SAP Workflow question

Hello,
I would like to know how to change a soft stop to a hard stop on SAP Workflow. Currently when we receive duplicate PO we perfome a soft stop and we would like to change this to a hard stop. Is this something that needs to be changed on the Task?
Any help on this would be really appreciated.
Thank you!
Andrea

What is this soft stop and hard stop. As long as know there is nothing in SAP Workflow jargon. Can you please elaborate what you want???
Thanks

SAP Workflow and GRC 10.1 Workflow

Hi all,
We are in the midst of upgrading our GRC system up to 10.1 and some questions are coming up about the workflows. In short are GRC workflows and SAP workflows the "same thing", i.e. if someone outside of the upgrade project were to learn how to create/maintain workflows within GRC 10.1 would they be able to turn around and run the same transactions within an ECC 6.0 environment and create SAP Business workflows? From what I have seen so far in my searching is that, they have the same basic principle but very different implementation/maintenance.
Any documentation that you are aware of from SAP showing this would be helpful as well.
Thanks

The basic mechanism is the same, but the GRC workflows are more fixed (they leave less room for the workflow to be changed) have build in screens, and relay on the BRF engine to determine approvers etc.
Workflows in the ECC give you a lot more room for implanting the workflow however you wish (use a decision task, asynchronous tasks, develop your own custom approval screen etc.) and some time required you to implement changes to the workflow object (set a user status, release a document etc.) and don't usually use the BRF.
So I would have to say that the answer is no, someone who learned how to implement the GRC workflows will not be able to turn around and immediately create workflows in the ECC.

How to triger SAP workflow after save in t-code RMWB

Dear friends,
After execute t-code RMWB, I could click save button to save it. but my requirement is to triger the SAP workflow to send an email.
My question is, how to triger this SAP workflow after clicking save in t-code RMWB?
Thanks a lot!

Use this function module in a Exit or BADI or Enhancement spot during SAVE
SAP_WAPI_START_WORKFLOW
I THINK IT CAN BE DONE BY CREATING A SPOT IN "CALL METHOD GO_APPL->MO_RMWB->SAVE" IN PROGRAM OF RMWB

SAP Workflow: how to integrate html forms

Hello.
I have to built up a workflow, which starts with an ABAP report. This ABAP Report selects a number of persons and then an email is sent to these persons. A hyperlink should be in this email and the person should click at the hyperlink, which opens an html-form. In this html-form some data is filled in and then is sent to our SAP HR system where we start again an apab report.
My questions:
1) is this a typical process for SAP Workflow?
2) What pre-conditions regarding our SAP HR system do we have (do we need ITS)? Where can I find an example for such a workflow with html-form?
3) Is this state of the art? Please tell me some SAP keywords that I can continue my investigation.
Thanks a lot.

Hi,
Then, you should activate Workflow Extended Notification component.

SAP Workflow as Enterprise BPM tool?

Howdy,
     This doesn't seem to fit in BPM Methodology Forum.... nor is it a purely technical question of SAP Workflow.
Another part of our company is starting vendor evaluation process for possible purchase of BPM tool (IBM Lombardi, Appian, Tibco, etc) after ruling out open source options.   Should I suggest they look at SAP Workflow & UWL as "existing/free" option we own?   Will it cleanly manage events from non-SAP applications?
Background:
1) We've never adopted SAP Workflow (expertise limited); maybe have three to five in Production.
2) Enterprise BPM requirements are to integrated various applications/events from various platforms worldwide (75% of events would not be SAP centric).
3) We've discontinued our XI server... all we had from SAP was SUS Interface (in 6 yrs). We have Tibco EMS & BW for middleware connectivity.   Will SAP Workflow/UWL function without SAP XI - will it integrate with Tibco?
4) Large population without SAPGUI., use UWL now from some actions... would need to use UWL for Enterprise access - or should consider BWSP?
Anything else that would help to answer the general question of using SAP Workflow for non-SAP events/data?
Thanks,

I was hoping for a better answer.... a work-around to use our Tibco infrastructure (repl XI) and "hooks" into SAP.   Darn....
I wasn't finding very many articles, etc. that were encouraging SAP Workflow as an Enterprise BPM.
But thanks for your experience and reply....

