Work Management Service Application

does anyone have a step by step guide on how to create from scratch a work management service application, i have deleted mine due to issues with task syncs i think it was the configuration of this application that was causing this issue,
any help welcome.
Cheers

Hi,
According to your post, my understanding is that you wanted to create Work Management Service Application.
The following Service Applications must be provisioned before you can deploy the Work Management Service Application:
Search
User Profile
In addition to this, the Work Management service account must have some further permissions configured:
Full Control on the User Profile Service Application
Grant Access To Process Identity
To Create Work Management Service Application, Navigate to Application Management in SharePoint central administration, select Manage Service Application link. In Service applications page, create new Work Management Service Application, and specify the
details.
After re-create a new Work Management Service Application, we need to:
Create a new Application Pool, but use the same account as for the Application Pool hosting your My Sites/Social or Portal.
Run a crawl
Incremental, continuous or full crawl should suffice.

Work Management Service (WMS) Application on mulit-farms

Hi guys,
Is there any limitation for configuration the Work Management Service (WMS) Application on multi-farms?
I have 2 farms – farm A hosts all SAs and farm B hosts only web contents.
I understand there is dependency between WMS and search and UPS. Does that mean I cannot deploy my WMS on farm A?
Thanks

Hi,
According to your post, my understanding is that you want to configuration the Work Management Service (WMS) Application on multi-farms.
Per my knowleadge, you can deploy Work Management Service on farm A.
Though there is dependency between WMS and search and UPS, , some service applications such as Search and User Profile can be shared across server farms in SharePoint 2013.
In addition, you can also configure a SharePoint Server 2013 content farm that receives search queries to trust the SharePoint Server 2013 farm that sends the queries.

Problem in adding Custom Provider for Work Management Service

Hello,
I'm facing an issue in adding custom provider for work management service. As you are aware, Work management service is a Provider model and we
can integrate with other systems by adding custom providers. So with that confidence, i have started writing a connector as mentioned below.
Step - 1: Added new provider xml in the below path
"C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Web Server Extensions\15\CONFIG\WorkManagementService\Providers"
Provider Name: provider.bizagitasklist
Provider XML Content:
<Provider ProviderKey="DAA52AF3-A147-4086-8C0C-82D2F83A089D" OverrideProviderKey="" Assembly="adidas.TaskProvider, Version=1.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=5d6f3e6be60a351b" > </Provider>
Step -2: Added a class which inherits "IWmaTaskProvider" and implemented the override methods.
public class BizAgiTaskListProvider : IWmaTaskProvider
public string LocalizedProviderName
get { return "BizAgiTaskListProvider"; }
public string ProviderName
get { return "BizAgiTaskListProvider"; }
public Microsoft.Office.Server.WorkManagement.CalloutInfo GetCalloutInfo(IWmaTaskContext context, string taskExternalKey, string locationExternalKey)
return null;
public DashboardExtensionInfo GetDashboardExtensionInfo(IWmaBasicProviderContext context)
return new DashboardExtensionInfo { ClassName = "SP.UI.SharePointExtension" };
public BulkEditResult HandleBulkEdits(IWmaTaskContext context, BulkEdit updates)
return null;
public TaskEditResult HandleTaskEdit(IWmaTaskContext context, BaseAggregatorToProviderTaskUpdate taskUpdate)
return null;
public void RefreshSingleTask(IWmaTaskRefreshContext context, string externalKey)
public void RefreshTasks(IWmaTaskRefreshContext context)
//context.WriteProviderCustomData(
Step – 3: Written a class to fetch the tasks from BizAgi System which has method to provide the task data.
But I’m not able to feed those tasks in the class written in Step – 2 as I’m able to find any method which will take Tasks as Input and I’m not
sure about the format of tasks.
I’m able to debug the provider, and the breakpoint hitting in only one method and two properties.
(LocalizedProviderName, ProviderName, GetDashboardExtensionInfo).
Can you please help me to proceed further in implementing the above solution?
Best Regards
Mahesh

Hi Mahesh,
Although the implementation of work management service application is based on the provider model, I reckon the current SP 2013 RTM does not support custom providers. Only SharePoint task lists, Project server and MS Exchange are supported for now.

