Workflow in Content Management

I have created forms using XMLFormsBuilder tool to put in content.
a) Now how do I set up step-by-step workflow with approval process before the content is actually published?
b) where and how do I provide Publishing Date, Archive Date and Offline Date for the content?
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Winston

Hi Winston,
for a) see http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/db/a4bf4db1d011d5993800508b6b8b11/frameset.htm and especially "Setting Up the Approval Process".
b) I don't understand what you want to achieve?! Sounds a bit like you'd think of time-dependent publishing in parallel?
Hope it helps

  • Workflow for content management

    Hi,
    We're evaluating Oracle Portal at the moment.
    Is it possible for the content changes to go thru a workflow? (author > editor > editor-in-chief)
    I know Portal can integrate with Oracle Workflow, but that's on the application side, not the management side.
    regards,
    eric

    Hi,
    I have heard that in the next release of Portal (the version that will ship with 9iAS v2), you will be able to set up content management workflow. Perhaps one of the developers can provide confirmation of this.

  • Error while trying to edit in Bea Portal Administration Content Management

    Hi,
    we are exploring the weblogic portal administration 9.2 and we encounter an exception when editing a content in the Content Management feature. We use the weblogic default workflow, we create a user attached to a group, add that group to a role, then delegate the edit and view capability of a content node in the Content Management to that role, we login using the respective user, check out the content, try to edit the property but then the exception occurs.
    It says "A Repository Exception was thrown: User does not have view privileges on the node"
    the detail exceptio on the property page was:
    "javax.servlet.jsp.JspException: Could not find a node at the key: nodeReqAttr
    at com.bea.jsptools.content.node.ViewPropertyTag.doStartTag(ViewPropertiesTag.java374)
    at jsp_servlet._contenet._node._nodeselected._properties._listpropertiescheckout._jsp_tag46 ...."
    Could u help us what step we went wrong, because we previously try this in the WLP 8.1.4 portal administration the exact same step but never encounter this error before.
    And is there anyway I can atteched screenshots to help better explain this problem?
    Thank you for your help.

    Hi,
    You have to set your activex control properly. then only edit locally in KM will work.
    Also check the below wiki

  • How to create a built in Content Management System

    Hey guys, I've found myself in a spot of trouble.
    My client commissioned me to create for him a website for his new restaurant (Paul's Place). I built him a responsive site using another website I found online (www.megnarestaurant.com) as a guideline. The problem is though that the client plans on changing the menu about every month and wants to be able to change it himself. I could teach him how to edit the files and add new ocntent himself (It's not even that hard after all) but that just doesn't seem like the right option.
    Instead, I want to create a built in content management system that doesn't require a third party website or software like Wordpress or Joomla. I was thinking about having a page called "www.paulsdiner.com/login" where the client can log in using a username and password and can then change the content of the website.
    My menu page is pretty much the same as the one found on "www.megnarestaurant.com/starters.html". I'm also using gloriafoods as an ordering system meaning that the client will have to change it on both the website itself and on the actual gloriafoods website (Not really an issue).
    I want the client to be able to edit the menu boxes and add new boxes along with being able to add a new menu section (Like in the Jump Menu) which follows the template of the existing Jump Menu.
    I'm making this website as a favour to my friend so I'm not being paid. As a point of reference (And future bragging and maybe some innocent blackmail ) how much do you guys think the creator of "www.megnarestaurant.com" charged his client?

    Have a look at Perch
    Perch - The really little content management system (CMS) - Perch
    It requires a php/mysql database to run but the tables and set up are all automated through the Perch set up files - you just need a server that runs php/mysql. It works on the same principals as the one Ben suggested but its a lot cheaper for a one off site - however if you intend to build more CMS driven sites the one Ben suggested might be more financially viable in the long run.
    The nice thing about Perch CMS is it fits in with your workflow unlike Wordpress/Joomla where you have to jump through hoops to change anything.
    Plus I think you can take Perch for a spin before buying (or at least you could when I was exploring CMSs) - you can't with Power CMS. I never investigated Power CMS beacuse I would not buy something before trying it. It looks good but it might be a bit dated as it doesnt seem to be in continuous develoment. Perch is in a constant state of development and the guys are working to make it better on a daily basis.

  • Content Management using WLP Vs using a Third Party CM Tool

    Hi All,
    In our Application we have a Workflow which we earlier implemented using WLI and stored the Content in File System ( The Dis advantages with this is no versioning capability , hard to manage the Content etc..)
    Now we are plannning to use WLP's Content Management Capabilities.
    Does the Library Services support a workflow ?? Does Workflow Definitions conform to any standard ?? (Like BPEL etc)
    The Content we have is a set of forms ( XML Based) and are unique for each user Task . Might be using the goal technology to capture the data from the Users..
    I would like to know the pros and cons of using WLP Content Management Features vs Storing the Content in a Full fledged CM tool and accessing it from the Portlets Deployed.
    Features we are looking for are..
    Versioning , Search Capabilities , History info
    Thanks

    How do I create plan.xml for every env Im not sure what you mean. Use vi/notepad if you want! See the section 'Using an Existing Deployment Plan to Configure an Application' in the link. You simply need to create this plan once with the value you want and you can use the same one with a different path value(the one you want to change) for each environment. Whether you want to create a template plan.xml whose value is replaced by an ant build is upto you.
    Plan.xml is similar to a WLST script, you'd only need to parameterise the actual value you want to use as the path(and you'd have to run both for every deployment) - Im not sure this value is accessible over WLST though..

  • Out of the box porlets for Content Management with BEA Portal

    I am looking at BEA Portal for a simple Intranet site with some basic content management system capabilities. I would like to implement this without the use of a third party tool and wanted to know if there are any open source or out of the box BEA portlets/web-apps with basic CMS capabilities beyond what has been shown in the Portal tutorials around CMS. From doing the tutorials, I have learned how to manage content, and how to build a site from scratch to access the content using the <cm:> tags. However, without additional third party products such as Documentum or Interwoven, is there any free BEA/open source portlets to:
    - Configure exposure of this content in a runtime framework? (ie content manager can expose new content from the repository by a configurable admin GUI, place where this content is on the page)
    - Allow for a simple approval workflow where content that gets added to the repository by user A has to be approved by user B before automatically exposing?
    Interested to know if custom portal type development is the only way to do these kind of simple functions, or third party product.

    Hi,
    Did you have a chance to look into WebLogic Portal 8.1 SP3? Check out the new Library Services features, which includes versioning and simple approval:
    http://e-docs.bea.com/wlp/docs81/adminportal/help/CM_MAN_LifecycleOV.html
    We also provide a few ootb portlets that allow users to interact with the CM system. Let us know if you have additional questions.

    Hi,
    I hope you know the process of modeling a workflow. If not follow the tutorial in the help document:
    http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw2004s/helpdata/en/fb/135962457311d189440000e829fbbd/frameset.htm
    If you have already done some workflow modeling then you can proceed as follows:
    1. Check for any standard events. Go to transaction SWEL and see if there are any events triggered by the standard transaction. If yes then you can build your own workflow for that event.
    If there are no standard events then you can raise them from either of the following based on the availability of the same:
    2. Are change documents active? Once you perform the transaction go to transaction SE11 and view the contents of the table CDHDR for the entries with your name as the creator. If the transaction writes a change document then you can trigger off a workflow through an event which is linked to the change document object. For more details go here:
    http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw2004s/helpdata/en/c5/e4aeef453d11d189430000e829fbbd/frameset.htm
    3. If the transaction has a status management built in then you can raise through this as well. For more information see this:
    http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw2004s/helpdata/en/c5/e4aed5453d11d189430000e829fbbd/frameset.htm
    4. If you are not lucky in either of the steps below then you need to implements a User Exit or a BADI and raise an event through the function module: SWE_EVENT_CREATE.
    Hope this helps,

    hi,
    goto admin applet -> user admin --> Add --->enter deatils of User like name/full name/password/corm password/e mail addrsss(This is for the workflow purpose).Suer local automatically selected either Local/ Global .
    Then goto next TAB ROles in which you have select the roles (Admin/Contributor/guest/reviewer/sysmanager) select any one of the roles. if you select the admin you would get the adminstartion tab in the left navigation. So basing on the role you have selected you would get the permission to access content server.
    Finish close that window open the new window http://server ip/idc
    give the username/password
    i think this would solve your problem.

  • EP60 SR1 + KM problems - Content management not working

    I have the above system installed and content management isn't working. It is installed on Windows 2003. The portal was installed and seems to me to be OK (SAP have another view - more later). Into this we installed KM. This doesn't work. When I carried out the post install checks "checking the KM Content iView" (page 48 of the install guide) I got the following error:
    <b>com.sapportals.wcm.repository.InvalidUriException: Invalid RID: No repository manager found: /documents
    at
    com.sapportals.wcm.repository.ResourceException.fillInStackTrace(ResourceException.java:400)
    at java.lang.Throwable.(Throwable.java:195)
    at java.lang.Exception.(Exception.java:41)</b>
    There are several more pages of "at com.sap....." messages but I suspect the clue is the "No repository manager" message. I logged an OSS message who reported that there were .ERR files in the deployment directories and that in the KM repositories there should be 19 repositories but "I could find very few". I was later told he could find only 3 repositories, but I still wasn't told which ones. I reprocessed the .ERR files succesfully. This had no effect. I then reprocessed all the par and ept files that you are asked to check in the post install processing (Page 49-50 of the install guide):
    com.sap.ib.bi.*
    com.sap.km.*
    com.sap.netweaver.*
    com.sap.workflow.*
    After this when I try to access "Content Admin -> KM Content" or "System Admin -> monitoring -> KM -> Component monitor" I get the following message
    <b>Item not found
    The item you are trying to access is not available.
    Check that the name or link is correct. You might also check whether
    the associated repository is currently accessible.</b>
    I don't have the portal in front of me at the moment, but I think that in the system admin message the "/" was replaced by "/runtime".
    I mentioned earlier that SAP stated in their OSS message that the portal was installed incorrectly so we should reinstall. I am not convinced that this is the case. I feel this is fixable.
    My next move will be to reprocess every .par and ept file I can find. Any help will be gratefully received.

    Tuval,
    When I returned the decision had been made to reinstall the portal, so I didn't get chance to check out your answer. I have now reinstalled everything and this problem no longer exists.
    Thanks for your time.
    Paul.
