UWL xml config - coll task status completed when progress = 100%?

The progress bar shown in the uwlCollaboration iview enables users to click and choose progress = 25,50,75 or 100% for each task. The task's status changes automatically to 'In progress' if 25,50 or 75% is chosen. For 100% I would expect status to change to 'Completed'. This doesn't happen. Status is set to 'Confirmed' even if no final verification step is set for the task. When first set to confirmed the task's status is unchangable and cannot be set to completed.
I have checked the uwl.collaboration xml config file. The action 'redirectAction5' handles the 100% step, but I cannot find how and where to set how this should correspond to changing progress to completed.
<Action name="redirectAction5" groupAction="no" handler="UIActionHandler" referenceBundle="menu_progress100" returnToDetailViewAllowed="yes" launchInNewWindow="no">
      <Properties>
        <Property name="newValue" value="100"/>
        <Property name="actionName" value="progress"/>
        <Property name="display_order_priority" value="uwlExcludeFromPreviewDetail"/>
      </Properties>
    </Action>
Thanks for any help

Hi Henning,
My guess is that this is related to the fact that tasks is by default set to "Task Requires Final Approval", you can check this by clicking 'show options' when starting a task.
When this option is set, the users that starts the task needs to approve it before the task is complete.
Could this be of help?
You next question might be how to change this default setting Sorry I do not know, anybody else?

Urgent: UWL XML Config file

Hi all!
I copied the business object EXTSRV to ZEXTSRV and created a new method zprocess that is mainly a copy of the Process method of the EXTSRV BO just that the creation part of the url is diffirent. I kept the call_browser function.
Then, I assigned this method to a task in the workflow this task is copy of the standard task TS50000075. I added the itemtype to the UWL XML config file and uploaded it to the system successfuly then i cleared the cash.
When i double click on the item in the UWL it partially works. I see the text written in the task but it is supposed to pop up a window. This window doesn't appear.
Can anyone help with that?
Thank you in advance,
Hajar

Hi
Just check this out Please do not forget to give points
User Roles     Restricts who can get work items via the user role. For example, you can assign a portal role here, such as buyer. Only users with the role buyer will see items from the provider system in UWL.You can have multiple user roles separated by semi-colon. By specifying user roles for the portal users, it can be restricted as to who gets the work items in UWL. For example, you can assign a portal role to a user, such as buyer. Only users with the role buyer will see items from a system, for example, B7QCLNT000 in UWL.
Pull Channel Delta Refresh Period (in Seconds)     Delta Pull mechanism of UWL enables new items to be fetched from the back end SAP systems every minute by default every 60 seconds, and every 30 seconds for alerts. However, this can be configured. The user does not need to use the refresh function to update the inbox. Once items are retrieved, timestamps are updated for the users whose items are successfully retrieved. These retrieved items are updated in the UWL cache. Setup necessary from Business Workflow to enable Delta Pull MechanismSome configuration settings are required if you use the UWL and the Extended Notifications for SAP Business Workflow. Define the following two batch jobs:...●      Background job (for example UWL_DELTA_PULL_1), consisting of a single step of ABAP report RSWNUWLSEL in FULL mode, using a report variant.Run the job once a day.1.     ●      A background job (for example UWL_DELTA_PULL_2), consisting of a single step of ABAP report RSWNUWLSEL in DELTA mode (default mode is delta, so report variant is optional).Run the job every one to three minutes (depending on the performance of the back end SAP system).Setup necessary from UWL to enable Delta Pull Mechanism The UWL service user in portal, with user id uwl_service, has to be granted access to the corresponding back end systems. This is a predefined service user provided by UWL. When the back end system is configured in the UWL administration page, an automated process is triggered to create a corresponding UWL service user in the back end system.Check role assignments and profiles status of this automated generated UWL service user and perform user comparison if necessary.●      If SAPLogon ticket is used (without using user mapping), you first create the system entry. A message about uwl_service user appears. Then in the back-end system give the uwl_service user an initial password. Now edit the system entry.●      If user mapping is used, you can first configure the back end system in the UWL administration page. Then access the respective back end system to initialize the password for the user uwl_service. Then, do user mapping in the portal as usual for service user uwl_service.In case uwl_service fails to be created in the back end and does not exist, you can manually create a back end user with the id uwl_service and assign the role SAP_BC_UWL_SERVICE and the rights as other end users.ORMap uwl_service to an existing back end user. Make sure that there is no multiple user mapping (there must not be two portal users mapped to the same back end user). This back end user must have the role SAP_BC_UWL_SERVICE.
Snapshot Refresh Period (in minutes)     All items at the current time are fetched from the backend (for example from the SAP Business Workflow). The cache is synchronized thereafter. New / modified / deleted / updated items are fetched every session (every log on) if you leave the field value empty or enter a negative number.To specify a particular time frame for which the refresh occurs, enter the number of minutes
The above registration procedure is usually sufficient to use a UWL iView. Item type retrieval and registration requires a connection to the systems and may take a couple of minutes.
For each system, they are generated as the configuration named uwl.webflow.<system_alias> or uwl.alert.<system_alias>.
In Manager Self-Service (MSS), the Universal Worklist groups together in Workset: Work
Overview the various workflow tasks and alerts that are relevant for a manager.
The standard MSS delivery includes the configuration file com.sap.pct.erp.mss.001.xml for the universal worklist.
1. In the portal, choose System Administration →System Configuration →Universal
Worklist and Workflow →Universal Worklist →UWL Systems Configuration.
2. Create the following system connections:
If you have already registered a suitable connector to the system connected to
the system alias, the existing connector is sufficient and you do not have to
register an additional one.
○ System alias: SAP_ECC_Financials
Connection types:
■ WebFlowConnector
■ AlertConnector
○ System alias: SAP_ECC_HumanResources
Connection type WebFlowConnector
○ System alias: SAP_SRM
Connection type WebFlowConnector
Leave the Web Dynpro Launch System field blank for all system connections.

