UWL: status of collaboration tasks

Hello SDN folks,
I'm currently struggeling with the following question:
Is it possible to add new custom status-values (already availables are inprogress, ceompleted etc.) for UWL collaboration tasks? I want to display the custom status-value then as an action in the context menu for the affected itemTypes.
If yes, yould you shortly give any hint where to start?
Thanks for your efforts,
Frank

Hi Dwayne,
According to your description, my understanding is that you want to add a column into the document library to show the Task Status.
Assuming you create a new column called “Status” in the document library(called “doc_approval”) used as showing Task Status, then you need to create a new workflow on your tasks list.
You can design this workflow as the following screenshot, and set this workflow start automatically when an item is changed.
For the first red area, the variable:ID is an Integer.
For the IF condition, you need to set it like the below:

  • UWL Collaboration Task with Numeration

    Hello
    Is it posible to customize Collaboration Tasks with xml-File so that the table displays an additional field (e.g. like tasknumber) for each new task entry?
    If this requirement is only solvable by custom development, where can i find examples or tutorials about.
    Regards Michael

    Hi,
    One way is to develop a java webdynpro application and launch it from your UWL. You can create the application which calls RFCs to retrieve data from R/3 and displays it in the application. You can also create the two buttons and assign appropriate actions for those buttons.
    To launch the webdynpro application from UWL you need to configure the XML file. This is usually done with the help of SWFVISU transaction. But in your system (since it is of older version) this transaction might not exist. Hence you need to create the XML file manually and upload it.
    Refer the following blog and some other blogs by Ginger Gatling for more idea.

  • Collaboration Task separated from KM task

    Hello All,
    In Collaboration  >  My Task, both  KM as well as Collaboration tasks are coming like Feedback, Approval etc..
    1) How can i segregate Collaboration Task from the KM Task in Collaboration Content?
    Collaboration Task - Using uwl.collaboration
    Home Task - Using uwl.standard
    2) Both are same or different?
    Regards,
    Mythili

    Hi
    I can answer your second question
    Home - Work - Overview -- uwl.standard - part of end user role
    this leads to UWL Standard iview with full list of functions.
    Collaboration Task - uwl.collaboration  - Part of collaboration Role -
    This is pre-configured to list collaboration task Only.
    I hope i gave u some info to u

  • Link to attachment not working in Collaboration Task

    Hi All,
    We found an issue when we are attaching documents to a Collaboration
    Task which is created from a Collaboration Room:
    When we link documents that have been already stored in KM everything
    works fine. However when we use the direct upload at Task generation
    the links are not always accessible.
    We found out that the URLs which are generated behind the links differ
    in one slash.
    We are on EP 7 SP 14.
    Thanks & Regards,
    TC

    Have you tried %20%20 in the code rather than spaces?
    Just a guess.
    See if that works in RoboHelp's viewer.

  • Email Notifications for Collaboration Tasks are Not going to Lotus Notes

    Hello Everyone,
    Email Notifications for the Tasks in Collaboration are not going to Lotus Notes. We are working on EP 7.0 SP14 with external ITS and backend r/3 4.7.
    I performed all the configuration activities that are suggested in the below wiki:
    https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/wiki?path=/pages/viewpage.action&pageId=61244035
    It was worked fine once for me when i perfomed the activities mentioned in the below thread:https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/thread?threadID=147316
    But after restarting our Portal Server the Email Notifications for Collaboration Tasks are not coming.
    Could any one please suggest that we need to do any other configurations.Thank you.

  • UWL status shows as pending thoguh the form is approved .

    UWL status shows as pending thoguh the form is approved .
    How is can happen .
    How do i know which component in webdynpro it is calling for the status .
    Please advice me to analysis the situation from my side also .

    Hi Raj,
          Well from my past experience I would say it was just a coincidence when approval and release happened in close vicinity of time. Check the time of the event occurrence in the log and also the time of approval. If they are very close then it might be the case that as soon as the approval happened someone released the PO directly from the transaction. Who did ? check the log for that. Event creator.
          Now the thing is are you able to replicate this error again? or it was just one isolated incident.
    Hope this helps!

