SAP Portal UWL - User decision note not showing up...
I have configured the UWL to force a rejection note. However, this is not working. i.e. Rejecting works successfully (without the note).
UWL configuration is as below.
<ItemType executionMode="default" defaultAction="viewDetail" defaultView="PurchaseOrdersView" connector="WebFlowConnector" name="uwl.task.webflow.decision.TS99900008">
<ItemTypeCriteria connector="WebFlowConnector" externalType="TS99900008" />
<Actions>
<Action name="approved" groupAction="yes" handler="UserDecisionHandler" returnToDetailViewAllowed="yes" launchInNewWindow="no">
<Properties>
<Property name="UserDecisionNote" value="true" />
<Property name="decisionKey" value="0001" />
<Property name="UserDecisionTitle" value="Enter a Rejection Reason" />
</Properties>
<Descriptions default="Approved" />
</Action>
<Action name="rejected" groupAction="yes" handler="UserDecisionHandler" returnToDetailViewAllowed="yes" launchInNewWindow="no">
<Properties>
<Property name="UserDecisionNote" value="mandatory" />
<Property name="decisionKey" value="0002" />
</Properties>
<Descriptions default="Rejected" />
</Action>
</Actions>
</ItemType>
The UWL support information indicates that the correct view and itemtype (and configuration) is being used. However, one concern is that the "Supported actions for this item" does not show the - approved, rejected - actions from the above custom UWL XML.
Any pointers would be greatly appreciated. We are on version 7.0.
The complete UWL XML custom configuration file is as below.

UWL - Default buttons on User decision with note
Hello!!
I have configured a decision item from a decision task to set the user decision with note.
My decision task has 2 decision options (accept is"Validar gasto" and reject is "Devolver gasto para correccion"), but when an item for this task comes, only is displayed two buttons with the text "Decision".
This is the configuration file:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE UWLConfiguration PUBLIC '-//SAP//UWL1.0//EN' 'uwl_configuration.dtd'

</UWLConfiguration>
Somebody knows how can I change the text of the buttons?
Is very urgent, please.
Helpful answers will be rewarded.
Thanks and regards,
Manuel.I think what Karri means (or should mean ,-) is that there could be a translation issue here - and I agree with that. The texts are most likely generated in the language of the user who creates the work item. If this is not Spanish (I assume that's your logon and development language) you will not get the correct texts. So you will either need to change the logon language of the user, or translate the workflow's texts. I would recommend translation, because you never know when someone might log on in a different language than the system default. It has been known to happen.

How to access Sap portal login user in ejb web service
Hi,
I wnt to access SAP Portal login user in my ejb application which resides on the same server.
I am using following code
try {
IUser user =null; IWDClientUser wdUser = WDClientUser.getCurrentUser();
user = wdUser.getSAPUser();
} catch (WDUMException e) {
// TODO Auto-generated catch block
e.printStackTrace();
Some additional jar files are required for this?
The same code works fine with webDynpro but not with ejb.
Thanks in advance

Link in User Decision step not showing correctly in UWL
Hi SAP Experts,
I have a requirement to add a link in a user decision step, this link triggers a custom webdynpro for additional input. When I access the workitem from Business Workplace, the link is showing fine. But when I execute the workitem in UWL, the link is not displayed, instead the code is shown (<a>...</a>). Please advise on what I should do to have the link working. Thanks in advance.Hi,
This same thing was just recently discussed. I just cannot find the thread anymore (well, in that thread there was not really any solution). Basically the hyperlinks in work item do not seem to work in UWL as they should. I don't know if there are any way to make them work. My suggestion is to not use the hyperlink at all and replace that with an action (=button) to the task in the UWL. This can be achieve quite easily by simple XML configuration in portal. If you have worked with UWL this should be quite straightforward for you, or if there is a consultant at the site, who is familiar with UWL, this should be simple for him/her.

