Retriving custom attributes in uwl.task.webflow.decision

Hello,
I know this question is closed. I am trying to retreive custom attributes from decisson(uwl.task.webflow.decision)uwl.task.webflow.decision.TS00008267. I am not able to do that.
I am able to retrieve ABAP_BOR object.
These attributes are not directly in container. Those attributes are located in structures ADHOCOBJECTS, _WORKITEMS, _Attachments.
How I am able to retrieve them. Can you point me to scriplets of XML.
I really appreciate your help.
Regards
Mark

Any pointers?
Thanks and Regards,

Hi Prabhakar,
This is Raji. I also need to add the custom columns in the UWL.I ahve done the same procedure as you have done in the XML code.
I have done lot many changes in the SRM config file and the standard config file.but I feel the task can be achived with out that much of complex work.
It would be great if you can share , how this issue got resolved for you. hence would be useful for everybody.
Thanks in advance!!!

Display custom attributes in UWL view

Hi all,
we're using the UWL to display SAP Business Workflow items of an SAP ERP system within SAP Portal 7.3 EHP1.
The workflow items have some custom attributes we want to display within a custom UWL view. The following image shows the basic data for the work items in SAP ERP system:
Here you can see two custome attributes "REQTYPE" and "REQNO" added to work item text. Those two custom attributes we want to add to our custom UWL view.
Therefore I created following UWL configuration:
<UWLConfiguration version="1.0">
<ItemTypes>
<ItemType name="uwl.task.webflow.TS99900019" connector="WebFlowConnector" defaultView="O2CDefaultView" defaultAction="viewDetail" executionMode="default">
<ItemTypeCriteria externalType="TS99900019" connector="WebFlowConnector"/>
<CustomAttributes>
<CustomAttributeSource id="WEBFLOW_CONTAINER" objectIdHolder="externalObjectId" objectType="WebflowContainer" cacheValidity="final">
<Attribute name="REQNO" type="string" displayName="Request number"/>
<Attribute name="REQTYPE" type="string" displayName="Request type"/>
</CustomAttributeSource>
</CustomAttributes>
</ItemType>
</ItemTypes>
<Views>
<View name="O2CDefaultView" width="98%" supportedItemTypes="uwl.task.webflow.TS99900019" columnOrder="REQNO, REQTYPE, subject, creatorId, createdDate, status" sortby="createdDate:descend" selectionMode="SINGLESELECT" visibleRowCount="10" emphasizedItems="new" displayOnlyDefinedAttributes="no">
<Descriptions default="O2C tasks for approval" />
<DisplayAttributes>
<DisplayAttribute name="REQNO" type="string" sortable="yes">
<Descriptions default="Request number" />
</DisplayAttribute>
<DisplayAttribute name="REQTYPE" type="string" sortable="yes">
<Descriptions default="Request type" />
</DisplayAttribute>
</DisplayAttributes>
</View>
</Views>
</UWLConfiguration>
Unfortunately the information for request type and request number is neither displayed in culumns of UWL view nor in details of work item within UWL.
Can anyone please tell me what I need to configure to display this information in UWL?
regards
René

Hi all,
after consulting our workflow experts we found out that we need to create "Container" objects with according names for those task types. If such container with according ID are available for the task type the information is displayed correctly.

Custom attributes in UWL is empty

Hello Friends,
I've got a problem with UWL functionality. I configured specified custom configuration xml for custom attributes in custom tab display. It worked fine about 1 week ago. At the moment there is empty value for custom attributes even the container in the backend has set this values. Steps which I've done:
1. Re-register backend system and item types
2. Check configuration on DEV system and it works fine! I have problem only on TST and PRD system
3. Standard parameters of work item like: subject, dueDate etc displays correctly
4. Import DEV xml configuration file on TST system- doesn't help
5. Recreate custom tab- doesn't work
6. Restart Portal- doesn't help
Its very important, that it happens only for work items with COMPLETED status on workflow procces (completedTask in UWL). The same parameters on the other tabs from workflow status: STARTED- display fine. There're a problems only for completed tasks.
Do you have any suggestion?
Thanks for help
Marcin

