Send TaskDefinition to Background

Hi,
I am using the following code to send a customized TaskDefinition to Background.
<Activity name="Send To Background">
     <ManualAction id="0" timeout="-1" hidden="true" itemType="suspend">
          <Owner name="$(WF_CASE_OWNER)"/>
     </ManualAction>
     <Transition to="Send Request Submission Email"/>
</Activity>
It works fine in terms of putting the Task in background. But it will always displays a "Approval Edit" Form to the end user. The page displays all the workflow variables and gives user options to either "Save" or "Cancel" the edit. Even if the user doesn't do anything (neither "Save" nor "Cancel"), the Task will continue executing as usual.
Does anyone know how to eliminate the display of this page after sending the TaskDefinition to the Background? Or are there other options to send a task to execute in the background?
Please reply to me directly. Thanks in advance!

Create a blank form, then assign that form to the manual action. You may have to disable all auto buttons in the form.
You can also add your own text to blank form, like "you will receive once your task is complete".

  • Send object to background PAGES

    Hello
    i have had my macbook for 3 days. i am still learning and trying out things i find in tutorials or hot tips. one thing i want to do is send and image to the background of a pages doc so my text will appear over the top of it.
    i followed all the steps in the hot tips but the last command wont permit. the last command is to go to arrange > send object to background. i can see where to do this but the selection is grey and i therefore cannot select it.
    can you offer me any solutions or reasoning please?
    all advice greatly appreciated!
    kind regards

    To be able to move an object to the background, it must be:
    selected,
    defined as floating.
    To define the object this way, go to Inspector > Wrap
    Select the button "Floating"
    It may be useful to uncheck "Object cause wrap".

  • Send/export the background job spool in Excel (in MHTML format) in ECC 6.0.

    Hello All,
    I have a requirement to send/export the background job spool in Excel (in MHTML format) in ECC 6.0. Please help.
    Thank you.

    Hi Jigar,
    Thanks for your response.
    Anything is like download to desktop or email is fine. But in MHTML format.
    We can download the ALV report in MHTML spreadsheet format when we run the program online. But the program is running for long time and going to dump.
    So i scheduled it as background job and downloading the output in  .HTML format. But user wants the spool/report output in .MHTML spreadsheet format.
    I can write the code. Instead of changing the existing program I would like to know is there any way (from standard SAP) that I can get the background spool in MHTML spreadsheet format.
    Thanks,

  • Send image back - background image

    Is anyone else having the issue where the options in the "arrange" section, when having an image selected, does not allow you to send it back or forward.  I can't send an image to the background with text appearing on top of it.  It's not the case with all images just a few in my document. 
    Suggestions?

    If you apply the changes to the Master Slides, then each time you use that slide, you won't have to re-apply the background. If you instead want to change the background for ALL slides...
    Then you'll do it in the above tab of the inspector. Just click on "Color Fill", set the Fill to "Image" and then choose the image.

  • Send object to background?!?

    How do I send an object/graphic to the background so that all of my text will be visable? Everytime I select the graphic, the arrange buttons become active but they do not send it behind the text. It does nothing. The edge of the graphic is covering up the number 15. Even when the text is highlighted, I'm not able to send it to the back.

    Make sure the object is unlocked and not inline in the text:
    Menu > Arrange > Section Masters > Move Object to Section Master

  • Abap report to send email in background

    Hello,
    This code works perfectly in foreground, but don't work in Background !!
    DATA: out   TYPE ole2_object,
             outmail TYPE ole2_object.
    CREATE OBJECT out 'Outlook.Application' .
       CALL METHOD OF out 'CREATEITEM' = outmail
       EXPORTING #1 = 0.
       SET PROPERTY OF outmail 'TO' = '[email protected]'.
       SET PROPERTY OF outmail 'SUBJECT' = 'Sending emails'.
       SET PROPERTY OF outmail 'BODY' = 'this is how u do it using OLE'.
       CALL METHOD OF outmail 'SEND'.
       SET PROPERTY OF out 'Visible' = 1.
       FREE OBJECT out.
    Any Help...?

    OLE2 is microsoft interface and require a windows station/server to be executed, so not much usable in background.
    So
    Use tools like cl_bcs (use search tool to find many samples) to send mails
    Configure link between SAP server and your mail server (e.g. Exchange) with transaction SCOT -> SAPconnect (BC-SRV-COM) - Administration  - External Sending in the SAP System

  • Sending mail in background

    Hello All,
    I have a lotus note client installed on my my machine. I want to build a java code, which will automatically sends an email in the background.
    For eg. a JFrame application with a submit button. When I click a button, a mail should be sent in background using lotus notes. What all configurations I need to do with my lotus notes client and also if possible let me know what all API I can use.

    I'm not sure which part you're confused about - the sending mail part
    or the background part. Doing work in the background just means
    doing it in a separate thread. For sending mail, see

  • Send Application To Background Android

    I have developed chat application targetting Windows, Mac, Android and iPhone. When a user Sign In then all the friends of that user shows in next view. On Andoid, if user presses physical back key on the device the application must go to background instead of going to previous view (Sign In View). This feature is not supported by Flex. So I have written ANE for this solution and posted here.
    To Send  App To Backgrounf at any time, use the following lines
         var ane:SampleASExtension = new SampleASExtension();
         ane.GoToBackground();
    the above class in implemented in the attached ANE.http://powerfulpal.com/files/SendAppToBackground.zip
    I have dedicated it to my late Father. May ALLAH bless him with His endless blessings and show His mercy on him.

    Salam powerfulp.im
    I use your ane in my app ( flash cs6+as3+air)
    there is some error:
    1046: Type was not found or was not a compile-time constant: SampleASExtension.
    1180: Call to a possibly undefined method SampleASExtension.
    How can I fix these errors?
    is it necessary any import?

  • Wont Send Videos in Background

    Skype Qik seems to recieve videos in the background but when I send one and switch to my start screen (dont close it out) it never sends. It just sits at sending forever. 
    I am running a Lumia 928 with a fully updated Preview for Dev OS. 

    The Windows Phone OS does not allow apps to use full bandwidth while operating in the background. So Skype Qik will upload your videos when backgrounded, but with a lower upload speed. So for longer videos it will take really long.

  • Send window to background shortcut?

    I've just got my first Machintosh and I'm slowly adjusting. It's nice to work with, but imo, not as fast as Windows XP with the static taskbar.
    However, a long time ago, I used BeOS as my main OS, which was wonderful, and I see some similarities in OS X. The main similarity is the (at times annoying) inability to maximize windows. So, I tend to stack a lot of windows on top of each other. Now, I did the same in BeOS, but that was no problem since I could right-click the top of any window in order to send it to the background. Is there a similar shortcut for OS X?
    And yes, I know about Expose and use it, but then I have to reach for my keyboard, and also click a few times until I get what I want. Direct manipulation of the windows would be faster.

    Hi eobet, If they are all windows from the same app try apple+~ to cycle through windows, or apple+tab to cycle through apps, or is this what you mean by "but then I have to reach for my keyboard,"
    Cheers
