Whether Workflow Program Exit works in ABAP WebDynpro

Hi,
I have the custom workflow in which in each task i have given a program exit to update the status into my custom tables.
Now i'm in doing the change in workflow, that it should call the abap webdynpro screen, where the user decisions has to be made.
I'm getting the Workitem id from the UWL and then it lauches the Web Dynpro to choose either Approve, Reject or Change etc along with some other travel expense information.
Now once i complete the web dynpro by calling the method 'SAP_WAPI_WORKITEM_COMPLETE', the particular work item is completed.
I want to ask whether before this FM is called,whether the Program Exit which i have written in the Class method and which is called in the Workflow, whether it triggers or not?
Regards,

It is calling the workflow program exit before the SAP_WAPI_WORKITEM_COMPLETE function module.
So closing the thread.

Exit button in ABAP Webdynpro doesnot work with SPNEGO

Dear Webdynpro Gurus,
we are in weird situation where we have webdynpro application in ABAP with exit button.
we have ABAP System and EP System and SSO configured for these two systems.
We configured EP system with Microsoft Active directory for single-signon with SPNEGO.
this configuration is working fine.
the situation is when we click on exit button, it is not redirecting to the main iview and there is no action taking place.
please find the code for the exit button:
*METHOD onactionexit .*

Doubt in Workflows using Programming Exits on OO ABAP

I have a doubt on workflows:-
Let me brief you about my requirement:
I am trying to update some Master data using ABAP Methods through Programming Exits in a Workflow.
I managed to find an OO method that can fetch the workflow container values directly into the structure.
While testing the workflow:-
The OO ABAP method executes and successfully updates the master tables.
However, a calling method (that triggers this method indirectly), raises an exception called SWF_RUN_WIM_EXEC_INTERRUPTED.
The exception is caught within the caller method and the workflow errors saying that the method ABC cannot be executed.
The caller method is:-
CL_SWF_RUN_WORKFLOW_START
The exception is raised on execution of the following statement:-
CALL METHOD me->start_workitem( lh_wi_handle ).
One reason for this is that the workflow is still not completed and still in READY state.
Alternative method
Once the Master data is updated successfully,
I tried to use the FM SAP_WAPI_WORKITEM_COMPLETE to end the work item or tried another FM to suspend the workflow.
Now it gives an error saying that these FMs are restricted from use during run-time execution.
Query
Do you have an idea why the exception is raised and how to track/prevent the same?
Can you suggest any other alternative? Your valuable advice is urgently needed.
Thanks a million in advance,
Best Regards,
Vinod

FM to read multiline WF container from abap webdynpro

Hi Gurus,
We are stuck in reading workflow multiline container in our ABAP webdynpro code. Hope some one can assist us.
Let me brief you the issue.
We need to read the workflow multiline container using our webdynpro program. we are using the FM SAP_WAPI_READ_CONTAINER to read the container elements of the workflow by passing workitem id as an input. But this FM is failing to pick the multiline container. Can any one of you advise the alternate way to proceed with this ?
Merry Christmas to all.
Cheers,
BG Suseendran

Hello Suseendran !
               Thanks for your Christmas wishes.
               You can use the following function modules :
                SWI_READ_CONTAINER_OBJECT
                SWW_WI_CONTAINER_READ

Models in Abap Webdynpro.

Hi All,
I am a Java guy having knowledge in Java webdynpro, it happend for me to get into ABAP webdynpro just had a small query here.
How does models functionality work in ABAp Webdynpro.
How do we access RFC, BAPI, web services, EJBs etc in ABAP web dynpro.
Thanks in Advance,
Sai Krishna.

Hi Sai,
Model is nothing but the business logic similar to the Java webdynpro . I guess you have seen those Hook methods like WD_doinit, WD DOmodifyView some standard default methods which we get according to the requirement we write our code as and where we want . One basic thing is u must be aware of the Context which is the heart of the webdynpro abap applications the interaction between the screen and the database is done by this .
Let me take a small example of how are we going to use the RFC or Bapis.
EG:
We have a screen UI elemnets in which we have one input field and a table our aim is to fetch the data into the table depending upon the input field or say selection field . and here we will be using say RFC or it may be a BAPI.
SO step1. Intially we desing the screen UI elements , create a Node for the input field with cardinality (0:1). and create another node for the table binding with cardinality as (0:n).then bind the values of the screen .
step2: Now since after giving the value in the input filed we want to fetch the data. On action of the Button or on enter of the input filed we need to write our code.
That means here our bapi or RFC comes into picture . what we need to do is get_attribute of the input field and call that RFC in import values pass the get_attribute value and see that it returns some table
say lt_table.
Now when you debug you can see the table values which we need to bind it to the table.
lo_nd_table->bind_table( lt_table ).
This will fetch the table values depending upon the input field values you giv .
Hope it is clear and helpful.
Have A GoodDay:)
Regards,
Sana.

How do the Program exits in Workflow work?

hi all,
there is a Program Exit available in Workflow tasks...and it says
You can execute additional methods that you have programmed when predefined events occur. Add the ABAP classes that contain these methods. The ABAP classes added must support the IF_SWF_IFS_WORKITEM_EXIT interface.
now i want to use this program exits in my workflow...so that this program exit(which is basically a class) will take input from Workflow container and gives back processed data back to workflow.
so how to go about with these Program exits.

