UWL Task Launching Problem

I have a step in my workflow which call a function module with a call screen as shown below
CALL SCREEN '9000'.
wfaction = wa_reason-wfaction.
reasontx = wa_reason-reasontx.
textreq = wa_reason-textreq.
In the inbox, I can doubleclick on the work item and launch the screen. This does not work in the UWL.. I am under a time crunch.
Any pointers will be greatly appreciated.
The XML file entry for this task in the UWL is as follows
<ItemType name="uwl.task.webflow.TS90100140" connector="WebFlowConnector" defaultView="DefaultView" defaultAction="launchWSHanlder" executionMode="pessimistic">
      <ItemTypeCriteria externalType="TS90100140" connector="WebFlowConnector"/>
      <Actions>
        <Action name="launchWSHanlder" groupAction="" handler="SAPTransactionLauncher">
          <Properties>
            <Property name="GuiType" value="WinGui"/>
            <Property name="display_order_priority" value="5"/>
          </Properties>
          <Descriptions default=""/>
        </Action>
      </Actions>
    </ItemType>
Thanks a lot in advance

Hi Vreddy,
Did you make any recent changes? Did it ever work before?
What version are you on?
Did you check to see if there are any errors on the connector?
Did you restart the UWL service?
Please go through the UWL Troubleshooting wiki page (below) which discusses this issue:

Thanks and regards,

Hi All,
In such cases, please try to check as below :
1) Create Leave request work item from Employee and check the same under the UWL Tracking tab of employee.
2) Log-in to swi5 transaction of the respective back end system and give "US" -> manager's UserID -> Choose Tasks to be completed from the drop down -> Remove any date if mentioned -> Execute.
3) Here if you can see the Leave request created, but not on the portal, it reflects some portal issue like sync.
4) If no leave request work item is seen here, then there is a problem in the employee manager mapping or the workflow setup.
5) In such cases, you can try to check the Swi1 and check the log of that workflow to understand the current status of the Leave request.
Revert if further help is needed with more info.
Reward points if found useful.

Error when launching GP UWL tasks from consumer portal

In our federated portal network we have configured the universal worklist in the consumer portal to display guided procedure tasks from a producer portal - both portals are NW 7.0 SP14.
All GP tasks from the producer portal are displayed in the consumer portal without issue.
When we attempt to launch one of the GP tasks in the consumer portal we recieve the following error - Could not retrieve process instance: contact your system administrator.
If we launch the GP tasks in the producer portal there are no issues.
Has anyone experienced a similar situation?

I worked through this issue with SAP support.
For the ItemType with name="uwl.task.gp.XXX", where XXX is the system alias of the remote GP system.
Changed attribute from defaultAction="launchGP" to defaultAction="editItem" because the name of the Action described for this itemType is "editItem".
The action handler that is used is "UrlLauncher" (handler="UrlLauncher") but this handler works only with attribute launchInNewWindow="yes". So in all actions with attribute handler="UrlLauncher" change the attribute launchInNewWindow from "no" to launchInNewWindow="yes".
Uploaded new uwl.gp.config.xml with high priority.

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 ABAPWebdynpro Launch Error - 404 not found

I have a created a Workflow Custom Task and linked it with the ABAP Webdynpro application (no parameters) in SWFVISU.
In the Portal>System Admin>System Config, i have registered item types for all systems.
The problem is When i try to execute the work item , instead of launching the ABAP Webdynpro application, i get the error '404 Not found The Requested resource does not exist'.
This Service is activeted along with other required activations in SICF.
Any ideas about what I might be missing here?
Thanks,
Saurabh

Hi,
1. Check the UWL Config which is in High Priority, within that config check for the Task Item and see if everything is been passed.
If the first option doesn't work, here is an alternative:
2. Create a iView for the Web Dynpro ABAP application in Portal and get the PCD URL of the object created.
Take a backup of the existing config and replace the definition for the task item in discussion.
<ItemType name="uwl.task.webflow.Task Item Number.System Alias" connector="WebFlowConnector" defaultView="com.sap.pct.erp.ess.leaverequest" defaultAction="launchIView" executionMode="pessimistic">
      <ItemTypeCriteria systemId="System Alias" externalType="Task Item Number" connector="WebFlowConnector"/>
      <Actions>
        <Action name="launchIView" groupAction="no" handler="SAPAppLauncher" returnToDetailViewAllowed="yes" launchInNewWindow="yes" launchNewWindowFeatures="resizable=yes,scrollbars=yes,status=no,toolbar=no,menubar=no,location=no,directories=no">
          <Properties>
            <Property name="SAPIntegrator" value=" ROLES:// give the PCD URL which you created***"/>
            </Properties>
        </Action>
      </Actions>
    </ItemType>
And after replacing the content upload the new config to UWL in High Priority.
Hope this helps.
Cheers-
Pramod

UWL task takes up to 2 minutes to appear

Hi there,
We have a situation where the UWL task takes between 1 minute and 2 minuts to appear in the user's inbox. in our analysis we have found that the task is created immediatly in the business process but it set with an inactive status. After a period of time the task status changes to Ready and the task appears in the users UWL.
We are using NW 7.2 SP3. The task is using WD for Java UI and the "Activate this task by default when creating it" is set in the time constraints. No other time constraints have been set.

Christiaan

Hi Paul,
we have the same problem since we move from CE 7.2 SP3 to SP4.
We just created an OSS-Message last week.

ESS Leave Request in UWL not launching

Hello,
We are trying to configure ESS\MSS, and currently stuck at the step of Leave Request\UWL configuration.
u2022     We have configured UWL with the backend system (WebFlow Connector). We can register the system successfully.
u2022     In IMG, we have set the u201CProcess Request Using Workflow: u201C: 12300111
Once a user fills out a leave request, We see the following in the UWL ([SEE IMAGE|http://www11.speedyshare.com/files/21590441/download/LeaveRequest.jpg])? We do not see any option to launch WebDynpro? And why does the item text states u201CGeneral Workflow for Documentsu201D instead of u201CLeave Requestu201D?
Thanks,
Rob

Hello,
I donu2019t see any items in the Tasks tab, the way Iu2019m testing is on the u201CTracking" Tab of the person that have made the Leave Request. When I click on the item in UWL, it does not open up any Web Dynpro. I've checked the Tasks in TCode SWFVISU, and WDynpro Java is defined.

UWL Task Attachments

We have a requirement to launch custom webdynpro java app when the user selects the atttachment for the UWL task. We can modify the UWL XML file to lauch custom app for a task but for attachments I am not sure. Is there a way to configure the attachments for the UWL task to launch custom webdynpro java application? We are on NW 7.01 SP6.
Thanks for the help in advance

Hi Anu,
I am not sure that we can configure the attachments or not for your requirement.
As attachments link comes from Wrok Flow side.
But i can suggest you one work around -- you remove the default attachments button from UWL iview
and in UWL XML do the changes to add link which each will appear for each task . On this link you can
open your custom apps very easily and for justification you can say that for checking the attachments
no need to open the task details.
