Workflow Approbation - Accessing and Editing Approve/Reject state

Hello
I'm creating a custom workflow in order to manage mass approbations. I have used the Approval and Multi Approval workflows to make my own one.
This work great except on one point: I can't use the standard approbation/reject buttons of the end user approvals list as i wish. I didn't find out in the workItem of type Approval where is set the accept or reject value.
I have seen in documentation that there are action and confirm attributes in WorkItem List View attribute but i don't see how to use it as i already have a view in use. I am using a custom workflow variable which hold the value of the result. This work except that i have to customize too the End User Approvals List to change this variable.
I guess there is somewhere an easy way to know about the state of an Approval WorkItem but dunno how to access it easily.
If you have got any idea, please tell me!
Grtz,
Adrien

Thanks for your answer.
I agree with you but the problem is that the variable i'm looking for isn't in the WorkItem View (or i just didn't find it out).
I am looking for the location of the variable which indicate to the requestor the result of his approbation request (accepted or rejected) in order to make a custom report form. This way my requestor who make approbation for severals different users at the same time will have a report telling him which request was accepted or rejected.
Hope this make much sense.

Hi All,
Requirement: To send a mail with Approve & Reject buttons to outlook inbox.
Approach: I have used the user-decision step in the workflow and the approve, reject buttons are displayed . As far as solution in SAP inbox is concerned, it is solved.
However the requirement is to show the mail with the buttons in the outlook mail.
Resolution Required For: to show the mail with the buttons in the outlook mail. I am new to workflows sending mail to outlook inbox. Is there any way to do this using ABAP developments.
Thanks for your time.

Hi,
If you are on ECC 5.0 or above, you can use the Extended Notif. for achieving this.
How are you getting the Outlook mail ?. If you already have Extn.Notif, then do the following :
1. In Transaction SWNCONFIG,for your Scenario and Category,
in the Subscription Basis Data -->Subscription Settings,
Set the parameter SHOW_ACTION_DECISION_AS as "LINK"
This will give you the options of your user decision as LInks in Outlook mail.
There is lot of material in this forum for Extended Notif. if you search.
Hope this helps.

Why doesn't Photoshop touch ask for access to local photos on my iPad so I can grant access and edit?

Why doesn't Photoshop touch ask for access to local photos on my iPad so I can grant access and edit?

That's odd. Does this mean that you want to have the request or that you can't see the photos even though you enabled it over the privacy/photos?
If you enable it - it's not necessary to get the request. If you want the request the safest way to get it back is to reset the privacy settings by going to iPad settings/General/Reset/Reset Location & Privacy
thanks,

How i can access and edit the table of database(.mdb) file through Labview

Dear sir,
I want to access and edit the table of database(.mdb) file through Labview and it should save.
please tell me how i can do it.
i am waiting for reply.
regards
Rajendra

there are options aplenty for this. First off, do you have the database connectivity toolset? If so, You can do it from there. Following the examples in labview. Or you can do a search for ADO or access database, and find plenty of VIs that can do this.

How can I share the FCPX library so another user on the same iMac can access and edit it?

I need to let another user access our Library file to add some subtitles to a video I'm editing.
This is a breeze with iMovie now, as I moved the Library to the Users/Shared folder and changed permissions so the other user can read+write.
I tried the same with FCPX and then tried to launch FCPX from the other user's profile, but it wouldn't work saying it needs permissions, even though I did the thing with permissions.
After some playing around, I broke it and had to use that Preference File eraser because the Library stopped working even on my account.
Is there a way to ensure the library can be accessed by both of us, on the same iMac? (Note: I was logged out while trying to get the second user to work).

Thanks.
If it's in the Shared folder, then for whatever reason FCP is busted and won't work?
Have a 1TB Fusion drive, wouldn't this make editing stuff slower if it's an external drive?

Can you access and edit shared contacts from directory from home?

We are interested in setting up the directory for shared contact for our sales people. Once we set this service up, is there anyway that they can access it and update it from a location outside of the company like home? Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Sounds like you've paid twice. Ouch.
Log in at the Apple Store (using the ID you've used for the purchase) and review your "Software Download History".
This is where you can download any update.
Be sure to use the correct installer for your OS (there are two installers in the Package).
It should be installed into HD/System/Library/QuickTime folder and be version number 6.4.1
The installer does have two different versions and maybe you've picked the wrong one?

Access and edit class from plugin element in Edge

I'm creating a graph using d3 in Edge Animate. I can't seem to access the classes I apply to my svg elements.
For example:
I have a symbol on my Stage called graph, with the class d3graph
In my d3 code, I create a svg that I put in my graph symbol and add text to it:
var svg = d3.select(".d3graph").append("svg").attr('width':100).attr('height':100);
svg.append('text').attr('class', 'mytext');
I've tried
sym.$('mytext').someAction();
but that doesn't work. When inspecting the webpage in my browser, I can see that the names of the classes I've applied to my Edge symbols changes, but not the names of the svg element classes:
the class applied to text remains mytext
while the class applied to graph is now Stage_graph_id d3graph
How can I access elements with the class mytext in Edge?

