How to pass the uwl data in BPM to other portal?

Hi,gurus,
I have two questions about BPM?
1. I want to pass the UWL data in BPM to other portal (BEA Websphere portal),how to do that?If websphere portal offered a method to me,how can I pass the parameter to that method?At first,we want to use the SAP EP uwl,and display the uwl in BEA portal.But at last,they want to create some tables in BEA and offer a method to CE BPM. So how to do that?
2.How to call ecc workflow in BPM?And how to call BPM in ECC workflow?
Thanks in advance.Any help will be appreciated!

Hi,
Regarding your qustion on calling SAP Busines Workflow from BPM and vice versa, I think directly it is not possible to give a call. You can invoke outside functionality only if you can expose it as a Web Service which can be used as an automated activity or in a Human Task with custom code.
Hope this help!!

Upload attachment using BPM File Chooser in OBPM 10g

Hi,
I am currently working on OBPM 10g.
Can anyone please help me with upload attachment using BPM File Chooser using BPM Presentation?????

Do not use the existing Fuego.Ui.FileChooser component. This OOTB Oracle BPM component would work fine if you're trying to get a file from the server where the Engine is running, but will not work if you want a file from the end user client's machine.
Take a look at a project I uploaded to http://www.4shared.com/file/aq-cY2qN/_2__FileChooserDemo.html
It has both a JSP and a BPM Object presentation. The BPM Object presentation has a button called "Attach File", If you click in the presentation editor and then click the Properties tab you'll see that its "Name" property is "AttachFile" and the Action property is set to "submit". This means that it will return the text "AttachFile" in the result predefined variable in the screenflow. If you open the screenflow, you'll see the conditional transition from the "AttachmentViewerInteractive" to the "FileChooser" task. The name of this transition is "AttachFile". Because this was named "AttachFile", the logic behind this transition evaluates if "result ==AttachFile".
Be careful with this example project. It will succeed when a small text or binary file < 100k is selected. It will go to the "File is too big" task in the screenflow shown below when the file > 100k. To make this maximum size limit larger, simply add a new line in your
<Oracle BPM Enterprise Home Directory>\webapps\workspace\WEB-INF\workspace.properties file:
# Max size of a file coming from a client machine (default is 100k)
fuego.workspace.servlet.Attachment.MAX_ATTACHMENT_SIZE=2000000
Once the file has been retrieved, do not store this as an instance variable unless it has been marked as a “Separated” instance variable.
The “AttachView1.jsp” is invoked from the Interactive activity’s “FileChooser” task in the screenflow.
Once the end user selects the file from the JSP, work flows to the “Add file” task. This is where you can retrieve the selected file’s:
- Name: fileHolder.file_filename variable
- Content type: fileHolder.file_content_type variable
- Contents: fileHolder.file binary variable

Task UWL and Warnings BPM process

Hi,
I have two questions about:
- Created Tasks in the UWL
- Warnings BPM process.
I have created a BPM process with a one human activitie. This human activity assigned to a task with one potential owner. When i start the process and open the portal UWL, two tasks has been generated!?. Both are the same because when i complete the first task and open the second task, i get the message: " Task has been already completed ".
Second question: when i open the created BPM process, the following warnings appears in the problem tab of NWDS:
Some of the data elements from input mapping of "Cancelled"is not initialized before used.
Some of the data elements from input mapping of "Completed"is not initialized before used.
How can i solve this warning?
Kind regards,
Martin Gerritsen

Hi Martin,
Regarding the "double-task". How did you invoke the process? Via web service? Via NWA? Might it be possible that you submitted the request twice (e.g. double-click instead of a single click?) and that's the reason why 2 tasks are apparing? Or does this happen every time when you start the process?
Just a best guess.
Best regards,
Martin
Martin,
The process will be started by a web service. This service is created as a new WSDL in the BPM environment. This service is connected to the start event of the BPM process and contains a few import parameters. After that i called the service from a R/3 system which started the process.
The 2 tasks apparing everytime i start the process...
When i start the process from the process repository (Netweaver Administrator -> Configuration Management -> Processes and tasks), i get the same problem...
The process contains two human activity's. When the first activity is completed and the second human activity start, 2 tasks will be generated (both the same...)

How to bring attachement in BPM

Hello,
We are on XI3.0 SP10.
This question concerns an RFC to SOAP scenario.
we are sending purchase order from EBP to XI by RFC (bapi).
Inside XI we use a BPM for mapping.
RFC doesn't support attachements.
How can we catch the attachement in the BPM in order to join it to the final message sent by the soap adapter?
Hoping for your answers,
Best regards,
Laurent.

Hi Matias,
Thanks for these helpful answers.
For me i have now two solutions :
1. Change the RFC adapter with a Proxy to send the bapi (BAPI_POEC_XML_SEND) that sends po to XI. Is this possible?
2. "in the trigger program before the sending of this bapi, there is a step that you can configure to send the full content of the attachement to a webserver. (spro settings.) below is the module function that sends the attachement."
        CALL FUNCTION 'HTTP_PUT_COMPONENT'
          EXPORTING
            absolute_uri     = lv_attach_url_write
            proxy            = lv_proxy
            user             = lv_user
            password         = ls_att_pub-i_password
            component_length = lv_filesize
          IMPORTING
            status_code      = lv_statuscode
            status_text      = lv_statustext
          TABLES
            component_data   = ls_attach-phio_content
          EXCEPTIONS
            connect_failed   = 1
            timeout          = 2
            internal_error   = 3
            tcpip_error      = 4
            OTHERS           = 5.
The phio_content is binary data sent with type RAW - 1022.
In the bapi sending step (second step of trigger program) there is no standard way to send the phio content but only url."
My first reaction was to add the phio_content to the bapi and send it with it.
But is there a way to rebuild the attachement afterwards in xi or in marketplace?
The other solution like you said is to follow standard that sends attachement to webserver. send the url by the bapi with rfc adapter.
Add a 'receive step' in the BPM that will look for the url on the webserver with a file or soap adapter and then bundle the two messages together to send it with the soap adapter.
Which solution should be the best?
Thanks for all.
Regards,
Laurent.