  • Bapi to set user status of a task

    Hi,
    I am looking for a bapi or method to set the user status of a task.
    We have created a status profile for user status and need to set the user status of the task in the dpr_attributes badi based on some conditions.
    I tried bapi BAPI_BUS2175_SET_STATUS but it either says status profile not found or if i assign the status profile to the task it says status profile already active but never changes the user status.
    I checked method SET_DATA_EXT of class CL_DPR_TASK_O but it does not have user status field for modifying whereas GET_DATA_EXT method has the user status but it wouldn't help to change the user status.
    If anyone has any idea on this it will be extremely helpful.
    Regards,
    Simmi

    Hello!
    Please try the following code, it works for us (let's say the status profile is already active, otherwise you have to add the corresponding export parameter):
    DATA:  BUS           TYPE BAPI_TS_BUSINESS_TRANSACTION,
                RETURN    TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF BAPIRET2,
                  BUS-BUSINESS_TRANSACTION = 'SET_USER_STATUS'.
                  BUS-USER_STATUS = your_user_status.
                  CALL FUNCTION 'BAPI_BUS2175_SET_STATUS'
                    EXPORTING
                      TASK_GUID               = task_guid
                      IS_BUSINESS_TRANSACTION = BUS
                    TABLES
                      RETURN                  = RETURN.
    If still not working, you can have a look to the following SAP Note: 954975

  • Setup the UWL to open the tasks in the right application defined in SWFVISU

    Hello!
    I'm trying to set up the UWL to open the tasks defined in transaction SWFVISO, and I'm kind of stuck, so I hope you can help me.
    When I open an item, I get the the following error:
    Business Server Page (BSP) Error
    What happened?
    Call of BSP page terminated due to error.
    Note
    Following error text processed in system:
    BSP exception: Access to URL /scripts/wgate/webgui/! is forbidden.
    Error Type:
    Your SAP Business Server Pages Team
    Whats really bothering me, is that the application I want to execute the Work Item at, is Web Dynpro for Java?
    When the UWL connector is defined, you define ITS and/or WAS to launch back-end task handlers. The decision of which is selected, is defined in SWFVISU, where you select Web Dynpro JAVA - in my case. (please do correct me if i'm wrong)
    Then I dont understand why it tries to use ITS?
    Regards
    Lasse

    Part of the issue was that the XML was not generated automatically - the solution for this was due to a change in SP18.
    See this post for the solution: SWFVISU task not appearing in any of the UWL Config files

  • Service cannot able to open in UWL from the ESS tasks

    Hi Team,
    I'm facing a  issue like

    we got the following error.

    Service cannot be reached in UWL from the ESS tasks
    but I'm not able to find out the solution.
    Any help will be appriciated.
    Regards,
    Mahee.

    i said to you that it shouldnt point to ABAP system!
    read my solution again
    Please ensure system configuration-
    >system landscape->system(my system)->Web Application server settings
    please check is it pointing to ABAP Server, If yes then change to Java
    server then your Application will work.
    The two types want different WAS properties. Now if you set
    up the WAS so that the BSP works well. There is a possibility that you
    can modify the WAS settings when you use WebDynpro launcher. You have
    three possibilities to change this:
    1. In the UWL connector settings modify the "Web Dynpro Launch System"
    property to SAP_LocalSystem. This case the webdynpro uses the URL and
    the port of the portal.>> I think this can suit you.
    2. In the System Landscape create a new system with the same properties
    as the R3_TEST1 but the WAS properties are different. After that you use
    the name of the new system as "Web Dynpro Launch System" in the UWL
    connector settings. This solution should be used if the SAP_LocalSystem
    is different than the necessary WAS settings.
    3. You can modify this setting in the configuration also under the
    ItemType. You should add the system property and the UWL uses it instead
    of the default one.
    Here is the help documentation:

  • Automatic status "Completed" on tasks where phase has been completed

    Hi experts,
    I am wondering if there is any way (apart from developing a custom workflow) of setting all tasks below a phase as completed when the phase is completed.
    Thanks in advance.
    Kind regards,
    Neil

    Hi Neil,
    Implement the BAdI DPR_EVENTS and use Phase Completed as filter value.
    In this implementation, get all the tasks that belong to that phase and set the status of these tasks to completed.
    Commit the changes.

  • UWL   status  'In Progress'

    We are using modified Ws12300111 workflow with second level approval . After 10 days if no action is taken on leave request , its status becomes rejected .
                      But in UWL  it shows  status 'In Progress' , though it should show ' completed '. Also  if I see Document database in tracking of employee , workflow status is ' STARTED ' inspite of 'completed '. If I see in 'View History ' , it shows ' WF-BATCH ' to be completed .
               I want workflow status and  UWL status to be completed .
                           how is it possible ?

    Hi Sahiba!
    Can you please elaborate how have you designed the workflow and 2nd level approval step so that it expires after 10 days?
    A little more information would help us in getting closer to the solution of ur problem.
