of a newbie to InfoView....so any help is greatly appreciated.  Sorry if the explanation is confusing.
    Thanks so much,
    Nick

    Hi,
    You can create two objects on universe level or first database level then add in the universe based the sysdate.
    Then go to  webi  query and  replace the prompt value by these objects and from next time when ever user refresh this report will run  without any prompt.Same thing in the scheduled report.
    Thanks,

  • Report to get cumulative effort based on child items related to parent work item

    We have created a new work item type called 'Release' 
    Release -> Features -> PBI/Bugs -> Tasks/Test Case
    I have requirement to create many reports that has to filtered across the Release work item been created. We usually slice it by Area/Iteration but here the requirement is different.
    For ex: 
    Releases Overview report:
    Release name| Owner as AssignedTo| Status Indicator | Completed Work | Remaining Work | Open Impediments
    I can fetch all the release work items (Work Items with System_workItemType =Release) w.r.to team project for this report. But for other calculations :
    Compute Open Impediments
    Find all the child items belong to the parent 'Release work item'
    Pick Open Impediments (Work_Item_Count with System_workItemType=Impediment and State = Open) in that list.
    Is this possible by querying olap ?  Or we need to go for stored procedures for querying warehouse?
    please give a fair idea to start with and good resources for learning MDX.
    Thanks
    Divya

    Hi Divya,
    Thanks for your post.
    To get the Release work items and all linked Impediments, you can try to create the Work item and direct links query, under Filters for lined work items section, set Type of trees = Parent/Child, work item type = Impediments and State = Open. Please refer
    to the information in this document:https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd286705.aspx?f=255&MSPPError=-2147217396.
    For such a Release Overview report, you need create your custom report. For the MDX resource, please refer to this document:https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms144785.aspx?f=255&MSPPError=-2147217396.
    Or contact SQL Server Reporting Service experts for the better response
    And you can also create the work item report using TFS API.