CProject Task Status Completion overriding date fields

When a task status is changed to either 'In Process' or 'Completed', date fields, both Plan and Actual are overridden with system date (Today's date) SAP note describes this as 'designed' but seems misleading to customers who expect to compare baseline date to actual date. Any suggestion on alternative solution? BADI?

Hi Dobin,
At the moment the function works as designed. But it is correct that the actual date is set to sy-datum, if you complete the task.
The logic about the plan date, hmm, can be discussed.
A BADI doesn't exists, but a small modification can help.
Please send the OSS mesaage back to SAP

Björn
PS: I found you message, we will keep you up to date

UWL - I want to add the column "item type" in the UWL XML config file

Hi,
when personalizing a view in the default UWL iView, a user can add the column "Item Type", which shows the icon of the corresponding item.
I want to add this column to a default view configuration in the XML file, so that all users have this column available by default. I guess the right attribute to do so would be the "columnOrder" attribute of a view. I tried to add the value itemType and objectType, but none of this worked, the column did not appear.
From help.sap.com at
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/en/39/a1bb5c4c0d4ab4a417e87ef35f1efa/frameset.htm
I found some attributes and I tried statusIcon, externalId and externalType. statusIcon does not show the item type icons and the other two don't work at all. The table shows that they have the attribute "Visible to user = NO".
Does anybody know the correct value which I have to add to the columnOrder attribute or how I have to configure the XML file?
Thanks a lot for any help,
Fabian

I found it myself, it's the attribute "itemTypeIcon" which has to be added to the columnOrder attribute.

How to set a user status (complete) when ever system status is set complete

Experts,
We have configured status profile and few user status (say open, pre-release, complete) and assigned the status profile to the item category(zxxx).
The problem we have is if we have a service order that is created with the item (item category zxxx) -- Say the header status is open and the item status is pre-release. Now end user comes and sets the header status to completed - then the item status is still set pre-release. It is not changing to complete as expected.
Yes, the Item system status is set to completed but not the user status. How do I configure to set a complete user status when the header and item system status are set to completed.
Thank you
Edited by: ram on May 4, 2010 8:51 PM

I am not sure if this can be "reverse engineered" in Status profile.
But here is some hint. You can use the BAdI CRM_ORDER_STATUS mehtod AFTER_CHANGE and actually break when the Header status is changed, and set the item status as desired.

