UWL default view

Hi people,
In a SAP EP 6.0 SP14, I have added the default UWL iView to the content I intend to provide to the end users. It is working fine, but I need to check something.
For the tabs "Tasks" and "Tracking", there is a dropdown box where you can select one view among the available ones to display your items. My Portal has two options in this dropdown: <No Subview> and Collaboration.
The issue is that the view <No Subview> is the default one, but I would like to have Collaboration view as the default one.
Is it possible to configure? Can you please help me with documentation about that?
Thanks in advance
Fernando Urzedo

You need to customize the UWL XML configuration like this:
1. Download the configuration xml "uwl.standard" from the UWL administration / content configuration.
2. In the file, locate the tag <NavigationNode name="Main" ...>.
Keep it and the its nested tags, but delete all other tags like Actions, ItemTypes, Views in the XML (we do not want to customize them).
3. Make the file look like this:
<UWLConfiguration version="1.0">
  <NavigationNode name="root" view="" referenceGroup="">
    <NavigationNode name="Main" view="" referenceGroup="">
      <NavigationNode name="CombinedTask" view="<b>uwlTaskCollView"</b>
            referenceBundle="tasks">
        <b><NavigationNode name="any_name_here" view="uwlTaskCollView"
            referenceBundle="coll_task"/></b>
        <NavigationNode name="task2" view="DefaultView" referenceGroup=""
            referenceBundle="all_tasks">
... rest of nodes here ...
The key changes are in bold.
4. Upload the file in the UWL administration as new configuration (any name). It takes effect immediately, but you may need to log out / log on to see the changes.
Don't worry, if there is any problem, just delete your configuration and the UWL automatically reverts to the standard configuration.
The NavigationNodes under "Main" define the tabs.
The NavigationNodes under "CombinedTasks" (represents the task tab) define the entries in the first dropdown. With the configuration, you tell UWL to use the collaboration view as first and default entry in the task tab dropdown.
You can customize the tracking tab in a similar way (NavigationNode "CombinedTracking"). Unfortunately, I don't know the name of the collaboration tracking view, but you can figure it out easily by enabling the support info on the UWL iView. If you then select a UWL view at runtime, it shows you the view name (among other information) under the UWL.
Also, in case you don't have it yet, check out the UWL How-to guide: https://websmp101.sap-ag.de/~sapdownload/011000358700002683342004E/UWL.pdf
That's it for now,

  • Hiding action button from  UWL default view

    Hi All,
    In our UWL, we have created a subview for mass approval of leave requests.In this case, the mass approval button is appearing in default view as well.We want the buttons to be restricted only to the subviews and should not be displayed in the default view.
    We tried the below code in XML under default view but it didn't work
    <Action name="ApproveI" groupAction="yes" handler="uwlExcludeAction"   referenceBundle="levatt.ess.ApproveSelected"/>
    Pls. suggest how to hide this from default view.
    Thanks,
    Arun

    Hi Arun
    I hope you are well and many thanks for using the SAP Discussion Forums .
    Ok in relation to the scenario that you have described you mentioned:
    You created a subview for mass approval of leave requests.In this case, the mass approval button is appearing in default view as well. You want the buttons to be restricted only to the subviews and should not be displayed in the default view.
    <Action name="ApproveI" groupAction="yes" handler="uwlExcludeAction"   referenceBundle="levatt.ess.ApproveSelected"/>
    Firstly from a general perspective we need to remember two key principals in terms of the editing of XML files.
    XML files follow the concept of precedence. Therefore when you make changes to any XML files or create an entirely new XML file these files need to be re-uploaded with a new priority. To realize changes with XML files and see the changes "graphically displayed" on the portal you need to re-upload the files with a new priority of "High" or "Very High". Also after making the changes you need to clear the UWL Cache or restart the UWL Service (not portal) to see the desired changes displayed.
    The second point to highlight here is to ensure that you make and perform a backup of current XML files which are unedited. The reason for this is simply to allow changes to be reverted easily if required.
    Now back to the scenario you want to remove this mass approval option from the default view.
    There are a few approaches here, and I have outlined guidance documentation below for your cross referencing and convenience:

    XML Code To Remove Buttons
    UWL XML Code to remove buttons Forward,Resubmit and Assign to Me - Portal - SCN Wiki
    If you enable the support information for a given workitem associated with the button you should be able to remove the button action by removing the XML code or editing the "Actions To Exclude" section:
    Please enable the Support Information of UWL. You could find the details in the following note:
    SAP Note: 1532883 - How to Enable the Support Information for Troubleshooting issues in the Universal Worklist (UWL)
    There should be some reference to the Approval button in the file which will need to be removed.
    Kindly update me as per your findings and let me know if you find the desired resolution.
    I will be keeping an eye on the thread in the meantime awaiting your response.

