UWL - list of UWL actions

My first post!!
Does anyone have a list of all UWL actions that are contained in the uwl.standard file with a corresponding description of what the action does / how it is used?
Thanks
Jon

Hi Jon,
find a list of all global uwl actions (defined in the uwl standard file) below. Unfortunately, there is no description of the action. The function of an action is defined by the corresponding action handler.
accept -> UserDecisionHandler
acknowledge -> ProviderActionHandler
addMemo -> SAPWebDynproLauncher
addToNavigation -> UIActionHandler
alertBaseAction -> dummy
cancelSuprocess -> UWLActionHandler
claimItem -> ProviderActionHandler
complete -> ProviderActionHandler
completeItem -> ProviderActionHandler
confirm -> UserDecisionHandler
connectionStatus -> UIActionHandler
decline -> ProviderActionHandler
defaultGlobalWiyard -> SAPWebDynproLauncher
delete -> ProviderActionHandler
escalate -> ProviderActionHandler
forward -> ProviderActionHandler
inProgressItem -> ProviderActionHandler
launchAlertActionDummy -> SAPWebDynproLauncher
launchSubstitutionManager -> SAPWebDynproLauncher
manageAttachments -> SAPWebDynproLauncher
markAsRead -> UWLActionHandler
newItem -> ProviderActionHandler
priorityHigh -> ProviderActionHandler
priorityLow -> ProviderActionHandler
priorityNormal -> ProviderActionHandler
priorityVeryHigh -> ProviderActionHandler
refresh -> UIActionHandler
removeAttachment -> ProviderActionHandler
removeFromNavigation -> UIActionHandler
replace -> ProviderActionHandler
submitUserDecision -> UIActionHandler
unclaimItem -> ProviderActionHandler

uploadMemo -> ProviderActionHandler
uwlTaskWizard -> SAPWebDynproLauncher
uwlUserAction -> SAPWebDynproLauncher
viewHistory -> SAPWebDynproLauncher
viewMemos -> UIActionHandler
viewSubProcess -> SAPWebDynproLauncher
Find more information about action handler in the <a href="http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/2c/05b15de3864040a9426788a12699b3/frameset.htm">SAP Library</a>.

Hide link to SAPguiDetails from completed task list in UWL

Below is the code I have in XML file to hide links to SAPGuiDetails.
<Action name="launchSAPDetails" handler="SAPMiniAppLauncher">
<Properties>
<Property name="display_order_priority" value="uwlExcludeFromPreviewDetail"/>
</Properties>
</Action>
This works fine however when user selects drodrown in UWL to show completed tasks and open the completed taks, they can still see links to SAPGUIDETAILS. Appreciate if I can get any help how I can hide the link to SAPguidetails from completed tasks list.
Thanks,
Bobby

The simplest way to hide it from all the views in UWL is to put launchSAPDetails in the "List of UWL Actions to exclude" property of the UWL iview.
If you want item specific or view specific customization, you will need to identify which item and view configuration is used and include the above XML in each of those.
Thanks,

UWL list showing the workitems wrongly.

Hi ,
In the UWL list the sometimes the workitem is displayed with wrong information.
If I have 4 work items which are expected to be displayed in the UWL list, Instead the UWL shows three work items.
The work item combines the decription of the other work item and shows the wrong information.
E.g. I have three columns in the UWL list Item description ( this is the description of work item), name and status.
The work item
       Item Description                Name                         Status
1.   Test results of 1                ABCD                        Ready for acceptance
2.   Test result of 2                 MNGK                       Approved
The UWL instead of above results, shows the one record like below
1.    Test results of 1              MNGK                Ready for acceptance.
Has anyone faced this problem before? any pointers for this?
Thanks in adance.

It possible to use bpm uwl or mdm uwl iview instead of standatd uwl?

it possible to use bpm uwl or mdm uwl iview instead of standatd uwl?

