WDA - Workflow Integration Problem...

Hi pple,
Is there any standard SAP ABAP Web Dynpro Application which is integrated with Workflows?
I mean, is there any Standard Workflow that calls ABAP Web Dynpro Application?
Actually, I am able to call the ABAP WD Application using SWFVISU application, but the only problem is...HOW CAN I SEND DATA FROM WORKFLOW CONTAINER TO WD ABAP ?
Did anyone get to work in this area? If so, can you help me in giving me an idea of how to do this.
I am trying to get the Workitem number from UWL inside my WD Application, but I am unsuccessful...Did any one tried doing this...???
I achieved the same in JAVA WD Applications using
Str_WI_ID = WDProtocolAdapter.getProtocolAdapter().getRequestObject().getParameter("WI_ID").
This WDProtocolAdapter extracts the WI number from UWL inside my JAVA WD Application.
Is there any such class in ABAP also which does the same?
Regards,
Raja Sekhar

Hi Rajasekhar,
The WDA program that you want to integrate with workflow has a window with input plug "DEFAULT". Add "WI_ID" as a parmeter to the handler method of the plug.
You can now use that parameter directly in the handler method as the WID is passed as
parameter from the UWL.
Thanks,

OWB / Workflow integration problem

We have a OWB 11g installation running on Windows 2003 64-bit Server.
We have 2 OWB databases, one design repository and one runtime repository.
Workflow is installed and configured on the runtime database.
Oracle Workflow Location is set to the runtime repository, and checks out ok.
OWF_MGR user is also created in the OWB Design Center, although Oracle documentation is very unclear on this; only stating that
+"6. Create a Workflow Proxy User.+
+When the Workflow instance is remote from the database hosting the Warehouse+
+Builder repository, you need to create a proxy-user.+
+Within the database hosting the repository, use SQL Plus to create a user and grant+
+it the OWB_USER role as a default. This enables the remote OWF instance to+
+connect to the services provided by the Control Center."+
We're able to deploy Process Flows from the design repository to the runtime rep, but when we try to execute them through workflow, the warehouse builder browser reports the following 3 errors:
R+PE-02075: Oracle Workflow failed to process the execution request for Activity LOAD_FP_INDEX:START1. This may be because dependent objects have not yet been deployed.+
ORA-20002: Failed to call "PFFPVSL_WB_RTI_WORKFLOW_UTIL".initialize. Please check that "EXECUTE ANY PROCEDURE" privilege is set and that the OWB Runtime is available. ORA-20009: User OWF_MGR does not have access to the workspace with name:OWBRTREP and owner:OWBRTREP. OWF_MGR must be registered to access the workspace by the administrator or owner of the workspace
WB_RT_WORKFLOW_UTIL_11G.Execute_Start(PFFPVSL, WB_IK_20090213_135803_19093, 366, RUN) Wf_Engine_Util.Function_Call(WB_RT_WORKFLOW_UTIL_11G.EXECUTE_START, PFFPVSL, WB_IK_20090213_135803_19093, 366, RUN)
We've done the EXECUTE ANY PROCEDURE on the OWF_MGR user. The OWF service_doctor.sql script reports that "There are errors in one or more PL/SQL packages and functions", but fails to say anything else - everything is loaded and seeded correctly.
But what we notice when comparing with our working 10g installation, is that the runtime repository target user (OWBRTREP) is totally empty of tables, views, procedures etc on the new runtime database, whereas it has about 250 tables and lots of other objects on the 10g installation. This user is created through the OWB 11g design center, so why is there such a difference? Has something gone wrong when creating the runtime workspace?
(It was created with the Repository Assistant, which we had some trouble with on the 64-bit server, but after some work it now seems to run ok, exiting with success message after creating workspace user.)
Regards,
-Haakon-

Haakon,
Lets assume you have two databases with OWB Repository A installed on database A and OWB repository B installed on database B.
Repository A - your Design repository
Repository B - your Runtime repository (this is your target schema / database)
I hope you have control centre service running under Repository B and you have installed OWF schema (usually OWF_MGR) under repository B.
I hope in your repository A you have created a new configuration and new control centre to point to repository B and that configuration is active.
Now logon to repository B using repository owner login and add OWF_MGR and other target databases as your target user under SECURITY/USERS.
Create similar users under repository A.
It works for us in OWB 10g but i dont know about 11G might be something related to WORKSPACE concept.
Hope this helps.
Thanks,
Sam.

Workflow integration with Aperture or iPhoto, and storage/deletion questions.

I have been using my iPad to download and view photos when I am travelling. I liked the fact that I could delete bad photos or do basic edits like crops and straightens in the "Photos" app and those edits would be saved when I transferred the photos to Aperture. And furthermore, the edits would be shown in Aperture as edits with the ability to revert back to the original or modify those edits later (for example if I wanted to change a crop or fine tune a straighten). This is an example of nearly perfect workflow integration, only problem is that the tools are pretty basic, for example the straighten tool requires an awkward gesture and has no control for fine tuning.
Now when I bought iPhoto for iOS I figured it would be a more advanced version of that except with more complex editing abilities. However, when I make my edits in iPhoto for iOS, no matter how I import my photos onto my mac there seems to always be two different versions of each photo rather than having both the original and the edit combined like when I edit directly in the "Photos" app. And there's no way to fine tune the edits once imported into iPhoto or Aperture like there is when I edit the photos inside of the Photos app. Is this the correct behavior, and if so, is there anyway to make iPhoto for IOS behave more like the Photos app editing mode in terms of workflow integration.
Also, I am unsure how the photos are stored in iPhoto for IOS. If I have a bunch of freshly imported photos in my "Photos" app's film roll, and then I edit them all in iPhoto for iOS, I now have two versions of each photo - one in iPhoto and one in the film roll. If I want to delete some photos to save space, can I delete all of the originals in the Film Roll and just keep the edits in iPhoto until I can sync with my Mac, or will that delete it in both places? Manually saving each edit as a new photo in the Film Roll and then deleting the original is tedious. Is the iPhoto app's library only storing the edited versions while the film roll is only storing the originals? Seems kind of like a weird way to handle things, and very unintuititive for those of us used to either iPhoto or the iOS film roll method of editing.
I'm a fairly advanced user and all of this is pretty confusing to me. It seems like I might just have to ignore iPhoto for iOS and go back to my old method of editing in the Photos app for workflow integration purposes, but I wanted to check to see if I was missing something or doing something wrong first before giving up on iPhoto for iOS.

Hello Robert. wow, dense prose...
this wil be more transversal.. hope you'll forgive me.
iPhoto has several shortcomings that other people might point out. I'll just mention a few.
when you adjust the image, using the adjustement HUD that floats around just like the one in aperture, you're making destructive pixel changes. True, iP 6 has a way of keeping the original untouched, but the two images will live separate lives (in albums, etc). Furthermore: once you move to the next picture you want to enhance, all the adjustment HUD sliders return to zero. This means that you'll never be able to return to an image and visualize the changes you made to the picture looking at the sliders. You'll have to guess. and restart from scratch.
About quality: the adjustement sliders in Aperture are waaay more subtle. iPhoto sliders impact the image in a very visible way.... as you "touch" will immprove, you might start to feel that adjusting with iPhoto is a bit gross.
File renaming: personnal opinion: don't bother. set your camera to increase numbering always... and if possible choose a meaningful prefix (few cameras allow that, the Nikon D200 does). beyond that, I don't have time for this, and don't need it... keywording images is a much more effective way of making them easier to locate. my own view. others will disagree.
duplicates: lots of people have identified this shortcoming in aperture. considering in version 1.5 they took the time to be able to identify referenced masters in a pretty comprehensive way (using a bunch of data like name+ date/time of capture to reconnect to a lost master), I'd be really surprised if the next major version doesn't fix that.
Aperture accepts to import/reference your iPhoto folder but I don't think the former will see changes made in the latter..?
just a few ideas.... HTH

LR positioning / workflow integration schemes for presentation

Do a couple of talks/year at conferences re front-end and workflow. On the video/broadcast side of things, the subject of LR rarely surfaces. We integrate LR into the workflow as a front-end pre-process prior to absorption by asset management. Thinking about positioning LR for our next talk. Looking for positioning / workflow integration schemes folks have an interest in sharing.

