Use of SHOW MY TASKS button

Hi,
We are on SRM 7. ECS.
I'm confused regarding the use of SHOW MY TASKS which appears in the shopping cart screen.
If I create a shopping cart which needs aapproval by my manager sya USER B,then how can user use the SHOW MY TASKS button to directly approve my cart until and unless he sees the cart in his POWL?
Are there any settings for POWL so that users can see the carts which are peniding for their approval even though they are created by some other user?
Pls advise.

how can user use the SHOW MY TASKS button to directly approve my cart until and unless he sees the cart in his POWL?
SHOW MY TASKS button is not used to directly approve the cart. The approver will not find the cart through POWL, but through his/her UWL (Universal Worklist), which is usually under the tab "Home" >> "Overview" >> "Universal Worklist". The approver can see all the workitems in UWL and click into each document to view and approve from there.
Are there any settings for POWL so that users can see the carts which are peniding for their approval even though they are created by some other user?
There is no setting in configuration so that users can see others' shopping cart through POWL. The POWL showing only the user's own shopping carts (or as requester in the case of "shop on behalf") is the standard feature of SRM.

Button "Show my tasks"

Hi experts,
I would like to get rid off the "show my task" button that is available in some / all documents.
So far I tried customizing using this path:
SAP Supplier Relationship Management --> SRM Server ---< Cross-applicaiton Basic Settings --> Extensions and Field Control (Personalization) --> Control Actions --> Display Standard Metadata Tables for Actions on Header Level
either the button is not there or I couldn't find it.
Alternatively I took a look at WD component FPM_OIF_COMPONENT and View CNR-INFO but couldn't find the button there either.
Who can tell me to hide the button?
Best regards,
Marcus

Hi cg_srm,
what you need to do is to find out what Web Dynpro application and what component configuration is involved. You do this by right clicking on the SRM screen and selecting "more field help".
Then go to SE80 and find the WebDynpro component and the component configuration. If you double click on the configuration you will get a button on the right side of the screen that reads "start configurator". If you click on that an brwoser window opens where you can create an enhancement of the existing configuration (you should not edit the existing SAP standard configuration). In that enhancement you can do whatever changes are necessary, hide buttons, edits texts etc.
Best regards,
Marcus

Open This Task button in Outlook throwing error

We are running SharePoint 2010 Foundation. I have a List with a Workflow. When a new item is created in the List, SharePoint creates a task, and sends me an e-mail.
The e-mail states that I need to use the "Open This Task" button to mark the task as completed. When I click the "Open This Task" button, I get an error dialog pop-up in Outlook (happens in Outlook 2013 and 2010).
The error message states: "An error occurred while retreiving the workflow task details. This may be caused by: 1) Not having connectivity to the server, 2) The task no longer exists, 3) You do not have permission to access the task.
If the error persists, contact your system administrator."
However, when I view the same e-mail through our Outlook Web App, I get a link to click on, which takes me right to the task in SharePoint.
So my question is two-fold. First, does anyone have any idea on how to get the "Open this task" button to work in Outlook 2010 and 2013? Secondly, does anyone know where I can go to change the template of the e-mail that SharePoint
sends out when a task is created?
Thanks in advance!!!

This is still an issue. Any one have any suggestions at all?

I am using my Description as the caption on Slideshow. I ticked the "Show Title Slide" button and iPhoto physically copied the description on the first slide onto the end of every other description. I can find no way of removing them other than by hand.

Attached is Dennis Linam’s Audition – “Log File” and “Log – Last File”
Contact information Dennis [email protected]
Previous contact information with your organization (DURIM):
Dennis - i just finished my audition trial and bought the subscription the 2014 version.
created by durin in Audition CS5.5, CS6 & CC - View the full discussion
DURIM - Okay. I would expect the "Cache Warning" message because your default directories would not be the same as the ones in the settings file I generated.
If you go back to the "7.0" directory and open the "Logs" folder, can you copy the "Audition Log.txt" file and send it as an attachment to [email protected]? We'll take a look in that logfile and see if it gives us more information about why this is failing now.
Also, do you have any other Adobe applications installed on this machine, such as Premiere Pro? If so, do they launch as expected or fail as well?
I do have the trial Pro version of Adobe reader, but I have not activated it, because I fear the same thing will happen did it. I cannot afford to activate the subscription for that product and take the chance of it not working either. I depend on those two programs religiously. Here is the files that you requested. I appreciate any help you can give me to get this audition program started

Sharepoint Designer Workflow - Edit this task button not showing in outlook for some users.

Hello all,
I have created a "collect data from user" workflow in Sharepoint Designer, with around 9 "else" instances as to who to collect data from. My problem is that some users do not have the "Edit this task" button at the top of the email (Nor do they have the
"create rule.." button). They DO have the enabled hyperlink in the body of the email, which brings them to a screen where they can view the details of the task, then edit it by clicking on "Edit".
My users who have the button at the top of the email are having a much more simplified experience, and I would like all users to have it. All permissions are equivalent across the board as best I can tell. Is this an Outlook settings issue perhaps?
Any input is much appreciated!
Thanks!

Hi Fender,
Please can you confirm which version of Outlook your users have (and if they are all on the same version)? All my none 2007 users lack the Edit Item button, and have to use the links in the body of the email, which I believe is simply due to the fact that
2003 et al lacks the same SharePoint integration options as 2007.
Cheers
Stew

Hi, this is amit from india. just started using iphone 4s. i am observing that when an incoming call comes, the phone smtimes shows two virtual buttons of red and green color so as to attend or reject the call. but smtimes it just shows green button with a slider to attend the call and there is no red button to reject the call. is it a bug or some setting?

Because it behaves differently depending on whether the phone is locked (in standby) or unlocked (in use) when the call comes in.

Firefox shows in task manager, but won't open

Firefox doesn't open, though it opens once in a while. It shows in task manager and takes up 50% CPU usage, and ending process and retrying doesn't work. Profile manager doesn't open either. There's no error message, and have restarted laptop (Windows XP) many times, but no results.
Help would be appreciated!

Certain Firefox problems can be solved by performing a ''Clean reinstall''. This means you remove Firefox program files and then reinstall Firefox. Please follow these steps:
'''Note:''' You might want to print these steps or view them in another browser.
#Download the latest Desktop version of Firefox from http://www.mozilla.org and save the setup file to your computer.
#After the download finishes, close all Firefox windows (click Exit from the Firefox or File menu).
#Delete the Firefox installation folder, which is located in one of these locations, by default:
#*'''Windows:'''
#**C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox
#**C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox
#*'''Mac:''' Delete Firefox from the Applications folder.
#*'''Linux:''' If you installed Firefox with the distro-based package manager, you should use the same way to uninstall it - see [[Installing Firefox on Linux]]. If you downloaded and installed the binary package from the [http://www.mozilla.org/firefox#desktop Firefox download page], simply remove the folder ''firefox'' in your home directory.
#Now, go ahead and reinstall Firefox:
##Double-click the downloaded installation file and go through the steps of the installation wizard.
##Once the wizard is finished, choose to directly open Firefox after clicking the Finish button.
Please report back to see if this helped you!

Possible to hide JFrame yet show on task bar?

Hello All,
Is this possible? I would like to show the JFrame button on the taskbar, but not show the JFrame itself. This is because there is a JDialog to show, but if the user alternates windows, he is liable to lose the JDialog, unless he presses Alt-Tab, which many users may not know about. It would be preferable to have the application showing in the taskbar, but how to do it without showing the JFrame?
Thank you,
Linda

Why not just use a JFrame instead of a JDialog? That way it gets its own spot on the task bar, and it can contain all the same things a dialog can. If you have some special situation that prevents this solution, please elaborate on why you want an invisible main window with a visible dialog.

Firefox has spontaneously decided not to show the task bar at the bottom of the screen, and some menu bars have been messed up. How can I fix this?

My Firefox has spontaneously (apparently) decided not to show the task bar at the bottom of the screen (the margin is there, but it is blank), and some menu bars have been messed up. Perhaps the most annoying aspect of these changes is the fact that I have to use alt-tab to move from a Firefox session to another session.
I can find no way to fix these problems. Can you help? Am I going to have to uninstall and re-install Firefox in order to get back to the default settings? If so, is there any way to preserve my bookmarks?

Make sure that you do not run Firefox in full screen mode (press F11 or Fn + F11 to toggle; Mac: command+Shift+F).<br />
If you are in full screen mode then hover the mouse to the top to make the Navigation Toolbar and Tab bar appear.<br />
You can click the Maximize button at the top right to leave full screen mode or right click empty space on a toolbar and use "Exit Full Screen Mode" or press F11.

I have hidden unwanted books from the purchased area of the iBooks store, but they're are still appearing on the front page of iOS as cloud downloads, is there a way to remove these from iBooks without using the hide iCloud books button?

I have hidden unwanted books from the purchased area of the iBooks store, but they're are still appearing on the front page of iOS as cloud downloads, is there a way to remove these from iBooks without using the hide iCloud books button?
Let me explain a little more. I had downloaded a lot of free books in the past as a trial when iBooks was first released and since then I have decided I no longer want them, because of this I hid them from the purchased section of the iBooks store. The 5 books left are ones I decided to keep as seen in the following picture.
This is how it appears in iBooks on my mac. There are 4 books downloaded and 1 book that I have decided not to download at this time. I would still like to keep this book available in the cloud incase I want to download it again in the future. You’ll notice that hide iCloud books is not selected, if I wanted to hide the book that I have chosen to keep in the cloud, but have not downloaded yet I could.
This is exactly how I think this feature should work. If you have hidden a book from your purchases it should not show up in the mac Ibooks app. (I am aware you can never actually delete a purchase, just hide them and that hidden purchases can be restored to your account from within the account management section of the iBooks store).
The iOS app is working differently for me. Here is a picture of the purchased tab on the iBooks store in iOS Ibooks. Again notice that pictures of Lilly is still yet to be downloaded. This is how I expected it to look.
If we visit the front page of iOS iBooks the view is very different from what I expected. Here we can see the 4 books I wanted to keep on my device and have downloaded. We can also see the 1 book I wanted to keep, but did not want to store locally on the device and left in iCloud (Pictures of Lilly). However we can also see all the books I had hidden from the purchased section of my iTunes account and which I believe should no-longer be visible, Dracula, frankenstein etc…
I am aware of the hide iCloud books button within the iOS app, but I did not need to use this to hide the books I had removed from the my purchased section of the iBooks store on the mac, why are they still appearing in iOS?
I’m still not sure if this is a software glitch or not. This article suggests to me that books can be hidden, but I had already completed these steps.
https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201322
A browse of google also suggests people may have been able to hide past purchases from the front page of iBooks on iOS in the past.
In case there was an issue with syncing I tried logging in and out of my iTunes account via settings in iOS. Force closing the app, disabling automatic downloads and removing my device from iTunes in the cloud. Syncing with iTunes on the mac did not correct the issue either.
Interestingly I have the same issue on my iPhone 6 running iOS 8.3 as I do on my iPad mini suggesting that this might be an issue either with my account or with iOS iBooks software in general.
If there is a way to remove the already hidden iBooks in your account from the front page of iBooks on iOS without using the hide iCloud downloads button? Please help community!

