Workflow issue on service receipting

We currently have PO's on the system where the first line of the PO is matched to a cost centre, and line 2 to a project. Very occasionally when someone creates a service entry sheet on the 2nd line, if they do not do it correctly and it stays on the red traffic light, it throws up an error. Instead of the person receiving notification or up to their manager as we would expect, it automatically routes up to the person at the top of the organization. Any ideas why?

Hi,
I am not sure that it is the actual cause of the problem but you have to remember that the PO release is done at the Header level and not the line level and so it is not able to handle mixed POs (i.e. POs where each line item is significantly different).
I may be wrong but I am not sure that it can handle lines as different as you are indicating, I believed that it could use the data from the first line item and it then assumed that this was applicable to the whole document.
This is not a suggested reason fro the problem but more iof a case of this could be a contributing factor?

Workflow issue with Service Entry Sheets

I wonder if you can help. We currently use workflow for the approval of service entry sheets. Whenever they are approved we get an email in our workflow master account which states : The work item "Exception in Workflow for Entry Sheet 1000XXXXXX" (ID 000004014168) of type B has the status ERROR. Initiate a correction measure so that the respective workflow (ID 000004012293) can be continued.
When we go into the Service entry sheet it has a green light and there is no issue, so we just file the email. It's irritating though as we have to check everyone.
Does anyone have an idea what could be causing this or where I could start to look?

Workflow issue - on service request

I have a workflow on Service, which is to create several tasks automatically right after a Service Request is created by the user. I test and it works well as expectation by my side. The issue which is suffered by some users is that, it doesn't work when they create Service Request by the "New" button on a Service Request detail page, however, it works normally if they create Service Request by Create box on the left bar. And I also tried to login using the issue account by my side, no problems happened.
So I guess could it be any problems with user's IE setting or something? Is there any suggestion to help? Thank you in advance!
Regards, Lucy

Hi,
Thank you for your advise. I tried but still failed. Now the problem is turning to only with admin account could the workflow work well. Because I've done testing on the same pc. The result is admin account works, while user account doesn't..

Can you change a group of PO's for the same Service Receipt Approver?

When a Manager leaves/moves teams, we run a report via SQ01 to find out which PO's are still open, and manually go into each and change the Service Receipt Approver tot he new Manager's ID. This is to ensure workflow works correctly for approving the receipts. This is quite a manual process, is there a way that you can do a 'find' and 'replace' type thing?

To update my query further, I know you can use "MASS" transaction but not for a user defined field. Does anyone know of something similar for a user defined field, or how to add these to the MASS trasnaction facility? Would prefer not to have to write a program to do it.
Thanks

Troubleshooting Approval workflow issues

We are getting this message from time to time and are unsure how to troubleshoot it.
It seems as though something is changing the document, what is the best way to figure out what?
Approval on DOCUMENT NAME has ended because the item that the task process is running on was changed.

Hi Daniel,
1.What message do you get?
2. Look in the Workflow History list, eg "http://sp2013/Lists/Workflow History". Do you find any errors in there?
3. Is the user account starting the workflow correctly synchronized in the user profile database?
4. Is the user account starting the workflow different from the Worflow Manager setup account? (more info at
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/jj658588.aspx#section7)
5. Are the User Profile Service and App Management Service started? See the green frames in the screenshot below, taken from Central Administration \ Manage Services on Server.
6.Are the App Management Service Application and User Profile Service Application started? Their proxies should be started as well. See the green frames in the screenshot below, taken from
Central Administration \ Manage Services on Server.

Cannot view workflow log via Services for Object Workflow Overview

We recently had an upgrade of R3/ECC and discovered a new issue. For some reason we can no longer view workflow log via Services for Object > Workflow Overview for Material Master (transaction MM03). We get the message "There are no workflows that have already worked with this object". However, we have confirmed via SWEL and other t-codes that the workflow and log do exist. This seems to be the only object we have this issue for after the upgrade.
Anyone know what issue is and how to fix?   Or at least path to config in SPRO for "generic object services" where we can see if anything changed via upgrade for this object?
Thanks,
Matt
Edited by: Matthew Huth on Apr 22, 2008 9:23 PM

