Refresh the values in multiline container

Hi All,
Can any one help me on this.
How to refresh the values in multiline container of workflow.
Any function module are available to refresh the multiline container .
Thanks,
Harsha

Hi,
What do you mean by refresh?
Have you tried SAP_WAPI_WRITE_CONTAINER? Always check workflow functions SAP_WAPI for any workflow functionality. If you don't find one for your purposes within SAP_WAPI*, the functionality probably cannot be achieved (at least not easily).

Passing values from multiline container

Hello Gurus,
I am new to workflow and I have a requirement wherein I have a multiline container element (DiscDocStatus of type EDISCDOC-STATUS) filled with the status values.
If all the values in container DiscDocStatus are 10 or 11, then I need to execute certain steps (step A and step B) and if any other value than 10 or 11, then I have to wait for 10 days and then do step A and step B.
Could you please how to do it?
P.S. I know...I am asking tooo silly thing...but do not have any option but to ask...apologies....
Thanks

Hi..
In that case you can try as below & i checked the same. it works for me..
1. Create a block step in your workflow... In local container tab of block step create a single value container element which has
data type as line type of your multiline container...
Say for eg: your multiline container has datatype as (char10) with multiline checkbox enabled then create this container element in
local container tab with datatype as (char10) without multiline checkbox (ideally you can compare multiline container as internal table
and this single line container as workarea)..
2. In control tab of block step do the binding from multiline container to single line container. Leave the Block type dropdown in control tab as standard.
3. Put a condition step within block with condition as single line container NE 10 and NE 11. (So in case the multiline element has even a single value which is not 10 or 11 then workflow control will enter this condition). Place a container step in outcome True of condition step to set a flag variable as X (Note: Create this flag variable in workflow container)
4. Now outside the block again put a condition step which checks whether this flag variable is set as 'X' (if it has value X then it means that multiline container has atleast 1 value other than 10 & 11. If not it means all values are either 10 or 11). So If flag is X you have to wait for 10 days and then do step A and step B. If not you can execute steps A & B. For waiting for 10 days you can go for requested start deadline which will send the workitem to the inbox of approver only if the mentioned time period/deadline (in your case - 10 days) expires.
Let me know in case of any issues.

How to test the rule if multiline container is passing to the task?

Hi Experts,
                  I am working on leave workflow. I have to get the approvers based on no of days of leave and leave type. I am getting these details in ITEMS_TAB internal table. I am passing this table to a rule. Now my problem is when I tried to simulate the rule I am not getting any input screen to enter the data.
ITEMS_TAB is an internal table type of   "PTREQ_ITEMS_WF_TAB_FLAT".
In the rule I have created a container by selecting the radiobutton "ABAP Dict. Data Type" and entered the above reference parameter is it right way?
Is it possible to test the rule independently if I use multiline container as import parameter in my rule? If so can anybody please tell me how to test the rule?
Thank You.
Srija.

Hi Pavan,
                 Thank you.
                 To copy the values I am not getting any input screen to input the values. I observed one thing that the type that I am referring in the Rule is a deep structure. Is this is the reason that I am not getting the input screen to enter the values?
I tested by creating aother rule by taking a field for that rule I am getting the input screen to simulate the Rule.
Can you please suggest if the rule will not work then what I have to do? without the rule how can I get the agents?
Thank you.
Srija

Not Able to Pass the Values to WorkFlow Container

try this code and include this in your corresponding include.
Make sure that your workflow has a multiline import element with the same name as of the internal table. Here, WERKS.

Reg: Refreshing the Values saved in the View

Hi,
I'm having a popup window, it is getting opened when i click on link. in the popup view i'm entering some values and saving it and closing the popup.
the problem is when click the link and open the popup again, i'm having the saved values there, but i need a refreshed page.
How to do this, Help me out with detailed procedure
Thanks & Regards,
Suresh

You would be saving the values in some context...
why dont you invalidate the context node every time you open the view wdDoInit() method...
In the pop window's wdDoInit() method....write following:
wdContext.nodeXYZ().invalidate().
where XYZ is the node with attribs containing the data.

Receiver determination step in the BPM and multiline container

i have made a file2file scenario where:
there is a BPM,
the BPM has a send step which contains a receive step,
a transformation that mapps the incomin message to two messages(Split-messgae case),
and then a FORK step which sends the two messges to through 2 SEND steps to the intended receiver services.
It didnt work......and i followed a blog-> /people/sudharshan.aravamudan/blog/2005/12/01/illustration-of-multi-mapping-and-message-split-using-bpm-in-sap-exchange-infrastructure ............... which suggested to have a
"receiver-determination" step in the BPM before the SEND step.... it says that this
"receiver-determination" step will put the message in a MULTILINE container..
i m confused bout this step ........ can anybody explain.....
please help

HI,
In receiver determination step selctthe multi line container element.in container editor create the one element with type as receiver and select the check box.
A Receiver Determination step returns set of receivers configured for the output abs interfaces in the directory and puts it into receiver which is a multiline container receiver element

To hold the value of a container in BPM

Hi,
How to access the value of the counter outside an infinite loop in the BPM, i have to use the counter calculated in the first infinite loop in the next while loop.
Let me know if any one has done this..
thankx,
Shree

You mean inside the same BPM?
If that's so, you can use the local container you are using as counter wherever you want in the BPM. So, you can change the container in a step and use the same container (read its value) in any steps after that.

