"Workflow Options" profiles

Hi Everyone. I was wondering if there is a way to add profiles (color spaces) to the existing selection under "Workflow Options". I only see the usual suspects (SRGB, Adobe 1998 etc,). I have tried going into Colorsync>profiles with no luck. Thanks!

No...the only color spaces available are the 4 in the Workflow settings. If you want to transform to some other color space, open the image in Pro Photo RGB in 16 bit and do a Convert to Profile conversion inside of Photoshop.

Workflow Options Changed in ACR

I noticed that the Workflow Options window in ACR has changed slightly so that it looks more like Export in Lightroom. When did this happen? Is there a way to toggle between the old and new windows for Workflow Options. I noticed that this change is not on all computers with the newest version of CS6. Some have the old window and some the new one.

I'm moving this post from this forum for photoshop-dot-com (an online portal) to the correct forum for Photoshop pro users like yourselves.

Smart Object - How do I keep ACR from changing workflow options?

Open image in Photoshop as a Smart Object from Lightroom.
Double-click to change the RAW characteristics.
When I return to Photoshop, my image has been changed... Color space is changed, bit depth is changed, size is changed........
I believe I know WHAT is doing it - the Workflow Options in ACR are set. HOW DO I TURN THEM OFF?
I can't find a reset, and I can't get it to stop messing with the image. I've SPECIFICALLY UNCLICKED the "Resize to Fit", but
it STILL takes my 2600x3300 pixel image and returns it as 1824x2321 pixels.......
Where and how do I reset this thing?

I ABSOLUTELY agree...... That's exactly, I believe, how it's SUPPOSED to work.
Except that mine didn't.
I opened a 12.2 MP RAW file.
And made absolutely no changes to the workflow uptions at the time of opening.
But instead of "Image Sizing" saying "Default 12.2 MP", it said "3.6MP"
Resize was turned OFF
Width was 2321 px and height was 1824 px, BOTH GRAYED OUT.
Upon leaving ACR, I had a 2321x1824 file.
Eventually, after wasting another hour screwing around with it, I finally blew away all of Bridge AND the preferences and all that,
and rebooted since the %$#)(*& Adobe CC thing wouldn't figure out there was no more Bridge, and resintalled...........
Now, when I open a file in there, at LEAST it knows it's 12.2MP.
It STILL wants to change the Space to sRGB, which I NEVER use from here, and the Depth to 8-bit, which again, I never use in ACR,
but I can set those back to what they should be...
So, in this case, by using a large enough bludgeon, I appear to have gotten around the problem. Now I'm just waiting to see how soon it screws up again.

Workflow options are disabled in the sidekick for non-administrators

We have a custom workflow for content approval. The first step in the workflow assigns the task to the workflow initiator.
While testing the workflow, the initiation is successful and also the first task is assigned to the initiator. But when the initiator open the task and the content attached to the workflow opens in the content finder the workflow options are not available in the sidekick. It just says "
This page is subject to workflow:
TxDOT Content Approval Workflow
Under Workflow Package it says - "Unable to add to a package because of a running workflow."
Any idea why the workflow options to complete, step back, and delegate are not available? These options are available to the author by right-clicking on the task in the Inbox. Just not available in the sidekick.

Sham,
This is the strange part of the issue. The content is attached to the workflow and the task is also assigned to the user. I have verified this from the worklfow instances. Yet, these options are not available in the sidekick. However, these options are available in the right-click menu in Inbox.

Modelling different workflow-options

Hi,
There is a wiki which tells us the different work-flow options you can use:
SAP Business Workflow,
Guided Procedures
Collaboration tasks
ccBPM
etc.
Question1: is the a comprehensive tool to model these different altogether or do we need SAP Business Workflow's own modelling tool, UML for guided procedures, ? for Collaboration tasks and BPMN for BPEL separately (I hope it's not...).
Question 2: How does ARIS EPC's relate to this: the EPC is used for business-modelling. This should be the starting point for configurating different workflow-options, (using different models?).
Greetings Theo