I have used this workflow for developing a few shoots and it has been working a treat. Makes lightroom a pleasure to use for me now.
The automation results in a RAW and jpg in the same folder with same name. Good for stacking and keeping a clean reference system.
I discovered a bug that occurs with the samename RAW/jpg in the same folder. Posted a thread here:
http://www.adobeforums.com/cgi-bin/webx/.3bc3493d
Basically if you rename the jpg, the RAW gets renamed too. And you can move the jpg around in grid mode properly. If you don't need to rename or move the jpgs around then the workflow is fine.
So I've made a slight adjustment to the workflow which auto renames the developed jpg.
The steps are now:
1. Export from LR to watched folder d:\develops
- in the export dialog, make sure you select 'open in photoshop' in the dropdown menu.
After this step you get a jpg (or whatever format you choose) in the sortbox with same name as the RAW, and the file open in PS.
2. Edit and ctrl-S in Photoshop
- photoshop will save the edited image to the develops folder (because this is where it opened the image from). LR then auto imports to the SORTBOX folder. Because there is already a jpg with the same name in the sortbox, LR will automantically rename the jpg with filename_2.
3. Delete the original export jpg from the sortbox and move the edited filename_2.jpg to the destination RAW folder for stacking.
The filename will be different and not be affected by the bug described. Still very quick and easy, possibly better if you don't mind the changed filename.

Oracle Interconnect - Workflow Integration

Hello,
We are working on an integration project using interconnect 4.1 and workflow.
In interconnect we use content based routing, for workflow we defined routing rules.
When using the workflow integration we succeeded in receiving an event FROM
interconnect TO workflow (WF_IN agent), when we complete the workflow proces (simple approve)
we want to send an event back FROM workflow TO interconnect : but we don't know
how to do this!
- To which Agent do we have to send our event using the workflow builder (to agent, out agent?) ?
- How do we have to define that agent (adress, Queue Handler, Queue Name, direction)?
- Is there any documentation about this?
Greetings,
Jan Marckx

Check out the white paper "Getting Started with the Oracle Workflow9i/2.6.2 Business Event System and Oracle9i Advanced Queueing"
at http://otn.oracle.com/products/integration/workflow/workflow_wp_bes.pdf
This describes Workflow's integration with AQ.
Also, you could look at the "Using Workflow" chapter in the Oracle9iAS InterConnect User's Guide
at http://otn.oracle.com/docs/products/ias/doc_library/90200doc_otn/integrate.902/a92174/workflow.htm

IS there any document containing an example of integration of Oracle Workflow with Oracle InterconnectOracle AQ ? If so, please send me the link from where I can download it.

Greetings,
Jan Marckx Hi,
I remember feeling your pain. Hope I'm not too late, or that you got it already.
You sound like you already have two routing rules for your event
APP1 -> WORKFLOW, WORKFLOW -> APP2.
You need to create a process bundle in iStudio in Design mode with some Publish and Subscribe
activities under it.
In the Deploy tab, right click on Workflow and Deploy Event definitions to Workflow Bus. System
and create the .wft file.
Go into WF and check if the events show up in the Events page.
Go into WF Builder and open the .wft file.
Look for your Publish and Subscribe events in Processes and open the diagram.
Click on the processes in the diagram to see the Event Name, Agent, Action etc. They should all
be correctly generated) You need to look at the properties in the instance of the event (in the diagram) and not in the navigator.