Tasks get completed but workflow Status shows 'Error Occured' and not 'COmpleted' in Sequential Workflow Visual Studio 2010

I have a custom approval sequential
private void completeSPTask_MethodInvoking(object sender, EventArgs e)
SPListItem task = workflowProperties.Web.Lists["Workflow Tasks"].GetItemById(WfApproveTaskItemId);
task[SPBuiltInFieldId.WorkflowVersion] = 1;
task["Status"] = "Completed";
task.SystemUpdate(false);
if (task["Status"].ToString() == "Completed")
Hashtable HTdata = new Hashtable();
// HTdata["Status"] = "Completed";
// HTdata[SPBuiltInFieldId.Completed] = "TRUE";
HTdata[SPBuiltInFieldId.PercentComplete] = 1;
HTdata["FormData"] = SPWorkflowStatus.Completed;
// HTdata[SPBuiltInFieldId.TaskStatus] = SPResource.GetString(new CultureInfo((int)task.Web.Language, false),"WorkflowTaskStatusComplete", new object[0]);
SPWorkflowTask.AlterTask((task as SPListItem), HTdata, true);
task.Web.Update();
workflow which works properly, the task status gets completed
When the tasks are 'In Progress' the workflow status also remains "In Progress" but when the task is completed , it shows error Occurred. The following is my code in CompleteTask method.

I got it working by removing the complete task method and by updating the task in the ontaskchanged event , In that case both the task as well as the workflow gets updated

Hiding Button in UWL for specific workflow task items

Hi -
In UWL, is there a way to control the visibility of standard buttons like "forward", "replace", or "create Adoc Request" based on the task type.
Example, i would not want to provide the "forward" button option for a specific tasks like expense tasks.
We are on EP 6 and ECC 5.0
Helpful answers will be rewarded with points.
Thanks
PR

I don't think excluding the actions on the uwl iview property will fully solve this problem as, from what I understand, the actions should only be removed for certain tasks. The way to achieve this is to create different views for the tasks. This can be done in the uwl xml config file. You can assign tasks to be displayed by specific views, and within the definition of these views you can remove/add actions as well as modify the look and feel (to a certain extent). However, this will only affect the buttons/actions you see on the view section of the task - not the uwl list itself as the actions on the list are generic.
Check the following document which describes how to configure the uwl - check the section on views:
[How to configure the uwl.pdf|https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/a3461636-0301-0010-3787-978f5ac8bd45]

Task status after claimed by a user

Hello,
I assign task to a role on bpm server so users have the this particular role can see this task on their respective UWL list, with the task status 'New'. This is normal bpm procedure and works good.
However, when one of the user who has this role (for ex: user_a) clicks on the task link on the uwl this user claims the task and the status of the task changes into 'processing'. Therefore other users can not see the task on their own UWL.
(standart procedure for assigning the task to a role)
But customer requests that; other users who have this role could see the task on their own uwl even after one of them review the task (claimed the task but has not approved yet, just reviewed ). Is this possible ?
Regards,
Yasin

Yasin,
The user can review the task, then may be add some comments if any and put it back to the pool (i.e role to which the users are mapped) by using "Put Back" option available in the task UI available in the top right corner. This way multiple users who have access to the same task can review / add inputs.
Hope this helps.
My best,
Bala

Leave Request Workitem error Work item cannot be executed in status COMPLET

Hi All,
In case of leave request application when one particular manager is trying to approve the leqave request he is getting the error message
Work item 000000003046 cannot be executed in status COMPLETED
when i check in workflow log i am getting the workitem id for the dialog task it is 0000000002111
work item id 000000003046 mentioned in the workflows is for my background task which is already completed.
This is happening on production server. Other managers are able approve and reject the leave.
Please suggest.
Regards,
Umesh Chaudhari.

Hi Florin,
Thanks for your reply.
I could not understand your view fully you are saying
Why modifying the SAP Standard when it could be solved by the SAPNet? There's a hint in the OSS Note's text regarding a problem for custom-made workflow patterns related here.
Here are you suggesting some new sap note? which will revert to the previous code or something like that.
What pavan is talking is
SORT lt_dep_wis STABLE BY WI_ID. "Note ANK 980004
LOOP AT lt_dep_wis INTO lcl_dep_wis. ENDLOOP.
Pavan: can you please give the details of the implicit Enhancement - Enhancement point or something as I could not find any implicit enhancement here.
Please suggest.

Issue In Task List, When I select any SP13 task item its updating task status to "Completed" automatically

Hi Guys,
A strange issue I am facing in SharePoint 2013 task list. When I just select any task its updated the task status automatically to "Completed". When I unselect task its updated task status to "Not Started" automatically. I don't know
why its happening.

Hi,
It is by design in SharePoint 2013, you can quickly mark tasks as complete by clicking the checkbox.
If you want to select the item, please check the “select” column.
Select Items:
Mark task complete:

Task not showing in UWL XML File

Hello Experts,
I am back with another query in less than a week.
Requirement:- There is a Transaction BNK_APP by which users do their task (approve reject etc) it triggers a workflow and then the workitems are generated and sent to SAP Inbox. These workitems are now shown in the users Inbox in UWL.
Users dont want to see these particular workitems in their inbox as they are required to do this via the transaction and not via UWL.
Workarounds:- I have been told that there is noway at all that this can be controlled from the workflow or the backend it has to be done by changing the UWL XML. Is it true that this situation cannot be achieved by changing or filtering the workflow or backend.
From Portal, I can
1. go into the xml file and delete that Workitem Task no.(TS50100025) and upload it with new name with priority "high" and good to go.
2. I can put something like this :
<ItemTypes>
<ItemType name="uwl.HiddenTask" connector="WebFlowConnector" defaultView="DefaultView" defaultAction="launchWebDynPro" executionMode="default">
<ItemTypeCriteria systemId="SAP_WebDynpro_XSS" externalType=" TS50100025" connector="WebFlowConnector"/>
</ItemType>
</ItemTypes>
BUT BUT, I feel very awkward telling you this, but in the XML i DID NOT find a single entry with the Task no. TS50100025. I switched on the Troubleshooting for UWL and saw that the config file was "uwl.webflow" with the same Task id. But when I checked the uwl.webflow XML I did not find an entry with that Task no. either.
Whats wrong ?? Why the task/workitem is being shown in UWL but not in the XML ?? Is it even possible ??

Edited by: Rajat Sharma on Nov 2, 2011 6:14 PM

Hi Rajat,
For the items to appear in UWL, they need to be part of one of the XML files.
You are checking in wrong XML file.
Check in uwl.webflow.SAP_WebDynpro_XSS.
Second part, you don't need to or rather you shouldn't modify this ML file. Because every time you register the connector this file will be regenerated.
For more details on how to hide work items refer to SAP note 1437432.
In short
1. Create an XML file with any name say Hide Tasks.xml
2. An entry in this file might look like
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE UWLConfiguration PUBLIC '-//SAP//UWL1.0//EN' 'uwl_configuration.dtd'
>
<UWLConfiguration version="1.0">
<ItemTypes>
    <ItemType name="uwl.webflow.DoNotDisplay12" connector="WebFlowConnector" defaultView="something" defaultAction="something" executionMode="default">
      <ItemTypeCriteria systemId="SAP_R3_FINANCIALS" externalType="TS00300025" connector="WebFlowConnector"/>
    </ItemType>
    </ItemTypes>
</UWLConfiguration>

Task status is not changed in UWL

Task status is not changing when it is executed in UWL. the tasks comes from R/3 when a workflow is executed . SAP says realtime refresh not supportinng in current version of UWL. please let me know any workaround to solve this issue.
Thanks ,
Sarath

Hi,
Unfortuntely, there does not seem to be a 'working' workaround for the issue.
This is resolved however in SAP Netweaver 7.0 EhP2 or 7.20 versions.
Please see /thread/1564782 [original link is broken]

Task status not changing in UWL

Task status is not changed in UWL when the task is executed from UWL . workitems transfered from R/3 by executing a workflow .SAP says real time refresh not supports in this UWL version.
please let me know any workaround to solve this issue.
Thanks
Sarath

thats right.
UWL does not refresh immediately. You need to refresh the UWL again.
As I saw over internet, the Real-time Refresh feature for Universal Worklist is available in SAP NetWeaver 702 SP02 and above, and SAP NetWeaver CE 7.20 SP01 and above.

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.

Do not allow to delete Task in QN when Task is completed

Hello Team,
Is there is any way I can't allow user to delete task in QN when the task is completed, because currently system allow to delete task even if task in completed.
Thanks

1.Define status profile for task
SPRO>Quality Management>Quality Notifications>Notification Processing>Status Management>Define Status Profile>Maintain Status Profiles
You can create own status profile for task.
1-1.Check 'Task' for object types.
1-2.Define user status (example below)
Status-1-INIT-Initial-check 'Initial'-status change from 1 to 2
Status-2-COMP-Completed-status change from 2 to 2 then go to detail
1-3.Define transaction control for status-2-COMP
Click 'New entry'.
Check 'Allowed' and 'Set' for 'Complete Task'
Check 'Forbidd.' for 'Delete Task'
2.Assign status profile to notification type
SPRO>Quality Management>Quality Notifications>Notification Processing>Status Management>Define Status Profile>Status Profile for Notification Type
Now the user status will be assigned for new notification and you can prevent 'Delete task' for completed task.
