Universal Worklist displays Items of Inactive Employees

Hi,
    Is there a way where we can configure the system to display tasks of only active Employees on the Portal UWL. currently some of the EEs have left company and still the managers see their leave requests in the UWL.
Thanks
Amandeep

Hello Amandeep,
This is not a configuration, you will need to build this into the workflow as a custom terminating event.
On the other hand, is this really such a big problem? I don't see why people should be requesting leave for periods after they have left the company.... If it is a once-off or only happens rarely, rather just cancel the WFs manually which should be less work than building a solution for a situation which shouldn't really happen.
Hope that helps,
Mike

  • Trip Form from Universal Worklist displayes an error

    Hi,
    Situation
    We are using ESS/MSS within the Portal 7.0 SP 14. The SAP Backend which we are using is ECC 6.0.
    SSO between the Portal and Backend works efficient.
    Problem
    There are some issues when using the Universal Worklist. All tasks appear in our Universal Worklist from the Backend.
    Unfortunately, when trying to open any task we are facing the following error:
    com.sap.aii.proxy.framework.core.DataAccessException: Type conversion error, field I_TRIPNUMBER, complex type class com.sap.xss.tra.tri.model.tripform.Ptrm_Web_Form_Pdf_Get_Input

    Following steps have been followed up
    - The URL parameter of the resource "Employee_travel_tripform_srv05 has the value "sap_xss_tra_UsePdf=true"
    - The iView "Display Trip Form" has the application parameter "sap.xss.tra.UsePdf=true"
    Question
    When a task is opened from the Universal Worklist, the Trip Form must appear in PDF Form.At this stage the iview "Display Trip Form" opens but shows the error mentioned above.
    Is there anyone who could help us out?
    Any help would be appreciated.

  • Universal WorkList (UWL) items forward

    Hi all.
    When a user goes to forward a workflow to someone, you get the "Forward" button. When doing the search for a person, a list is returned. Where is this list created from? We want to limit the list to be only managers, but right now, we are retrieving the whole corporation, and this is unacceptable. How can someone control the people/employees that show up in the search list? Is there a certain authorization that goes with it, or an RFC that is called?
    Thanks a lot.

    I didn't want to chirp up without concrete example for you. For your request, I am not 100% sure. Your only option I can think off off hand is to look at the UWL Configuration (ie. the XML config) that is possible. I know you can config "how" a task/work item as viewed (the "view") as well as how it is launched. However, I am not so sure you could limit the "forward" list. I believe it is just simply looking at the users in the UME for the portal to determine what/who is possible. In any event....if I were in your shoes, I would look at the SAP Press "white book" on UWL Configuration.....get the author's name (I forget right off) and contact him (he is VERY open to contact via email and he knows the UWL inside out).....that's just how I would follow up. Hope it helps.

  • Universal Worklist Error

    I am receiving the following error when I try to forward a task through the Universal Worklist:
    This item is no longer valid. Select another item or refresh the item list view.
      Error Detail: Tue Aug 16 15:02:50 EDT 2005 (Item) Item is missing from the UWL persistent cache   
    I select the "Forward" button and then select a user from the dropdown list.  When I select "Submit" I receive this error.
    Does anyone have any experience working with the Universal Worklist and have encountered this issue?
    Please advise.
    Thanks.
    Jason

    we have a similar problem to this one. We have a user who is receiving the error message "Item is missing from UWL persistent cache". It seems that the old messages are displayed in the inbox initially until a refresh is automatically performed a few seconds later and it is not until this point that the current messages are displayed.
    Any ideas ? Thanks.

  • Universal worklist iview didn't not display items of  CRM workplace inbox

    Hello experts,
    I had configurated the UWL as follow steps:
    1.Define our SAP system : 
       CMDCLNT100
    2. Create a system alias to uniquely identify the system:
        SAP_CRM
    3. Define exact settings for technical connections:
        Has been difined.
    4. Define how users are mapped:(not difined, we used sso with ticket, and the  
        user name of all SAP system is same )
    5.Test system connections:
       HTTP/HTTPS failed.But the SSO is working fine .
    6.  Add the new system to UWL configuration
        succssful.
    7.Register work item types
       successful.
    8.Connection status :
      successful.
    At the same time , the sso user XC03,XC04 both had the roles SAP_BC_UWL_SERVICE,SAP_BC_UWL_END_USER,SAP_BC_UWL_ADMIN_USER in CRM.
    But there is no items in "task" tab of Universal Worklist iview of Portal user XC03, there are more than 10 items of CRM user XC03 in workplace inbox in CRM.
    On EP7 SP6, CRM 5.0 .
    Urgent! 
    What is the nature reason and solution ?

