Task configuation containing webdynpro hyperlink in UWL

Hi Experts,
i have a workflow userdecision task that contains a hyperlink of webdynpro application.Now we have to integrate this task into UWL.we are able to open the task from UWL but on clicking on hyperlink this web dynpro application is not getting opened.
Can you please suggest the steps to do the same.
Regards
Sonika chauhan

Hi prashant,
I am doing this for the first time..so not sure am i going in the correct way..i have a user decision task that contain following details
1.Accept
2.Reject
3.Send for review
Note for approval (hyperlink for webdynpro application)
Now since i dont need any additional functionality i did not register this task in swfvisu(as i have understood if we need to add additional functionality ,we have to create webdynpro for that task and register the task in swfvisu).so for the task,the standard config screen is opening in UWL providing me the details of task,The accept and reject button are also working fine.
Now when the user clicks on the hyperlink..it should call webdynpro application.But it is not calling.On right click on hyper link it shows URL as javascript.void(0)..that means it is not taking the URL.But where is this URL getting missed..i am not able to figure out.
Do i need to configure the task in swfvisu..if yes what would be the launcher type.?

New GP Task Items do not appear in UWL after clear item cache of GP System

HI, SDN Expert.
After I made some minor change in the GP configuration xml (changing the "createdate" format from "date" to "datetime"), I went to the Cache Administration Page to clear the item cache of my GPSystem. I went to register the item types for all system in the UWL Configuration Page.
After clearing the cache and register the item types, I started initiate some GP tasks, but now all the GP tasks are not appearing in the UWL any more.
I remembered last time the same thing has happened, but the GP tasks started appearing only after a few hours.
Now, it has been two hours wait, I still don't see my GP tasks re-appear.
I wonder any of you know whether this situation is normal? What is the root cause for this situation? And how do I fix this?
Thanks for advise,
KC

Cannot create a region from a task flow containing facelets fragments in a

hi
Please consider ADF applications migrated from JDeveloper 11g R1 to 11g R2 [1].
When using JDeveloper 11g R2 to create a task-flow containing facelets fragments and dropping it on an existing/migrated page (created using JDeveloper 11g R1) results in a message :
"Cannot create a region from a task flow containing facelets fragments in a jspx page.".
What would be "good guidelines" (do's and don't's) of using facelets aspects in an ADF application migrated from JDeveloper 11g R1 to 11g R2?
- [1] e.g. specifically JDeveloper 11.1.1.6.0 to JDeveloper 11.1.2.4.0, see also forum thread "migration support from 11.1.1.6.0 to 11.1.2.4.0"
at migration support from 11.1.1.6.0 to 11.1.2.4.0
many thanks

A team could have resources available now, and maybe not in a couple of months (related to wanting/needing to use facelets, and related to the "perceived/expected complexity" of an 11g R1 to 12c migration compared to an 11g R2 to 12c migration).
... (you know how complex this can be) ...Maybe less knowing, and more trying to find out.

Using PDF Pack to convert a .docx document containing internal hyperlinks

I just used PDF Pack to convert a .docx document to pdf format. The document contained a hyperlink to a bookmark within the document. The text converted OK, and the hyperlinked text was underlined, but not active. Clicking on the hyperlinked text did nothing. It seems that internal hyperlinks don’t convert using this software.
Thanks for any advice
David

Hi,
When you export your PDF file to Word file please select .doc format option rather than docx format for MS Word.
Thank you.

Can we call Data flow Task as Container

Hi All,
Can we call Data flow Task as Container If So what are conditions required to Satisfy as a Container
Thanks
Ravindra

Hi kavali1985,
Containers are objects in SQL Server Integration Services that provide structure to packages and services to tasks. They support repeating control flows in packages, and they group tasks and containers into meaningful units of work. Containers can include
other containers in addition to tasks.
Packages use containers for the following purposes:
• Repeat tasks for each element in a collection, such as files in a folder, schemas, or SQL Server Management Objects (SMO) objects.
• Repeat tasks until a specified expression evaluates to false.
• Group tasks and containers that must succeed or fail as a unit.
The Data Flow task encapsulates the data flow engine that moves data between sources and destinations, and lets the user transform, clean, and modify data as it is moved. Addition of a Data Flow task to a package control flow makes it possible for the package
to extract, transform, and load data. We can add Data Flow task to Containers, but Containers can’t be included in Data Flow tasks.
Reference:
Integration Services Containers
Data Flow Task
If you have any more questions, please feel free to ask.

Attachments from Workflow to ABAP Webdynpro launched from UWL

Hi All,
You might have seen a recent post from me for sending attachments from ABAP Webdynpro to Workflow.
I could do that by just calling SAP_WAPI_ATTACHMENT_ADD. I didnt have to create an instance of the SOFM object
by passing the ATT_ID from this function module.
Now the next task of the workflow which is sent to UWL, automatically carries the attachements in the Workitem.
I didnt do binding from workflow container to Task container. (I dont know how!!)
But I need to get those attachments on my ABAP Webdynpro after it is launched from UWL.
For this I am using SAP_WAPI_GET_ATTACHEMENTS. But this FM is giving me the BOR reference.
How do use this to get the attachments displayed on my Webdynpro as links?
Thanks
Deb

Hi Debabra,
I have similar requirement where I want to add new attachment from Webdynpro abap to workflow and again next level want to view it in UWL in another Webdynpro abap from workflow.
I am trying to attach the document from Webdynpro to Workflow I used FM SAP_WAPI_ATTACHMENT_ADD and looks like it attached in workflow.
Can you please tell how the second part was solved where I want to attach document from workflow to Webdynpro abap
Thanks,