Hi Theo,
I've nothing to hide but that quote was taken from an internal SAP mail so it wasn't polished for forum publication.
Just to clarify - I agree with your description of the layers.
I believe that a bpx working in an SAP environment should be aware of the tools (and approximate capabilities) at their disposal as well as basic functionality in the underlying business components deployed.
I believe that any question along the lines of "how do you do this with..tool A" is definitely not for the bpx forum. It should go in the relevant tools forum. Seeing as most of these posts are related to SAP Business Workflow or BAM or XI then they should go in the SAP NetWeaver BPM forum. There is also a CAF forum for guided procedures and a Visual Composer forum for VC and other forums for the other tools (such as BI). I.e. No need to create a new forum, just direct these tool posts to the tools forums.
I don't know whether BPMN or UML can really be understood by the business experts. In my experience white-boarding and flow-charts work pretty well but maybe the business experts have become more process savvy (which is why we want to offer certification).
Experience in a process automation project is a must, and knowledge about why this process is being done in such-and-such a way (e.g. 6-Sigma understanding) is also a must.
The BPX can reach level 1 from either level 1 or level 3. Philip Kisloff's BPX article is an excellent demonstration of level 3. Yes, he did use workflow to solve the problem but he had his bpx glasses on when he wrote the article.

Camera Raw Workflow options

HI
when i open jpag (or tiff) in camera raw Workflow options,
i have option to size image.
may question it's: if i choose the large size, what hapen to
may image - interpolation like in Ps?
thank

I don't know which algorithm Camera Raw uses ... but the result of the upsampling is virtually the same as Bicubic Smoother in Photoshop. Except for one thing: Camera Raw's upsampling will add tiny ringing artifacts to the result; Photoshop's won't. The artifacts are bright, horizontal or vertical, 1-pixel-wide lines along sharp, high-contrast edges. So for perfect results I recommend to convert the raw image to its native size in Camera Raw, then do the upsizing in Photoshop using the resampling method Bicubic Smoother. Before upsizing, apply some gentle source or capture sharpening.
However those ringing artifacts are really
i very
small; it takes a very close look at high magnification to notice. In most cases they'll go unnoticed. So you may decide not to care. However they tend to get emphasized by subsequent sharpening.

Sharpen in "workflow options" and "Detail" tab

how does the sharpen within workflow options relate to the sharpening applied within the detail pane?
Does one override the other or would the sharpening be additive?
thanks.

>I probably would never use the workflow settings, especially since they are not well defined settings, and I assume for "general" office work...
In my opinion, the workflow options for output sharpening in ACR are rather awkward to use. One advantage of parametric editing is that the edits are stored in the ACR database or in the XMP file in a compact form without the necessity of large and possibly multilayered TIFF files. After making the required edits, one has repurposable masterfile that can be used for derivative images.
However, when one uses the ACR output sharpening, the dimensions of the image and the resolution must be determined in advance. One then has an output file that is suitable only for printing that specific image, and repurposibility is lost.
Furthermore, the output sharpening in ACR requires the setting of the resolution in pixels per inch. When printing to a relatively large output size, one usually renders the image at the native resolution of the camera and then sets the image dimensions of the picture without resampling. In the ACR workflow one must manually calculate the needed output resolution from the intended output size in inches and the native resolution of the camera in pixels.
For example, if one is using a Nikon D3 camera with a resolution of 2832 x 4256 pixels and wants to print on super B paper with a short axis dimension 12.5 inches, it is necessary to predetermine the required resolution in pixels per inch by dividing 2832 by 12.5 to obtain the needed resolution of 227 pixels per inch. One enters this value in the ACR dialog box.The result is an image that is suitable only for printing at that size.
Personally, I would prefer to use ACR to make a repurposable masterfile which can later be resized and output sharpened as necessary. Currently, I use PKSharpener for this purpose.
It would be nice to be able to store several possible output options in the XMP file or database, and this is currently not possible. For example, one might want to store settings for 8 by 10 or 11 x 14 inch prints.

Synchronizing workflow options?

I frequently open multiple images at a time in ACR. I had thought that selecting all images and then setting workflow options would set the selected workflow options for all of the images, but it doesn't.
The synchronize option allows you to select any of the image quality/color setting to sync, but not the workflow options.
If you have a bunch of images in the filmstrip view in ACR , do you have to go through each one at a time to select the workflow options? Is there a way to assign them all at once?
Thanks,
Joe.

I am using ACR 3.7 on windows. There are two different camera models involved in the images I have in ACR. Could that cause the workflow options to only work on a one-to-one basis rather than on the entire selection?
ACR does not seem to be setting workflow options by camera model as the difference in output results varied even within camera models. However, I guess it could be that the presence of two camera models within the selection could force the need to select workflow options individually for each image.

Workflow Options

I'm a long time PS user but have always used Capture One for RAW conversion. I'm now trying to learn ACR 5.0 which looks to have developed into a pretty cool RAW converter with some great features. My question is - how can I save Workflow Options as defaults? I want sRGB, 16bit and 300ppi as opposed to the default RGB, 8bit, 240ppi. It seems that each time I exit ACR the Workflow Options revert to the defaults. Thanks in advance for what I'm sure will be a simple answer.
Ed

Thanks for the fast response Ramon!
Maybe things have changed or it's a glitch in the new software, but the Workflow Options are not sticky in 5.0. I have a feeling that will change with some near-future updates.
I pre-purchased CS4 about two weeks ago and downloaded the new software early this morning. PS will take a little getting used since some things have changed locations, but I'm very excited with some of the new features. Like I mentioned before - I'm a newbie to ACR so the entire program is a learning experience.
Thanks again for your response and I'll just "wait and see" what happens in the next few weeks with upgrades to resolve the non-sticky Workflow Options.

Option Profile setting in OPA3 for CM01 display

Hi,
In CM01 does it display till 6 months only, Since I am changing number of days to more than 180 in OPA3 fro option profile but it is always showing till 180 days only and in past it is going to 30 days, is this standard SAP or is it possible to display more than 180 days? Suggest me,

Create the selection profile and specify the period (OPA2).
Create the option profile and specify the period (OPA3).
Create the overall profile to link selection and option profile together (OPA6).
In CM01, you can change the overall profile in menu path Planning -> Profile -> Overall profile.
You can default the overall profile in user parameter CY1.

I CANNOT FIND THE OPTION "PROFILE" UNDER GENERAL SETTINGS IN MY IPHONE 4 VERSION 4.2.1

I CANNOT FIND THE OPTION "PROFILE" UNDER GENERAL SETTINGS IN MY IPHONE 4 VERSION 4.2.1

So, when in doubt, check out the manual (this one is for 4.2 and 4.3: http://manuals.info.apple.com/en_US/iPhone_iOS4_User_Guide.pdf).
This is what I found under the General / Settings section. Not super helpful!
Profiles
This setting appears if you install one or more profiles
So I guess my question is, did you already set up the profile somewhere?? I searched through the manual and didn't see anything super helpful, but since you know specifically what you're looking for, maybe you'll find something I missed.

Workflow substitution profile - mechanics

Hi,
I am testing workflow substition profiles as we need to allow users to set up personal subs for timesheets but not FI documents.
I have followed all the steps in the IMG and set the classification of the workflow task accordingly. This works great in DEV but not in our QA & PRD environments where <b>all</b> workflows seemed to be pulled through for the substitute rather than just those tasks with the correct classification.
Does anybody know where the workflow items are read/filtered when a personal substitute is maintained?
Thanks,
Rowan

Hi Rowan/Altin,
It's been a while since I played with it, but I remember that HR-based subs only worked if the workflow used HR agent assignments (i.e. Job, Personnel No, Org Unit etc. rather than SAP UserIDs). Also, make sure you don't have personal subs set up as well.
Hope that helps,
Mike
PS - it would be nice for people to use their own ids/names. This is not specifically directed at you but a general comment as I see this often.

