Translating work items text.

Hi experts,
Fort the tasks i have defined, io want to translate its texts, the ones that can be seen next to the workitem codes on transactions like SWIA.
When i go to se63 i don't know hoy to acces to the workflow task texts to translate them. Can someone help me with this please??
Thanks!
Artu.

Hi,
Login to the system with the language that you are translating for. Open the task in PFTC and maintain the texts there => they will get translated.

Change in Work item Text for Approval Workflow WS14000133

Hi,
I need to change the work item text for Shopping Cart Approval Workflow WS14000133.
I have created an Attribute in Business Object BUS2121 and called the same attribute in work item text.
In PFTC -> Redefine Work item text - > and i have defined the work item text as well called the attribute from the container.
what the problem over here is - when I am passing the attribute in the work item text in the task, I am unable to see the work item text with the Dynamic Attribute but I am able to see the work item alone (not with the Dynamic attribut)
But when i debug the workflow from SWI1 then i can see the dynamic attribute in the Container of the workflow but nt in the approver's inbox in portal..
Can you please tell me - that why is this a strange behaviour that i can see the Dynamic attributed created initially in the workflow container of the Business Object but nt in the Approvers inbox either in Backend nor in the front end...
Thanks,

How to display a message from program in work item text in workflow

Hi,
I need to display an error message in the work item text in workflow . The error message is contained in the container t_container and the field in which the error message is contained is t_container-textvarfortextelements
the text that is contained in the field " t_container-textvarfortextelements " is "Incorrect store mapping ".
I need to display "Incorrect stor Mapping" in the work item text.
I am working in 40B .

4.0B?
Just add a new element in the task container (input variable) and add the variable to the Task text. Don't forget to pass the value from the WF container to the Task.

Change N Step work item text

Hi. We are using the N step workflow with SRM 4.
We have got the workflow working fine and the approval preview is fine.
However, all the approvals have the same text in the inbox "Approve shopping cart from ...... with value .......".
We want the workflow text to contain the approval type from the approval preview.
The text is in the original workflow but it is not passed to the sub workflow and the task that creates the work item in the users inbox.
I could change the task and the binding to pass the description down, but won't that get overwritten by support packs?
Is there any other way? I've tried method SET_APPROVAL_DESCRIPTION in the N step BADI but that does not do anything. It is called but it changes nothing that I can see.
Does anyone know how we can get the step description into the work item text?
Thanks a lot for your help,
Dave.

Work item text change

Hi,
I am using standard task 8057: INVOIC input error MM
I want to display invoice number in place of work item text.
we can assign any element present is task container to work item text. But invoice number is not there in container of this task.
I need to take the Idoc number present in the container and read invoice number from one of its segments. Where and how can I do this processing?
Please help
Thank you.

hi,
i have never worked with idocs. so would not be able to guide you for anything other than the workflow logic.
i am also not aware how to get the invoice number from idoc no. but if you are able to do that then you can try the following solution.
firstly, we will deactivate the link for the standard task 8057.
then we will create a custom WF which will have the triggering event as same as that of task 8057.
we will activate the link for this WF in SWE2 with BO IDOCINVOIC and event INPUTERROROCCURREDMM.
this WF will have first step as an activity. this activity step will have a custom background task which in turn will call the custom method which will be used to find out the invoice no.
this custom method will be present in the subtype object (z object that you have created).
now you have the invoice number that you wanted.
the 2nd step of the WF will be the custom task which will be a copy of the standard task 8057 wirth some changes.
we will remove the triggering event from the custom task. (it will have no triggering event).
then our job is done.
one more thing needs to be taken care of. i.e., delegation between IDOCINVOIC and ZIDOCINV must be defined. by doing so we will be able to call the custom method of ZIDOCINV in our step 1.

Variables of work item text cannot be generated

hi everyone,
In HR Leave approval workflow, When i delete a request the 'requestcancel' event is triggered and the corresponding unapproved workflow 'WS00400078' is getting triggered. I am getting user decision workitem in inbox. When i execute it is going into error mode(red). In workflow log, I am getting the following errors,
1. 'variables of work item cannot be generated'.
2. error in the evaluation of expression '<???>&ABSENCE.VALIDITYEND&' for item '1'.
similarly for 'validitybegin', and 'description'.
and also getting error ' method container for work item cannot be created' , ' unable to instantiate object ABSENCE'.
Please provide a solution.
Thanks in advance!!

Hello,
Does this always happen? Sounds like a problem with the bindings. As the error suggests, the ABSENCE object instance isn't being created. Check in the workflow log and check those bindings.

Work item text not visible in SAP inbox

Hi All,
I have used standard task in custom workflow.
On triggering task, workitem text maintained for workitem is not triggered under title colum in SAP inbox.Instead, workitem name is visible in Inbox.
Can you please guide how workitem text would be triggered?
Thanks.