Displaying URL (in work item description) as Hyperlink in UWL

Hi experts,
I have successfully configured my UWL to retrieve and display work items under "Tasks" tab.
However some of the work items contain a URL which I would like to display as a hyperlink (i.e. clicking on the hyperlink opens a new browser window and takes the user to the specified location). Currently the UWL displays these URL as plain text.
I tried to add HTML tags: <a href="http://www.abc.com">http://www.abc.com</a> to denote the URL as a hyperlink. The URL was correctly interpreted as a hyperlink on SAP inbox (transaction code SBWP). However, when it is accessed via UWL, the HTML tags are incorrectly displayed in plain text.
Please kindly advise whether any configuration can be done to the UWL such that it will correctly recognize and display the URL as a hyperlink. Any help is greatly appreciated.
Regards,
Lionel

Hi Lionel,
You can't directly do what you want with the workitem text, but there is perhaps a workaround. If you make the URL available as an element in the workitem container and include it in the text that way, you will preserve the original functionality, but more importantly you will then be able to configure a custom action in the UWL which refers to this URL. The result will be visible to your users as a seperate link or button in UWL.
See <a href="http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04s/helpdata/en/3a/648b505d764efcbbcbf7fab0e3070a/frameset.htm">URL Launcher</a> in the SAP docs for details of how to do this config.
Hope this helps,
Darren

Webdynpro application in UWL

Hi All,
I want to develop a workflow application in webdynpro which contains a stationary request form by an employee. This stationary request is send to his leave approver in his UWL task list. I want to know that this is possible through webdynpro java and if yes than how.
Rewards will be awarded.
Regards,
Bharat Mistry.

Hi Bharat,
    I have no idea of how to integrate any custom application into UWL.
        But surely alternative way for this kind of scenrio could be building custom workflow separately i.e Once requestr sends a request to partiucular approver, an email is triggered to approver.
        A separate iView is created for apporver which will be populated based on approvals pending against this approver. He can approve the requests, based on which backend flag will be updated.

Ganga.

Combine standard task (ABAP method call) and additional UWL Action Handlers

Hi, i have defined a task with an asynchronous ABAP method call and a terminating event which i want to use "as is" in the universal worklist, that means that the standard action has to be the ABAP method call defined for the task.
In addition to that i want to add an extra button to the workitem view in the worklist which opens a web dynpro application. The web dynpro needs a parameter from the workitem container. Opening the web dynpro is not required for completing the task, so i do not consider using secondary methods.
I created an UWLConfiguration for the task type without defining the defaultAction attribute, since defaultAction should not be overwritten. I wanted to use SAPWebDynproABAPLauncher to generate the button since i can easily include values from the workitem container in the call.
When executing a workitem from the worklist the ABAP method call is not performed, instead a window opens which just displays the workitem. The button to web dynpro is generated and works fine.
Does anyone have a clue how i can use UWL to define an additional button with SAPWebDynproABAPLauncher without overwriting the standard task definition?

Start both Webdynpro JAVA and WebDynpro ABAP from UWL

Hi all:
We are facing a situation. We need to start both JAVA dynpro and ABAP dynpro applicaiton from uwl. The JAVA dynpro application is the ESS absense request. And we also developed other workflow which use ABAP dynpro as work item . The problem is when we regist our ECC system to UWL, the system can only provide WAS java information or WAS ABAP. So there are alway one type of our work items can't start correctlly. How can I modify the UWL configuration to meet our requirement?
Anyone knows please notify, thank you very much!
Wayne

Hi,
when you try to register backend system , you will choose system alias which was already existing in the portal which has WAS hostname and port.
that is sufficient. Based on visualzation parameters , you can launch webdynpro abap/java tasks.
check below article

Webdynpro code for UWL

Dear Experts,
I am developing a WebDynpro application to access uwl tasks,
Have added the following code
IUWLService uwlService=(IUWLService)PortalRuntime.getRuntimeResources().getService(IUWLService.ALIAS_KEY);
     UWLContext myContext = new UWLContext();
     try {
          IUWLSession mySession = uwlService.getUwlSessionForWebDynproClient(myContext);
          } catch (Exception e) {
          IWDMessageManager myMan = wdComponentAPI.getMessageManager();
          myMan.reportSuccess(e.toString());
" The code builds and deployes.
have added tckmcbc.uwl.api as Library reference.
While running I am getting
java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: com/sapportals/portal/prt/runtime/PortalRuntime error

BPM 7.2 Tasks not getting assigned to user UWL

Hi All,
I am on CE7.2 and downlaoded NWDS for the same.
I follwed Donka Dimitrova's article to create a BPM process (name, age) application. I had earlier tried it on CE 7.11 and it worked fine. But now on CE7.2 when I initiate the process from /nwa, the first user (user assigned to the very first task) doesnt get it in UWL. I .looked into nwa and It seems like the tasks itself are not getting created because there are no tasks under "Manage Tasks" option.
Is there some configuration missing.
Note: I have assigned tasks to users in the Process in IDE and EP-BPEM UWL configuration is done.
Prem

hi,
have you run the configuration wizard?
http://yourhost:port/nwa/cfg-wizard
there is a task for BPM. just execute it.
if you have already run the wizard, you can go to following place to check and make further change if required.
http://yourhost:port/nwa/sys-config
select "Applications" tab
put "bpembaseear" in the name filter, select that application in the result table
you will see the properties tab
if your locale is not there, you can fix now.
Best regards,
John