ACR 8.1 beta Crop/Workflow Options change is inconvenient

I generally leave the ACR Workflow Options resolution set to default, and in the past have set the crop tool to a smaller pixel resolution, such as 1024x768. I could then either run the image straight thru to Photoshop at full resolution, or apply a crop and save directly from ACR for proof/email lower resolution versions.
However it appears that in 8.1 the crop tool no longer has a pixel setting, now I have to set the resolution in the workflow options in order to save out a proof/email image. If I want to run the full resolution image thru to Photoshop I have to click on the Workflow Options link and disable the resolution setting. So I can't switch back and forth without changing workflow options, which requires more clicks, and is easy to forget; Is there a way to save multiple workflow options settings and select among them? Such has been requested for a long time, but apparently is still not available.
Richard Southworth
Added by edit - the new item in the Workflow Options is a Resize to Fit section, which can be enabled/disabled with a check box. Is there a shortcut key to toggle, something quicker than going thru the link at the bottom?

I'm in the process of going through 1100+ images from a recent vacation, selecting and re-sizing for transfer to an iPad. Actually the new arrangement is working out ok, I'm adjusting and cropping on the originals, then going back and doing a multiple save out at the desired resolution. Most of my images are un-cropped, so this new configuration saves a lot of full frame cropping.
As long as I remember to disable the resize before moving images to Photoshop all is ok, even preferable. Sorry I complained, nothing like using a tool to understand the pros and cons.

Cancel Save Workflow option missing in R17 env

Has anyone noticed the cancel save option in WF is missing in my R17 env.
Can anyone confirm if they have it in any of their R17 env ?
Edited by: Robin7511 on Jun 15, 2010 3:32 PM

Hi Everyone,
We were a little surprised by this as well. We had built quite a few CO validations with it and at this time will probably rollback the validations until certification is complete.
The following is an excerpt taken directly from the June 2010 patch release notes:
Oracle CRM On Demand
Release 17
Patch Release Notes
1142.0.02
"Cancel Save option in Workflow exposed on record types other than Opportunity (CR 12-1XVXFX5)
The Cancel Save feature was released in 1083.0.00 for the Opportunity record type only. It was
inadvertently exposed on other record types and is not certified by Oracle CRM On Demand. If you
have already used this feature you will receive the following privilege so you can either roll back the
use of this feature (recommended) or continue usage at your own risk:
Privilege Category: Customization: Business Rules
Privilege Name: Workflow Cancel Save
Privilege Description: Prevent save operation on 'Before Modified Record Saved' workflow events.
This privilege is dependent on the Manage Data Rules - Manage Workflow Rules privilege. The
privilege allows the use of this feature on the following record types:
1. Account
2. Activity
3. Contact
4. Custom Object 1
5. Custom Object 2
6. Custom Object 4
7. Household
8. Lead
9. Revenue
10. Service Request
This feature is not supported on any other record types.
If you have used the Cancel Save feature, and have not received this privilege or the privilege is inactive, the Cancel
Save section for the above record types:
- is not visible in the workflow creation page
- is read-only in the workflow edit and detail pages
Customers who have not yet used this feature may use it on the Opportunity record type only which is not
restricted by the above privilege and is certified for all customers.
Certification of this feature for the record types listed above is currently underway and will be available in a
forthcoming release."

Workflow - which profile?

howdy
I've been using US Web coated (Swop) v2 for a year or so to limit my ink denisty to 300% (mandatory with my printer)
Since using it though, I'm not really happy with the contrast and saturation of the final output stuff - everything is a bit flat.
I've just been googling profiles and came accross a post relating to a fogra27 profile with a 300% ink limit - which I now cant find.
I have found ISO Coated v2 300% (ECI),
Anyone know if this is an updated version of the fogra profile?
Before my printer had the 300% limit I used the fogra profile with better results.
This is my intended workflow:
ID set to the fogra CMYK profile and Managment policy set to preserve numbers (most placed graphics in adobe RGB)
Then export with convert to destination (destination=the fogra profile, so native artwork not converted) and dont include profile as printer uses an unmanaged workflow. Does that sound about right?
thanks!

Thanks, TD... now how do I drag the photos... is dragging albums over from the open app ok or do I need to drag from a an iPhoto folder on the hardrive/