Hi,
Workitem text is associated with definition of task.
There is no need to trigger it and it will be populated in the workitem created as part of the task.
.Instead, workitem name is visible in Inbox.
Inbox???
You mean UWL.

Work item text does not come out

Hi Dear experts:
It's very kind of you to have a glance at this page. I encounter an issue that confused me.
In the title of User Decision title, I hardcode a description there and at the end of it I put a variable &1, in parameter I put a variable using F4 help. Also in the task( it is a standard task ), I using 'input variables' to insert the object type's attribute. When I execute the workflow, I load the data, the whole workflow completed successfully. But here when I access to log, I can't find the text that using the variables. Can any one help me? Thank you so much.

Hi Dear Dart:
Thank you for your time. Like you said, I created the workflow for testing. I executed it using SWUS. I load data that saved before. This is you said instantiate. Am I right?
I checked the 'importing' you mentioned in the task. In the Properties of the Object BUS1006, it is forbidden for us to maintain. And checkbox 'import' is flagged. But for 'Initial Value' is empty. I don't know if it matters as before I execute the workflow, I indeed have instantiate as you see the screen shot above. Thank you.

Translation of Task and Work item description

Hi Guys,
I'm facing the problem, that some customer specific texts like Work item text and task decriptions are not displyed in the proper language. Currently we have implemeted a new language in SRM. Since we have some customer specific texts in some work item texts (redefined text) and some customer specific task decriptions I translated these text manually. Therefore all translations are available, but the customer specific texts are not displayed in the application. Always English task descriptions and work item texts are displayed instead of Portuguese. For the standard texts Portuguese is displayed. Did I miss anything during translation?
Any help is appreciated!
Rgds.

Hello,
Maybe you should try translating in SE63. Did you try this?

Invalid URL error when displaying Work Item Attached URL Object in UWL

Hi,
After upgraded from EP6 to EP7 the user can no longer display the attached URL object of work items in the UWL Inbox. It works fine in the SAPGUI Inbox so the URL should be okay. We found below error messages in UWL log file:

Looks like the error is related to the back slashes in the URL but it was working fine in EP6. We are going to change the back slashes to forward slashes to see it will work. We would like to know if any SDNers can provide some more detail on why this is happening and if there is other solution. Any hint will be very appreciated.

Use link attachment or add button action to UWL as possible workaround. It appears that work item text can only be displayed as-is.

Jialiang.Qiu

Hi
If we talking about adding an URL in the GUI workitem display you can proceed as follows:
1. In the workitem text editor, change the editor to line editor (Goto -> Change editor)
2. enter the tag /* (Usually used for comments) to the left
3. enter the URL on the line as follows <a href=http://www.cnn.com> click here</a>

Container element in task item text and task description inconsistent

We use the purchase order release workflow 20000075: Workflow for release of purchase order
The container element Release indicator (&_WI_Object_Id.ReleaseIndicator&) is used in the PO release effected task TS20000168 in work item text (title) and task desription (body text).
When we release the PO a workflow notification is send to the PO creator, the title text shown Release indicator = Z (released) and task body text shown release indicator = Z (same).
However, we do a cancel (undo) to the release of the PO, now when we view the same workflow nofication again the task work item text (title) shown Release indicator = Z (released) and task body text shown release indicator = X (blocked) -latest status.
In this scenario the title text does not updated with the latest release indicator value, the task body text does. Task work item title text and task body text is inconsistent for the release indicator. When we view the workflow notification at this point is confused with the release indicator Z and X (approved in task tile and Blocked in task body text).
Please help how to resolve this issue, any way to make the body text release indicator does not change once the notification is generated??

This is very weird!!!!! I will suggest you to check the binding such that the PO Object is binded from Workflow to Task and viceversa.
Thanks

Please let me know the solution for this asap.I would really appreciate you for your help in this.
Thanks in advance..

Hi!
You can try playing around with mail formats in SWNCONFIG, provided work item text is formatted using tabs, however I do not think that will help. You should format task description using SAPscript formatting symbols - SWN_SELSEN should convert it to correct output format.
Or you can create work item description in HTML - that should keep formatting everywhere. Use tab "Work item display" in your WF step, there is a demo f-n module SWL0_PREVIEW_DEMO_HTML that can be used as example.

Line item text in Basket - doesn't seem to work in B2B standard

I'm trying to input some text associated with a line item in the basket and I cannot get the standard to work or my custom text type either.
The standard has a text id hard-coded as 1000 (Customer Wishes) in the SalesDocumentCRM class, but when I place an order using B2B standard, the text is not stored in the backend (CRM).
It seems to me that standard should work so I'm quite puzzled.
Has anyone else had success populating line item texts?
Any hints would be appreciated.
Regards,
Tim

It turns out to be an authorization issue.
The CRM_TEXT_ID authorization object for the text id's configured are not set.