Hi, NYG-vibeke-
Try referring to your custom classes with a # in front of it.
sym.$("#mytext")...
http://www.adobe.com/devnet-docs/edgeanimate/api/current/index.html
There's a section that says "work with elements directly."
Hope that helps,

Can i access and edit photos direct from finder rather than import and duplicate in iphoto?

Hi, I have tens of thousands of photos so would rather not duplicate them in two places and eat into my storage. Is it possible to access photos saved in My Pictures direct from iPhoto without having to import them directly (and therefore duplicate them) into iPhoto? Any help appreciated! Thank you

Yes but you don't want to.
It's called running a Referenced Library and you can read about the issues and pitfalls in this thread:
https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3062728?tstart=0
Frankly the better way to work is to import them to iPhoto and let iPhoto copy the files. Live and work with it for a while and when you're content trash your pre-existing filing system - it's of no use to you any way. If you use iPhoto (or similar apps, like Aperture, Lightroom etc) you access the photos via those apps and not the Finder - the point of using a Photo Manager after all.
If you have a folder tree or pre-existing organisation structure you can recreate it quite quickly in iPhoto. For instance:
If you want to duplicate your Folder Tree in iPhoto:
Start at the bottom of the hierarchy and drag a folder of images to the Album Heading in iPhoto. The pics will be imported and an Album of the same name created.
You can then create the Enclosing Folders in the iPhoto Window (File -> New Folder) and drag the Album to it. Folders can contain other Folders (Nested Folders) and Albums.
However, is your folder system date based? Then this form of organisation is a bit pointless in iPhoto when Smart Albums or the Calendar tool (Click on the wee magnifying glass in the Search Box) mean you can find the photos taken on any day, month or year at a click. With Smart Albums it's easy to find photos from specific range - say, June 3 to August 25, 2009 etc.
If your folder system is theme based - Xmas pics, Birthday pics etc, then you'll find Keywords are much more flexible, and can be used in conjunction with other criteria for making Smart Albums and searches.

In approval workflow, can we have one action in which item can be review and approve/reject

Hello,
I have created approval workflow using SPD.
While sending notification to approver, we need to mention link for viewing : [%TaskProcess:Item Title%][%Variable:InternetLink%] and for approve/reject : [%current task: form_URN%]
So is it possible to have one link, where reviewer can review document and approve or reject it. he/she should not have to go again to mail and click on another link.
Thanking you in advance.

Can you access files and edit them from different computers in Creative Cloud?

I want to understand the workflow we can have. We have three computers and would like to access and edit the same files in Creative Cloud. Can you do this? I understand I may have to purchase two licenses but will this give everyone access to the same files and able to edit and upload files.
We do this in Dropbox now but with Creative Cloud is sounds like all I can do is share a file for them to comment on, not edit?

Hi Olivia,
With Creative Cloud, file editing comes in via downloading Adobe applications with a Creative Cloud membership. While you cannot edit within Creative Cloud, you can share files with your coworkers which can then be downloaded, edited in an Adobe application, and reuploaded to the Cloud.
Be aware that although you can have two computers activated on the same Creative Cloud membership, you cannot use the same application on two computers simultaneously. A Creative Cloud membership is for one user that can be used on one or more computers.
You may want to look into the Creative Cloud Team Ready, that targets work environments like yours. You can read more about Team Ready here.
Hope this helped clarify your questions!

Functionality of OM statuses Active, Planned Submitted Approved & Rejected

Hi gurus,
I want to understand the functionality & concept of the statuses in Tx PO13, PO10 etc
We see
1.Active
2.Planned
3.Submitted
4.Approved
5.Rejected
my question is regarding a requirement.
We need if some object is created that should be submitted for approval and in this case e-mails shud be triggered for approval to superiors. Once that is approved the created object shud exist as a valid object in system, otherwise should exist in system but not as an active object and cannot not be used for assigning holders. I mean should not be a valid object.
I want to know if these statuses will help doing it with work-flows and can we restrict the user to use only one of the five statuses..
Pls advise ...
Regards,
Anil Kumar

