Reg : Advancing With Workitems

Hi All,
I am working in 4.6 with Purchase Requisition Workflow (Overall Release - BUS2105).
The requirement is when the user rejects & saves the PR in ME54 I'm supposed to give a pop-up screen to enter rejection text.
I tried various options like using SOFM-COMPOSE, calling text editor function modules via methods/reports/transaction codes etc.
But everytime the user rejects the PR and saves it, he is taken to his inbox where that new workitem is present. Then he has to execute it seperately. I don't want the user to go back to his inbox to execute the workitem again. I want to advance with the workitems without going back to inbox.
How can i achieve this?
Thanks & Regards,
Raj

why dont you call the text editor FM in some of the userexits or badi before save.
There check for the condition..if PR is rejected....then call the FM and get the rejection reason

Urgent !!! - 'Advance with Dialog' option with Enterprise Portal - Reg

Hi Gurus,
I have the following requirement. My system is Ecc 6.0 When the user rejects an expenses report, he/she needs to put the comments for which i have a custom method to pop-up a box for entering the comments. I have this task with 'Advance with Dialog' option. This works fine. But, when the workitem is executed through Enterprise Portal, the 'Advance with Dialog' option is not working and the user is receiving a separate witem(after refreshing his UWL) for this task. This is not what i want.
Can anybody tell me how to do it, IF it is POSSIBLE.
I went through SDN and found Raja sekhar's blog below where it was told this option is not available as in Dec, 2005.
I was just wondering if anybody can tell if this option still doesn't work in E.P ?
If not, can you tell me anyother way to get this functionality work. I need some pop-up for entering the reasons for rejection.
See below for the blog that i referred to :
Advance with Dialog - is not working in E.P.
As this is very urgent, your immediate response is highly appreciated and rewarded.
Thanks in advance,
venu

Hi Venu,
the later versions UWL supports a property called UserDecisionNote for the UserDecisionHandler action: http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw2004s/helpdata/en/7a/df014b037141ca9afc6433ed42b519/frameset.htm
With this functionality, you can achieve what you need (= UWL asks for the rejection reason immediately after clicking on Reject).
Hope this helps,
Mikko

Issue with 'Advance With Immediate Dialog' - Reg

Hello Gurus,
We are on ECC 6.0 with the below system details.
SAP_ABA 700 0015 SAPKA70015 Cross-Application Component
SAP_BASIS 700 0015 SAPKB70015 SAP Basis Component
I have this strange requirement / issue. I have a User-decision step as step # 1 with 2 Outcomes (Release & Reject). If 'Release' option is chosen, then I need to display the same user another User-decision step for further decision. This works perfectly fine with the "Advance with Immediate Dialog' Flag. But now a new requirement came to run some background step in between these 2 decision steps. Means, if 'Release' option is chosen, then i need to execute a background method to validate some criteria and pull out some values into a container element in the workflow container. And then depending on the value of this container element, i'll have to pop-up the 2nd user decision step to the same user immediately.
The "Advance with Immediate Dialog" is not working in this case. The 2nd User-decision step is coming as a separate work item to the user's Inbox. This will not meet the user requirement as 2nd work item should pop-up immediately after the decision of 1st step.
I understand that this flag works with SAP Inbox fine ONLY for two consecutive dialog steps(Per SAP documentation...Condition step, Process Ctrl steps are OK to be in between two dialog steps). But i need to have some way of executing a piece of code at the end of step# 1 User decision and bring back some values into this container element.
I could have used the concept of 'Programmed Binding' between WFLOW <----> TASK containers. But, the problem is these steps are User decision steps with DECISION.PROCESS, which is a std Business Object and Method. And i cannot modify this std. BO / method, just for this purpose. It'd be really laborious to have a custom DECISION Business object and method etc..
Has anybody had similar requirement.If yes, how did you resolve it ?. Any other better ideas to achieve the above requirement would be greatly appreciated.
Thank You In advance for your timely help
Regards,
venu

Hi,
1) Why does the background step has to be between the decision steps? Can't you get the same data already before the first decision step? (I am just wondering that what changes your first decision step can make in the database, so that you need to get this new data after the user decision step.)
2) One option for you is to change the background step as a dialog step. Just put the Advance With Immediate Dialog on for it too. And use the same agent as in the previous decision step. => Since you don't have any user dialog in the step it will be executed "automatically" and the user does not even know that this step was executed - he will only see the following dialog step. Just make sure that user has needed authorisations to do the things required in the background step.
3) Another option could be to check if you could use a functional method of an ABAP class. Refer to Jocelyn Dart's blogs about OO in WF if you are not familiar with this stuff. Basically you could try to execute a functional method (including your code) from a container operation step that you could place between the decision steps. That will fill your container. Anyhow, I am not absolutely sure how this will affect to the "Advance With Immediate Dialog". Maybe the container operation with a functional method will stop the process similarly as happens now in your WF.

Update should happen with user id using advancing with immediate dialog ??

Hi Experts,
I am trying to use the advancing with immediate dialog: My workflow is using HCM forms: The approver approves the form and I want the next step to execute immediately. I made the recipient the same as the actual agent of the work item which just completed. The new step goes into a ready state in that agent's inbox, I signed on as the user to execute and it works fine.
What other steps are required to make the task execute immediately without going to the user inbox? The task calls a BOR object which has synchronous object method and object method with dialog checked. The task has advance with dialog checked.

