BO and HTML

Hi,
in BO infoview (XI 3), i would like to display something like "Some bold text: Hello world "
I put the read as Html option but it doesn't consider the bold tag. Any ideas?
Thx you

HI ,
yes, for this you will have to carry out some UWL configuration .
It can be done in following ways
1) by manually creating and uploading XML
2) use of transaction SWFVISU
3) by using UWL configration wizard from UWL adminitstrator page .
best to use SWFVISU as sap applications deliver content in SWFVISU out-of -the-box.
moreover , its much easier than manual XML changes.

Can we approve working time in UWL without MSS web appl?

Hello Friends,
I have a doubt thats bugging me for the past one week, I have a requirement where an employee enters working time through portal and the manager should approve through the portal.
I have configured ESS and also the backend, thus when an employee enters his working time and releases , a workitem is created in the managers inbox at the backend.
I am using the approval reports RCATSB01 for approving working time in the backend.
I am planning to do the UWL config so that managers can access workitems through portal, Can i use this approval report to approve working time in UWL or is it mandatory to use "Approve working Time" web application from MSS.
Regards
Sriram

Hello Ashutosh,

Created a sytem in system landscape (alias UWL_SYSTEM) and registered in UWL
registered all item types for the system.
Now i can able to see the workitems in the UWL but when i click on the work item Approve working time i get an error

Opening application from Tracking tab of UWL

Hi All,
I am editing XML to open WDA application from "Tracking" tab of UWL .
But when I click the link of tasks on "Tracking" tab , explanation of the task is displayed by popup .
I want to open WDA application which displayed data gotten from SAP by workitem ID .
On task tab , links of "Task" tab work collectly , display the WDA application and passed workitem ID .
My procedure is described below .
1. I added the entry at SWFVISU to output the WDA application from "Task" tab .
2. I downloaded uwl.webflow.UWLSETXXX.XML file .
3. On the XML file , I copied entries made by the first process , and I modified the source .
I update just name and defaultview .
- name
before :<ItemType name="uwl.request.webflow.TS91000005.UWLSETXXX"
after: <ItemType name="uwl.task.webflow.WS91000001"
I had seen UWL support Information of "Tracking" tab items .
Item type of "Tracking" tab is like "uwl.task.webflow.WS91000001" . It does not contain system ID ".UWLSETXXX" .
It is difference "Task" tab and "Tracking" tab .
- defaultview
before : defaultView="DefaultView"
after : defaultView="WorkItemRequestsView"
4. I upload the XML file as the new name "uwl.webflow.UWLSETXXX_new" .
5. Clear cashes .
I notified that there is not "Item type configration name" in UWL support information of "Tracking" tab .
But UWL support information of "Task" tab has the data : uwl.webflow.UWLSETXXX_new in "Item type configration name" .
Does it matter ?
Help me .
I saw the below documents , but I do not resolve the problem .

Error While Registering a system in UWL

Hi
I have configured a system in UWL after going to Universal Worklist Administration -> Configuration Framework Page -> UWL Systems Configuration.
Now when i am registering it, it shows the following
error:
System SAP_YY_XXXX: com/sap/portal/services/api/connectorgateway/IConnectorGatewayService
Though the corresponding entry for the gateway information has been made in the services file in the drivers/etc:
sapqw41 3341/tcp # SAP Systems Gateway
But still the same error is coming.
Is there any other step which is being missed out.
Any information in this regard will be helpful.
Thanks & regards,
Anupreet

Dear Koti,

Can not see the details of the task approved in UWL of ESS

Leave approver can not see the detail of the task approved such as the start and end date of the leave, number of days used, leave quota details of the applicant when he approved it.
Please give your advises!
Regards,

Hi!
Maybe these attributes are not being shown due to the fact that they might have been specified in the "List of Display Attribute to exclude from Preview/Detail area" attribute of the UWL iview currently being used.
As you can see in the Help page:
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/de/0a/ad68c125ae496f8c04a25090bd2e3c/content.htm
It states the following about this attribute:
"Enter the names of the attributes which you want to hide from the display in the preview area. These names should be comma separated."
Maybe for the UWL iview currently being used it has been specified some values for this attribute, and so some information for the items such as the start and end date of the leave (along with the others you have mentioned) are not getting displayed in the preview area.
Hope this helps!
Best regards,
Armando Zaro

UWL: The request cannot be started from the Business Workplace?

Hi All
Please assist I am currently trying to execute the standard leave request approval within the UWL.
This is the standard leave approval screen for workflow template WS12300111.
I get the below error in a SAP ECC easy web screen.
The request cannot be started from the Business Workplace
Message no. HRTIM_ABS_REQ066
Can anyone give me any insight to this as I have made multiple changes tothe UWL config.
Regards
Maahir

BY seeing the error message I think you might have not registered the task in the Portal, as you are have mentioned easy web screen
1. When ever you are trying to execute the workitem from the UWL and you are able to See the SBWP SAP inbox in the browser then it means that the task of the workflow is not registered in the portal.
2. Please ask your portal team to register the task in UWL with corresponding visualization parameters.
[check for the parameters that are to be configured|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/20/f0c82c9f6748c58d9ea14b3bbed93a/frameset.htm]
You cannot execute a leave workitem from the Inbox. if you try to execute then it prompts the error message that you have mentioned.
Try to do check all the below points.
1. Check whether the task TS12300097 is registered in the SWFVISU txn it should be using a Java Application. with the parameters
APPLICATION     LeaveRequestApprover
DYNPARAM     wi_id=${item.externalId}
PACKAGE     sap.com/ess~lea
2. Second thing is make the task as General Task from the PFTC txn. so that the agent can approve
3. Ask the portal guys to register this task in the XML file where all the application specific task's are registred. and then try to execute the workitem, this time it will show you the leave request application.

UWL CATS time approval error "No data exists that needs to be approved"

Hi all,
We approve CATS working time through SAP portal UWL. The user can see the workitem in her UWL inbox, but got an error u201CNo data exists that needs to be approvedu201D when he tried to execute the workitem. But the user is able to execute the workitem using Business workplace in ECC. We are using the standard UWL application.
This happens only to CATS time entries for certain type of employees (for example, the employees who do not report directly to the approver).
SAP Portal 7.0
SAP MSS 600 SP19
SAP UWLJWF 7.00 sp23
SAP ECC 6.0
Here is what I have found from my trouble-shooting. When I test (preview) the UWL iView, it seems to be working fine. But when I call up the iView from the portal MSS role, I got the error message u201CNo data exists that needs to be approved.u201D
Please let me know if you need more information.
Thank you,
Qi

I have found that the workitem ID is not passed to the CATS approval web dynpro program. Here is what is in the Item Type configuration XML. Is there anything missing?

Hi Sateesh,
This message will appear if either the background jobs are not scheduled, or UWL cannot tell that the background jobs are scheduled. The message no longer appears once you ensure the background jobs are scheduled to run via the user id UWL_SERVICE and that user is mapped to my portal user ID UWL_SERVICE.

Action Buttons are not getting displayed in UWL

Hi Experts,
I am facing some issues in UWL action buttons and I need your help in resolving this.
When a request is generated in ECC systems, a notification is generated in ECC as well as portal.
In ECC, we can see two buttons in the notification, "Complete" and "Cancel work item in Inbox".
But in portal, these two buttons are not visible in the notifications.
Please let me know how to bring these action buttons in UWL portal.
Thanks a lot,

First of all, please see SAP Note 1133821 - UWL Destination Service Configuration and create the RFC destination as explained in the note.
The procedure is also explained in the wiki:
