Triggering SRM4.0/EBP5.0 workflow using an online form in EP6.0 SP13

hello,
I need to develop an online form in the Portal that will trigger the workflow in the SRM.
I understand that SAP WebDynpro can be used to develop custom web transactions that meet this requirement. Please can anyone show me how this is done, or a document that shows how its done.
Is there another way to achieve this?
Thanks in advance.

How do I reset responses (and summary report data) and use my online form for a new application?

I created my online form, distributed it and captured the responses - worked well. Now I want to use the same form and start over (track the responses separately from the first time). How do I reset the results / responses? Thanks for any help you provide.

Go to the My Forms tab on the main dashboard (were all of your forms are listed). Select your form and hit the duplicate button. This will make a copy of your form and you have the option to include or not include the responses in the copy.

PDF/A limiting use of online forms for some users - Acrobat 8

I have been creating fillable forms to post online for my program. A number of users (Adobe or Acrobat) get a message that says, "The file you have opened complies with the PDF/A standard and has been opened read-only to prevent modification." Folks who get this message cannot fill in the "fillable" form. Folks who don't get the message can complete the form without difficulty. When I check the settings in Word and Acrobat, I find no indication that the form is set to PDF/A.
I want every one with Adobe or Acrobe or Acrobat to be able to complete these forms. How can I correct this on my end so the forms are trouble free for users?
Thanks, Barb

Thanks George! I would really appreciate your looking at it. Here is the link. It should go right to the form. http://deq.state.wy.us/wqd/WYPDES_Permitting/WYPDES_Storm_Water/Forms/NOI_LCGP_2011_rev8-1 1_aSG_reader_enabled.pdf
This should go right to the form. I have other fillable forms on this web page and they seem to be accessible to folks using reader. I really can't see what I did to this one. I've looked at the PDF/A setting and I don't think it's set to PDF/A. I've been working more with this one trying to fix the problem, but I think I either do nothing or make it worse ...
Thanks again. Barb

Issue while starting a workflow using a form submission cq5

Hi,
I have followed the below mentioned tutorial and completed it.
http://dev.day.com/docs/en/cq/current/workflows/create-models.html#par_reference
Once done, I did try to start the workflow using a normal form submission, by giving workflow name in the "Start Workflow" box.
Once clicked it will send the notification to my inbox, and when I double click, the form 1 will be displayed. Once submitted form two will be displayed.
But when I submit the form 2, it thorws the below exception.
But when I start the same workflow using the sidekick, It works perfectly fine. I am guessing that the {payload}.html is not getting set when the WF is initaited by a form submission.
Could you please help with this. Thank you !

Triggering workflow using user-exits

Hi all,
can anyone tel me how a workflow can be triggered using user-exits??
thanks in advance

Call function module SAP_WAPI_CREATE_EVENT (with COMMIT_WORK = space) to create an event, and use the event to start your workflow (triggering event). Alternatively, you can start the workflow directly using the corresponding SAP_WAPI function module for that purpose. My recommendation is that you normally don't start workflows directly as it is a less flexible solution (or you have to build that flexibility yourself instead of using what you get for free with triggering events).
However, why are you asking this question? I started wondering after seeing you ask an almost identical question in [another thread|Triggering Workflow Using BADI; here.

Relationship between the workflows what have been triggered frm parent workflow using container step

Hi All,
There is a scenario in CQ5.5 where "Workflow A" has container step to initiate another "Workflow B" from it. Now the requirement is to identity the Workflow A's instance ID in "Workflow B".
Being quite unable to find any relationship between the workflows what have been triggered from parent workflow using container step.
Could any one share the pointers for the same?
Thanks in advanced.