Found the solution. See OSS note 553246. This has been tested and works for us.   -Matt
Note 553246
Summary
Symptom
In the material master, the system no longer displays the attachments for the material or workflow items in the Generic Object Services.
Other terms
MM01, MM02, MM03
Reason and Prerequisites
As of Release 4.6B, business object BUS1001006 is valid for the material master. Until you have implemented Note 452424, the Generic Object Services is still published for the old BUS1001 business object. After implementing the note, all attachments, relationships, notes and workflow items that are assigned to business object BUS1001 are no longer displayed.
Instead, all new attachments are assigned to business object BUS1001006. As a result, attachments cannot exist for both systems.
For workflow items, the assignment to the business object occurs in the respective tasks. It may be very time consuming to convert the business object, depending on whether an individual subtype (assigned to BUS1001) is created.
In other words, after you implement the note, the workflow items for business object BUS1001 can no longer be displayed in the material master.
Solution
With the following correction you can call the Generic Object Services for both business objects. When it is called, the system displays a dialog box in which you can choose the required business object, that is, BUS1001 ('Material') or BUS1001006 ('Standard material').
This correction is delivered as a modification supported by SAP only. This is because the additional option means that attachments can be maintained as required in either of the business objects and users may therefore require extra training.
However, the corrections enable you to display attachments and workflow items for both business objects without the need for a major conversion; this means that you do not get the impression that these have been lost.
Alternatively, as of Release 4.70 (or Basis 6.20) you can, without making a modification, implement method ADD_OBJECTS of BAdI GOS_MULT_PUBLISH for filter attribute WF_OVERVIEW ('Workflow overview'), SRELATIONS ('Relationships') and VIEW_ATTA ('Attachment list'). The implementation should be similar to the following:
METHOD if_ex_gos_mult_publish~add_objects .
DATA:
    ls_lporb TYPE sibflporb.
READ TABLE ct_lporb INTO ls_lporb INDEX 1.
if ls_lporb-typeid = 'BUS1001006'.
    ls_lporb-typeid = 'BUS1001'.
    append ls_lporb to ct_lporb.
endif.
endmethod.

What is the workflow document web services service?

Workflow approval message is stuck in the inbox. It mail_status is mail. It's status is open.
I can see the approval message in the inbox and it is holding up other emails as it's just sitting there.
I can't see any reason for it to be sitting there so I bounced the WF Notification Mailer using:
service_components -> WorkflowMailer Service -> Stop All wait for it to stop completely then -> start all
So after starting all -> the workflow services (all 3 ) State is Activated, but there is a Big red X in the Status and the status of the workflow I'm trying to get out of the inbox is still open.
There is nothing in the logs yet so I can't see what that big red X means.
So I decide to stop and start the WF services one by one.
I stop workflow document web services service first. As soon as it starts to stop, the Worfkflow agent listener and the Workflow Mailer suddenly start up, the big red X goes away and the messages in the inbox all process.
What's up with that? What is " the workflow document web services service?" and why is it hanging my Mailer?

What is the application release?

After installing and configuring Workflow Manager and Service Bus, I'm getting 403.

I've spent the day installing SharePoint 2013 on a Windows Server 2012 environment. This server is not the domain controller. Following instructions on how to install and configure Workflow Manager and service bus, it appears although I'm following the instructions
(and I get no errors), something is not working.
If I try to go to the website that it creates in IIS
http://localhost:12291 I get a 403 error. Also if I perform the powershell query to get the port number "Get-WFFarm | ft WFMgmtHttpPort" I don't get any value returned to me.
Until I validate that the Workflow Manager is installed and working, I will not attempt to pair it to the SharePoint 2013 farm. Which hopefully makes this a Workflow Manager question not a SharePoint issue.
Can anyone offer any suggestions please? Should I even get a valid webpage if I hit localhost:12291? According to one walkthrough I've looked at I should get an XML display of workflow and security configurations.