Hi thanks for reply.
issue not solve yet...
i just joined organization, it has standard UWL. And in last oragnization i seen advance UWL which showing details of item, add note, attachment while approve n reject.
I am developer. n some where i seen advance UWL and BPM n MDM iview showing advance falicity of approve n reject.
Also seen in portal content about MDM UWL iView, BPM UWL iView.....
might be that was customized standard UWL iView....
n i think there are some xml file in mdm n bpm so we can show item in UWL list or to do customize UWL with .xml.
so my thing is there are any cotmization in MDM BPM .xml or standard so we can use that iview or xml instead of UWL standard UWL or .xml

The list of workflow actions on the server references an assembly that does not exist

Hi,
This issue has been discussed many times in this forum , the reason why I am posting is I tried the resolution steps but I dont see any luck.
I am getting the below message from the SharePoint designer 2007 when I am trying to modify a workflow
"This list of workflow actions on the server references an assembly that does not exist. Some actions will not be available. The assembly strong name is Microsoft.SharePoint.WorkflowActions, Version=12.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=71e9bce111e9429c.
Contact your server administrator for more information."
#1 : One of the post says "Normally you would see that error because someone has extended the Workflow actions available in SPD with a custom action developed in Visual Studio. These custom actions are loaded when your workstation reads the WSS.ACTIONS
file on the server. The file is located in the 12 hive under Template\1033\workflow. Your WSS.Actions file contains a reference to a custom action .dll which is not available on the server."
I opened the WSS.Actions file in notepad, I dont see any line with *.dll in it. Am I missing something?
#2: Another post says "The solution I discovered was that the server running my SharePoint Services was not up to .NET 3.0. As soon as I updated to .NET 3.0 everything worked.I had made sure the machine running SharePoint Designer was updated, but
had missed the SHarePoint Services server."
The server is already updated to .Net 3.0.
#3: I went to the %System Drive%\Documents and Settings\Local Settings\ApplicationData\Microsoft\SharePointDesigner.
Deleted the ProxyAssemblyCache folder but no luck.
Just checking if any one was able to resolve this issue by following any of the solution other than the above mentioned ones.
Thanks,
Cutloo

    I have the similar issue with my custom work flow. I have searched the whole day for the solution but no success, then at last a simple track works for me. Please try this if any one faces such issue.
Basically the assembly that we have define in the ACTIONS file dose not exists on the server, because of two reasons, either we have given the wrong assembly name (in our case the namespace name inside our solution) or the PublicKeyToken may differ from the
original assembly, that are deployed in GAC.
    So cross check both of these, in my case the assembly name was fine,
<Action
    Name="Move Item to Another List and Send Email"
    ClassName="MyAssemblyName.Classname"
    Assembly="MyAssemblyName,Version=1.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=4053d1fde8a1c781"
    AppliesTo="all"
    Category="Email actions">
But the problem was in the 'PublicKeyToken', so i double click on the feature inside my solution,then in the bottom i have clicked on the manifest tab to check the entries.
<Feature xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/sharepoint/" Title="MyAssemblyName Feature1" Id="f7f1bda0-5f65-40f1-a705-f6f15a41da3a" ReceiverAssembly="MyAssemblyName, Version=1.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=0c32dbb769ed64b5"
ReceiverClass="MyAssemblyName.Features.Feature1.Feature1EventReceiver" Scope="WebApplication"></Feature>
Here i got the actual PublicKeyToken for my assembly (0c32dbb769ed64b5), i have replaced this number inside ACTIONS file, deploy the soultion, reset IIS.
It works for me,

How to remove list of available actions in cs5

I installed actions in 2 places and now i have duplicates in the available action list (click the arrow to the right of the action tab to see the menu for add, remove, options etc and a list of all available actions and sets).
I removed the actions from
C:\Users\Hal\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CS5\Presets\Actions
and from
C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CS5 (64 Bit)\Presets\Actions
and yet i still have the huge list of available actions in duplicate.
How do I eliminate these?
Thanks
Hal

Ah, my mistake. I didn't understand you fully.
I believe the actions that show up in that menu are in one of these folders:
Photoshop 64 bit:
C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CS5 (64 Bit)\Presets\Actions
Photoshop 32 bit on a 64 bit system:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CS5\Presets\Actions
Photoshop on a 32 bit system:
C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Photoshop CS5\Presets\Actions
You would need to move/remove the .atn files from the above folder(s) to get them to stop appearing in that list.