Polling for files using SAP workflow

Hi all. First of all, I am not sure if this is the correct forum for this question.. Please let me know if it needs to be moved.
I need to know if it is possible to use SAP Workflow to keep looking (polling) for files in a certain directory? I know I can do this in XI, but need to know if the same capability is available within Workflow? If it is possible, can anyone tell me how / where to find the information on how to do it?
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Cheers,
Thomas

Hi- Both the ways are possible
1. Extended Notification (you need to configure and schedule prog.) which will send email automatically to outlook (based on user's mail id in SU01D) whenever the approver receives new approval task and the email will have link to Approve/Reject (based on the underlying WF step). When approver clicks on the link, it will ask for user id/pwd and approver can take decision
2. You can also send plain email notification in WF using mail step to outlook and based on the mail, approver can take action from inbox

SAP Workflow integrated with Microsoft Outlook

Hello All,
I have the following question. When an work item comes in the SBWP inbox, as soon as the work item is executed by the user
the workitem disappears from the SBWP. Now my question is if SAP Workflow is integrated with Microsoft Outlook (so that email containing the work item as a link reaches Outlook), is there a way to make the email disappear from the Outlook as soon as the SAP work item is completed.
Can someone throw some light on the same.
Thanks,
Sachin

Hi,
Duet workflow scenario is available. SAP Application sends workitem to Duet Server and Outlook client has Duet add-in. You need Duet Server and user license.
Also SAP MAPI Service Provider is available. You can access SAP Inbox items from your outlook client. I think SAP MAPI Service provider is free.

Masa

Including SAP Workflow with TDMS timeslice

Hi there,
we would like to include the SAP Workflow in a TDMS timeslice for an ECC6 system. By default this is excluded as described in note 1159279.
On this forum I found a posting [TDMS : Does not transfer content from certain area; which tells you basically which tables to include. Below an overview from the tables mentioned in the other posting.
The following tables are involved in Workflow:
SWW_CONT u2013 Container Contents for Work Item Data Container
SWW_CONTOB u2013 Container Cont. for Work Item Data Container (Only Objects)
SWWLOGHIST u2013 History of a work item
SWWORGTASK u2013 Assignment of WIs to Org. Units and Tasks
SWWUSERWI u2013 Current Work Items Assigned to a User
SWWWIHEAD u2013 Header Table for all Work Item Types
SWD_BINDEF u2013 Workflow definition binding
SWD_CONDEF u2013 Workflow definition: Binding (runtime + definition)
HRP1000 u2013 object description
HRP1001 u2013 object relationship
My question is : Can anyone confirm that these tables are the only one or do we need to include more tables? SAP is not confirming this as they say that we should ask for consulting services regarding this question.
kind regards
Herman Berkhoff

It is suggested that you start with this set of tables and once the target system is build do the necessary validation and in case you find that you need to transfer any other table the same can be done using the TDMS troubleshooter.

SAP workflow architect with 9 years, newbie to OpenText VIM

Hi,
I understand that unlike SAP workflow, most of the out of the box requests which clients come up in OpenText, are to be done by the use of ABAP classes and configuration. Please let me know a suitable place, where I could learn this or let me know, what exactly is to be done here.
Thanks!
Varges.

Hello Vargesh,
Please feel free to ask any queries. I will try to answer your queries. You can even email me too if you a too many questions.

CAF Java-Based COs with SAP Workflows as Runtime Environment?

Hi Folks,
we have a big CAF project hitting us at the moment.
Due to the heavy load we expect we do want to have the traditional SAP workflows as the runtime environment for our GPs.
As far as I know we can transfer WFs designed with CAF GP to the R/3 WF system, right?
My question is know: Can we still develop in Java our CAF objects and use them as we would do that in a portal based GP??
If this should be possible - is this creating an overhead killing the benefit we gain by shifting from portal to the ABAP stack?
Any hint is appreciated!
helge

Hi Helge,
Technically, there is no transfer from Guided Procedures to the R/3 Workflow since the process definitions still stay in the GP Design Time. The business logic still takes place on the Java Stack. Only the low-level workflow operations are delegated to the r/3 Workflow.
That's a difficult dilemma that you are facing right now. As far as I know, the configuration to get Guided Procedures running against the Business Workflow (R/3 Workflow) is quite complex and time consuming. Main pain points are callbacks registrations for background steps, user mapping and endpoints configuration. These are the main tasks. But to reach the right configuration, you will have to be tricky and patient.
Furthermore, there will be an overhead due the RFC Roundtrips between the Java Stack and the ABAP Stack.
Hope this helps you.
Best regards,
David

SAP Workflow Scenarios

Dear all,
We are planning to implement SAP workflow, for the creation of material master and info record of the materials. We are using SAP 4.7 version. Can you give me any idea or hint about how we can configure these cases. Is there any standard workflow on SAP? If you can also send me documents or web address would be appreciate.
Thank you for your help

RED Workflow questions with Mac Pro (including third party plugins)