Adding Attachment to BPM Instance when initiated via IPM

Hi,
I've successfully done a BPM process instance creation from IPM. Now my requirement is to add attachments which are required for a human task inside BPM and that too from IPM side. Is that possible to attach documents from the IPM (Documents originally located in UCM) to BPM instance?

Thanks for your response.
Yah, What you said is correct, the document URI is the field which can hold the document URL (which is used for mapping payload with respective fields) that is used for initiating the BPM instance. My problem is I want to include the attachments too.
For Example,
customerdata.csv is the document which is going to initiate the respective BPM process. I want to include the ID_Proof.pdf (either document as attachment in the attachment section of the BPM process or UCM link of that document) with instance that is to be created.
According to your answer, the document uri field can only hold the link for customerdata.csv but not the ID_proof.pdf.
Please help me regarding this.

Uwl Attachment not rendering

Hi expets,
When trying to open attachment of an work item(which is a pdf) the system opens a transaction and generates pdf and saves it in the local path c:\documents and settings\user2\test.pdf but while trying to open it trys try's to open the path c:\documents and settings\*user2test.pdf* . which it unable to open as there is no backslash between user2 and test.pdf.....
Can you please tell me where can i actually change this path?
Thanks in advance.
Chowdary

Hi Chowdary
From your description of the scenario I imagine that you will be able to find how this link is being constructed in the UWL XML files.
There you can check how UWL constructs the URL and so you can change the path to a more appropriate one.
In order to get to the right XML file inside UWL Administration you have to firstly know which is the XML file relevant for the workitems to which the issue occurs.
You will be able to get this information by enabling the UWL Support Information in the system, which allows UWL to show some technical information about each of the tasks. In order to enable this, follow the steps described on SAP Note 1532883.
When the support information gets displayed, you have to look at property "Item Type Configuration Name", which tells you the name of the XML file on UWL. Also write down the value of property "Item Type" which you will need afterward.
Now go to System Administration -> System Configuration -> Universal Worklist & Workflow -> Universal Worklist - Administration -> Click to Manage Item Types and View Definitions
Search for the configuration whose name is Item Type Configuration Name and download the same.
Edit the file and search for value Item Type inside of it.
There you will be able to find any "Action" inside this Item Type tag which is the one that makes the link you want to modify to appear.
Let me know if you are not able to find the action so that I can check how we can get further on this.
Kind regards,
Armando Zaro

Problem in closing UWL Task in BPM

Hi,
In WDJ UI, I have save and submit button.
On click of save button, the uwl task has to be created, the user may click submit button in same time or the user may not click the submit button.
When the user click the submit button after clicking save button, the task has to be completed and no open task should be visible in UWL, but in my case the uwl task is not completed. It's still in UWL.
When I open the task from UWL and click submit button, it's working fine.
Let me know, how to fix this problem.
Regards,
Sriram

Sorry for late reply. When I open the task from UWL and click submit the task get closed successfully.
But In my scenario, I have User A, in that there is save and submit button.
On click of save button, the task get generated, the user A may open the task from UWL or the user A may click submit button.
When the user A click submit button without opening the task from UWL, the already created task in UWL must get closed and it has to move to another user. ie User B
If you guys have any suggestion, please help me.

UWL Attachment Storage Location

Hi All
In the Portal's Inbox (UWL), there is a functionality to upload attachments through 'Create Task'.
Does anyone know where exactly (in terms of the storage location) these documents get uploaded to? Is it the ERP DB or the Portal DB or Portal KM?
Also, will they be stored in some Content Repository (Tcode OAC0), if so, which content repository are they stored in?
Thanks in advance.
Joy

Where are you changing the storage location?

UWL Attachment under the Notification Tab not opening up

Hi
I have deployed the SONIC for viewing the notification . There is a rejection task notification with rejection comments in it and the file comes as Comment.int. The file Comment.int is opening up from SAP Inbox but when I try opening it from Portal it just opens up as a blank text file.
Need some urgent help.

Hello,
What version is the UWLJWF component - including SP's and patches? Also, does the same happen if you pull in a .txt file? It may just be the extension type that is not liked.

BPM 11g Attachment

Hello there,
I was wondering if there was a way to configure maximum file size that is allowed as an attachment to BPM 11g process. We are building a process and we need
to attach document as big as 50MB, but it seems like default limit on file size is 2MB. We are using 11.1.1.5 version of SOA site.
Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks,
Sumeet

I do not think this is bug based on
Oracle® Fusion Middleware Modeling and Implementation Guide for Oracle Business Process Management
23.1.1 Understanding the Relationship Between SOA Composites and SOA Components
"In a similar way, when an interrupting timer or message boundary event arrives to a user task, the BPMN process instance leaves the user task but the associated Human Task remains available. Because the interrupting timer or message boundary event arrived before the user completes the user task, the human task remains unfinished, and you can still access it thought the Worklist application. However running that human task does not have any effect on the BPMN process."
This also gives us big trouble. I am looking for the solution.