How to reproduce PA40 - List of Personnel Actions

Greetings experts.
I need to reproduce the list of Personnel Actions EXACTLY as they are displayed on the PA40 screen (same order, same items). I can see that these values are coming from table T529T but not all of them are showing and I'm not sure how the program is ordering them in the display.
I'm relatively new to SAP but I did try digging around in program SAPMP50A but for me it was trying to find a needle in a haystack.
Can anyone provide me with some advice on how to reproduce this, please?
Thanks!

Let me ask this another way.
I recorded a PA40 session to create a participant. The event selected on the client I recorded it on is 24 (24th item from the top of the "Personnel Actions" displayed). However, on the client the user is testing it's in a different position.
I'm on a very tight deadline and I don't have time to go back and re-work my code so I need to be able to somehow read the index (position) of the event I'm looking for so I can pass it to the BDC commands:
PERFORM bdc_field USING 'BDC_CURSOR' 'T529T-MNTXT(24)'.
PERFORM bdc_field USING 'BDC_OKCODE' '=PICK'.
If I could only access the list at runtime and somehow "query" it by doing a READ, etc., I could find the correct action and get it's position and replace the hard-coded "24" (from the SHDB recording) with the actual index.
Any thoughts?

Calling different lists in command action in j2me

I have created a midlet with multiple lists and after user select one list element he will be directed to another list.I want to call these lists in command actions using List.SELECT_COMMAND and list_one.getselectedIndex( ).It works for only first list and "done" is displayed on listScreen1 when the first index of listScreen1 is selected . As well as again "done " is displayed when the first index of ListScreen2 is selected.How Should i over come from here?I have used switch case also for this instead of If condition and same problem exists.Please help me.Thanx a lot.
if (c==List.SELECT_COMMAND )
if(listScreen1.getSelectedIndex()==0)
Display.getDisplay(parent).setCurrent(ListScreen2);
ListScreen2.addCommand(BACK);
ListScreen2.addCommand(OK);
ListScreen2.setCommandListener(this);
if(listScreen1.getSelectedIndex()==1)
Display.getDisplay(parent).setCurrent(ListScreen3);
ListScreen3.addCommand(BACK);
ListScreen3.addCommand(OK);
ListScreen3.setCommandListener(this);
if(listScreen1.getSelectedIndex()==2)
Display.getDisplay(parent).setCurrent(ListScreen4);
ListScreen4.addCommand(BACK);
ListScreen4.addCommand(OK);
ListScreen4.setCommandListener(this);
else
System.err.println("Unexpected choice...");
return;
if (c==List.SELECT_COMMAND )
if(ListScreen2.getSelectedIndex()==0)
ListScreen2.append("done", null);
}

Hi,
there are more problems. I'd say that you will see many times displayed the "Unexpected choice..." message. But the main problem is you are testing all screens at the same time despite any application/screen status. You don't know where you are (on what screen) and you test multiple screens. So the done is always added to the screen 2 (because the condition is always true). Only if current screen is no.2 you just see added content.
So:
- add some more precise application screen/state logic
- manage the screens - you have existing instances of the screens but you multiple times add content and commands
- make corrent conditions
- use CODE tag during editing to enter the code, otherwise it's very bad readable.

Hi Arun,
Assign a Potential owner to the task and check for the following roles to proceed with BPM Process.
pcd:portal_content/com.sap.pct/every_user/com.sap.bpem/com.sap.bpem.roles/com.sap.bpem.Enduser,
To Trigger Your Process:SAP_BPM_TRIGGER_EVENT.
While Assign Potential Owners,
Pool is the first Priority,
Lane is Second Prioriy,
Activity is Last Priority.
Eg: If u Assign a one Potential owner for Pool and another owner for Lane. It will take Pool owner as the major one.

Can we create an Ad Hoc workflow from a GP task listed in UWL?

Dear All,
Can we create an Ad Hoc Work flow from tasks which are generated using Guided procedures? If UWL does not provide this information can we some how implement the concept of Ad Hoc work flow from each step? The advantage is that when a person gets a task in his plate, he can create an Ad Hoc Workflow to take care of the request within their respective department for reviews and sub reviews.
Thank You,
Mansoor.