  • Personalization in UWL MDM Views

    Hi All,
    Is there any ways to make "My Open MDM Jobs" as the default view?
    This is to make JobId visible as a separate column in the workflow inbox.
    Please put forth your suggestions.
    Regards,
    Nimal

    Hi Nimal
    By default MDM used standart UWL iView
    You can configurate fields which will view in UWL
    or use custom development for add new functionality for standart components

  • How to change the default view of published iCal's URL

    I am publishing an iCal for a nonprofit group and link to the calendar from the group's website. The default URL given (in the send publish email option) leads to the week view of the current week. I would prefer the link to take site visitors to the month view of the calendar. If I go to the month view and copy the URL for it, and use that for the link, I have to change the URL each month, because the URL that comes from the month view will only show the month it was at the time I copied the URL -- it will not change with the new month. Does anyone have any idea of how I can change the URL so that it leads to the month view of whatever the current month is?
    I should note that I know how to change the default view in the my browser, but I would rather not have to explain how to do this to all the people viewing the calendar -- just wanting the correct month view to show up when they click the link, without having to change it each month.
    I would be so grateful if anyone has some insight on this!
    Thanks.

    Carlo,
    The fact that this question has been left unanswered for over 2 months seems a little negligent on the part of Apple Support.
    This Forum is unfortunately not Apple Support. According to Apple:
    What is Apple Discussions and how can it help me? 
"Apple Discussions is a user-to-user support forum where experts and other Apple product users get together to discuss Apple products. You'll find a wealth of information about your favorite Apple hardware and software products that will help you get the most out of your purchase. You can participate in discussions about various products and topics, find solutions to help you resolve issues, ask questions, get tips and advice, and more.
    If you have a technical question about an Apple product, be sure to check out Apple's support resources first by consulting the application Help menu on your computer and visiting our Support site to view articles and more on our product support pages."
    In direct response to your questions, I would say that (as observed by the OP) anyone who subscribes to a published calendar can make a change to their desired view using the "Preferences" icon which is displayed underneath the mini-month calendars.
    There is no way that I know of to directly or conveniently change the time-range. There may be workarounds, but I could not find a suitable solution for you.
    I would recommend that you provide iCal Feedback, if you are interested in informing Apple of your desires.

  • How to change default view in web plugin?

    Anyone know how to set a default view in the Reader plugin in Firefox and/or IE?  I'm getting sick of having to manually show the task bar and then un-toggle touch mode to get my scroll bar back every time I open a PDF. Thanks!

    Thanks! I turned off Touch mode there (Edit\Preferences\General --> set
    Touch Mode to "Never")
    Then I poked around more and fixed the default view in
    Edit\Preferences\Internet --> unchecked "Display in read mode by default"

  • Changing the default view for Line Items in an Auction.

    Hello All,
    We have a version 5 client who is asking for us to change the default view for line items in an auction.
    Currently, if you have an auction setup, and you go to the Line Items tab, the default view is the "Basic View". The client would like to change the Default from "basic view" to "price view".
    Is there a way to change this default in the system? Can this be configured using query groups? Any information would be helpful.

    Hi wood cloud,
    This is not possible, bcz there is no VLV for that drop down and we cant set it  to the price view.
    Thanks,

  • Changing the Default View

    I would like to know if and how when I pop in a USB flash drive or view my photo

    Does that make it the default view everytime or must I do that each and every time I select the Pictures folder?    

  • How can i change the default view of recent calls?

    Hi,
    A similar question was asked here:
    https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3072545?start=0&tstart=0
    And was not answered.
    The default view of recent calls is missed calls on my current configuration.
    Not a long time ago the default was all calls.
    I didn't change it and don't know how.
    How can i change it back? I really don't see the advantage of the current default, most of the users navigate to all calls every time.
    I use iphone 4 and ios 5.1.1
    Thanks.

    Try a reset: Simultaneously hold down the Home and On buttons until the device shuts down. Ignore the off slider if it appears. Once shut down is complete, if it doesn't restart on it own, turn the device back on using the On button. In some cases it also helps to double click the Home button and close all apps from the tray before doing the reset.
    However, I am on 6.1.4, so perhaps there is a diference in the iOS version. It is also a matter of one tap on the screen, so seriously, is it that big a deal?

