Show Attachment in Decision Task

Hi Experts,
I have a Multiline attribute and i want to display the content of the Multi line element in the Decision Task just for the display Purpose in Table format so that it can help the user to take the Decision.
Is there any way i can attach the data inside the multiline attribute as an excel attachment in the Decision Task ??
Kindly Suggest..
Thanks in Advance...
Regards,
Vaibhav

Hi vaibhav,
Set ur internal table as something like
SWC_SET_TABLE CONTAINER 'MessageLines' IMSGTAB.
and collect this as a multi-line container element in the workflow template.
In the decision tasks you use, pass this as a container element to sdtandard task(Decision task) and in the Description tab of the task mark this as &MSGTAB so that approver can see this in the workitem description.
Hope this helps.
Please reward points if the hint is useful.
Thanks & Regards,

Object visualization to open attachment link in UWL decision task workitems

We are using Object Visualization (in t-code SWFVISU) to open an I-view when you click the attachment link in decision task workitems. I sort of have this working. My issue is that I need to pass parameters to the I-view. I'm not sure how to do that. I've seen some documentation on dynamic parms in SWFVISU (DYNPARM) but I don't see that option (maybe we are on an older version). Maybe we can via XML files? I've done Task visualization and edited xml files but I'm not sure if we can do similar code for object visualization. Does anyone know how to do this? Have any samples/documentation?
Thanks,
Matt

Not able to open "requested end" in user decision task.

Hi All,
In the user decision task, i have specified the value as +5 day in the "requested end" tab. When i executes the WF, and checks in the workflow log of work item, it shows that user decision step as logical deleted. I open that step on developement server, there value is fine as +5 day, then i tried to open that step on quality server where i am testing, when i clicks on that tab button it displays an error message at bottom of the screen "No Unit with the desired conversion factor is maintained", and with in 1 seconds it came out to initial screen of SAP.
I checked the TR, it is imported correctly.
where can be the issue then ? why i am not able to click on that tab in that user decision task, its very strange, i faced this kind of issue first time.
if you have any idea about that why it is happening then please reply.
Regards,
Raman.

Check SWU3 is properly maintained in your quality server.

How to display Material in decision task?

Hi Experts,
I want to display a material data in a WF decision task. In the spec they ask a "link".
I think the only way to do this - without process the workflow - is to create an attachment, with the Business Object: BUS1001, and with the material number as key. (Of course if you know something better, than it is also good for me)
I have a program which starts the WF, and I want to fill up the WF container from this program.
Please help me in, how should I write the code, if I know just the material number?
Please give me code sample if it is possible.
Thanks in advanced, Csaba.

Hi,
I am not sure how to the display method behaves in the BO BUS1001. You can try using that.
Or a work around solution would be create a custom method. In that
you set the material number field in the MM03 screen with the object-key.
Then use call transaction 'MM03' and skip first screen.
Hope it helps.

In Decision task, Method defined after execution is not called from Portal

Dear All,
In one of my scenarios, I am using a decision task for approval.
In that after the approval action is taken i am calling a BAPI to update business function.
I have called this BAPI in the Methods ( After Workitem Execution ) .
When I execute this task from the SAP Inbox , the method is getting called successfully and the BAPI is also executed successfully. But when I approve the task from portal this method is not getting called at all, and BAPI also fails.
Actually in the workitem display , I am using the standard FM SWU2_INPLACE_DECISION_PROCESS, will it have any impact when its used from Portal ?
Is there any common place that will be called from both SAP Inbox and Portal after the task execution , so that based on the decision taken , I can process the action at the same place.
Advance thanks for your response.
regards,
Sabari Prabhu.

Hello,
Unfortunately, that I know, there is no way to call your BAPI if you're using the standard decision JavaWD. In fact all that WD does is calling a WAPI to read the decision alternatives and then once the user has taken his decision it calls another WAPI to feedback the decision into the backend.
The blog mentionned by Pavan concerns only the secondary methods with amodal call, this is different from the before and after methods which are not supported and cannot help you for calling your BAPI. The so-called "Program exits" are not supported either.
The only alternatives I can see for you are:
- Develop your own decision screen specific for your workflow and integrate there your BAPI call. This would also give you more flexibility to show your agents the information they need to take their decision. This is the way I usually go for now.
- Change your UWL settings so that decisions are processed in a GUI screen instead of the JAVA WD screen. The main disadvantage is that you can do this either for all decision or for none of them. You can't just set that up for the decision in your specific workflow (or at least I haven't found how to do it).
To change the way decisons are processed in UWL you must first change the parameter "List of preview sections to hide" in your UWL iView to add value USERDECISION.
Then you must create a custom XML config file (or modify an existing one) in which you must customize each decision task used in your company individualy. To do that just take a standard config file and find the Item type entry for a standard decision task as an example. All you have to do is to recreate the same entry for each of the decision tasks you actually use and replace the defaultAction="viewDetail" parameter by defaultAction="launchSAPAction".

Workflow task TS00008267 ("generic decision task") not exist

Dears,
    i could not find the task TS00008267 ("generic decision task") and then i can not activate the 'Classify Decision Task as General ' in SWU3.
   any method to restore the task 'TS00008267' in my client?
BR.

Hello,
As Ketjil and Mikko have suggested if yuo cannot see the task then it is an authorization issue ot the task has been deleted or never delivered.
If you find that all tasks are missing and not just TS00008267 then it is most likely an authorisation issue. Run transaction
SU53 to see what authorisation objects your user is missing. It is related to Org Management authorisations.
If you have to transport it try transaction SE01 (Transport Organiser) it is possible to transport from system to system. Just click on Create button and then select 'Transport of copies'. Then just enter you target system and save. You can then add the
objects you wish to transport to your Target system.
Example:=============================
R3TR PDTS 00008267
In SE01, click Create => Transport of copies
=> Name the request and save
       => Click 'Include Objects' button and choose 'Freely selected
          objects'.
            =>Enter the Development class SWD and click 'Selected
              Objects'. F4 at the bottom of the list (Under the DTEL
              entry) and select the entry "R3TR PDTS" and click OK.
              Now enter the task ID 00008267 in the dialog box
              opposite it and click the checkbox (See attached screen
              shot) and then click the Execute button.
                => Expland the list and goto the task
                     => Select 00008267 and click the "Save In Request"
                        button.
You can do this with any standard tasks you want to transport to your system.
Hope this helps.

Eddie

Adding notes to decision task in UWL

Hi there WUGers,
We're looking into deploying UWL and I'm running into some "challenges."
First, we're on Portal release: SAP NetWeaver 7.0 (2004s) SPS 15, the backend is ECC 6.0 (Release: 700     0015     SAPKB70015)
What I want to do is to have the "generic decision step" allow me to enter a comment/notes when I select the "reject" option on a given work item, as I've read in numerous forums, WUG emails, etc...
The "standard" config in UWL for this task is:
    <ItemType name="uwl.task.webflow.TS00008267.EX3" connector="WebFlowConnector" defaultView="DefaultView" defaultAction="launchSAPAction" executionMode="default">
      <ItemTypeCriteria systemId="EX3" externalType="TS00008267" connector="WebFlowConnector"/>
      <Actions>
        <Action name="launchSAPAction" groupAction="" handler="SAPIACLauncher" returnToDetailViewAllowed="yes" launchInNewWindow="yes" launchNewWindowFeatures="resizable=yes,scrollbars=yes,status=yes,toolbar=no,menubar=no,location=no,directories=no">
          <Properties>
            <Property name="newWindowFeatures" value="resizable=yes,scrollbars=yes,status=yes,toolbar=no,menubar=no,location=no,directories=no"/>
            <Property name="openInNewWindow" value="yes"/>
            <Property name="display_order_priority" value="5"/>
            <Property name="IAC" value="BWWF_WI_DECI"/>
          </Properties>
          <Descriptions default=""/>
        </Action>
      </Actions>
    </ItemType>
When I created a custom XML for it (I did it verbatim according to the sample in Darren Hague's book and/or as shown in SAPHelp), and when doing so, I don't event get the decision task options to appear. All I get is "Forward" and "Cancel Assignment" buttons.
<?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.TS00008267" connector="WebFlowConnector" defaultView="DefaultView">
<ItemTypeCriteria connector="WebFlowConnector" externalType="TS00008267"/>
<Actions>
<Action name="Approve" groupAction="yes" handler="UserDecisionHandler">
   <Properties>
    <Property name="decisionKey" value="1"/>
   </Properties>
</Action>
<Action name="Reject" groupAction="yes" handler="UserDecisionHandler">
   <Properties>
    <Property name="decisionKey" value="2"/>
    <Property name="UserDecisionNote" value="mandatory"/>
   </Properties>
</Action>
</Actions>
</ItemType>
</ItemTypes>
</UWLConfiguration>
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Yours truly,
Joe Toledo

I had the same problem and it was all the XML. You need to make sure you register after you create your workflow and custom tasks. I then copied the generated XML ( uwl.webflow.clientname.xml ) to another file and deleted everything but my custom tasks. You have to do some modifications to show the decision buttons and have the note be mandatory for rejection or whatever your requirement is.
I posted this earlier at Re: Dobuts in modifying an UWL XML file. The XML doesn't show for some reason but if you hit reply on my message at the bottom and quote it, you will see it. This was a simple version with just one task.

Need 2 metadata fields from item I am running a approval workflow on to show up on the task list

I have document library "A" that contains many documents with 6 columns of metadata. I have a simple approval workflow for the library that works as it should in functionality. My users would like it if 2 fields of metadata from the items in library
"A" would show up in the Task list so they could track the tasks by the 2 fields. Can anyone point me in the right direction here to make this happen? Working in SP2010 with Designer 2010 and IP 2010.
Thanks

Hi Ross,
According to your description, my understanding is that you want to display two managed metadata fields in the associated tasks created in the approval workflow.
I recommend to edit the approval workflow in SharePoint Designer and new two task fields to display the two managed metadata fields.
Here are the detailed steps:
Open the approval workflow in SharePoint Designer and click Approval in Start Approval Process step.
Click New to create two task form fields in single line of text type.
Click Change the behavior of a single task under Customization.
In Before a Task is Assigned step, select Set Task Field under Task Behavior Actions and then set the newly created task form fields to get the values in the managed metadata fields of current item.
Please refer to the picture below(create a task form field called Managed Metadata for example and mm is the managed metadata column in the list):
Best regards.