Hi Mansoor,
In sub task, even itu2019s linked with main task you donu2019t have a link or any UI to interact with main process. For this reason, itu2019s not possible.
There are standard process roles like Overseer or Owner and custom roles, that is who will interact with each action/block. Assuming you have a manager and a team that will interact with a step in your process, you may define the manager as Overseer and the team group as processor of this step. In this case, you donu2019t have a specific forward feature, but you will treat that defining a group as processor and everyone inside this group may complete the task. The manager, as overseer, can track the process without need "hands on" with that.

Pedro Nunes

Refresh UWL every time a action is done

Hello Portals specialists,
I've a small issue about UWL.
I've configured refresh time to 1 minute in the personalization. But I want to have a automatic refresh, when I log in and when I manage a task.
In fact, each time a action is done (logging, navigation, completing a task, ...) the UWL must be refresh...
I've try to change the delta pull time, the refresh parameter in the XML definition of the UWL. Nothing works.
Thanks for your help.
Regards.
Olivier.

Hi Oliver,
I had a smiliar requirement, where the work items has to be refreshed every time i log into Portal. Even though there was refresh button the client wanted to refresh the work items evry time he logs in.
Please check the following link
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw2004s/helpdata/en/eb/101fa0a53244deb955f6f91929e400/frameset.htm
Else on R/3 side you have to maintain Schedulers.
Hope it helps.

UWL list refresh error

I have experienced that UWL does not show the most updated task list. User need to force browser refresh to refresh the task list.
Looks like a bug in UWL. It also show informative message on top "The list of items shown here could be outdated. Waiting for update". But it doesn't update the task list.
Is it a UWL configuration issue or UWL bug?
Anybody had similar experience.
Abhay

Hi Abhay,
not a bug, just another feature.. What the UWL does is that it by default fetches the work items at defined intervals from the backend systems.
What you can do is to shorten the interval (see UWL iView parameters) or educate the users to hit Refresh every once in a while.
In NW2004s there's also a new delta pull mechanism (http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw2004s/helpdata/en/eb/101fa0a53244deb955f6f91929e400/frameset.htm) for the UWL, which should make the automatic update faster.
Hope this helps,
Mikko

Bespoke UWL XML Configurations - conditional actions

Hi,
We're currenly running a PoC system, I've set up a custom XML configuration for a task within the UWL and everything working as expected....
I know you can hide and add actions per task by either using the iView property settings or updating the XML itself, but is there anyway you can display or hide an action based solely on a value within that workitem?
So you'll have the UWL displayed with 2 types of work items, one will show one set of buttons in the detail area, but when you click on the other WI..., (same task), but with a different value within a column field, you display another set of buttons/actions?
The only way I can think of doing anything like this would be create an additional task and share the same view..., not sure if that would work.

Solved .
I was writing wrong
<DisplayAttribute name="Reject" type="radiobutton" width="" sortable="no" format="default" actionRef="Rejected" referenceBundle="Rejected" hAlign="CENTER" vAlign="BASELINE" maxTextWidth="0" headerVisible="yes"/>
The actionRef and referenceBundle above should be same as defined in ItemType.

Creating UWL task without any action

Dear All
First of all Execuse me for the posting the uncorrect scenerio in last thread.
This is regarding the issue I am facing, the employee is going to view the Request form, but if he will not do any action ( will not click any button ) the UWL task is going to create in his (OWN) UWL.

Hi,
If the first view is the first callable object in your GP process then a task will get created whenever the user opens the view (i.e. a new process instance gets started). To overcome this issue I can think of three options :
1) you can have a cancel button in the view. On Action of the cancel button you can set a resultstate based on which you can call a Terminate process callable object and terminate the process instance.
2) on wdDoExit() method you can check if any button has been clicked (set a flag on valid user actions). If no user action has been done set the resultstate and cancel the process as above.
3) Don't add the first view as a callable object in GP. Instead make it a stand-alone Web Dynpro project and on button click(Submit) of that view start the GP process by passing the relevant parameters.
Thanks,
Dipankar

Hi,
Have a look at the ISystem interface in the Javadocs: http://help.sap.com/javadocs/NW04S/current/ep/com/sap/portal/pcm/system/ISystem.html
I appears that if you could get an instance of the system object then you could use the IAttributeSet interface methods:
"ISystem inherits the interface com.sap.portal.pcm.admin.IAttributeSet, which enables manipulation of its attributes. "
Hope this helps,