SharePoint Approval Workflow using SharePoint Designer in SharePoint Foundation 2013

I am unable to do SharePoint Designer workflow for approval process and I didnt get any Approval process in Actions in SharePoint designer Workflow also I don't find workflow features in Site collection features SharePoint 2013.
Even I am not able to do simple Out of the box Approval Workflow.
Kindly help me with this

Unfortunately, Out of the box workflows are not available in SharePoint foundation 2013, you need at least the standard version of SharePoint 2013.
You can still create .Net Workflows using the 2010 plateform.
Take a look at this great comparative between the three versions of SharePoint 2013 :

I’m having an intermittent problem with my midi controllers triggering Mainstage 3.
I’m using a PreSonus Firebox audio interface.
It’s been working fine for months, but now when I first turn on the computer in the morning , I’m not able to trigger MainStage from the keyboard. I tried different midi controllers, different keyboards, different midi cords, and check midi preferences. The audio interface is working fine and is recogonized, but the midi doesn’twork. I re-started the computer several times and then finally it miraculously starts working again.
I’ve been having to this every day now. Any help or ideas is very much appreciated.

I Had the same problem with a FireStudio. Try unplugging the FireWire plug and the power plug. Wait for a few seconds, then plug both back in. The light on my FireStudio was flashing blue/red which means "not connecting." I did what I just described, and everything works again. Hope it works for you.

Getting error while publishing workflow using SP designer for SharePoint 2013

Hi,
I am try to setup Workflow manager for our sharepoint applications.
WF manager set ran without any issue.
I registered the SPWorkflow service which succeeded as well. The Workflow service application shows "Workflow is connected"
I am creating a workflow using sharepoint designer using my credential (not Service account). I am able to save it but while publishing, its prompting with an error.
The error says "Errors were found while compiling the workflow.The workflow files were saved but cannot run." Clicking advanced button show
"Microsoft.SharePoint.SPException: We're sorry, we weren't able to complete the operation, please try again in a few minutes. If you see this message repeatedly, contact your administrator.

Any help would be highly appreciated
Thanks,

Hi,
According to your post, my understanding is that you got error while publishing workflow using SharePoint designer for SharePoint 2013.
Please check whether the Central Admin > Manage Service Application-> “App Management Service” is started.
Please check whether the “Configure service application associations”, ”App Management Service” is already associated.
Then please check whether the “Manage Services on server” and the “App Management Service” is started.
In addition, please try to re-register Workflow Service.
If the issues still exists, please follow the steps in the
Steps to Verify that Server Is Correctly Set Up. After you verified that the server is correctly set up, follow the steps in the
Steps to Troubleshoot Workflow Management Service and
Troubleshooting the Service Bus for Windows Server then retry your action related to publishing workflows

Routing documents using SharePoint Online workflows

Hello,
I am trying to design a workflow for SharePoint Online, but have run into a few problems. Basically I need the workflow to work as follows:
1. User submits a document (which is already in a Document Library in SharePoint) to a designated Supervisor for Approval
2. Supervisor receives an email that a document is ready for approval. After reviewing:
a. If Supervisor rejects, the document remains in the original folder
b. If Supervisor approves, the document is automatically moved to a new folder named "Approved" within that same Document Library
I thought there would be a template in SharePoint Online that would offer these features (i.e. the Publishing Approval workflow template I am currently trying to use), but I can't seem to enable an option to have the file automatically directed to an
Approved folder. I have been reading online for the last hour or so and this seems to be possibly using Visual Studios, but I currently do not have that application. Are there any other options available?
Please note - each user has their own "Approval" folder. So, if possible, I would need to apply this as a template to each user and specify the path of the Approval workflow for each user.
I really appreciate any suggestions or advice you could provide.

Hi,
You can create a SharePoint Designer approval workflow to achieve this requirement. In the workflow, on approval, add a step to copy the file to your target location. The following link demonstrates the use of Copy functionality in SharePoint Designer
2013.

What is the Design to Deployment Workflow using DW with WordPress?

I am a Designer and Developer/programmer. This is a complete workflow question: What is the Design to Deployment Workflow using DW with WordPress? For example, is it:
PS/IL > DW > WP? (Photoshop or Illustrator, Dreamweaver, WordPress?)
Or is Edge Reflow inserted between PS and DW?
PS > ER > DW > WP?
Are these workflows iterative and, whats the word, recursive - we are able to go back and forth?
My understanding is that the Edge tools are not up to the coding standards of DW, and ER > DW (Edge Reflow to Dreamweaver) is not seamless or even practical.
Where does the Stack come in? MAMP (or LAMP/WAMP) of course, jQuery/jQuery UI, WordPress and other items; how integrated are these things?
I used to be a Flex developer and quite comfortable with the Design to Dynamic Deployment workflow of Illustrator or Photoshop to Flash Catalyst to Flash Builder; moreover, I thought the Eclipse IDE was excellent with its database introspection capabiliities, debugging etc. Adobe really pushed this workflow, then instead of innovating and standing behind its own product with 98% market penetration, Adobe disembowelled Flash right before everyones eyes.
What about Prototyping, which is certainly part of the process? Fireworks is on the kibosh. Illustrator, while excelling at some aspects falls short of making a functional prototype (unless you're tying in Acrobat to link the pages), and while Photoshop is Edge Reflows darling, Edge seems redundant with DW and spits out twacky code.
(Muse of course is unusable for professional developers, but it makes you wonder why some of those UI elements where not employed in DW whose interface seems antiquated by comparison).
It seems Adobe is bloody all over the place, more like a rabbing drunk with a microphone rather than the dependable go-to software company for creatives the world over.
In my opinion, workflow from beginning to end is important. Having a million different options to try to accomodate everyone is not. Some guidance in this department is greatly appreciated!
Best,
Dylan

I have not used Edge Reflow myself. Nor do I espically like WordPress. But my typical workflow is:
PS for Design Concept and web images.
DW for CSS, HTML & JavaScript.
3rd party editors like Zend Studio & Navicat for PHP & MySql development.

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.

How can i execute a workflow using a bapi/wapi??

Hi All,
How can i execute a workflow using a bapi/wapi??
pls advice
thanks

Hi Hrus,
it's not as simple as a single BAPI to approve a workflow.
Workflow comes with a Workflow API (WAPI) that you can use to programmatically interact with the workflow system. The WAPI is implemented as a group of RFC-enabled function modules that are prefixed with "SAP_WAPI_".
Approving a workflow is simply taking a decision path for a workflow item. It is logically no different to rejecting the same workflow item or any other workflow decision.
As part of NetWeaver workflow is tightly coupled to the WAS platform you are running on so you may need to perform WAPI operations slightly differently on older releases.
Some of the WAPI calls you might need to use include: -
SAP_WAPI_GET_HEADER to get the workitem header
SAP_WAPI_READ_CONTAINER to get the workitem container
SAP_WAPI_GET_OBJECTS to get the attached objects
SAP_WAPI_DECISION_READ to get a list of possible decisions
SAP_WAPI_SET_WORKITEM_STATUS to set the workitem status
SAP_WAPI_WRITE_CONTAINER to write to the workitem container
SAP_WAPI_EXECUTE_WORKITEM to execute the workitem
I usually do what you are trying to do by adding the decision to the workflow container and then executing the workflow.
Be warned, you can really stuff things up if you get this wrong! Make sure you know what you are doing.
Quoting from Practical Workflow for SAP by Alan Rickayzen, et al from SAP Press...
Writing directly to the workflow container is dangerous because it can compromise the integrity of the process.
...be careful that you do not waste time duplicating existing ad hoc features of SAP's Workflow Engine.
For example you can use events (combined with wait steps), instead of container modifications to force the workflow to restart.
Cheers
Graham Robbo

How to copy List item from one list to another using SPD workflow using HTTP call web service

Hi,
How to copy List item from one list to another using SPD workflow using HTTP call web service.
Both the Lists are in different Web applications.
Regards, Shreyas R S

Hi Shreyas,
From your post, it seems that you are using SharePoint 2013 workflow platform in SPD.
If that is the case, we can use Call HTTP web service action to get the item data, but we cannot use Call HTTP web service to create a new item in the list in another web application with these data.
As my test, we would get Unauthorized error when using Call HTTP web service action to create a new item in a list in another web application.
So I recommend to achieve this goal programmatically.