    Hi Karri,
    could you please give me a link towards the Universal Worklist forum? I could not find it.
    By EDIT I mean the editItem action. (http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw73/helpdata/en/4a/f09ebd4a5a6d62e10000000a42189c/frameset.htm)
    I tried to only configure the iView by the excludeActions property but I had the same problem, that the 1st iView acted according to the configuration, but the 2nd not.
    In the Detail View, the editItem action can be found in the section "You can also" -> "Edit Task". When I click it, a popup appears where I can edit the task.

  • PO Approval Items Workitems are not removed from the Universal Worklist UWL

    Hi,
    Certain of our purchase orders require approval, they are sent to the relevant approver via workflow to their SAP inbox (SBWP) and universal worklist.
    When the user executes the workitem (Approve or Reject) The workitem should be removed from the universal worklist and SBWP when refreshed.
    The problem we experiencing is that the Workitems are not removed from the UWL after they have been executed. The SBWP is behaving correctly and the items are removed.
    It is not all the workitems that have this problem, only certain ones - but there is no pattern.
    Thanks for the help.

    Hi,
    The user B approved the PR accessing the transaction SBWP or via PR transaction directly?
    If via PR transaction directly, then your workflow needs a Wait Event step.

  • LeaveRequestApprover : "Page cannot be displayed" in universal worklist

    Hi,
    I really need some help on the leave request approver application.
    When the approver clicks on a request in his universal worklist, the LeaveRequestApprover should be called. In our case, we have a "Page cannot be displayed" error message.
    We have upgraded our system form ECC5 to ECC6.
    Is there some configuration to do?
    Thanks a lot for your help.

  • Universal Worklist items open in new window instead of existing frame

    After our recent upgrade we noticed that workitems in Universal Worklist open in new window instead of existing frame.  Do you know if there is a system or universal setting to make all the workitems open in existing frame?  I know we can change the settings for parameters launchInNewWindow and openInNewWindow to "no" in XML files to fix this.   However, my concern is that I would need to do this for each and every task we use.  (still doable but wondering if there is simpler solution)
    Example: 
        <ItemType name="uwl.task.webflow.TS12300097.SAP_R3_CUSTOM_DEV" connector="WebFlowConnector" defaultView="DefaultView" defaultAction="launchWebDynPro" executionMode="default">
          <ItemTypeCriteria systemId="SAP_R3_CUSTOM_DEV" externalType="TS12300097" connector="WebFlowConnector"/>
          <Actions>
            <Action name="launchWebDynPro" groupAction="" handler="SAPWebDynproLauncher" returnToDetailViewAllowed="yes" launchInNewWindow="yes" launchNewWindowFeatures="resizable=yes,scrollbars=yes,status=yes,toolbar=no,menubar=no,location=no,directories=no">
              <Properties>
                <Property name="WebDynproApplication" value="LeaveRequestApprover"/>
                <Property name="WebDynproDeployableObject" value="sap.com/ess~lea"/>
                <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"/>
              </Properties>
              <Descriptions default=""/>
            </Action>
          </Actions>
        </ItemType>

    We downloaded uwl.standard.xml from UWL admin.  Made a copy and renamed file.  Changed all "launchInNewWindow" from "yes" to "no".  Uploaded new file in UWL admin.  Re-registered systems, cleared cache.  Not sure what exact line changed the behavior but the workitems no longer open in new window.
    We are still experimenting with file in our sandbox environment.

  • Processing EIC follow up via the Universal Worklist (UWL)

    Hi
    We are implemented EIC (Employee Interationc Centre) ERP and have an issue whereby the follow up appears in both the agent inbox within EIC and the Universal Worklist.   The workflow for follow up is WS61000086.  How do we get the follow up to work from the UWL as well as the EIC agent inbox?  At the moment if the  user clicks on the work item in the UWL a blank window is opened 'Display Object' close window. 
    Many thanks
    Julie

    Hi,
    You are most likely missing a proper configuration for the task in UWL. The UWL configurations are done in Portal in system admin -> system config -> UWL (->Manage item types). This will require some XML "coding" experience, since you would need to do a proper XML configuration for the task. Now I don't know that what should happen when the user clicks the task in UWL, since I don't know this workflow or this area. Is there some web application existing for this task, are you just supposed to open the SAP GUI for the task? In both cases it might also be possible to do the needed configuration in transaction SWFVISU. Basically you need to enter your task ID there and then configure what is the "visualization" for the task. After the SWFVISU has been done correctly, you need to re-register the workflow system (in system admin -> system config -> UWL), and this would create the XML configuration automatically.

    Karri

  • Error Naviating in Universal Worklist

    Hi All,
    If I click on an item in the universal worklist (i.e. trip approval) I am taken to the aproval screen here I get an option to 'Display Details in SAP GUI'.
    If I select this I am taken to the details screen.  If I then try to select back/cancel to exit SAP GUI I am taken to the ITS log-off page and not back to the universal worklist.  
    Does anyone know how to get the navigation back to the universal worklist to work?
    Many Thanks,

  • Universal Worklist Configuration

    Hey guys
    Please can someone tell me where I can find a universal wordlist config guide for EP7.0?
    Many thanks in advance
    Jo-lize

    Hi
    This are the steps need to be followed.please do give full points
    The Universal Worklist (UWL) gives users unified and centralized way to access their work and the relevant information in the Enterprise Portal. It collects tasks and notifications from multiple provider systems – SAP Business Workflow, Collaboration Task, Alert Framework and Knowledge Management Recent Notifications - in one list for one-stop access.
    Administration and configuration for the Universal Worklist (UWL) is described.
    General Prerequisites
    1.     As an administrator, you have full administration rights for the Portal and the required business workflow rights in back end system (reference roles such as SAP_BC_BMT_WFM_UWL_ADMIN and SAP_BC_UWL_ADMIN_USER). Refer to SAP note 941589.
    Summary
    Symptom
    UWL administrative and/or end users are not allowed to perform or look up business workflow functions or data in the backend system.
    Reason and Prerequisites
    Corresponding adminsitrative and end users in the backend systems are created from scratch and have zero initial authorization.
    These roles are provided as an option to enable UWL administrative and end user authorization to readily utitlize the APIs of the SAP Business Workflow and relevant basis components remotely.
    (Note: Usually these roles are not needed as backend user is already assigned with roles that have sufficient authorization.)
    Also refer to BWF note 938717 for the corresponding roles required by business workflow.
    SAP_BC_UWL_ADMIN_USER
    For UWL administrative user who mainly deals with business workflow system registration.
    SAP_BC_UWL_END_USER
    For UWL end user to carry out all business workflow actions currently supported in UWL.
    Solution
    The roles can only be imported with a support package

    Summary
    Symptom
    This note delivers two roles (PFCG) with the authorizations required to display and edit Business Workflow work items in the universal worklist.
    SAP_BC_BMT_WFM_UWL_ADMIN
    This role has the workflow authorizations required to perform the configuration for the Business Workflow connection in the universal worklist. These are authorizations for Business Workflow interfaces on the back-end system. The role does not have any authorizations for the portal or other interfaces used by the universal worklist.
    SAP_BC_BMT_WFM_UWL_END_USER
    This role has all workflow authorizations required by end users to be able to edit Business Workflow work items with the universal worklist. The role does not have any authorizations for the portal or other interfaces used by the universal worklist.
    You can either use the two roles directly or as templates for your own roles.
    Note 941589 contains more information about roles with authorizations for the universal worklist.

    1.     Make sure that each user is known to all connected SAP systems as per role requirement (make sure that there is one-to-one mapping between the portal user and the backend user)
    If an iView is based on a system object defined in your system landscape, you must assign user permission for the relevant user, group, or role to the system object, as well. User permissions assigned to a system permits the iView to retrieve data from the respective back end application through the system object at runtime.
    2.      Each connected SAP system for back end system (below release 7.0, WP-PI plug-in 6.0) has the connection to its respective SAP Internet Transaction Server (ITS)
    Authorizations needed for working with Business Workflow
    Normally, when the corresponding back end system user already has the correct authorization to work on the Business Workflow directly, no additional setup is required when working in UWL. However, manual configuration to assign RFC access authorization to the following function groups may be needed (Note: this is not common):
    1.     &#9679;      Function group and transaction SWK1 (for back end systems using WP-PI plug-in)
    2.     &#9679;      Function group SWN_UWL_WL (for back end system on release 6.40 and above, without the need of WP-PI plug-in)
    3.     &#9679;      Function group SWRC, SSCV (for all cases)
    4.     &#9679;      Authorization rights for SDTX
    User Mapping:
    1.      Navigate to User Administration ®&#61472;&#61513;identity Managementà User Mapping.
           2.      There are three scenarios:
    &#9675;     Portal user ID is different than the back end SAP user ID and back end SAP user IDs are different in all back end SAP systems connected to the portal (UIDPW)
    1.      Maintain the user mapping for each portal user corresponding to all the respective back end systems
    2.      Portal user ID is different than the back end SAP user ID and backend SAP user ids are the same in all back end SAP systems connected to the portal (logon ticket)
      Maintain the user mapping for each portal user to the reference system
    3.     Portal user ID is the same as the back end SAP user and back end SAP user IDs are the same in all back end SAP systems connected to the portal (logon ticket)
    1.       No user mapping is necessary
    User Permissions
    According to the prerequisites, if an iView is based on a system object defined in your system landscape, you must assign user permission for the relevant user, group, or role to the system object, as well.
    User permissions assigned to a system permits the iView to retrieve data from the respective back end application through the system object at runtime.
         Procedure
           1.      Navigate to System Administration  ® System Configuration  ® Portal Content. Open the folder where the existing systems were created.
           2.      From the available system list, click with the secondary mouse button on the system name and choose Open  ® Permissions.
           3.      Assign permissions. Make sure that under the Administrator column you assign Read permissions for the assigned role (for example for role eu_role). Also mark the check box End User.
           4.      Choose Save.
         Registering the Provider Systems
    Each UWL iView can retrieve work items from multiple Business Workflow back end systems. Register each back-end connection to be used with the following procedure:
    On the port...
           1.      On the portal, choose System Administration ® System Configuration ® Universal Worklist and Workflow ® Universal Worklist Administration.
    The Universal Worklist Systems list appears. Here you can define connectors and systems as item providers for the Universal Worklist.
           2.      To add a new entry, choose New. To edit existing information, select (highlight) the row and choose Edit.
           3.      To save the current system registration, choose Ok.
           4.      Multiple system connections are defined by repeating the above steps 1 to 3.
    Table describing the parameters
    Parameter     Description and Use
    Connector     This is the identifier with which the connector is registered. It indicates the type of items retrieved through the connection. For example: WebFlowConnector.For connector types WebFlowConnector or Alert Connector item types have to be registered with the UWL service after defining a new system connection.
    Configuration Groups     Leave this blank, when working with the default UWL iView. You can add a number of configuration groups separated by commas but only one configuration group per iView. first installed, one UWL iView is defined.  The System Configuration Group property for that iView is empty (blank). This means that no System Configuration Group is named, but in effect there is only a single group. The default behavior for the blank setting is this: when any user logs onto the UWL iView, UWL tries to log that user onto all registered back end systems. There is a limitation with the blank setting. When a large number of systems are accessed during log on, the overall portal load is increased. Also, the user receives error messages from those back end systems that have no user account for the particular UWL user. For large system landscapes do the following:...       1.      Partition back end systems into groups. This is accomplished by creating additional UWL iView instances, each of which refers to a specific group of backend systems. The group is defined, using the System Configuration Group iView property.       2.      Then use the value of the System Configuration Group property when registering back end systems by placing it in parameter Configuration Group, when you register the SAP system.
    System alias     The name of the alias for the back end system, as defined in the system landscape. The length cannot exceed 25 characters.If Web Dynpro applications are configured on a SAP NetWeaver Application Server which is different from the SAP NetWeaver Application Server of the system alias, then specify that system alias as a Web Dynpro system
    Web Dynpro Launch System     Enter the Web Dynpro system name if the SAP NetWeaver Application Server for the system is not the same as that running the Web Dynpro.Leave empty otherwise
    User Roles     Restricts who can get work items via the user role. For example, you can assign a portal role here, such as buyer. Only users with the role buyer will see items from the provider system in UWL.You can have multiple user roles separated by semi-colon. By specifying user roles for the portal users, it can be restricted as to who gets the work items in UWL.  For example, you can assign a portal role to a user, such as buyer.  Only users with the role buyer will see items from a system, for example, B7QCLNT000 in UWL.
    Pull Channel Delta Refresh Period (in Seconds)     Delta Pull mechanism of UWL enables new items to be fetched from the back end SAP systems every minute by default every 60 seconds, and every 30 seconds for alerts. However, this can be configured. The user does not need to use the refresh function to update the inbox. Once items are retrieved, timestamps are updated for the users whose items are successfully retrieved. These retrieved items are updated in the UWL cache. Setup necessary from Business Workflow to enable Delta Pull MechanismSome configuration settings are required if you use the UWL and the Extended Notifications for SAP Business Workflow. Define the following two batch jobs:...&#9679;      Background job (for example UWL_DELTA_PULL_1), consisting of a single step of ABAP report RSWNUWLSEL in FULL mode, using a report variant.Run the job once a day.1.     &#9679;      A background job (for example UWL_DELTA_PULL_2), consisting of a single step of ABAP report RSWNUWLSEL in DELTA mode (default mode is delta, so report variant is optional).Run the job every one to three minutes (depending on the performance of the back end SAP system).Setup necessary from UWL to enable Delta Pull Mechanism The UWL service user in portal, with user id uwl_service, has to be granted access to the corresponding back end systems. This is a predefined service user provided by UWL. When the back end system is configured in the UWL administration page, an automated process is triggered to create a corresponding UWL service user in the back end system.Check role assignments and profiles status of this automated generated UWL service user and perform user comparison if necessary.&#9679;      If SAPLogon ticket is used (without using user mapping), you first create the system entry. A message about uwl_service user appears. Then in the back-end system give the uwl_service user an initial password. Now edit the system entry.&#9679;      If user mapping is used, you can first configure the back end system in the UWL administration page. Then access the respective back end system to initialize the password for the user uwl_service. Then, do user mapping in the portal as usual for service user uwl_service.In case uwl_service fails to be created in the back end and does not exist, you can manually create a back end user with the id uwl_service and assign the role SAP_BC_UWL_SERVICE and the rights as other end users.ORMap uwl_service to an existing back end user. Make sure that there is no multiple user mapping (there must not be two portal users mapped to the same back end user). This back end user must have the role SAP_BC_UWL_SERVICE.
    Snapshot Refresh Period (in minutes)     All items at the current time are fetched from the backend (for example from the SAP Business Workflow). The cache is synchronized thereafter. New / modified / deleted / updated items are fetched every session (every log on) if you leave the field value empty or enter a negative number.To specify a particular time frame for which the refresh occurs, enter the number of minutes
    The above registration procedure is usually sufficient to use a UWL iView. Item type retrieval and registration requires a connection to the systems and may take a couple of minutes.
    For each system, they are generated as the configuration named uwl.webflow..
    In Manager Self-Service (MSS), the Universal Worklist groups together in Workset: Work
    Overview the various workflow tasks and alerts that are relevant for a manager.
    The standard MSS delivery includes the configuration file com.sap.pct.erp.mss.001.xml for the universal worklist.
    1. In the portal, choose System Administration →&#61472;System Configuration →&#61472;Universal
    Worklist and Workflow →&#61472;Universal Worklist →&#61472;UWL Systems Configuration.
    2. Create the following system connections:
    If you have already registered a suitable connector to the system connected to
    the system alias, the existing connector is sufficient and you do not have to
    register an additional one.
    &#9675; System alias: SAP_ECC_Financials
    Connection types:
    &#9632; WebFlowConnector
    &#9632; AlertConnector
    &#9675; System alias: SAP_ECC_HumanResources
    Connection type WebFlowConnector
    &#9675; System alias: SAP_SRM
    Connection type WebFlowConnector
    Leave the Web Dynpro Launch System field blank for all system connections.

  • Configuring Guided Procedures with the Universal Worklist

    hi experts,
    Pls give me the steps to Configure Guided Procedures with the Universal Worklist....
    I have the help file with me but it doesn't work ... and my configuration is NWDS 7.0 sp9.
    pls help me
    with regards,
    sriram

    Hi,
    You can configure your system so that the tasks generated in Guided Procedures (GP) workflows, both on local and remote systems, are displayed in the Universal Worklist (UWL) together with the tasks pertaining to other SAP NetWeaver Portal work areas.
    You perform the configuration steps on the consumer side:
           1.      Create a portal system, specifying the host name, HTTP port of the GP tasks provider and, if available, the WSDL of the relevant service.
           2.      Register the system as the item provider for UWL and configure it for remote access.
    You establish the connection between GP and the UWL by assigning a system alias.
           3.      In UWL, browse all pending GP tasks assigned to your user.
    You can only view tasks assigned to your user, that is, the logon ID of the user on both systems must match.
    Prerequisites:-
    a)  You have been assigned the System Admin portal role to be able to create portal systems and aliases. For more information, see Administration Roles.
    b) You have been assigned the Standard User role to be able to access UWL in the portal. For more information, see Default Portal Content for Standard Users.
    c) You know the host name of the system from which you want to retrieve GP tasks
    Step by Step Procedure guide can be found out at
    [Step by Step Procedure for COnfiguring GP with UWL|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04s/helpdata/en/43/ef06a7860c7061e10000000a1553f6/frameset.htm]
    Hope this helps,