Hello all,
I’ve been searching many forums for the better part of a day trying to get some workflow questions sorted. I’m experiencing (very) slow export times, and mediocre playback for a machine that should be screaming fast.
Here is what I’m working with:
2014 Mac Pro
-2.7 GHz 12-core intel xeon E5
-64GB Ram
-Dual AMD FirePro D700 6GB
-1TB Flash Storage
Editing all footage off 96TB Raid 6 mini-sas server (getting about 1100mbs read/write rate according to AJA system test) which is faster than any Thunderbolt/TB2 drive array I have.
Media I work with is footage from the RED Epic (normally 5K) as well as DSLR footage from the 5d.
Software:
-PrPro CC 2014 (8.1)
-Magic Bullet Looks 2.5.2
My question(s) pertains to RED post-pro workflow in combination with third party plug-ins and the different approaches to make it more efficient.
Right now, majority of the clients need a 1080p HD master, and they are generally anywhere from 2-8 minutes (usually). So my sequence settings are as follows:
Video:
Editing Mode: RED Cinema
Size: 1920 x 1080
Audio: 48Hz
Video Previews
Preview File Format: I-Frame Only MPEG
Codec: MPEG I-Frame
1920x1080
Maximum Bit Depth unchecked
Maximum Render Quality unchecked
Composite in Linear Color checked
Export Settings
H.264
1920x1080
VBR 1 pass
Target Bitrate 12mbs
Max bitrate 12mbs
Maximum render quality/depth/previews unchecked
Issues I have:
-Playback is fine at 1/2 or even full, but once effects (especially magic bullet looks) start to go on the clips, it’s very choppy and has difficult playback at 1/4
-Export times (especially with magic bullet looks) will take the better part of 1-4 hours for a video that is 3-6 minutes long. This doesn’t seem like it should be the case for a maxed out MacPro
So my questions are:
Do these seem like the right sequence/export settings for mastering at 1080p? If not, what would you suggest?
Would using offline editing help at all?
Do you place your effects on adjustment layers?
Is there anyway to improve export settings when using an array of filters?
Have you stopped using third party plugins for their inefficiency in unreliability and switched to more integrated applications like SpeedGrade?
Is there any other tweaks that you would suggest for RED workflow with PrPro?
Should I consider switching to FCPX or (besides the iMovie-likeness) does it carry problems of its own?

The biggest issue is that most people have is that updating OS X causes certain folders to be set to Read Only. See this blog post: Premiere Pro CC, CC 2014, or 2014.1 freezing on startup or crashing while working (Mac OS X 10.9, and later).

It's a nice base system. How about an additional speedy disk for media cache files. You also did not mention which version of OS X you are running.

The Red Giant website does not indicate that this software is yet updated to work with Premiere Pro CC 2014.1 (8.1). Proceed with caution here.

I would not use this plug-in until you get the OK from the manufacturer.

Again, I suspect your plug-in.
Keep in mind that exports are largely CPU based but you can make sure that GPU acceleration is enabled for AME at the bottom of the Queue panel.

It's OK.

No need when you should be able to edit natively. Relinking might also be an issue.
thisisironclad wrote:

That's one way you can do it with the benefit of being more organized.
thisisironclad wrote:

I do. Of course, that's a preference.
thisisironclad wrote:

Try the following:
Sign out from Creative Cloud, restart Premiere Pro, then sign in
Update any GPU drivers
Trash preferences
Ensure Adobe preference files are set to read/write(Hopefully you checked this out already)
Delete media cache
Remove plug-ins
If you have AMD GPUs, make sure CUDA is not installed
Repair permissions
Disconnect any third party hardware
If you have a CUDA GPU, ensure that the Mercury Playback Engine is set to CUDA, not OpenCLYou have AMD GPUs.
Disable App Nap
Reboot

I really shouldn't answer that question.

How to route the information to approver with out involving sap workflows.

Hi Developers,
i have a doubt regarding how the requester filled form information will be send to approver with out involving SAP workflows in the portal.
Normally i know the procedure where users fills the form with the approver details, the filled information is routed to approver UWL by trigerring a function module thru webdynpro.
But i need to know is there any procedure to route the information without involving any backends.
Thanks in Advance.

Michele is correct - sneep will help you get the serial from the running domain on the M3000 ,
and it is a good idea to install STB on your machines.
If that isn't possible for you, then sneep can be downloaded directly from [http://www.sun.com/sneep]
I believe that on this platform, sneep gets the serial from the output of prtconf.
There is a minor correction to be made :
After installed SNEEP use "man sneep" for all technical details.The sneep man page is not linked into the shared man pages, so you need to use
man -M /opt/SUNWsneep/man sneep
with out going to OK prompt (Banner)It is worth noting that the serial shown in the OBP banner is not the product serial
that you will find on the physical serial tag.
The banner "serial" is the decimal equivalent of the host ID, which you normally get in hexadecimal from the "hostid" command.
