Work item and notification

Hi Experts
We have worklfow configured for Purchase requisition.
At creation of PR work item is generated. For not responding against work item, a reminder is generated for every day.
This reminder is a notification only (contains text item)
Is it possible to convert these notifications as work items?  It menas from any of the reminder, user should be able to release PR.
Please advise.
Thanks and warm regards

Hi Marias,
Your requirement is to execute the WI in the outlook not in the SAP environment. Correct ?
Unforatunately it is not possible. At max. you can send the notification.
I have found in some threads that using DUETS you can achieve it, but you need to check the budget for that. Agian it is not advisable. Reason -> SAP system wont have any data of the approver (in the case where the agent/ approver does not have any SAP User ID)
Thanks,
Debi

  • BPE crash - Trying to remove work item and SXMB_MONI message that caused it

    Hi,
    I have a file to IDOC scenario with BPE.  We have had a large file that was picked up by XI in error, but the adapter engine did process the XML conversion successfully.  This message was sent to the BPE but due to the message size, the BPE crashed.  Currently the work flow that caused the crash is in started status in report RSWF_XI_SWPC - continue workflow after system crash.  and we have a message in SXMB_MONI for this workflow that is still in status outbound to PE "message being sent".  We would like to remove or cancel the workflow and the message in XI.  I have searched around for the best way to do this in this situation but have not found anything.  We cannot cancel the message in SXMB_MONI due to the status it is currently in.  Can we:
    1. stop and start BPM to resolve the issue or
    2. some how change the status of the workflow to error so the message in SXMB_MONI can be cancelled.
    3. Should we just leave the work item and messge as is, because it is not affecting anything else in XI.
    Any help would be apprecieated.
    thanks.

    Hi,
    Thanks for your reply.  I'm pretty sure I can delete the work item from SWWL but I don't think the outbound status of the message is SXMB_MONI will change once this is done.
    thanks.

  • One of the user is unable to remove obsolete Tags from new work items and search query

    Hi I am new to TFS Administration, User has some obsolete Tags in TFS site which is removed on the Backlogs but user can see those tags when he is creating new work items and while querying the Work Items but he is not able to see any obsolete tags in Backlogs.
    TFS version: TFS 2013 SP2
    Steps followed:
    we queried each tags, we see 0 work items associated with the tags
    As per MSDN, we have to remove associated tags which automatically removes the Tags after 3 days
    The user is facing the same from past week
    Am i missing something? or will the list of Tags be available in new work items and  querying WITs? Please help
    Thanks in Advance

    Hi BE,  
    I tested this scenario in my TFS 2013 Update 4 Server, and found that Tags will disappear  from Tags dropdown list automatically after serverl days, if there’s no any work item associated that Tags.

  • Viewing ALL Open Work Items and Corresponding Approvers in System

    Is there a workflow report in ECC that displays ALL open work items in the system at any given time and their approvers that need to take action?

    Hi ,
    SWIA -  You can give a status of the workitem ( Ready , Inprocess ...........), workitem type (dialog....)
    in the selection criteria and also the time then you can find all the open workitems.
    And also you can check Header table SWWIHEAD it includes all the information related to workflows
    but this is a lenghty process need to process object type and need to refer so many attributes.
    best way is need to create one report make use of it.

  • AL BPM work items and tasks

    Hi,
    I am a newbie with AL BPM, and am trying to use it for a project. We are trying to manage breaks for incoming events. An event could have multiple breaks associated with it and would be assigned to a user to resolve.
    One of the key requirements is that the user would see only a single work item per event in the Inbox, but would see the break tasks in the detailed screen associated with it.
    Can I use the AL BPM work item/ task mechanism to do this? Is it possible to display work items alone in the inbox, if it has multiple tasks associated with it?
    Thanks in advance,
    AB

    Hi,
    If you'd like each individual person to execute the tasks, you might want to have a Split-N activity (now called "Multiple" in 10g) to create a work item instance for each person and assign it to that specific person using "participant.next" logic (inside the logic for the Split-N, you'd need to assign the specific participant using "next participant" logic to the specific work item instance).
    Following the Split-N, you could do the multiple task thing several different ways.
    1. Using a screenflow, you could have them accomplish the tasks in one sitting in the various screens that would be associated with the screenflow's flow of tasks. If you go this route, you might want to add "Save" button functionality so they could save their work and return to the screen where the left off when they come back.
    2. If the tasks are done in a specific sequence, you could have a series of Interactive activties following the Split-N with different screenflows. If you go this route, be sure to make the predefined variable participant property called "sticky" set to true so the instance stays stuck to the same participant.
    3. If the tasks could be done in any order, you could have a Split following the Split-N with each of the branches in the Split going to a different task. You'd want to make sure you've assigned the original participant as the next participant for each of the branches going to Interactive activities coming out of the Split activity.
    Hope this helps,
    Dan

  • Can I just add a state to bug work item and not set the state to the workflow

     Hi,
    Based on my team, we need to add a state/states to the bug work item, just add the bug state, and let it displayed in the state dropdown list. We don't want to add the state to the workflow. Can I do that? 
    Thanks,
    shmily

    Hi shmily,
    If you add a state for the bug in your work item definition file, you have to define the transition for the state. If not, when you change the state, the backlog page or task board will not display the work item correctly.
    Please check the links below for more information about workflow design guidelines and customization for work item type:

  • Work Order and Notification

    Hello,
    am a bit new with PM process, can anyone tell me how to do a work order with notification on it and confirmation will be made to the work order? please guide me step by step which is first to do and the transaction for each?
    thanks

    hi
    there is no separate confirmation for notifications, you can close the notification from IW22, or when you close order system willclose notifiaction also
    Choose Logistics ® Customer service ® Service processing or Logistics ® Plant maintenance ® Maintenance processing.
    You reach service processing or maintenance processing.
    Choose Orders ® Change.
    Enter the order number and call up the header data screen or the operation overview.
    For information on how to enter technical findings when completing the order, see Entering Technical Findings.
    Choose Order ® Functions ® Complete ® Complete (techn.).
    The dialog box Complete is displayed.
    Check the information in the dialog box and change it where necessary. If you want to complete the notifications contained in the object list at the same time, choose Complete notifications.
    Choose Complete.
    The system completes the order technically, assigns the relevant status to it, and saves it.
    It completes all notifications with the appropriate status. If assigned notifications cannot be completed, a message is displayed by the system informing you of this.
    Process these notifications accordingly and then complete them.
    You can do this either directly with the change function for notifications, or from the order.
    As before, call up the order using the change function, and choose
    Order ® Functions ® Complete ® Complete notifications
    Once you save the order, the outstanding notifications are also completed.

  • Identifying pending work items and sending emails to persons responsible.

    Hi Experts ,
    Can you please provide the database table where i can get the status of the work item along with the user/person responsible to act on that work item.
    Basically the requirement is to send emails to outlook of  employees having pending work items in their SAP inbox.

    Using this FM SAP_WAPI_CREATE_WORKLIST, you can get all workitems with status(STATUSTEXT,columname).
    May be this will work for you.

  • Forward Work Item And Restart Workflow

    My problem is that:
    Requester: John
    Manager: Peter
    John shops a SC. when the workitem comes in Peter´s Inbox, he decided to Forward this Shopping Cart to Jonh again.
    In this moment Peter can change the shopping cart and he has the button "Save".
    When he saves, the SC is automatically approved!!!!! I would like that when the shopping cart back to John the workflow must restart... It is possible?
    Thanks!

  • Obsolete and batch users can receive work items

    Dear Experts,
    Currently, we have found a problem that obsolete and batch users can receive work items by manual forwarding from someone. The roles and responsibilities of obsolete users were removed and users have been locked. For Batchuser, it's only created for some certain job with limited roles.
    Could you help advise if this's a behavior of workflow or it's from some authorization problem? We have concern for business impact since no one is really handling work items and important messages are out of sight.
    Thank you very much in advance.
    Regards, Kae

    Hello,
    This is standard behaviour. It is even possible to send work items to users who do not yet exist (e.g. someone who is due to join the company).
    The easiest way to workaround is to set up a substitution for any users that get locked and for background users. Personal substitutes can be maintained directly in table HRUS_D2, you could possibly write your own maintenance transaction for this if it is to be an ongoing issue.
    Hope that helps,
    Mike

  • How to get all kind of GP work items for all users

    Dear all:
       Basing GP implementation,we can only get the single user's work item. Is that possible to get all of the users' work items,and can filter the work item via time field?
      thanks a lot.

    ISearchResult result=UMFactory.getUserFactory().getUniqueIDs();
                   IUser iuser;
                   while(result.hasNext())
                        iuser=UMFactory.getUserFactory().getUser(result.next().toString());
    The above code retrives all the users from the UME
    IGPUserContext context = GPContextFactory.getContextManager().createUserContext(iuser);
    IGPWorkItem[] workitems = GPProcessFactory.getRuntimeManager().getWorkItems(GPWorkItemStatus.getTypeForCode("1"), context);
    You will get the WorkListItems in the workitems array. The type for code which is 1 currently, must be changed according to the requirement. It is different for Completed, Inprogress Tasks, etc.
    Hope this will help you!

  • Can I report on the AGE of open Work Items? How? Group into Buckets?

    Is there a way to report on the age of open work items?
    Perhaps a bar graph that has several buckets.
    a.    Over 364
    b.    180 to 364
    c.    90 to 179
    d.    1 to 89
    And then a COUNT in each bucket. 
    For example, if a Work Item is open longer than 364 day, it would appear in bucket "a" as a count of 1.  Say there are a total of 45 Work Items that were opened older than 364 days, then "45" would appear in column "a" now say that there are 100 work items open that are 1 to 89 days old, then 100 would appear in the "d" bucket.
    Make sense?  How can I report like this?

    Hi mrpeepers,
    You can use following MDX script when you create this report that uses TfsOlapReportDS
    with
    member [Measures].[Age]
    As
    IIF([Measures].[Current Work Item Count]>0,DateDiff("d",cdate([System_CreatedDate].[Date].CurrentMember .name),Now()),null)
    member [Measures].[AgeRange]
    as
    case
    when [Measures].[Age] >70 then 70
    when [Measures].[Age] >60 then 60
    when [Measures].[Age] >50 then 50
    when [Measures].[Age] >40 then 40
    when [Measures].[Age] >30 then 30
    when [Measures].[Age] >20 then 20
    when [Measures].[Age] >10 then 10
    when [Measures].[Age] >0 then 0
    when [Measures].[Age] <0 then -1
    else null
    end
     SELECT
     non empty
     {[Measures].[Current Work Item Count],[Measures].[Age] ,[Measures].[AgeRange]}
     ON COLUMNS,
     [System_CreatedDate].[Date].[Date].AllMembers on Rows
     FROM [Current Work Item]
    And then, drop a Chart to report designer, select “Current_Work_Item_Count” as datafield,  AgeRange as category field.