Lolanda

Hi Viji,
Yes, I want the actual user name from the previous task which approved the item to display on the infotype 8 record as changed by. I thought I would be able to have it executed automatically by setting the step condition to create work item and complete work item condition. I have not been successful in the background. It completes the task but I am not sure it is calling the routine. Is there a way to debug the task. It is passing all breakpoints.
regards,
Lolanda

Advance with Special GL Indiactor

Hi All,
My Client wants to post travel advance with special GL Indicator (Advance). I have assigned GL Account (100000) with special GL indicator to advance symbolic account. When i try to post the document in T code PRRW it is giving error message 'E F5354 Account 100000 in company code 2222 cannot be directly posted to'.
I know that this message is because i have used special GL indicator in that GL Account 100000. Is there any possibility to post with special GL indicator in travel management.
Also pls let me know is the any standard report for advances.
Thanks in advance
Regards
MR

Ok.I give you the solution.The same had happened with me also.
Execute the report S_AHR_61016401 .
Here you get to see all the standard fields.
Now click on the icon "Change Layout" or CTRL+F8. Add Advance as a visible field.
But you see that Advance is zero. RIGHT?
Do 1 thing
Save this layout with a name (Eg ZMR123). Then come out of this report.
Execute S_AHR_61016401 again.The main screen comes. In the bottom, in the field "Layout" put ZMR123.Execute.
See the adavnce field comes with the values.
Hope I have helped you

Advance with dialog option not working

Hi All ,
   I'm getting an error whenever I'm executing a particular branch of the workflow .
The workflow has one User decision box , in which if user selects "Reject Option" , another work items needs to be executed which will dispaly a popup window . For this I have used "Advance with Dialog" option .
   These things were working fine in the Dev. server but when we transported it to Quality server , it started giving an error which was "There is no chief position for <pos. no.>" .
   But when I debugged the same WF through transaction SWUS , i didnt come accross such value . I'm not able to figure it out what is the exact problem ?
   Any inputs ?
Thanks ,
Sonu M.

Hello Sonu,
Please do an auth check immediately after the decision (SU53). The first agent determination is done by either the system or the previous user. However with advance with dialog, the next agent evaluation is done by the user who performed the decision. It is quite usual for QA system's userID's to have different auths to dev.
Another alternative is not to use the rule for the rejection step, thats to use a container element PreviousAgent to pass the actual agent of your decision to step into the following step.
Hope that helps.
Cheers,
Mike

Navigation: stop automatic slide advancement with multiple click boxes

5.0 newbie question. I know I have a lot to learn about navigation before I develop another CBT, but I have done a beta test and found a situation I hadn't encountered before, so I am looking for help to get me past this with a band-aid until I can do this the right way later. I have read many issues about navigation and don't seem to see exactly what my issue is.
I am using the playbar for limited user self navigation, so all my slides have click boxes with "pause until the user clicks" properties. On some of my slides though, I have created pseudo-button like things via click boxes that popup email or browser windows (via Open URL). When I was testing these out, they worked as I hoped: opened the external window, but did NOT advance the slide. But I have come to realize that in my testing, I was always clicking on those buttons before the audio had completed and my testers are clicking on them AFTER the audio is complete. The behavior in the latter case causes the slide to advance (as well as correctly popup the external window). I don't want it to advance when the user selects that particular click box and they are not REQUIRED to click on that box, it is optional. It doesn't seem to matter how I set the properties, I get the same behavior. Suggestions O wise Captivate gurus?? ;^)
TIA

Hardware Inventory Not collecting Reg Keys with the Underscore Character

We expanded hardware inventory to collect custom reg keys dynamically (from the child keys). While the new WMI class on the machine is able to see all the custom keys, SCCM is not collecting the ones with the underscore ('-') character in the name. Does
anyone know if this is a limitation in SCCM?

Added to configuration.mof
#pragma namespace ("\\\\.\\root\\cimv2")
#pragma deleteclass("Packages", NOFAIL)
[dynamic, provider("RegProv"), ClassContext("Local|HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\\SOFTWARE\\PC\\Packages")]

CGI slideshow doesn't advance with Firefox4

with Firefox 4, this slideshow doesn't advance correctly to the subsequent frames.

Re: renaming pages. Some of the pages starting with
"Venice" work and others do not.
Your page names (URL) contain colon.
It isn't name starting with "Venice", but name (URL) that contains colon (":").
You can fix this problem by removing special characters such as colons, spaces and apostrophes, etc... from your page names.

Slides will not advance with mouse

Is there a way to advance slides without pressing the down arrowkey or manually clicking on the next slide? It seems that moving to the next slide should be as easy as scrolling down on the mouse, but it is unresponsive. Is there something I'm missing? This seems so simple yet I can't fix it.
I am not in presentation mode...I have the default view where you can edit the current slide with all of the other slides on the left bar.

I am using Lion, and the "group" of slides on the sidebar will scroll with the mouse, but you cannot advance to the next slide unless you physically click on it. This seems tedious when I'm going through my slides in class, taking notes on each. I have to click on the next slide, then click into the notes section. That's two clicks per slide, instead of just scrolling through with a gesture. This is easy to do in Powerpoint....sigh.