Remedy Workflow integration

Using IDM 7.1 and Remedy 5.6 (& 7).
We have been able to configure a resource for Remedy and the test connection works fine. But we want to manage Remedy workflows (tasks / templates / CTI etc) and not user accounts on Remedy.
But I have not been able to find any documentation for Remedy and much less for the Remedy workflow integration. The Resources reference is very sparse.
Has anybody successfully integrated IDM with Remedy Workflows? Can you please provide some pointers.
Thank you.

Hi Jose,
I've done this recently in our project.
You need NOT to have a Lotus - SAP connector for this if you are in version ECC6.
Try to access tcode SWNCONFIG. This will not require you to have any middleware or some sort. This is just plainly a CONFIGURATION task in the said tcode.
Just search a documentation on SWNCONFIG Extended Notifications.

Portal BW Integration Problem - Role Menu Error

Hi, I have a web template with a role menu on it. The application works fine when I execute it directly on the BW Server. But, whenever I execute the application through our portal and select a node on the role menu I receive a windows error dialog with the following message:
A runtime error has occurred.
Do you wish to Debug?
Line: 250
Error: Permission Denied
[Yes] [No}
Seems like Portal/BW integration problem.
Can anyone help?

MM - HR integration problems

Hello all,
I have a problem with my release strategy for Purchase Requisition. Whenever I create a PR the release is triggering, but the problem is the processor, i.e. the name of the person who should release this PR is not triggering. We have maintained the workflow properly and also maintained the release levels, Positions, SAP user IDs in PO13 and PA30 transactions. Please, can someone tell me what are the possibilities for Processor not triggering in Purchase requisition?? What are the activities the HR ppl has to do from their side so that the processor should trigger along with the release strategy in purchase requisition???
Pls guys, analyse this problem and help me out.
Thanks and Regards,

Hi Avudaiappan,

Process Integrator Problem (use of session bean variable between tasks)

Hello,
I'm having a problem using the Process Integrator. I made a
really simple workflow (Start, Task1, Task2, Done) which uses
the bean given whith the order processing example. Task1 creates
the bean and executes a business operation (check inventory).
Task2 executes another business operation (calculate total
price). The problem is when I try to execute this second b.o I
get an exception saying
Nested exception is: Workflow error:
com.bea.wlpi.common.WorkflowException: Empty instance object for
business operation "Calculate Total Price" in
template "Template3".
Someone could help me and tell me what I am doing wrong.
Thanks in advance,
Albert

If I understand you correctly, you have 3 business operations, one is "Create a EJB",
one is call "Check Inventory", the other is "Caculate Total Price". I assume you
save the EJB handle to a workflow variable with a type Bean. My speculation is when
you define business operation for "Calculate Total Price", you did not associate
it with the workflow variable that you saved the EJB handle. Just a wild guess.

Illustrator to Photoshop integration problem. Need help.

Hi there,
I use these two applications interchangebly, creating vector artwork in Illustrator that I bring into Photoshop to integrate with photographs and to texture my vector artwork, etc. I've been using this method for a few versions now- I like the flexibility but like many Adobe innovations, I've encountered a problem.
My document in Photoshop is 9' x 12", and for consistency, I make my Illustrator artboard 9" x 12" as well. I can mix and match all day inside of my Illustrator artboard, then copy that artwork directly into Photoshop to have it seemlessly land on the same coordinates in my 9" x 12" PS document. BUT- If my artwork in Ai crosses my artboard borders, copying my artwork into my PS document constrains it within the 9" x 12" PS doc.
It makes sense- I get it, only had this been the case the first 3,000 times I've used this method! I've been working all day WITHOUT that happening. I've been creating inside of my Ai artboards, some of that artwork has portions crossing enemy lines, and upon copying it into PS, it was a perfect translation. I was integrating like a pro, no questions or qualms.
About an hour ago, PS and Ai stopped talking to one another. I'm left to push in on my monitor with watering eyes to make sure every pixel lines up- which they don't.... To make matters worse, when the Vector Smart Object enters photoshop, sized within the bounds of the document (rather than directly translated) with free-transform already enabled- All I can do is zoom in and out and pray to Adobe that holding shift will snap the edges of my vector artwork to the edges of my PS document. WRONG. It's off, even by just a few pixels after 10 minutes of resizing efforts- that's unacceptable. It's disgusting that this is a road block.
I thought a fix would be masking all of that Ai artwork to the size of the artboard, then copying it into Photoshop. Same problem- why would PS take into account masked artwork data? I understand that it shouldn't throw it away, but it's masked for a reason! One doesn't even edit the Vector SO inside of PS- PS tosses you back into Ai when you want to edit that vector artwork anyway...
My once seamless cross-app composition has gone rogue, and any time I bring artwork from Ai to PS that bleeds over the artboard, it is resized to fit inside of my Photoshop doc. Again - I get it - had this been the way Ai and PS integrated from the beginning, middle, and end. But now I'm in the middle, and the two of them are telling different stories.
Long story short- this abrupt workflow change seems to have activated at no fault of my own. I'm very autonomous, and I check my tracks when I create to avoid this awful "WTF did I do?!?!". Can anyone provide any leads, or perhaps a solution, as to why my applications have stopped working together? I hope all I have to do is check a little box somewhere...
Thank you in advance!

Mask boundries haven't meant anything since CS4 I beleive. I reported it as an integration bug a couple years ago.
I think vector masks should create the boundaries when pasting into Photoshop. The bounding box shouldn't use or see the masked areas at all.
So.... I feel your pain at times.
What helps is to adjust the Photoshop preferences and uncheck "Resize Images During Place". That way your art won't resize. Then you can snap the edges of the visible data to the document edges.

Web Dynpro - Workflow integration

Hello,
Can someone please tell me what are the methods we can use for integrating Web Dynpro and Workflow. I have to create a custom Business Object for this purpose.
I have found out that we can use the FM 'SAP_WAPI_CREATE_EVENT' to trigger an event from the WD screen code. Please let me know if anyone has used the same and kindly share the experience.
Many thanks in advance.

Hi
The very important thing to integrate the WDA with workflow is task registration where you are sending work item to SAP inbox with url once the url is clicked the WDA page will open and where the user will take action. These are few guidlies i would suggest for your scenario:
1) If there are approval process then go for workflow if only simple mail sending with validation do go for workflow. Everything can be handled in your screen itslef.
2) If you want to determine the approver based on some validation then go for workflow ex. travel request based on employee group <= condition go for this level of approver else go for this level of approver.
3) For your scenario fellow this way.
a) Use FM SAP_WAPI_CREATE_EVENT OR SAP_WAPI_START_WORKFLOW but strictly advise to use event create FM rather than start workflow where you are hardcoding the workflow template no. So avoid it.
b) After triggering the workflow need to validate the condition use some custom FM or class to do this. Do Not write entier code in your method of BOR which will not be helful if you want to call that method somewhere other then your workflow you cannot call it. So always write the business logic in ZFM and call inside your method which will be robost.
c) To communicate the values from workflow and WDA use SAP_WAPI_WRITE_CONTAINER AND SAP_WAPI_READ_CONTAINER.
d) To determine the approver create new FM write the logic for approver. Usually we will create rule but for your case its not adviced you are calling WDA screen. In the task(activity) of the workflow in the express field pass the approver user id in the workflow container element which will send the workitem to the SAP inbox.
e) Once the workitem received the workitem to inbox once clicked it your WDA screen has to open for that need to do TASK regestration from SWFVISU t-code just check thsi its been long for me
f) After approving by clicking on approve button the send back the data if comments are there by using the above mentioned FM.
g) Then finally use send mail step to send mail.
For task registartion and data exchange from workflow and WDA see the blog for BSP the same requirement is done using the BSP. Check that which will give excat idea.