Open Task Button does not come in Outlook

I have a three level approval workflow in which each level an email is generated to the approve to approve or reject.
But suddenly the Open Task Button does not pop up in Outlook 2010 anymore can you tell me why?
Srinivasan Kidambi

had the same issue with External users not using Outlook. This is how I fixed it:
Open the task list that the workflow is using and connect it to Outlook. Then kick off a workflow to make a new task. Once the task is made open the task from Outlook. The bottom options (review, perform the specific req. for the task, and Open this task)
are now links. Hover your mouse over the link and you will see the address.
Now open SPD, connect to your site and open the work flow assc. to the doc lib.
Start editing the workflow and click the "Approval" link
Click "Change the behavior of a single task"
You are going to have to look for all the instances of "then e-mail task notification to "Current Task:Assigned to"
Open "Current Task:Assigned to"
Click where you want he link to go and hit the Hyperlink button
name the link whatever you want, then hit the string builder ("..." button)
Copy the link from the Task in Outlook into the string builder (if you use External addressing you can also hard code the External address).
At the very end of the link where is says ID=(then a number) delete the number and DO NOT put a space. Click the Add or Change Lookup button and use "Current Task: Approval" "ID" "As String" and click ok. Should like this:
Now this will not pop the form up, but it will send the user straight to the task form (might have to enter username and password) for the correct task. Remember to do this to all the "Current Task:Assigned to" in the workflow. It sounds like a chuck of
work but it does not really take thaty long on the OOTB Approval workflow.
Just wanted wanted to add my two cents.

Show your tasks in the calendar view - Outlook Web App

Hi,
Is it possible to show your tasks in the calendar view in Outlook Web App 2013 ?
Some explanations of what I want to do :-)
We use Project Server so user can encode their work, this tasks are sync with an Exchange Server 2013 so tasks can be view in Outlook Web App. It's working really fine but we also want that in OWA, tasks are showed in a calendar so users can share what they
have to do.
How can we add the tasks into a calendar or how can an user can easily share what he do ?
Thanks,
Patmol

Hi Patmol,
Tasks are not listed in
calendar in Outlook/OWA, To view task you will have to go to
Tasks folder or view the task
in To-do bar. You can also see the tasks for the day
in calendar folder if you go to Daily Task List. There are no Add-ins from Microsoft that can add
tasks in the
calendar along with Meetings/Appointments.
Thanks,
James

Task buttons in PC Suite 6.82.22.0 Do Not Respond

Having just purchased a new N80 phone and installed the latest version of the PC Suite I find that the following task buttons do not respond when clicked: Backup, Synchronise, Install Apps, View Multimedia, Store Images, Transfer Music, Manage Connections and Update Phone Software. The other bottons do respond when clicked. This problem applies to both USB and Bluetooth connections - the only oconnections I use. I read the previous post by 'knase' and tried all of the suggestions made there but this did not fix the problem.
The applications do start if I start them from the ApplicationInstaller in the folder C:\Program Files\Nokia\Nokia PC Suite 6\ ->. How do I resolve the problem I am having?
I am running Windows XP SP2.

Like this:
1. Go to http://www.sysinternals.com/Utilities/Filemon.html and download Filemon (it is end of the page).
2. Start FileMon.exe and click 'Options', 'Filter/Highlight..' and set string:*launchapp* to 'Include' option.
3. Go to http://www.sysinternals.com/Utilities/Regmon.html and download Regmon (it is end of the page).
4. Start RegMon.exe and click 'Options', 'Filter/Highlight..' and set string: *launchapp* to 'Include' option.
5. Press 'Ctrl+X' to both tools and then open the task manager and select LaunchAppication.exe (or LaunchA~1.exe), press End Task button and then Ok.
6. Start LauchApplication (Start > Programs > Nokia Pc Suite > Nokia PC Suite)
7. Click button "Backup" and after that save log files and attach those in your response.
