Trigger mitigation workflow within CUP

Hi,
I have configured the necessary workflow types, Mitigation controls and Mitigation objects. I am able to trigger workflow when I create a control in RAR. How do I go about triggering workflow within CUP?
Currently, when I create a request, in one of the stages a risk analysis is mandatory. I am able to create or assign an existing mitigation control before the workflow process can continue. This works well. However, I would like a workflow to be triggered when somebody clicks on the 'create' mitigation control button as well as when somebody assigns an existing mitigation control.
Any input would be highly appreciated.
Thanks
Mo

Hello Muhammad,
What you are saying is that you wish to trigger workflow from within CUP itself when you are assigning/creating mitigation control from within CUP, right? If i got that right then i would say that it is not possible. For mitigation control creation/assignment the trigger is only RAR application and be done through that only. Since for such workflows the request types would be type MITCTRL and MITOBJ and not CUP..
I nice feature though if it would have been there. In case i got anything wrong, then kindly elaborate so that i could get clarity.

Configuring ERM workflow in CUP issue (GRC AC 5.3)

Hi once again fellow SAP Security Folk,
Using GRC AC CUP 5.3 SP 13 I am trying to configure ERM workflow for the following scenario :
Every role change made via ERM requires approval from relevant Business Process (BP) area. If the role change contains an SOD conflict of Medium or higher then approval is required from a 2nd central approver (basically regardless of the business process area).
I have not been able to configure ERM workflow within CUP to be able to do this u2013 I have only been able to configure it for dual approval, i.e. every change must have approval from both BP approver and Central approver before request can progress. I did this by assigning the Central approver to all Business Processes as an additional approver. This means that the conditions for the scenario above are met but the drawback is that all other requests also require approval from Central approver even though they donu2019t need to, generating additional workload.
Can anyone advise if this is possible and how to do it ?
Further info:-
I have setup in CUP an ERM Initiator, an ERM Custom Approver Determinator (CAD), an ERM Stage.
I have setup in ERM I have defined Business Process Approval Criteria for each Business Process approver.
I tried creating a 2nd ERM stage using a separate 2nd ERM CAD but this meant all changes required 2nd approval before request can continue.
I tried modifying the 1st Stage to Approval type All Approvers but this meant all changes required approval from all possible BP Approvers (instead of any one) before request can continue.
I tried creating a Detour/Fork but could only see within the Workflow Type selection criteria non ERM workflow types.
Thanks
Steve

You can either type in the configuration, like the what option you selected for approver (CAD or role or...etc), or other way is to capture the change log which shows what was the configuration for that stage....
(Configuration -< Change Log -> Search Change log)

How to Trigger a Workflow from ABAP Webdynpro

Hi All Gurus,
I have the following urgent requirement, my client is implementing HR and there is a requirement, where is a ABAP Webdynpro component in which we have integrated a Adobe Interactive Form. When the user calls this from through Portal and fills out the relevant data and submits it, a Workflow in the backend ECC system should lauch,
I am not familiar with, this concept although I have worked in Workflow this is the first time I am interfacind with ABAP Webdynpro and Adobe Interactive From.
Can you please let me know in steps what needs to be done to make the workflow trigger for my scenario and also the specific settings to be done in the bacckend.
Regards,
Pratima Jain

Hi,
If you are using HCM Processes and Forms, the Workflow and form are not directly related, thats true.
But the method in the task calls the corresponding webdynpro application which responds to the action triggered by the user in turn to trigger the workflow and update the data in the HR Master Data.
There are 3 layers 1. UI (webdynpro which launches Adobe Interactive form based on ISR Framework)
2. Workflow
3. Backend framework (used for retrieving F4 helps, default values, save data in the infotypes).
for more documentation, please refer it on help.sap.com.

Check for duplicate invoices and trigger a workflow

Hello All,
I have a requirement to check for duplicate invoices in AP(Accounts payable) and trigger a workflow when duplicate invoices are found. I a not sure how to do any of the above. Please let me know if you have any information on:
1) Checking for duplicate invoices in AP
2) Trigger a workflow
Are there any standard workflows that checks duplicate invoices?
Thanks.
--Mithun

Hi MD,
I doubt if system gives an error on FI side when a duplicate invoice is posted.
I feel you would require a BAdi for it, where you can call your WF using FM SAP_WAPI_START_WORKFLOW.
Hope it helps.
Aditya
P.S also ask your Func Consultants, if there are any settings in the Customization, where you could capture Inv Dt, Inv Amt, Vendor, Company code.