Show Custom Attributes of GP Tasks in the Universal Worklist

Hello,
I have created a GP Process and i can see and execute its task in the universal worklist.
But it only shows standart propertys like : Process,From, Sent, Due, Status.
I want to add Custom specific task propertys, but i couldn`t find the way. Reading javadoc documentation :
[https://help.sap.com/javadocs/NW04S/current/uw/com/sap/netweaver/bc/uwl/doc-files/uwldtd.html#ItemType|https://help.sap.com/javadocs/NW04S/current/uw/com/sap/netweaver/bc/uwl/doc-files/uwldtd.html#ItemType]
It says de we only can retrieve custom propertys from this connectors:
ABAP_BOR - for SAP Business Object Repository
WEBFLOW_CONTAINER - for Business Workflow container
UM - for Portal user attributes from user management
ALERT_CONTAINER - for alert container
GP_Connector is not in the list.... this means that it won`t be possible to show specific task attributes in the UWL if the tasks belong to a Guided Procedure Process?
Thanks in advance!
Marco.

Hello Chittya,
As I explained, my problem is not showing the GP tasks in the UWL ( in fact i have created a GP connector, and my GP tasks are correctly shown in my UWL ). The problem is that i can´t manage to show custom properties of this GP tasks in the universal worklist.
Regards.
Marco.

Using Custom Attributes in HBR

<p>Does anyone know how to use custom attributes to limit local orglobal HBR variables (run-time prompts)? We have business rulesthat were developed in the graphical designers and the run timeprompt was set up to limit the user's selection based on a customattribute. When these business rules are imported into EAS theywill no longer validate.</p>

Hi Maarten,
I have applied the logic mentioned above to my code. But it still does not procure any data from the container.

UWL configuration for decision step

Hi!
We are using the decision task for approving trips (TS200000118).
We've to add a decision note as described in this forum (UserDecisionNote).
How do I get the standard xml for this step to modify this.
I just found the entries in the uwl.webflow:
<ItemType name="uwl.task.webflow.decision.TS20000118.mandant086" connector="WebFlowConnector" defaultView="DefaultView" defaultAction="viewDetail" executionMode="default">
<ItemTypeCriteria systemId="mandant086" externalType="TS20000118" connector="WebFlowConnector"/>
</ItemType>
Kind regards and thanks for any hints!
Peter

Hi Peter,
As you are already aware of UWL supports a property called UserDecisionNote for the UserDecisionHandler action and can configure the XML file of UWL for this.
For example:-
Can add the following in UWL xml configuration file. And then upload the xml file.
<ItemType name="uwl.task.webflow.decision.TS90100366.SAP_ECC_FINANCIALS.SAP_ECC_Financials" connector="WebFlowConnector" defaultView="DefaultView" defaultAction="viewDetail" executionMode="default">
<ItemTypeCriteria systemId="mandant086" externalType="TS20000118" connector="WebFlowConnector"/>
<Actions>
<Action name="send" groupAction="yes" handler="UserDecisionHandler" returnToDetailViewAllowed="yes" launchInNewWindow="no">
<Properties>
<Property name="decisionKey" value="1"/>
</Properties>
<Descriptions default="send"/>
</Action>
<Action name="reject" groupAction="yes" handler="UserDecisionHandler" returnToDetailViewAllowed="yes" launchInNewWindow="no">
<Properties>
<Property name="UserDecisionNote" value="true"/>
<Property name="decisionKey" value="2"/>
</Properties>
<Descriptions default="reject"/>
</Action>
</Actions>
</ItemType>
Please refer to [link|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw2004s/helpdata/en/7a/df014b037141ca9afc6433ed42b519/frameset.htm].