HREF in user decision task not working in UWL?
Hi All,
We're on ECC6 and portal version 7.01 SP4.
My problem is that I have defined a link in the body of a user decision task like so..
<A HREF="http://www.google.ie/" target=_blank> GOOGLE </A>
and while in appears as a link in the task in the UWL, clicking it does nothing. When I check the properties of the link, I see that it's actually javascript:void(0);, so hence it doing nothing.
Can anyone give me any guidance on how to get a link working in a user decision task in the UWL?
Thanks in advance,
Liz.Hi Patrick,
Thanks for the respnse, I've since figured out that what I was trying to do was not possible. I have impleneted a workaround myself, where I just added an extra button action in the UWL.
Many thanks,
Liz. -
User decision activity not going to the agents(Position Maintained).
Hi All,
I assigned a specific Position in the agent field of the user decision activity. But after assigning, the decisiion step is not going to the expected agent but it getting executed by the WF-BATCH user.
I have checked the same in the Tcode : PO13 and the corresponding user is the only one maintained for that position.
Kindly guide what can be the possible reasons. Is there any thing i am missing.
Thanks,
Neslin.Thanks.Yes.Latest start and latest end are already maintained and there is a Rule when the latest start missed also. kindly let me know how i can avoid this also..
How to check whether the position is maintained to the SAP user id?.I have seen the user maintained under the position in Tcode PO13..
The deadline is calculated 4 days after sydatum.
One more thing the Workitem got reserved by the WF-batch and executed by WF-batch.

User Decision with Note - Where are comments stored?
We are interested in using the "UserDecisionNote" property in our XML file for a User Decision workitem. (This allows a comments text box when a user clicks accept/reject for example)
How and where are these commens stored? As an attachment?
Thanks,
MattSorry, I should have stated what our goals were. We currently capture comments with an activity step right after a user decision step. This happens as an immediate popup/dialog because of synchronous dialog chains in SBWP. We may then put the comments in a subsequent email step, subsequent workitem text, or custom table.
You cannot do synchronous dialog in Universal Worklist. So, we were investigating UserDecisionWithNote property of XML file for task. However, it appears the comments are stored as an attachment and not passed as text back to Task/WF (which I'm hoping someone on this forum can confirm). If they cannot be passed back as text and are indeed stored as an attachment, then in theory we need a way to get the comments out of the attachment. I'm not aware if anything allows us to parse attachments, etc.

Please suggest what can be done to solve this issue
Yaa Martin is right please check the Translations has been maintained for the Logon language in which the user is logging in. You can check the table entries of SWDSTEXT.

Objects and Attachments in User Decision Step not possible
Hi all,
I have designed a workflow where during the 1st step(Archivelink image display) I am able to display archived image, and in the inbox for the first workitem I can see the Objects and Attachments link related to the image.
But my second workflow step(is userdecision dialog), I would like to see the same archived image link as the in the previous workitem under Objects and Attachments.(I dont want to create a new attachement)
Can somebody tell me how can I accomplish this task.
Thnks
YogiHello,
what you need todo is to use a container binding from the single step task from the 1st step where you bind the image object to the workflow container.
Then in the user decision task you create a container element which refers to the image object. Then use a binding to 'send' the object from the workflow container to the task container.
Kind regards,

SAP Mailbox in user decision scenario
I am using user decision step in BPM.In BPM ,steps are receive -> user decision(first branch is having send step,scd branch triggering alert).Whenever message comes in PI,alert will goto SAP mailbox for approval via user deceiosn step.I hve created alert category in ALRTCATDEF psecified mail title and content.In sap mailbox ,title of mail is user deceiosn1 and no content in email.Please tell me how to get content in sap mailbox mail
You can check what are the changes that are done from Changedocument tables like CDHDR and CDPOS
Please make sure to put filter such that the rollback change does not trigger new Workflow. You can achieve this using SWB_COND by maintaining start condition.

User export does not export all users....
Hi all,
EP60 SP2 P4 HF8. Datasource is Database.
I'm exporting all users via the Export/Import iview in the User Administration role. However, the export file only shows part of all the users, not all. SAP Note 801393 descibes this problem exactly, but the proposed solution does not work either.
Any ideas?
Kind regards
Marcel RabeHi,
I've got the same issue.
When using the export function from the portal, the user list is not complete.
The stream seems to be cut off when too many users need to be exported(Length/size issue)?
Did someone find a solution?
Thx,

Hello,
We are thinking about implementing the BI 7.0 and publishing some reports with it in Portal. Question is should we use the BI portal or SAP EP portal? We are already having SAP EP 7.0 installed and BI portal (with BI) is also installed.
For performance reason -- we should use the BI portal for report and links these reports in main SAP portal so user has one single point of to see the report from SAP EP.
My thoughts on performance on single source of (main) portal for BI and all the other stuff on main Portal should not be an issue because all the work for querying the reports will be done in BI server, Portal is only show the reports ? is this assumption is correct?
If we have two portal, as system admin we have to maintain two different portals,
What be the best approach (pro and cons) using the BI Portal VS SAP Portal?
Please advice.