Trigger a Workflow when a date is reached in SharePoint Online

I have created a simple list workflow (SharePoint Online) which emails a user, informing them a Document's
Target Closure Date has been reached. The workflow works fine when started manually.
I want to trigger the workflow only when Target Closure Date matches today's date.
The best solution seemed to be to use a Retention Policy. So I went to:
> Library Settings
> Information Management Policy settings
> Document content type
> ticked 'Enable Retention'
> Time Period: Target Closure Date + 0 days
> Action: Start the relevant workflow.
This worked only on two occasions - both were Saturday mornings, at 3.30am and 4.30am. I can see
in this MS article the Expiration Policy timer job only runs weekly on SharePoint 2013, so can anyone confirm that the schedule is the same in SharePoint Online?
If so, is there any way in SharePoint Online I can trigger a workflow when a date is reached?
Thanks for your help,
Alyosha

Hi Alyosha,
According to your description, my understanding is that you want to send an email to a user when the Target Closure Date was reached in SharePoint Online.
The timer job of Retention Policy runs weekly in SharePoint Online, so we cannot use the Retention Policy to trigger the workflow.
As a workaround, I recommend to create a workflow associated with the library to send the email when the Target Closure Date was reached.
Here are the detailed steps:
Create a workflow associated with the library and set the workflow to start when an item is created.
Select Pause until Date to set the workflow to pause until the Target Closure Date.
Select Send an Email.
Best regards.
Thanks

How to trigger a workflow using generic object services?

Hi Experts,
Let me know on how to trigger a workflow using generic object services.
My requirement is to trigger the FI document reversal document using Object services.
Any info or docs relevant to this, please share with me..
Thanks,
Dinesh.

Dinesh,
First of you need to check if the transaction has a BO (in released status) published to use the GOS.
These are the pre-requisites for GOS
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_46c/helpdata/en/94/aa532cddd511d289860000e8216438/content.htm
Once done.. check that you have valid workflow linkages active for this BO.
Now when you click on the 'start workflow' the system will show all relevant workflows for the BO to choose from and to start.

Can we trigger a workflow from e-mail create event?

Hi Experts,
My scenario is very simple-Whenever a mail is send for approval to the approver,two workitems-Approve or Reject should be created in the Appover's inbox.On clicking on any one workitem, corresponding mail for approval/reject should be sent.
My only doubt is how to trigger an event which will start the workflow. Also it should be triggered only when the mail is sent to a particular person-say admin and not to every individual.
Can you please guide me on this since I am new to workflows?
What I am looking for here is:-
a) The definition of E-mail creation event, which can trigger my workflow.
b) This definition has to be specific. I mean workflow should trigger only when a mail is send to admin.It should not trigger everytime a new mail is created in the system.
c) I thought that the business object for E-mail is activity-BUS2000110.But again activity can be anything-E-mail,task,telephonic conversation.Which business object should be used here?
Please give me some pointers on this.
Thanks and Regards,
Rohit

Hi Aditya,
Atlast somebody replied to my thread. Since yesterday I have created 3-4 threads and didn't got any single reponse.
Anyways, my query is:-
how to trigger the workflow? I know we need some event to trigger a workflow. Now how to generate this event, when the user is simply sending an e-mail to the admin for some approval request? How can an e-mail trigger an approval workflow in the background?
Any pointers/suggestions?
Thanks and Regards,
Rohit

HOW TO TRIGGER AN WORKFLOW FROM A PROGRAM ?

HELLO THERE ,
CAN ANYBODY PLZ TELL ME HOW TO TRIGGER AN WORKFLOW FROM AN PROGRAM AND TO PAS THE VALUE TO THE CONTAINER ?

Hello Neon,
If you want to trigger the workflow directly, use the FM, SWU_START_WORKFLOW
CALL FUNCTION 'SWU_START_WORKFLOW'
EXPORTING
    task                  =
*   LANGUAGE              = SY-LANGU
    user                  =
*   SENDER_ID             =
* IMPORTING
*   RETURN_CODE           =
*   WORKITEM_ID           =
tables
*   CONTAINER             =
*   MESSAGE_LINES         =
    attachment_list       =
A workflow can also be triggered by and event which is in turn triggered by a program.
By the FM, SWE_CREATE_EVENT
Example:
w_key = 'Connie'.
w_creator-otype = 'US'.
w_creator-objid = 'SAPDEV02'.
CALL FUNCTION 'SWE_EVENT_CREATE'
    EXPORTING
      objtype                       = 'YH_BUDDIES'
      objkey                        = w_key
      event                         = 'event'
     creator                        = w_creator
*     TAKE_WORKITEM_REQUESTER       = ' '
*     START_WITH_DELAY              = ' '
*     START_RECFB_SYNCHRON          = ' '
*     NO_COMMIT_FOR_QUEUE           = ' '
*     DEBUG_FLAG                    = ' '
*     NO_LOGGING                    = ' '
*     IDENT                         =
*   IMPORTING
*     EVENT_ID                      =
*   TABLES
*     EVENT_CONTAINER               =
   EXCEPTIONS
     objtype_not_found              = 1
     OTHERS                         = 2
IF sy-subrc <> 0.
    MESSAGE ID sy-msgid TYPE sy-msgty NUMBER sy-msgno
            WITH sy-msgv1 sy-msgv2 sy-msgv3 sy-msgv4.
ELSE.
    WRITE: / 'EVENT TRIGGERED'.
ENDIF.
COMMIT WORK.
Hope it helps you.

