Update should happen with user id using advancing with immediate dialog ??

Hi Experts,
I am trying to use the advancing with immediate dialog:  My workflow is using HCM forms: The approver approves the form and  I want the next step to execute immediately. I made the recipient the same as the actual agent of the work item which just completed. The new step goes into a ready state in that agent's  inbox,  I signed on as the user to execute and it works fine.
What other steps are required to make the task execute immediately without going to the user inbox?  The task calls a BOR object which has synchronous object method and object method with dialog checked. The task has advance with dialog checked.
Regards,
Lolanda

Hi Viji,
Yes,  I want the actual user name from the previous task which approved the item to display on the infotype  8 record as changed by. I thought I would be able to have it executed automatically by setting the step condition to  create work item and complete work item condition. I have not been successful in the background. It completes the task but I am not sure it is calling the routine. Is there a way to debug the task. It is  passing all breakpoints.
regards,
Lolanda

  • Issue with 'Advance With Immediate Dialog' - Reg

    Hello Gurus,
    We are on ECC 6.0 with the below system details.
    SAP_ABA     700     0015     SAPKA70015     Cross-Application Component
    SAP_BASIS     700     0015     SAPKB70015     SAP Basis Component
    I have this strange requirement / issue. I have a User-decision step as step # 1 with 2 Outcomes (Release & Reject). If 'Release' option is chosen, then I need to display the same user another User-decision step for further decision. This works perfectly fine with the "Advance with Immediate Dialog' Flag. But now a new requirement came to run some background step in between these 2 decision steps. Means, if 'Release' option is chosen, then i need to execute a background method to validate some criteria and pull out some values into a container element in the workflow container. And then depending on the value of this container element, i'll have to pop-up the 2nd user decision step to the same user immediately.
    The "Advance with Immediate Dialog" is not working in this case. The 2nd User-decision step is coming as a separate work item to the user's Inbox. This will not meet the user requirement as 2nd work item should pop-up immediately after the decision of 1st step.
    I understand that this flag works with SAP Inbox fine ONLY for two consecutive dialog steps(Per SAP documentation...Condition step, Process Ctrl steps are OK to be in between two dialog steps). But i need to have some way of executing a piece of code at the end of step# 1 User decision and bring back some values into this container element.
    I could have used the concept of 'Programmed Binding' between WFLOW <----> TASK containers. But, the problem is these steps are User decision steps with DECISION.PROCESS, which is a std Business Object and Method. And i cannot modify this std. BO / method, just for this purpose. It'd be really laborious to have a custom DECISION Business object and method etc..
    Has anybody had similar requirement.If yes, how did you resolve it ?. Any other better ideas to achieve the above requirement would be greatly appreciated.
    Thank You In advance for your timely help

    Hi,
    1) Why does the background step has to be between the decision steps? Can't you get the same data already before the first decision step? (I am just wondering that what changes your first decision step can make in the database, so that you need to get this new data after the user decision step.)
    2) One option for you is to change the background step as a dialog step. Just put the Advance With Immediate Dialog on for it too. And use the same agent as in the previous decision step. => Since you don't have any user dialog in the step it will be executed "automatically" and the user does not even know that this step was executed - he will only see the following dialog step. Just make sure that user has needed authorisations to do the things required in the background step.
    3) Another option could be to check if you could use a functional method of an ABAP class. Refer to Jocelyn Dart's blogs about OO in WF if you are not familiar with this stuff. Basically you could try to execute a functional method (including your code) from a container operation step that you could place between the decision steps. That will fill your container. Anyhow, I am not absolutely sure how this will affect to the "Advance With Immediate Dialog". Maybe the container operation with a functional method will stop the process similarly as happens now in your WF.

  • App update download failed with this dialog that cannot be dismissed

    In Snow Leopard, in Mac App Store click "Update", download busy spinner keep spinning and never finish. After I quit App Store app, I see this dialog behind all the windows on the desktop:
    mouse over it the busy beach ball shows up and click on "OK" does nothing.

    Yes, I couldn't figure out how to kill that dialog box. So I reboot. Running Mapc App Store update again and this time it worked.

  • Update should not happen in the name of WF-BATCH

    Hi All,
    I have a requirement to change the WF-BATCH to the other user id.
    The task completion or update should not happen in the name of WF-BATCH, instead it should happen with the name of the other user id.
    Please can anybody suggest on this..
    Thanks and Best Regards,
    Sushmitha

    Hello Sushmitha,
    Like I said, it is only working if a previous step was a dialog step for the same user.
    Then when all steps have advance with dialog it will automatically execute the "background" step (which is now dialog).
    If the "background" step is the first to be executed then this scenario does not work.
    It will only work if the agent has a previous work item AND is the one you want as the changed_by user.
    A work around would be to either
    a) check what the method does. If it executes a FM and if that FM has a parameter for changed by you can create a new method where you pass the changed_by user
    b) check if a bapi/fm exists which allows you to change the user
    c) create a program to execute the same logic as the method. Now you must create a new method where you can schedule this program as a background job with another user as the person who executes it.
    Kind regards, Rob Dielemans

  • My itunes is on an old computer.  So old that I can't update it and so Haven't used it in two years.  How can I move it to my new laptop and make sure this doesn't happen again?  Very frustrated that I've spend $$ but can't get my music.

    My itunes is on an old computer.  So old that I can't update it and so Haven't used it in two years.  How can I move it to my new laptop and make sure this doesn't happen again?  Very frustrated that I've spend $$ but can't get my music.
    I want so set up itunes on my laptop and make sure that I get all of my old music and any music shared from my sons' itunes accounts.  Do I have to set up itunes on my new laptop first and then use the same logins?  Really concerned about losing any music, etc.

    These are two possible approaches that will normally work to move an existing library to a new computer.
    Method 1
    Backup the library with this User Tip.
    Deauthorize the old computer if you no longer want to access protected content on it.
    Restore the backup to your new computer using the same tool used to back it up.
    Keep your backup up-to-date in future.
    Method 2
    Connect the two computers to the same network. Share your <User's Music> folder from the old computer and copy the entire iTunes library folder into the <User's Music> folder on the new one. Again, deauthorize the old computer if no longer required.
    Both methods should give the new computer a working clone of the library that was on the old one. As far as iTunes is concerned this is still the "home" library for your devices so you shouldn't have any issues with iTunes wanting to erase and reload.
    I'd recommend method 1 since it establishes an ongoing backup for your library.
    Note if you have failed to move contacts and calendar items across you should create one dummy entry of each in your new profile and iTunes should  merge the existing data from the device.
    If your media folder has been split out from the main iTunes folder you may need to do some preparatory work to make it easier to move. See make a split library portable.
    Should you be in the unfortunate position where you are no longer able to access your original library or a backup then then see Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device for advice on how to set up your devices with a new library with the maximum preservation of data.

  • Push Notifications. The Message "Connect to iTunes to Use Push Notifications "BBC History Magazine" notifications may include alerts, sounds and icon badges" keeps coming up in Newstand, also happens with National Geographic Magazine. HELP!

    The Message "Connect to iTunes to Use Push Notifications "BBC History Magazine" notifications may include alerts, sounds and icon badges" keeps coming up in Newstand, also happens with National Geographic Magazine. HELP!
    I have now followed multiple instructions from this and other forums. have turned push notifications off. Turned them on. Have updated to IOS 6. Have signed out and signed back in, have uninstalled all magazines and reinstalled. Have synced, and updated everything in iTunes.
    Nothing works,. Also cannot use youtube.

    Basic troubleshooting from the User's Guide is reset, restart, restore (first from backup then as new).  Try each of these in order until the issue is resolved.
    It might also be a good idea to contact Square for assistance.

  • XML Schema Collection (SQL Server 2012): Complex Schema Collection with Attribute - Should xs or xsd be used in the coding?

    Hi all,
    I just got a copy of the book "Pro SQL Server 2008 XML" written by Michael Coles (published by Apress) and try to learn the XML Schema Collection in my SQL Server 2012 Management Studio (SSMS2012). I studied Chapter 4 XML Collection of the book
    and executed the following code of Listing 4-8 Complex Schema with Attribute:
    -- Pro SQL Server 2008 XML by Michael Coles (Apress)
    -- Listing04-08.sql Complex XML Schema with Attribute

    It worked nicely. But, I just found out the coding that was downloaded from the website of Apress and I just executed was different from the coding of Listing 4-8 listed in the book: all the <xs: ....> and </xs: ..> in my SSMS2012 are
    listed as <xsd:...> and </xsd:...> respectively in the book!!??  The same thing happens in the Listing 4-3 Simple XML Schema, Listing 4-5 XML Schema and Valid XML Document with Comple Type Definition, Listion 4-6 XML Schema and XML
    Document Document with Complex Type Using <sequence> and <choice>, and Listing 4-7 Complex XML Schema and XML Document with Model Group Definition (I executed last week) too.  I wonder: should xs or xsd be used in the XML
    Schema Collection of SSMS2012?  Please kindly help,  clarify this matter and explain the diffirence of using xs and xsd for me.
    Thanks in advance,
    Scott Chang   

    Hi Scott,
    Using xs or xsd depends on how you declare the namespace prefix.
      <xs:schema xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema">
      <xs:element name="item">
    I've posted a very good link in your last question, just in case you might have missed it, please see the below link.
    Understanding XML Namespaces
    In an XML document we use a namespace prefix to qualify the local names of both elements and attributes . A prefix is really just an abbreviation for the namespace identifier (URI), which is typically quite long. The prefix is first mapped to a namespace
    identifier through a namespace declaration. The syntax for a namespace declaration is:
    xmlns:<prefix>='<namespace identifier>'

  • Dante font used in manuscript - when I try to save as a pdf document in Microsoft Word whole pages change their look, with wide gaps forming between certain paragraphs or sections. This does not happen with other fonts.

    Dante font used in manuscript … when I try to save as a pdf document in Microsoft Word whole pages change their look, with wide gaps forming between certain paragraphs or sections. This does not happen with other fonts.

    OK, we've got it!
    What is happening is that when you use Microsoft's save as PDF in Word, the font isn't embedded even though the font is tagged to allow embedding. Furthermore, Microsoft doesn't properly put the font name into the PDF file such that Acrobat or Reader can readily find the font installed on your system such that the text can be properly displayed and/or printed. Acrobat and Reader attempt to display and/or print the text using a “substitution font” and of course, as they say, YMMV (“your mileage may vary”)!
    I personally submitted the report of this problem (both the embedding and the font name problem) to Microsoft. They acknowledge the bug, tried a fix and provided me a build with it, but it wasn't right. Maybe they will ultimately fix it, maybe they won't. We don't know yet. We do know that if it is fixed, it will be fixed only for Office 2013 (problem occurs with all Office applications since they use the same PDF generation code) and thus such a fix won't help you.
    Adobe Acrobat Standard and Acrobat Pro  both provide an Adobe PDFMaker plug-in to Office applications (including full support for Office 2010) that adds an Acrobat Toolbar as well as a Save as Adobe PDF menu item. The resultant PDF file fully supports embedding of OpenType CFF, TrueType, and Type 1 fonts and in many other ways produces much superior PDF with a full range of PDF generation options not available with the Microsoft PDF. (Note that beginning with Office 2013, Microsoft does not support Type 1 fonts in Office documents at all, even for existing documents!) The Acrobat Office functions are widely used and respected in the end user community and whatever “issues” there are (all software has “issues” of some type - it is a matter of how many and how severe), you should be in much better shape for PDF production that with what you currently are using.
    Good luck and let us know if this resolves your problems. (Note that you can download and install a free fully-functional 30 trial of Acrobat Pro to assure that it meets your needs! You can then buy a license and activate what you already have installed.)

  • Using a new monitor, Mozilla Firefox now has a distracting horizontal line every few lines when scrolling. This doesn't happen with another browser. HELP!

    The horizontal, wavering "line" is disruptive when scrolling. What's causing this. Doesn't happen with other browser and I'd like to stay with Mozilla Firefox, if we can resolve this. Thank you.

    hi Liza5, maybe that's an issue with hardware acceleration - please try [[Upgrade your graphics drivers to use hardware acceleration and WebGL|updating your graphics driver]] or in case there is no new version available at the moment or this doesn't solve the issue, disable hardware acceleration in the firefox ''menu ≡ > options > advanced > general'' (that setting will take a restart of the browser to take effect).

  • What happens with bootcamp after ios update

    Hello,
    I am about to update from ios 10.7 to 10.8 (Mountain Lion). What happens with my (data on) bootcamp? Do I need to reinstall it?
    Thanks in advance.
    Regards,
    Marcel Rombeek

    iOS and Mac OS X are completely separate things, so I'm a bit confused. But assuming you're referring solely to updating Mac OS X, upgrading to Mountain Lion should not affect your Bootcamp partition in any way, though with Mountain Lion not yet released, we can't say with absolute certainty.

    Restore your library from an up to date backup.
    If you don't have a backup (which you really should), see turingtest2's user tip on Empty/corrupt iTunes library after upgrade/crash for steps necessary to restore your library within iTunes - this assumes that your media is all present on your computer, as it always should be.
    Otherwise, see tt2's notes on Recover your iTunes library from your iPod or iOS device

    PS - I just sent this to a few of my friends in the big hardware review sites, as well as a few apple execs:
    Whats up guys? Its your old buddy dom "battleship mtron author , 9 ssd drives in raid 0" years ago. lol
    I wanted to fill you in on a HUGE problem with the new ios 6 update.
    My iphone 4 updated without a hitch.
    My ipad 3 on the other hand has a HUGE PROBLEM. It is essentially a brick without wifi (since the device relies on wifi for just about every task).
    There are currently hundreds of a users within the last 2 hours reporting the same error on the apple discussions site.
    https://discussions.apple.com/message/19626235#19626235
    What happens is simple:
    1. Download and install the update on Ipad 3.
    2. Try and connect to your normal wifi connection.
    3. It will connect for a few seconds and than fail stating "no internet connection available"
    4. It is no a brick without wifi accessibility. (unless we revert to ios 5)
    I have tried resetting my router. Resetting settings on the ipad. Renewing the ip address both LOCALLY and through the WAN at the cable modem and rebooting all of my networking equipment (ie: router), I even tried doing a complete wipe and re-install of ios 6 fresh. You guys know I am a tech geek from my background and I have tried everything so I just wanted to fill you in on this potential problem for apple.