Task Table in Custom DB as provider in Work Management Service?

I have a task table on a SQL 2008 Database (with usual task columns like assigned_to, task_title, status etc).
I understand that custom providers are unsupported for WMS.
Is it possible to create an External List (BCS) connecting to the SQL task table and use that as a provider for WMS?

Work Management Service: No tasks are shown on MySite

The work-management-service is not working.
On "MySite" the task-list is always empty (Pic.1), but there are tasks referenced to the profile.
I do not get errors in the ULS or on the task-page (refresh is OK).
Tasks are crawled and search works fine:
Are there any other settings i am not aware of ?

Cannot create new Service Application in Manage Service Applications in Central Administration

Hi!
I'm having problems with a new SharePoint 2013 Enterpise installation. The issue I'm having is is that if I navigate to Manage Service Applications and click on New I get nothing in the dropdown. If I use the wizard I can create new Service applications but
not through the Manage Service Applications page. Anyone know why? The button is not greyed out and I can click it but it doesn't show any service application at all (see picture).

Hi,
Based on your description, there is no service applications in the new dropdown list in SharePoint 2013.
Check things below:
Run the SharePoint products Configuration Wizard and then check if the same situation will occur.
Run Central Administration as administrator and then check the results.
According to your last post, it seems that there is something wrong about certificate.
How do you connect server through remote access? And check if it is the same situation when you create service application in SharePoint
server.

How are permissions applied between Web Applications and from Service Applications?

I'm quite confused about how permissions are applied to Content Databases in relation to service accounts. So, as an example, I have two web applications - Intranet whose service account is DOMAIN\sps_webapp_default - and My Sites whose service account is
DOMAIN\sps_webapp_social. The "sps_webapp_social" account has full control (through User Policy) to the Intranet web app.
When I go to My Sites> Sites> Suggested Links and click on any suggestions I get the below error and the site is not "followed". This Content Database sits under the Intranet web app which the sps_webapp_social has full control to.
I'm also getting similar permission issues when the account that runs various service applications tries to connect to the DB (such as workflow service). This is happening to new or migrated sites. I know permissions can be applied directly
in SQL but this can't be the way to do it?
Is there a simple reason why these permissions aren't propagating through?

I resolved my issue. I deleted the Work Management Service Application and created it again - this time, I made sure the IIS Pool (I created its own application pool) service account running this was the same as the My Site service account.
So, running under DOMAIN\sps_webapp_social. This seemed to clear up all of my permissions issues being thrown up in Event Viewer too.
My Sites really is a complicated beast... I'm getting there. Hopefully this helps somebody else!

Initiall SharePoint Server 2013 setup -- unable to manage new User Profile Service Application

During initial farm setup, creating an initial User Profile Service Application works fine. However, once it's created, I cannot 'manage' it through the Manage Service Applications page in central
admin.
I get a generic error (Sorry, something went wrong / unexpected error) with a correlation ID that doesn't seem to match any ULS log entries. (Yes, I merged logs from all machines in the farm.)
A Windows event log entry says:
A failure was reported when trying to invoke a service application: Endpoint Failure
Also frequent errors in ULS logs: (see below)
UserProfileApplicationNotAvailableException
User Profile Application      Proxy failed to retrieve partitions from User Profile Application: Micro…
SPDistributedCache DataCacheException
I did notice that the file 'ProfileService.svc does not exist in SharePoint's web services app at the URL you see in the error. (below)
I also found it interesting that the event log error shows 1 active endpoint and 3 failed endpoints. I have 2 WFEs and 2 app servers. But I'm only trying to get the user profile service app running on the application
servers. I have deleted and recreated this service app several times under various names (deleted/recreated its app pool as well) and wonder if these other failed endpoints could be orphans from previous instances...
Any thoughts on how I might successfully create this service application? I've already been Binging my head against a wall long enough that I would have been better off reinstalling the entire farm... I may still
do that.
FYI, my farm came from a slipstreamed SP1 install package, and received the July CU after several other things were already configured, including the already-failed UP service application.