Hi,
Status identifies the current standing that an object or infotype record has within an organizational plan. Status also affects the type of editing you can do. There are five statuses available:
Active
Planned
Submitted
Approved
Rejected
Objects with different status can appear in the same plan version. The active objects could represent current operations at your firm, and the planned objects could represent changes you plan to make, for example, adding a new department or new position.
Use
You must assign a status to every object and infotype record you create. However, you do not need to use all the statuses. Many users choose only to use active status.
How you apply status to objects and infotype records in Organizational Management, depends on the method you use to maintain an organizational plan u2013 Detail Maintenance, Simple Maintenance, or Structural Graphics.
Status attributes:
Active
Indicates that an object is currently operable. You have unrestricted activities u2013 you can create, change, display, delimit, delete and list when using active objects.
Planned
Indicates that an object is proposed or anticipated, but not currently operable. You can create, change, display, delimit, delete and list when using planned objects.
Submitted
Indicates that an object has been submitted for review and subsequent approval/rejection. You cannot create objects with submitted status. Nor can you make changes.
Approved
Indicates that an object, previously sumitted for review, is accepted or authorized. By changing the status to active, you can edit the object (create, change, display, delimit, delete and list).
Rejected
Indicates that an object is rejected or turned down. You can only display objects with rejected status. However, you can change the status to planned so that you can work with the object again.
There are two ways you can change the status applied to objects and infotype records, in Organizational Plan:
Run the report RHAKTI00 (Change Object Status) for selected objects or infotype records
Change the status of objects and infotype records one at a time in Detail Maintenance
It is not possible to change the status of objects or infotype records in Structural Graphics or Simple Maintenance.

How do we incorpoarte 'Approval/Reject' notifictaion in BPEL?

Like in Oracle Workflows, how do I incorporate approval/reject notifications?
Using BPEL process, I am trying to send an email notification to the approver.
The email should have 2 buttons, 'Approve' and 'Reject'. Based on the approvers selection,
the BPEL process should choose the conditional flow.
Here my question is, how do I incorporate the email with these 2 buttons.
And how do I incorporate the conditional flow?
In Oracle workflow this can be easily achieved.
Please point me to the related documents/procedures.
Thanks,
Bala.

Hi Sandra,
For your code logic, I1129 with inactive X should be included to get the list of SC which are in awaiting approval or may be approved but without follow on doc.
But could you check if you get any message in RZ20 after the follow on doc is created and it becomes inactive ?
may be you can check the SAP note: 1499352 - SRM Transfer: Redesign, bug fixes

Resizing and editing Components Design - Some problems and questions at CQ5

Hello everyone,
I'm building a website application following the http://dev.day.com/docs/en/cq/current/howto/website_quick.html guide (using the cq 5.5). The thing is, when I drop an image component on the site and drop some image into this one, the component resize my image. Even if I double click the image component and change the size, there's kind of a "maximum" size. I don't wanna change this one by css properties because if my user change the picture or drop a new one in the page, the change will not be applied to this new one.
So, my question is, there's a way to configure the component to get the size i'm inputing on the dialog, without "limits"? Below some images of what i'm doing.
The second problem I found is with the "text & image component". I've inserted the "right" alignment for the image in the styles tab, but the image stays on top of the text, and there's nothing I can do to solve this in the input dialog. Don't wanna use the css for the same reason that I've explained before.
All the components are imported from fundation.
So, there is something I can do to change the design of my components?
Thanks in advance,
Matheus de Oliveira.

For the issue you are having with the maximum size there are couple of possiblity.
The firstpossiblity is that your CSS is enforcing a maximum size. So to check this take the src from you img tag and put in a browser and see if you get the original size or not. If you get the right size when viewing the image URL than you do in the page than the issue is CSS. Depending on how you have designed your site's CSS there might be any number reasons it's limiting the image size but whatever the reason it's an implementation question.
The second option is that design mode of the image component. The default install has a maximum image size set in design mode of the image component. Switch your page to design mode and verify that the maximum image size is not set in the design dialog.
A final option is that the DAM is enforcing the maximum size. In CQ 5.5 the default configuration is to create a web ready rendition with a maximum height and width fo 1200 x 1200. The out of the box components and the out of the box image rendering script will use this web ready rendition if it is present rather than the original image.
To check if this is your problem do the following:
Go to the workflow model console and edit the Update Dam Asset workflow.
Delete the step in the workflow named Web Ready Rendition
Upload a new image that is larger than 1200 x 1200 to the DAM
Try and use that image in an image component - it should display at the original size.

Importing and Editing skins

I'm trying to modify the Book and Topic icons in my TOC. I created a skin for a different project which I was able to access and edit through the Project Set-up. I've copied the folder to my new project and can select the skin when I generate output. However, it doesn't appear in the skins folder in Project Set-up so I can't select it for editting. When I try the import option, I'm told it already exists in the project. What am I doing wrong?

Hi Thomas
Here's the deal. Think of a RoboHelp project as an ecosystem where many segments combine to create a larger whole. Or perhaps like the gears used to make a watch work. By simply copying files into a specific location, you cannot expect RoboHelp to become aware they are there. They usually have to be manipulated by RoboHelp so its internal structures can be updated.
That's what it's sounding like you did. You copied one or more files into a location you believe RoboHelp is looking at and you are frustrated because they aren't appearing in the project.
I rather like John's idea of adding them to the gallery. So you might try clearing things out, then using the approach to add the desired skin to your gallery. Then see if it becomes available in the other project.
Cheers... Rick