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.

How to setup a variable attachment in SendMail task in SSIS?

Hi Everyone,
I'm using a SQL2k5. I want to configure a variable attachment in SendMail task, but I didn't find where I should go to.
In the above pic, I can only input a hard-coded path. Howerver, the file pattern is like "1-test", ''2-test","3-test" and so on. I have already created and configured the variable, but if I input say, @filename, it just doesn't work.
Can anyone give me some advice? Thank you very much.

Decision task not appearing in UWL

Hi All,
I am not able to see my decision task TS12000025 in UWL however I could see in business inbox in backend. Does anybody have any idea ?
Appreciated.
-Bijay

Hi Bijay Kumar,
In SWFVISU transaction you have to add this things.
1. Task--Give the task id which has to be sent to the UWL
2. Visualization--How you are going to view the screen (using java web dynpro) so give as Java web dynpro.
3. Screen id--For which screen your are going to assign this task.
4. Application ID--While you activate a web dynpro screen it will be providing a application id this has to be done in dynpro side and give that number in this parameter. After that if your activate the dynpro it will be giving the new application id so you have change the old id to the new one in SWFVISU transaction.
Thanks and Regards

Need Help: Workflow Decision Task not visible in NWBC for customer Task

Hello All,
I am new to NWBC configuration , need ur expert knowledge for the below issue. I have checked the treat . Approve/Reject button for SRM Approval for RFx response ,but not able to get the exact steps for the configurations in NWBC.
Requirement.
     We are working on SLM/SRM module, where we have requirement to create a custom workflow with custom Task for which we have executed below actions.
Created the Custom Workflow.
Created the custom Task with custom ZCLASS and ZEVET.
Created   Event linkages in SWE2.
After doing this we are getting the workitem in the NWBC, currently we don’t have the Portal system in place, so we are using the NWBC for all our testing.
What is the issue?
     When we select the workitem in the NWBC (UML) inbox , the Decision Task ie “Approve” or “Reject” button are not visible , where as for SAP standard Task buttons are visible.
What help we need?
When we cross check the SCN/IBM portal, found that we need to do the XML file configurations. Can you any one kindly let us know the steps we need to follow to achieve our functionality.
Thanks a lot in advance.
Thanks and Regards
Channa

You need to share the details of what Inbox you are using, configuration steps depend on it. If you aren't using portal, you aren't using UWL and there is no UML inbox. You need to get your facts straight. Most likely you are using the Business Workflow Inbox (SWF_WORKPLACE) or the Lean Inbox (IBO_WDA_INBOX). Both are based on Web Dynpro ABAP and POWL but the configuration is different. Regardless, you posted this in the wrong space. Correct space is either SAP NetWeaver Business Client or Web Dynpro ABAP.

Workflow Created Tasks not showing up in My Tasks

I'm relatively new to SharePoint and am having trouble with the My Tasks list in SharePoint 2013. Tasks created manually in any task list show up in My Tasks as expected. However, tasks that are created by a workflow using create item in list
for that same list do not appear in My Tasks.
This is true for both tasks assigned to a group and tasks assigned to a specific user.
It has proven frustrating to attempt to google this issue.
Any suggestions?

Hi briandoyle,
Did this happen to all users that the tasks created by workflow aren't displayed in users' My Tasks in MySite?
Have you run a full crawl from Search service application, and also check if creating a new task view with filter option include group, and the following posts should be useful you can check.

Generic decision Task and ABAP OO

I have implemented a workflow using ABAP OO, which has a couple of user decision steps.
Now I have made a copy of the generic decision task (8247) into my own custom task. I then copied over the code from the process method of the DECISION BO into my own custom BO. I then referenced the custom BO in my custom task. I tied this custom task to a user decision step in my workflow.
code
I had to this so that I could extend the functionality of the code to do something specific to my logic. This works fine.
However when I write the same code in a method of my ABAP class and tie it to the same custom task instead of the BO, the workflow complains while activating "TASK XXXXX cannot be used as a decision task".
Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks a lot in advance.

Hi Amlan,
What I could figure out from your query is that, you want to use ABAP OO, functionality of classes in implementing a task. Please correct me if I am wrong.
I would suggest you that Let your Workflow work with the BO, because there are certain tasks for which only BO works, implementation of classes might give some problem.

Regarding creation of generic user decision task in workfow

Hi,
Can any one please guide me how to create generic user decision task in workfow?

Hello,
Just go into the workflow builder and create a new step. Choose a Decision Step and it will make one with the generic decision task, TS00008267. Just fill in what the options are and who it should go to. The task text starts with the very generic:
Choose one of the decision options given. This completes the
processing of this step.