UWL Task: Approve/Reject

Hi, take a look at following XML code. This task can either be approved or rejected by the user:
<ItemType name="uwl.task.webflow.decision.TS90100029.HR_System"
          connector="WebFlowConnector"
          defaultView="DefaultView"
          defaultAction="viewDetail"
          executionMode="default">
<ItemTypeCriteria systemId="HR_System"
                    externalType="TS90100029"
                    connector="WebFlowConnector"/>
</ItemType>
Following is the code for defaultView. I don't understand how the Approve and Reject buttons show up in this view? And where are the actions that are linked to these buttons defined?
<View name="DefaultView"
      selectionMode="SINGLESELECT"
      width="98%"
      supportedItemTypes="uwl.task"
      columnOrder="statusIcon, subject, creatorId, createdDate, detailIcon"

                      type="user"

                      sortable="yes"
                      format="default"
                      referenceBundle="priority"
                      hAlign="LEFT"
                      vAlign="BASELINE"
                      maxTextWidth="0"
                      headerVisible="yes">

        <MenuItem name="Low" actionRef="priorityLow" referenceBundle="menu_priority_low"/>
        <MenuItem name="Normal" actionRef="priorityNormal" referenceBundle="menu_priority_normal"/>
        <MenuItem name="High" actionRef="priorityHigh" referenceBundle="menu_priority_high"/>
        <MenuItem name="VeryHigh" actionRef="priorityVeryHigh" referenceBundle="menu_priority_v_high"/>
      </Menu>
    </DisplayAttribute>
</DisplayAttributes>
<Actions>
    <Action reference="refresh"/>
    <Action reference="defaultGlobalWizard"/>
    <Action reference="addToNavigation"/>
    <Action reference="removeFromNavigation"/>
    <Action reference="personalize"/>
    <Action reference="launchSubstitutionManager"/>
</Actions>
</View>

Ok, but I don't see where I have to specify this. If I take a look at the XLM for this task, all it says is: view="defaultView", action="viewDetail", where the viewDetail action is defined as follows:
<Action name="viewDetail"
        groupAction="no"
        handler="UIActionHandler"
        referenceBundle="view_detail"
        returnToDetailViewAllowed="yes"
        launchInNewWindow="no">
<Properties>
    <Property name="image" value="icon_detail.gif"/>
    <Property name="display_order_priority" value="-2"/>
</Properties>
</Action>
so there isn't even a UserDecisionHandler to begin with?

UWL: task visible but no action can be performed

Hi,
I have a task in the UWL in a development portal which is visible, but no action can be performed (there is no link and thus you cannot click on the task).
In the Test portal I did the same configuration and there everything works fine.
What can be the cause of this? The configuration for the task is very basic:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE UWLConfiguration PUBLIC '-//SAP//UWL1.0//EN' 'uwl_configuration.dtd' [
]>
<UWLConfiguration version="1.0">
<ItemTypes>
    <ItemType name="uwl.task.webflow.decision.TS90000024.SAP_WebDynpro_XSS" connector="WebFlowConnector" defaultView="DefaultView" defaultAction="viewDetail" executionMode="default">
      <ItemTypeCriteria systemId="SAP_WebDynpro_XSS" externalType="TS90000024" connector="WebFlowConnector"/>
    </ItemType>
</ItemTypes>
</UWLConfiguration>
Thank you for your help!
Wim

Two way to add actions to your ItemType :
Add tags
<Actions>
</Actions>
if you add it under <UWLConfiguration version="1.0"> you can describe global actions that you can then link to itemtypes or views by using <Action reference="action_name"> Where action_name is the action's name that you or standard have already declared in xml files.
You can also add this tag between <ItemType> or <View> tags. If you do so, the action will exist only in this itemtype/view.
exemple :
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE UWLConfiguration PUBLIC '-//SAP//UWL1.0//EN' 'uwl_configuration.dtd'
>
<UWLConfiguration version="2.0">
<Actions>
     <Action name="myAction" ... />
</Actions>
<Itemtypes>
     <ItemType name="myItem" ...>
         <Actions>
            <Action reference="myAction">
            <Action reference="complete">    
            <Action name="anotherAction" ....../>
         </Actions>
     </ItemType>
</ItemTypes>
</UWLConfiguration>
I assume you want to reuse standard action for standard tasks so is the <Action reference=""> option using the standard actions' names for reference vallue. You'll find most of them in uwl.standard.
For more details see the UWL DTD in sap help !!