Search Service Application problems after upgrading from Foundation to Enterprise edition of SharePoint 2013

Hi all. I have been searching for days for a solution to a problem I am having with SP2013 Enterprise edition.
We recently upgraded from SP2013 Foundation to SP2013 Enterprise. After the upgrade, the search services are no longer working and we are receiving many application log entries indicating the following:
Application Server Administration job failed for service instance Microsoft.Office.Server.Search.Administration.SearchServiceInstance (ea2019ef-bb9e-4efe-85ee-5d2307406f31).

as well as:

I have tried to remove the search service application and recreate it, and even though the SharePoint Central Administration states that it was created successfully, I am still getting the same errors in the log. If I go to the Search Service Application
Search Administration page, the "System Status" shows the following message:
The search service is not able to connect to the machine that hosts the administration component. Verify that the administration component '0359af35-0982-4ede-8838-b1d390e915bf' in search application 'Search Service Application' is in a good state and
try again
Additionally, under the "Search Application Topology" section, it states "Unable to retrieve topology component health states. This may be because the admin component is not up and running" which I assume is normal if the admin is not
running.
Does anyone know how I can resolve this problem?
Thanks!

Hi Joaquin,
According to your description, the error occurred when you re-created the Search Service Application.
Based on the error message, I recommend to verify the things below:
   1. Check if the association between the Search Service Application proxy and the web application is configured.
Please go to Central Administration > Application Management > Configured service application associations > Click Default to see if the Search Service application is checked.
   2. Change the app pool for the Search Service Application to SharePoint Web Services Default in the properties of the Search Service Application.
Please go to Central Administration > Application Management > Manage service applications > Highlight the Search Service Application > Click Properties in the ribbon > Change
the two app pool to SharePoint Web Services Default: App Pool For Search Admin Web Service and Application Pool for Search Query and Site Settings Web Service.
    3. Run PS command to check if the search admin timer job is enabled: Get-SPTimerJob
job-application-server-admin-service | fl. If it is not enabled, use PS command to enabled it and then reset Internet Information Services: Enable-SPTimerJob job-application-server-admin-service.
Best regards.
Thanks

Installed SQL Reporting Services 2012 on SharePoint 2013 Server. SQL Reporting Service not available In the list of runnning services or new service applications

Hi I'm trying to setup SQL reporting services in a SharePoint 2013 farm consisting of:
4 WFE's
4 App Servers (NLB Central Admin x 4 servers)
4 App Severs for SSRS (Light limited SharePoint services running)
I've installed SSRS 2012 SP1 by following the guide (http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/gg492276.aspx) on one of the SSRS SharePoint 2013 servers and ensuring Reporting Services - SharePoint and Reporting Services Add-in for SharePoint Products is selected.
All completed without errors and I have even upgraded to SP2 for troubleshooting but no joy.
I've then gone into SharePoint Central Admin and I cannot see SQL Reporting Service available In the list of runnning services on the server I have just installed SSRS on and going to manage service applications I cannot see in the new dropdown menu SQL
Reporting Services.
I have ran the following commands in the SHarePoint management shell:
Install-SPRSService and Install-SPRSSeviceProxy
and
get-spserviceinstance -all |where {$_.TypeName -like "SQL Server Reporting*"} | Start-SPServiceInstance
The reply was that the service was already online on the server.
So in powershell all seems ok but it does not appear in central administration.
I have also moved Central Administration to the SSRS SharePoint server too.
Any other suggestions? Here is the same problem but in SP2010 (http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/office/en-US/6a21cc05-1f9b-49ad-a9bb-44aa5b3ce312/action?threadDisplayName=after-installing-sql-reporting-services-service-for-sharepoint-2012-service-is-not-in-the-list-of)
In my lab environment of a 4 server SP2013 farm it worked immediately when i installed it on the app server (CA host) so I dont think it is my install strategy.
I guess my next attempt is to install SSRS on an app server with central administration hosted.
Thanks

I had the same issue on 2 different environments.
I had 2 application servers. One had Central Administration. I installed SSRS on the other one and it never appeared in the Service Applications in SharePoint.
When I also provisioned Central Administration on the other application server and went to the service applications using Central Admin on that server, the SSRS service application was there.
Since then I always install SSRS on the server which hosts Central Admin. No issues then.