  • ICal default view

    How can I change default view back to week view in iCal, as it was before update (as it displays when searching)?

    In case anyone else is looking for a solution to this, I'm come up with a temporary hack. It is a shell script that clears out the most recent calendar view, which results in the Calendar app opening to the current day/month. I've setup a crontab job to run the script every 10 minutes. It's not a perfect fix, but it does the job just fine.
    The script/terminal command:
    /usr/bin/defaults delete com.apple.iCal "CalFirstVisibleDate"
    To install a crontab job which runs the script periodically (every ten minutes in this case), insert the following line into your crontab config (run crontab -e from terminal):
    */10 * * * * /usr/bin/iCalDateReset.sh
    This assumes that you have installed the script as /usr/bin/iCalDateReset.sh

  • How can I change iTunes 11 default view?

    I really DO NOT LIKE th new iTunes, but I guess I'm stuck with it since I was dumb enough to download it.  At least I hope I can change the default view from Albums (totally useless to me) to Songs so I don't have to go through manually changing it each time I open iTunes.  I know it can be done in Windows, but how do I do it in Mac?  BTW, I'm still using Snow Leopard.  Thanks.
    Sass

    First there are no workbooks. All our queries are presented on the portal.
    I made the change in the query itself but the default of 'hierarchy nodes'  remained. It can be changed to 'single values' at runtime via the context menu, but it's annoying our users to constantly do so.
    Second, it makes perfect sense to want to see single values for a characteristic by default and a hierachy optionally. These are customers or sales agents - normally we just want their name- optionally we want to see their organizational structure.This worked fine in 3.x.

    Can you change the DEFAULT VIEW of a published iCal to MONTH VIEW? I use this for a vacation rental and people never ever ever ever need to see anything but the MONTH VIEW. I hate having to tell them to click MONTH view at the top of the page. Is there a way to force it to always appear in MONTH? Thanks!

    Welcome to Apple Discussions.
    Unfortunately no, but if they are repeat viewers why not tell them to change their view to "Monthly" using the "Preferences" button on that page?

  • Is there a way to make List View in the Calendar your default view in iOS7?

    I want to be able to have the List View be my default view on my calendar but I can't find a way to do this.  Is there something I am missing?

    No, it's not possible. However, there are lots of apps available in App Store that will let you do that. Week Call, Fantatical, Cal, are juste a couple.
    Best of luck.

  • How to configure and set a default view for contents of a data set

    Here is my scenario:
    I have a document library where each item is a "Plan".  "Plan" is of a custom content type that inherits from a Document Set content type but has some additional attributes such as Plan Type.  Inside each Plan, each item is
    a Plan Document which is of custom content type Plan Document which inherits from Document content type but has some additional attributes e.g. Document Status.
    So the hierarchy is:
    All Plans (document library)
         Plan 1  (custom content type that inherits from Document Set but also has a "Plan Type" attribute)
                 Plan Document   (custom content type that inherits from Document but also has a "Document Status" attribute
    When I click on the document library, I want to see all the folders (e.g. Plan 1) where one of the columns will be "Plan Type"
    When I click on an individual Plan (e.g. Plan 1) I want to see the contents of that custom document set.  At this point, since this page shows contents of one document set, I want to see the column "Document Status" but NOT Plan Type since
    Plan Type applies to the document set as a whole, not to an individual item in that document set.
    However, I don't think I have it set up correctly because right now the "Plan Type" column is visible both on the list of all document sets AND on the page that shows the contents of one document set.
    I've found a discussion on this topic here:
    http://sharepoint.stackexchange.com/questions/61565/how-can-i-set-a-custom-default-view-for-a-document-set
    where one person said "When you click on a Document Set content type in library settings, one of the options is "Document Set settings". The last option in this dialogue allows you to select a defined view on the library that will be used
    to show the contents of that Document Set."  I don't see that view selection.  The last item on the document set settings page is "Update List and Site Content Types".  The field before that is for customizing the Welcome page. 
    However, I don't want to customize the Welcome Page as a whole, I just want to customize the columns that are displayed on the list of content of this document set.
    thanks

    I finally found the answer:
    At the document library level, create a new view to use when displaying the files in the document set
    Go to the document library settings
    Select your custom content type (in my case it was "Plan")
    In the next screen select Document Set settings
    Select your newly created view at the Welcome Page View section
    Press Ok
    Now the default All Documents view will be shown when displaying all the document sets and the newly created view will be displayed when viewing one document set with the files within.