Trigger a workflow in fbcj on save of cash journal.

Hi All,
Have a requirement to trigger a workflow on saving a cash journal. We found out the business object "bus2023" . But it does not have any events in it which can be used in the workflow. i have searched through the forum and havent found suitable solutions.
Looking forward for the solution.
Thanks in advance ,
Regards,
Kavya.S

Hi,
Track the event (if any ) which is getting triggered on saving the cash journal.
use tcode: SWELS and SWEL. The event might be in different business object.
If there no event is getting triggered, search for user exit/Badi and from there
you can trigger your workflow directly or by using event ( custom event that you need to create).
Or if you know the change document you can trigger the event through customization (SWEC)

Is i possible to trigger a workflow from the creation of an event in iCal

Is i possible to trigger a workflow from the creation of an event in iCal
Or is is possible to create a workflow to ad events to an iCal calendar which then triggers the workflow or is combined with the ad events workflow.
Graeme

Hmm, nope. Not that I'm aware of. Very few apps allow you to hook scripts directly to user activity. Finder* is a notable exception. iCal's "publish" feature has the ability to auto-update after user activity, but you'll either need dot mac accounts or your own webdav server to get that working.
I'd re-consider the idea of triggering a periodic workflow with iCal. That way if the computer is shut down or asleep, iCal will wait to run the workflow at its next opportunity. You could hide the unsightly repeating events in a second calendar so they're out of the way.
The next best thing is to write a faceless AppleScript application with a long-duration idle handler. The user would simply add it to their login items in System Preferences. This would also resume its cycle after sleep or shutdown.
Yet another option is to write an AppleScript that can register itself in the crontab. This has the advantage of running at a predictable time. If you're careful, you can even set the script to wake up or power on the computer as necessary.
* Folder action scripts can be triggered when files are created, moved, or deleted, but not when they're merely updated. This probably rules out much of iCal's activities in ~/library/application support/ical/.

How to trigger the workflow from the excel sheet

hello friends,
my problem is that i should trigger the workflow from a excel sheet which contains a list of appraisers and appraisees.how to do this. can anyone help on this.
thanks.

Hi Murthy,
If you are asking if a workflow can be started on R/3 while in Excel - may be possible if you can develop some fancy macros that can make RFC calls to an ABAP function module. I won't even attempt to travel that route.
Save the excel sheet as CSV or Tab delimited file and process it using ABAP. You can use the WAPI function module SAP_WAPI_CREATE_EVENT (Rel 4.7)to start the Workflow by raising the relevant event. In earlier releases, see FM SWE_EVENT_CREATE.
Please do keep in mind there could be performance and response time issues for dialog users of the system if you are going to start several workflows using a report program.
Cheers,
Ramki.

How to trigger the workflow from RFC

Hi,
I need to trigger a workflow from a RFC.How can I call the event and start my workflow?
How can i do this?
please advice.
Thanks,
Anand

Hello Anand,
Goto swetypv transaction.Mention the abap class/bor object with the corresponding event.
In the receiver type, just mention some unique name.In the receiver function module mention the async RFC.
Mention the SENDER     TYPE     SIBFLPORB                        Local Persistent Object Reference - BOR Compatible
EVENT     TYPE     SIBFEVENT                               Event
RECTYPE     TYPE     SWFERECTYP                               Name of Receiver Type
HANDLER     TYPE     SIBFLPORB                               Local Persistent Object Reference - BOR Compatible
EXCEPTIONS_ALLOWED     TYPE     SWEFLAGS-EXC_OK     SPACE     Checkbox
XML_SIZE     TYPE     SWF_XMLSIZ                               Size in Bytes
EVENT_CONTAINER     TYPE     SWF_XMLCNT                               Container as XML Stream of Fixed Width
So that the guid can be used inorder to identify the instance.
you can use : "sap_wapi_start_workflow" fn module.
Hope this helps.