Henrique.

Execute action is not refreshing the values in the VO

Hello,
I'm using JDeveloper 12C.
I have a view object with my fact table and i set my where-clauses in a method in the AppModule and it updates the sizes and values depending on the query i pass.
I have anothe view object that gets the distinct fk_store ids from my factTable and i execute the VO to get the updated distinct ids but it is always showing all the distinct ids and not the actual distinct ids.
Here are my queries and code:
(for the distinct ids)
SELECT distinct (FactSales.FK_STORE )
FROM v_fact_sales_new FactSales
(code for getting the updated ids from the fact table)
        BindingContext bctx = BindingContext.getCurrent();
        BindingContainer bindings = bctx.getCurrentBindingsEntry();
        OperationBinding executeWithParams5 = bindings.getOperationBinding("Execute");
        executeWithParams5.execute();
        DCIteratorBinding conIter = ADFUtils.findIterator("DistinctCustomer1Iterator");
        Row[] r = new Row[conIter.getAllRowsInRange().length];
        r = conIter.getAllRowsInRange();
        System.out.println("Valor das rows: " + r.length);
If i look in the FactTable Iterator i get the correct elements, not all the elements but i can't get the distinct ids from that iterator. Any idea of why this is hapenning ?
Regards,
Frederico.

After i execute the AppModule function that executes the query passed, i make sure the FactTable has the correct values:
DCIteratorBinding conIter = ADFUtils.findIterator("VFactSalesNewView1Iterator");
        Row[] r = new Row[conIter.getAllRowsInRange().length];
        r = conIter.getAllRowsInRange();
        System.out.println("Size final depois do metodo: " + r.length);
But if i create a view criteria and use executeWithParams, which params can i pass ? the best way is to get the distinct values that are currently on the IteratorVFactSalesNewView1Iterator and thats what i want to do..
Lets say that my factTable has the following attributes: Id, FKStore, FKCustomer, .... , Revenue, etc. etc. (other measures)
I pass my query to the AppModule, it executes the query and my factTable now has 50 rows (for example, 50 rows = result of my query)..
Now i want to get the distinct FKStores, FkCustomers, etc. to highlight my Store table, my customer Table, etc. etc.
I thought i could to a execute with my VO to do that, but it access the Database where all my rows are present, not the filtered rows.
Any idea of how to do this "little change" Frank ?
Regards and thanks,
Frederico.

Refreshing the value of a field in a table and displaying it on the screen.

how do i mimimize calls to the database in the following scenario?
I need to show the latest value of a field in a table in a database through a java program. in a concurrent access environment, there are chances of multiple users getting stale values. how do I overcome this problem through code?
please advise.

There are many ways of doing this. However its worth noting that RDBMS database are not messaging, event driven systems and are not best suited to do what you want to do. You should only consider doing this if you have a low rate of changes.
You can
- Poll the database table and look for changes.
- Add a trigger to the table to record the keys which have changed. The have a query to find just the key which have changed.
- When a field changes, also send a broadcast/topic message.
- Add a trigger which sends a JMS message when a change occurs. (This is entirely DB/JMS specific, you need to find if this is possible)
Again, databases are not ideally suited to event driven, real time updates. There is no simple, clean solution.

How to pass values one by one from Multiline container in workflows

Hi,
I have used a structure in my workflow as multiline container.
I want to pass values 1 by 1 to the workflow but not all the three values..so how do i pass the values 1 by 1 rather all at a time..
kindly suggest me
Thanks,
Shanky

Hi,
Create a new container with type I and set the initial value as 1. EX : Index.
Pass your Multi-line container and this index container to a new method. Get the multi line container data's into an internal table
and read the data based on the index and append the data's to a new multiline container.
Second time increment the index container by 1. So now the value of index container will be 2.
Pass the multiline container value and index to method. now it will read the second record from the internal table.
Call the method using the loop step type.
Thanks,
Viji.

Using the values in the Nested table container

Hi All,
I have a requirement where the values present in the nested table container should be used in the item text(send mail step).
I have tried using like &req.itemtab.att [ 10 ]& as i want to display 10 element in the table att which is nested in table itemtab. Still its not working.
provide solution how to use valued in nested tables.
Thanks,
Preethi.

I really doubt , wheter you will be able to use the syntaxt which you have mentioned here.
Another thing I could not get which have mentioned as atts 10 ??
Earlier I was under assumption that your multiline element has only one field.
however in your case , I think you should put a logic in workflow and separate the date values in multiline container element, and then use this container element directly in mail step.
Regds,
Akshay