Service applications and services

What is the difference between services and service applications in sharepoint 2013. I am talking about
1. Application Management->Service Applications -> Manage service applications
2. Application Management->Service Applications -> Manage Services
They both are listed under service applications
Also if I create a Managed Metadata service from Application Management->Service Applications -> Manage service applications->New it
wont turn on Managed Metadata Web Service by itself during the process. So how are they tied to each other.

Take a look at: http://www.harbar.net/articles/sp2010sa2.aspx
Correct, if you create a Service Application, it doesn't automatically start the service instance (as you may want the SA, but only want to run the SI on specific SharePoint servers). Where the SI runs is where the actual 'work' for that SA occurs.

SQL Server Reporting Services Add-In disappered but SSRS Service Application is there

Good Day,
I am using SQL Server 2012 SP1, and SharePoint 2013 SP1.
In the SharePoint Central Admin, Reporting Services Add-In is missing but in the "Manage Service Application" page, SQL Server Reporting Services Application is appearing and I have created SQL Server Reporting Services Application. And, in
the "Services on Server page", the "SQL Server Reporting Services Service" is started.
I would like to configure SSRS on SharePoint Central Admin for my SSRS reports.
Please help me, how to get Reporting Services Add-in the SharePoint Central Admin.
Thanks in advance

Hope you have followed all steps below:

Is one application pool preferred for all sharepoint service applications(

is one application pool preferred for all SharePoint service applications ?
I have a three-tier architected SP 2013 small farm (NLT, 2 wfe, 1 app server, 1 db server). All services will be use (Secure Store,Service Application, Managed Metadata Service Application, Search Service Application,User Profile Service Application,App
Management Service Application,Workflow Manager,Excel Service Application,BI Reporting Service Application,Power Pivot Service,Performance Point,Visio Services,BCS Service application)
I am unclear on the following:
which servers should host which service ? and why ?
Is one application pool account preferred for all SP service Applications ? if not which service applications should be logically group ? and why ?

Creating additional application pools requires more RAM memory. About 100-150 MB per app pool. But it also keeps things happening in one app pool from affecting another. So normally you create additional app pools when you want to maintain
higher service levels on one component versus another. For example. Let's assume that your service levels designate that you could survive a 3 hour outage of Search but that Managed metadata must be constantly available with minimal downtime. Then
you would put Search and MMS in separate App Pools. Otherwise there is no real advantage to splitting them up.
Services that are accessed directly by user request, like Search Query, Managed metadata, user profile should go on the Web Front ends. Services that process heavier intermittent loads are normally placed on a dedicated application server to keep them
from affecting overall performance, for example Excel Services. But its more of an art form rather than a science and depends a lot on your performance needs, your hardware, and your usage.

Dependencies on the App Management Service in SharePoint 2013

Looking for a listing of services or features in SharePoint 2013 that are dependent on the App Management Service Application being provisioned...
Anyone have a good list of what those are or could provide me one here? I want to make sure i'm not overlooking something as i weigh the pro's and con's of setting this service up.

I'm not aware of a list of other services that are dependant on the App Management service.
My understanding is there aren't other out of the box services that depend on it. Update: Good news, I'm wrong :)
The Hybrid topologies (Search, BCS, Duet) between SharePoint Server 2013 and SharePoint Online do require the app management service so if you're condsidering these then you'll want to configure it.
If you're not using apps for SharePoint then you probably do not have a need to configure the service at this time.