UWL custom attributes are not retreived

Hi all,
We are trying to add some custom attributes to our UWL. We are able to see the new columns but they remain null. It seems that the values are not retrieved from the backend.
We have tried defining custom attributes from workflow container, from BOR object and even UM but without success.
We have followed this thread http://weblogs.sdn.sap.com/cs/blank/view/wlg/20379 and also other ones.
Here is my code for my custom attributes (under "TEST" comment):

I've read in this thread [UWL: Time Delay of SAP and Custom Attributes: refresh necessary|UWL: Time Delay of SAP and Custom Attributes: refresh necessary] that UWL cache and the delta pull mechanism must be configured for the new attributes but I don't know how to check it.
Please, can anyone help me?
Thanks in advance,

Custom Attributes in UME

Hi,
I have defined some custom attributes in UME.I created a user creation application which takes parameters from another application. I am using the below code to create the user.
===
IUserMaint newUser = UMFactory.getUserFactory().newUser(uid);
newUser.setFirstName(preq.getParameter("firstname"));
====
my question is How do I update custom attributes that I have defined in UME.
Any help on this is greatly appreciated.
Vasu Pabbaraju.

Venkata,
I'm sorry I can't help you with your problem but maybe you can help me with mine....I cant even get the custom attributes to appear. The task processes a BOR but i've tried with UM attributes with no luck. Can you see an error here?

</CustomAttributeSource>

Any help appreciated

Problem in retriving workitem id from uwl in abap webdynpro

Hello,
Curently, I've a problem similar with this post : Problem in retriving workitem id from uwl in abap webdynpro
But unfortunatelly there is no answer :/
I've followed this tutorial : http://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/WDABAP/IntegratingWebDynproABAPapplicationswithUWLforworkflowin+Portal
And I have a problem in my WD Abap. The WI_ID field is empty (initial).
Here is my XML :
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE UWLConfiguration PUBLIC '-//SAP//UWL1.0//EN' 'uwl_configuration.dtd'
>
<UWLConfiguration version="1.0">

                    <Property name="DynamicParameter" value="WI_ID1=${item.externalId}"/>
                    <Property name="openInNewWindow" value="yes"/>
                    <Property name="WebDynproNamespace" value="sap"/>
                    <Property name="System" value="ED1CLNT100"/>

               </Action>
            </Actions>
          </ItemType>
     </ItemTypes>
</UWLConfiguration>
Here are the parameter defined in my application :
WI_ID     000000000000     SWW_WIID
WI_ID1     ${item.externalId}     STRING
And, i've made the test with both the WI_ID and the WI_ID1 in the XML but everytime, no value at all.
Could you please help me ? It's been three days I'm looking for a solution to get my Workitem ID in my Webdynpro ...

In fact, it's quite strange, I added the menu and toolbar display and I can see that my url contains the data ...
http://<begin_of_the_url>DynamicParameter=System%3DED1CLNT100%26wi_id%3D000000629442%26WI_ID%3D000000629442%26WI_ID1%3D000000629442<end_of_the_url>
So ... how is it possible ?
And the next question, how can I get the full url so I can parse it myself ?

Personal Subarea Text in UWL- Task.

Hello Experts,
My client wants the Personal subarea text in UWL task list under sender column.
I tried to change the workitem text but the expression is too long thats why it is not accepting under subject column.
I'm attaching the screen shot for better understanding.
Please suggest me some way to achieve this.
Thanks & Regards,
Prajyot.D

Basically you need to add a new (custom) column into the UWL. Most likely you can find detailed instructions by doing few searches here in SCN. This thread should give you a good start:
Add column into UWL
Basically the process is the following:
1. Create a new container element for the task for the new field/column (in the backend system) and make sure that the workflow populates the element (this you have probably already done?)
2. Do the XML configuration part (in portal) to show the data in the container element (=custom attribute) in UWL - see the above-mentioned thread for the basics.
Kind regards,
Karri