How to Trigger a Workflow from ABAP Webdynpro

Hi All Gurus,
I have the following urgent requirement, my client is implementing HR and there is a requirement, where is a ABAP Webdynpro component in which we have integrated a Adobe Interactive Form. When the user calls this from through Portal and fills out the relevant data and submits it, a Workflow in the backend ECC system should lauch,
I am not familiar with, this concept although I have worked in Workflow this is the first time I am interfacind with ABAP Webdynpro and Adobe Interactive From.
Can you please let me know in steps what needs to be done to make the workflow trigger for my scenario and also the specific settings to be done in the bacckend.
Regards,
Pratima Jain

Hi,
If you are using HCM Processes and Forms, the Workflow and form are not directly related, thats true.
But the method in the task calls the corresponding webdynpro application which responds to the action triggered by the user in turn to trigger the workflow and update the data in the HR Master Data.
There are 3 layers 1. UI (webdynpro which launches Adobe Interactive form based on ISR Framework)
2. Workflow
3. Backend framework (used for retrieving F4 helps, default values, save data in the infotypes).
for more documentation, please refer it on help.sap.com.
http://help.sap.com/erp2005_ehp_03/helpdata/EN/82/b6b94278560c31e10000000a1550b0/content.htm
hope this helps.

Need to open an ABAP WebDynpro application from Portal UWL work item

Hi All
I need some suggessions on how to navigate to an ABAP WebDynpo application iview from a mail(Work Item) in portal UWL.
Requirement in detail:
Agreements will be created from portal( Agreement Creation Application is developed in ABAP webDynpro and iview has been created with in the portal for this WD application). as and when the agreement is created a mail (ECC Workitem) should trigger to the approver, who has access to portal and check the mail(Work Item) from the portal UWL.
The mail body should consist the link to the Agreement created in portal ( Link to navigate to the Agreement Creation ivew).
So, the main requirement is user should navigate to the Agreement creation iview when he open the mail from UWL.
Mail can be sent from ECC by using ABAP Function modules or by creating a workflow
Please advice me on how can we achieve this requirement.
Thanks & regards

Hi,
You can call the iView directly by using NavigationTarget..
http://myServer:50000/irj/portal?
NavigationTarget=ROLES://portal_content/myFolder/myRole/myIview
Plz note that the iView you are calling should be part of a Role.
And the PCD location of the iView in the Role must be given for Navigation Target.

Current Agent Value in Program Exit Workflow

Hi Gurus,
we are using program exit to send mail to outlook on user decsion step and it is working fine for Sequential approval but when we have to send mail for parallel approval(have used block for parallel approval) we are not able to fetch current agent.
- Have store agent in workflow container 'Agent' and used it in Block in workflow for implementing parallel appoaval.
- Created class implementing inetrface IF_SWF_IFS_WORKITEM_EXIT and put it under program exit of user decsion in workflow
- Now in this class I have created method at work item created to trigger email for which i require runtime work item id and agent for it.
- We are getting workitem id at runtime and based on it picking up approval agent from workflow container and send mail to it.
- this workfs fine for sequential one as there is only one approver at a time but in parallel where all approver are maintained in one multiline container, it is sending mail to first person maintained in multiline container.
Please find steps below what i have tried:-
- i tried with FM RH_USERS_OF_WI_READ to get current agent for particular work item id but it is throwing dump no value found at runtime but stangely gives value if we run standalone for same work item id.
- Then, I tried putting wait upto to see if it helps, but then also above fm is unable to fetch agent.
- Tried by putting select on SWWUSERWI table but that also is not giving current agent
Question is:
Why we are not able to get value of current agent through above FM or select from userwi table? How do we get current agent value at the time of work item creation event is triggered which further hits our custom method.
Please help...
Regards
Ajit C

Hi Ajit,
Here you go.
You must be having a multiline container (probably of type WFSYST-AGENT) in your workflow which holds all the user ids to whom work item must be going parellely. e.g if the multiline container name is AGENT.
The current agent from that multiline container is referred by &AGENT[_AGENT_line_]&. This you must hast have put in your user decision step/activity as an agent also.
Now in your user decision step/activity, create one single line container element of type WFSYST-AGENT e.g. current_agent. in workflow to task binding, bind &AGENT[_AGENT_line_]& to CURRENT_AGENT. This way you will have current agent in that task container.
Finally use function module SAP_WAPI_READ_CONTAINER using WORKITEM id to read the value of CURRENT_AGENT in your program exit.

Ibrahim

Workflow to UWL to ABAP WebDynpro ( Binding not happening)

Hi All,
I have created Workflow which need to be executed from UWL.
The workitem in UWL will call a ABAP Web Dynpro application for approval Process.
I have registered the my Task in SWFVISU and Maintained the necessary settings (Even Re-registered the new task in UWL ).
When I click the workitem in UWL it successfully calls the ABAP webDynpro application.
But the Parameter WORKITEM id is not transfered from workflow to Web Dynpro Application.
I have created a parameter WORKITEMID in the Workflow and populating it at runtime. But the same is not being passed to WebDynpro Import Parameter.
I see that WORKITEMID is initial at runtime while debugging in WebDynpro Application.
Can you please help me to bind the WORKITEMID from Workflow to WeBsynpro or from UWL to WebDynpro??
Thanks
Praveen

Hi,
You have bind the work item id to the task?
You have added the work item id parameter in SWFVISU?
Can you show us the UWL XML code for your task?