I experienced the same two issues mentioned in this thread today.
Regarding the proper XML not appearing at <workflowhost>:12291 I was experiencing the same with an error message in Chrome saying the caller lacked read permissions, and 403 in IE. I had checked IIS, database permissions and connections and more.
All of the setup messages and status checks were a-okay. I voted Zimo's comment as helpful because it cued me in to examine the service in Central Administration - where I found there was no administrator assigned to the workflow service. As soon as that was
done, the workflow host site was brows-able.
The resolution to SharePoint Designer not offering 2013 workflows as an option was in my case that there was an additional WFE on which I had not installed the Workflow Manager
Client. This is noted with a bright yellow box in the section about configuring workflow with HTTP here:

Since purchasing the Note 3 in October i have had nothing but issues. I went through all the steps and eventually I was sent a different phone, which was working for the most part until the recent upgrade. Now I am back to the old issues, no service, it actually says not moblie network available, when everyone else in my family has coverage and are on my plan with iphones. I am missing text messages and dropping calls left and right. This is unacceptable for the cost of this phone and my service. I have did a hard reset etc. What else can I do??

Use the trackpad to scroll, thats what it was designed for. The scroll bars automatically disappear when not being used and will appear if you scroll up or down using the trackpad.
This is a user-to-user forum and most people will post on here if they have problems. You very rarely get people posting to say there update went smooth. The fact is the vast majority of Mountain Lion users will not be experiencing any major problems with the OS, or maybe with apps which are not compatible, but thats hardly Apple's fault if developers don't update their apps.

Purchase order workflow issue

Hi All,
A PO is created and rejected by a user in user decision step.The workflow will end.If the PO is changed(amount) again,the release strategy is triggered for the same user.But the workflow is not triggering.If the release strategy is for a different user,its triggering the workflow.I have used a fork inside which 1 parallel branch contains a wait for significantly changed event & another branch contains the user decision step,po release step & rejection reason scenario.
Please refer the thread below.

FV11 key combination issue - Materials - Services

Hi MM experts,
I am having problem while making the PO - Services.
We are separate POs for material & services.
FV11 key combination maintained for Materials : Plant/Vendor/Material
FV11 key combination maintained for services : Plant/Vendor/Materail Group
While making PO- Material, If select V1- Taxes conditions are coming - which is required & right
                                           If select V0 - Taxes conditions are not flowing
While making PO- Services, If select V1- Taxes conditions are coming & taxes are flowing in PO - which is required & right
                                           if select VO - then also same conditions are coming & taxes are flowing in PO
here my requirement is why services PO the V0 - taxes & tax conditions are flowing as maintained in FV11 key combination
pl help in arresting the Services-PO - Taxes & Tax conditions should not flow when we select V0.
thanks & regards
Srihari

hi
I think my query is not clear, i repeat the same.
1. I am maitaining Fv11 for Vat i.,e JVRD conditions, this will be triggered when i use V1 in while making PO- Materials, all the tax values ie., Vat amount is flowing in PO,
If I select V0, then the tax conditions are not flowing and values are nil. PO- Materials, all the tax values Nil, and the po value is without any Vat amount.
2. Similarly, I am maintaining FV11 for service tax ie., JSRT -10%, JEC1-2% & JSEC-1%, this will be triggered when I use S1 in while making PO-services, all the tax values ie., service, ec, sec cess amounts are flowing in PO.
If is select V0, then also the tax conditions are flowing in PO- services, all the tax values ie., service tax, ec, sec cess
I want the PO-Service, without any taxes, when I select standard Tax condition V0.
Pl suggest, do we have separate tax conditions for materials & services, meaning
V1 - taxes to flow in PO- Materials
V0 - Taxes not to flow in PO- Materials
S1 - Services taxes to flow in PO- Services
S0 - Services not to flow in PO- Services   -
> this is to be created new??????????
pl advise, how i over come the issue of services taxes flow in PO-Services.
pl help
thanks & regards

Workflow Manager Backend service fails to start - FatalException

I installed Workflow Manager 1.0 (with default recommended configuration) and the Cummulative Update 1 and activated the feature on SharePoint 2013. I restarted my server.
The Workflow Manager Backend service cannot start. An attempt is done every 30" but it's always fails. The errors I see in the event viewer (every 30") are the following:

Hi,
I am not sure if you have solved this but it seems that the WF 1.1 Update requires some more updates in one of the tables in the configuration
database for the Workflow installation. Checkout the database [WFResourceManagementDB] and the table [WorkflowServiceConfig]. You need the flowing entries and values:
