WORKFLOW IN gos

Hi,
I have created a workflow for Project Approval which is triggered by custom t-code. So it is not using any standard BUS no.
Now my requirement is after triggering a WF by custom t-code...I want to see wf log in GOS of cj20n t-code.
How to attach a workflow in GOS to display log.
Thank you..Pls reply ASAP

I think for this if the GOS is already there you have to find out what is the Business Object the GOS is referencing. Once you have got it you have to create a method in your workflow that instantaiate this Business Object using the correct key. This will create an entry in SWW_WI2OBJ.
Thanks

Attachment and workflow overview - GOS

Hello All,
I have a new custom BO. No delegation to another object.
And new applications using this BO.
I want to include the "Generic Object Services" -> Workflow Overview & attachment
and display this on the transaction just like VA0x to display the WF.
I need a starting point!
I have document Generic Object Services (BC-SRV-GBT).
Not sure how to add this functionality.
Please help asap.
Thanks & Regards,
Sangeeta

Hello Sangeeta,
I am too facing the same kind of issue.
I developed a workflow and linked the BO ZBUS2081. This is sub type of standard BO BUS2081. I am using the custom event INVOICEBLOCKED to trigger the workflow. The workflow is triggered propely when the invoce is created (with block) thru MIRO and I can see the workflow in SWEL or SWI6 or SWI14.
But, the workflow is not listed in the services for objects button of the invoice display using MIR4.
If I use the standard event 'BLOCKEDQUANT' as starting event, the workflow is triggered and I can view it in services for object.
In the table SWW_WI2OBJ has all entries about the workflow triggered using standard event or custom event.
How can I make the services for object in invoice list my workflow that was triggered using custom evet?
I tried this solution but, still not working.
Can you please tell me what needs to be done to make this working?
Regards

GOS - Start Workflow only if not already started

Hello friends,
Have a workflow that is started by an event. Now, there is a need to allow the users to start the same Workflow from GOS as well. Is there any way to prevent the GOS from starting the Workflow if an incomplete workflow instance exists for the object? User training is not an option
TIA.

Ramki Maley.
Cross posted in SAP-WUG & SDN.

Hello Ramki,
You probably mean the standard transaction so the following is not an option, but...
It is possible to call a GOS service as follows ('view attachment' service as an example)
FORM invoice_image.
DATA: ls_gos TYPE borident.
ls_gos-objtype = c_liv_etype.
ls_gos-objkey = g_liv_key.
CALL FUNCTION 'GOS_EXECUTE_SERVICE'
    EXPORTING
      ip_service       = 'VIEW_ATTA'
      is_object        = ls_gos
      ip_no_commit     = ' '
      ip_popup         = 'X'
      ip_rwmod         = 'E'
    EXCEPTIONS
      execution_failed = 1
      OTHERS           = 2.
ENDFORM.                    "invoice_image
So the option would be to put an additional button on the toolbar and only make it active when there is no active workflow.
I know, I know. Not very good idea

FIPP document flow missng

Dear all,
I have workflow with BO FIPP everything is working fine.But a peculiar thing araising.When document is created from workflow side workflow log is showing correct.But in FB03 document flow unable to see nothing.But when we post it its showing.But when it is in parked state then document flow -->workflow nthing is displaying.Please suggest on this.
Thanks in advance.

1) You can see entries in SWI6 - same is called from GOS to get workflows for the document
2) You can see workflows from GOS when they are posted
3) You have done the binding of _EVT_OBJECT to FIPP Object in the WF
4) So we have a link of the BO from transaction to Workflow
AND still we do not see them from FB03!!!
Quite baffaling!!!!
Just ensure that FIPP container element (the one you have named as FIPP) is of type BO and Refers to the actual FIPP Business Object (in the definition) and not any Z subtype (which you may have defined) which is delegated to FIPP
Apart from this, you can check if there has been any enhancement done for FB03/GOS Functionality which is causing parked workflows from being excluded from the list.

How we can acess GOS to pop up automatically to user from workflow is our a

we plan to implement invoice verification workflow to start when an invoice is scanned and placed in holder in OAWD. So that workflow will start from then onwards with SAP archive link.
Please let us know how we can link scanner and SAP Archive link so that we can place the scanned document directly in to OAWD. how we open the image automatically when approver or AP clerk execute the workitem.
The process we want to follow is
1. Scan document and place in OAWD
2 Workflow is started based on the document type of Archive link( we want to use BKPF)
3 AP clerk receives workitem and execute it. APclerk see the transaction code FV60 to enter document and image of the scan automatically
4 AP clerk fill the document and park the document.
5 Workitem is sent to approver based on the rule specified
6 Approver execute the transaction invoice iamge is opened and sap document is displayed.
7 Approver check both image and sap docuemnt and take decision
8 Approver approves document , sap document is posted and ready for payment
9 If rejected go back to AP clerk.
Here issue is when user or approver execute the workitem ,how we can open image automatically along with sap screen.
or how we can acess GOS to pop up automatically to user from workflow is our another isssue

Hi,
It is possible to launch the stored image as soon as workitem is executed. You will need to maintain the archivelink customization to display stored document. Check the following link
[Displaying Stored Document|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_erp2005vp/helpdata/en/4f/993685446d11d189700000e8322d00/content.htm]
Hope this helps

Create event in GOS obj to trigger workflow while attaching data with GOS

Hello experts,
It is a little bit urgent.
I have a scenario. We have to attach documents to SAP application using GOS. These documents can be edited also.
Now second part is that when we attach the document or edit the document, the document should be send with the work item "when we attach the document".
The first part of the scenario is completed and working fine. The second part of the scenario is causing problem. I have checked the various options but none of them are proving helpful.
There is an option in GOS toolbar to send the documents through workflow but that also asks for the related workflow.
I was trying to create an event for GOS object (Z object not a subtype of any other object) which can trigger the workflow automatically when the attachment are created and edited but can not go further with it as am not so strong in workflow. I ahve just created the event. Do I need to write some code for the event?
I request you to kindly help me either in creating this event which will trigger the workflow (whole process) or any other method to do the same.
Thank you all in advance.

Hello Arghadip,
Thank you for replying so early. The table point is very helpful but about the batch job I do not get it. I think the second option is good trigerring event on updation of table. But again I do not know how to do it as I have customized object so have to create the event from the scratch and that, sir, is my main problem.
Kindly help.
Thank you

Generic object services (GOS) - Start workflow box is allways empty

Dear colleagues,
i have installed a brand new IDES ERP 6.0 successfully but when entering a number of standard transactions like mm02, va03, fb03 etc and trying to execute the GOS toolbox, I can never start any workflow. I click on the 'start workflow' button of the GOS-toolboy but the selection box is allways empty. Did I miss anything? Since there are so many BOR objects that apply to the objects of the standard transactions, there should be at least something to start. For example BOR BUS1001 (material master): When in MM02, why does the GOS-toolbox for workflows not show the related workflows that use BUS1001?
Thank you very much for your answers
Best regards
Daniel

Udo,
You should start a new discussion - you'll get more responses.
Anyhoo, to make a workflow appear in the GOS 'start workflow' list, just follow these simple rules:
- confirm which BOR object is involved in your transaction (eg BUS1001006 for MM03)
- make sure that the BOR object is a mandatory input of your workflow
- make sure that there are no other mandatory inputs
- make sure that the workflow (WS*) is set to 'General Task' (nb this is client dependent)
Once all these things are done, refresh the buffer (SWU_OBUF) and it should work.
cheers
Paul

Hello Andrés,
Thank you for replying. The main problem is starting the workflow. For that I need to create an event and that is my biggest trouble. I have seen the object IFSAP already. There are no events in it and as such I have created my custom object as super type.
So I need to create the event from scratch.
Hope my requirement is clear.
Thank you.

Create GOS attachment of BUS2012 in workflow

Hi all,
I've developped an workflow for approval of purchase order. When the approver has rejected the purchase order I create a document from template to describe the the reason for rejection. Now I want to attach in the workflow this document with rejection reason to the GOS of the purchase order (BUS2012). I've an container operation to assign the document to the adhoc_attach / adhoc_object, but this is only for the workflow instance. I want that if somebody else outside the workflow displays the purchase order can see the document with rejection reason by using the GOS attachmentlist. How can I assign the document with rejection reason to the GOS of BUS2012 in the workflow?

Workflow not visible through GOS

Hi,
I created a workflow for sales order using the object BUS2032 ( I created ZBUS2032 and then using delegation i linked BUS202) and events to trigger the workflow. However when I view the sales order GOS I am not able to see the workflow.
Any Ideas.

My workflow is not listed in the GOS (Services for object)

Hello Experts,
I developed a workflow and linked the BO ZBUS2081. This is sub type of standard BO BUS2081. I am using the custom event INVOICEBLOCKED to trigger the workflow. The workflow is triggered propely when the invoce is created (with block) thru MIRO and I can see the workflow in SWEL or SWI6 or SWI14.

Hi Siva
Thanks for marking this thread answered.....We are glad that your issue was solved :-) ....... But I do agree with Rick Bakker, the first correct answer was by Paul Bakker and I had just elaborated on that.
Please mark the first correct answer as the "green" one.

Generic Object Services (GOS) and workflow overview

Delete/display/copy attachments in the workflow

Hello,
I'm creating a workflow which contains a pdf attachment. This attachment is created or inserted with the start form.
During the workflow I want to delete the attachment and include a new one. Another thing I want to do is attach the pdf document to an other BOR object.
The thing what I have done so far but didn't work:
I created an activity which moves the attachment to a method so I could work or change the attachment. I know their is an automatic binding with the container '_Attach_Objects' but I couldn't see the contents in the executed method when I read it out on the way below
Here a part of the method to get the content of the '_Attach_Object' container.
BEGIN_METHOD DISPLAY_ATTACHMENT CHANGING CONTAINER.
DATA attach TYPE SWC_OBJECT OCCURS 0,
ZSWC_OBJECT TYPE TABLE OF SWC_OBJECT.
swc_get_table container '_ATTACH_OBJECTS' attach.
SWC_GET_TABLE CONTAINER 'ZSWC_OBJECT' ZSWC_OBJECT.
BREAK-POINT.
END_METHOD.
With the binding SWC_GET_TABLE I don't get the appropriate values in the container.
How do I get the contents of the container in the method so I could delete the attachment on a nice way or to copy the content to a new BOR Object?
Kind regards,
Richard Meijn

The reason why I want to change/delete the attachment is that I create a workflow for a signature registration. The signature is on the pdf form. The signature is checked by employees and if the signature is not correct the workflow goes back to requestor to give in a new pdf document.
The first pdf document has to be removed from the workflow and from the document storage. If the signature is correct I want to copy the attached document to a business object with a GOS object.
Kind regards,
Richard Meijn

AP Invoices/Credit Memo Workflow process using Optura

Hi,
We have a VIM tool Optura that we have implemented for our Workflow approval process where in the invoices/credit memos get parked, then go through a workflow approval process and finally get posted. These invoices/credit memos at the time when they are parked have attachments in them. The issue is that the when the credit memos get posted we loose the attachments that were present in them but it works just fine when we post invoices. Any idea as to what could be happening?
Any help will be approeciated.
Thanks,
ALAM.

Can you please explain where the attachment is getting disappeared?
Is it in the attachment link of the Tcode of Credit memo or inside Workitem.
If it is workitem then attachment is not properly binded from Workflow container to Task container.
If it a Tcode you have to write ABAP Code to populate in the GOS of the Tcode.
Thanks

Workflow mail attachment error

Hi,
We have configured HTTP Content Repository to store GOS attachments in IXOS external system, in stead of storing in SAP DB SOFFCONT1. We are able to attach files manually using GOS functionality provided in SAP applications like Purchase order, Invoice, Accounting document and also SAP mails. We have noticed that all attachments are storing in IXOS content repository also able to open and view the files.
We are also inserting OTF links via workflow automation mails and storing them in IXOS content repository, but while clicking on the link instead of opening file it is giving error.
If I modfiy configuration to store the same OTF link in SAP DB table SOFCCONT1 it is storing and able to open the file, but it is not opening when I route then to IXOS content repository.
Please let us know your thoughts.

Balaji Naravula

Hi,
This issue has been resolved by debugging the entire functionality.
Here is the solution :
The method CONVERT_TO_SOFM of class Z_ED_DISPLAY_IDOC is not passing the file size to the function module SO_OBJECT_INSERT. Hence the file parameters not getting stored properly in the target system IXOS. Code has been modified in method CONVERT_TO_SOFM as below and it is working fine.
Get the folder ID
CALL FUNCTION 'SO_FOLDER_ROOT_ID_GET'
    EXPORTING
      region    = 'B'
    IMPORTING
      folder_id = l_folder_id
    EXCEPTIONS
      OTHERS    = 1.
IF sy-subrc NE 0.
    RETURN.
ENDIF.
Get the CustomerPO number*
READ TABLE me->git_edid4
        WITH KEY segnam = 'E1EDK01'
        INTO lv_edid4.
IF sy-subrc EQ 0.
    lv_e1edk01 = lv_edid4-sdata.
ENDIF.
lv_object_data-objnam   = 'SOFM'.
lv_object_data-file_ext = 'PDF'.
CONCATENATE 'Customer PO '
              lv_e1edk01-belnr
         INTO lv_object_data-objdes
    SEPARATED BY space.
Insert Start - added below line to rectify file size transfer to target system*
lv_object_data-objlen = l_filesize.
Insert End*
