Workflow - Parameter Assignment Question

I have this workflow where i have defined the input parameter in the "start" activity. and, have directly binded that parameter into the input parameter in the "mapping" activity.
is this the right way to do? or do i need to assign the parameter (from "start" activity) first into a variable, and then assign it into the input parameter in the "mapping" activity?

never mind, i got it :-)

How to automate the process of adding members into the planning workflow and assigning owners to it?

Hi,
We have a workflow XYZ. After every two-three days our entity structure is getting refreshed - so new entities comes in.
Every time we have to manually add these new entities to the workflow and assign owners to it.
Please let me know if there is any option to automate the process.

How to create publishing custom approval workflow will assign approvers.

Hi All,
I am new in sharepoint development.
I have a page library where we add artical page with different department
I want to create publishing custom approval workflow will assign approvers based on what department is selected for display. The departments pull from the Other list. On that list each department is assigned an approval group. That approval
group is what should be used for approving the item.
need send to mail with based on selected department approval group
thanks in advance.

Ok, what you're asking for is something that people do all the time, but you say you are new to sharepoint development... So...
Here's how you would do it in SPD:

and here's how you can do it in visual studio:

Either way should work, it just depends on your comfort level inside the dev environment.

Approve quote to be ordered based on workflow activity assigned to the user

hi,
how to approve the quote(cart) to be ordered when user clicks place order based on the workflow activity assigned to the user.
regards
yesukannan

Thanks for the quick response.The workflow rule will work only for certain combinations.
I am trying to avoid using different combinations of the word "Convention Center" in the workflow rule since the word convention center could be spelled with mixed cases by the sales people.For example - Convention center or convention Center or CONVENTION center.
I don't want to check for the different combinations of the convention center string in the workflow rule since i need to check for other fields in the opportunity and the expression could get very long.
I am trying to convert the opportunity to upper case and then check for 'CONVENTION CENTER' so that it will handle all the scenarios.
Thanks

I created a multline conatiner for agent in the workflow container.
In the fm sww_wi_start_simple, I am passing the internal table from agent.
But while debugging I found in the fm agent table, the value which i sent is present.
But after triggering workflow it is going to another id, which i assigned while testing.
How to verify which value is coming to agent in the workflow.

Workflow agent assignment in Production system

Hello Sap Gurus,
Is there a way to maintain harcoded agents(not a general task..but putting in a user's name) on the tasks in the SAP production system without going to Change mode.
I know we can do it for the Workflow templates in Dispaly mode but for the tasks, it wouldn't let us do without being in Change mode.
Any suggestions is appreciated
Thanks

Hi Rachana,
The agent assignment of a task is a PD infotype and therefore the question is do you have the authorisation do maintain in production?
From what you have described, the short answer appears to be no. But a longer answer is that, with sufficient access, you can open a workitem in change mode and forward to a new agent after using the Replace Manually option.
Another option would be to go in throught the diagnosis tolls (SWUD) and use the option test environment. You will see the steps of your workflow at the bottom of the page. If there is a red football shaped object - this is agent assignment - you can click to maintain the assignments.
A better question is why maintain by user ID here as it is a pain to maintain.

Workflow Termination Notification Question

I have a question regarding termination notification workflow. I am trying to create termination notifications for a server and I have to verify both worklist and email notification.
I have checked the Set Up HRMS > Common Definitions > Self Service->Workflow Configuration and Personnel administrator role is assigned for Terminate Employee workflow. Also, in PeopleTools > Security > Roles & Permissions I have an user assigned to this role.
In Worklist->Worklist, I only see the termination action created through Manager Self Service->Job and Personal Information->Terminate Employee and not the one using Workflow Administration->Job Information->Job Data. Also, no email is received.
Could you give me a hint regarding this problem?

Does anyone out there at Microsoft have accurate answers to these questions?
Thanks!EM

Controller Assignment Question

Hello, i was wondering if anyone could steer my in the right direction on this problem I have with controller assignments. See, i want to use Logic 7.1 on my Powerbook in a live situation with some midi controller knobs. The question is, how can i set up controller assignments so that i can have different assignments per song ( which has totally different tracks and plugins) ? I broke out the manual and read something about modes and zones, but cannot figure this out for the life of me, or know if this is the right direction to go in.
I create the controller assignments for one song, then when i open up the next song, they seem to be interfering with each other. I suppose the controller function isnt particularly meant for this, but is there any way i can get around this problem?
Thank you for taking the time to read this! I really appreciate any help.

When you use the "Learn mode", you bypass the Enviornment all together and Logic directly maps the controller info to the AU plug-in (or other control parameter).
A quick and dirty way to (maybe) resolve this would be to make your midi controller send different channels on for each song. Therefore, song 1 would respond to assigned midi key commands on channel 1, song 2 would listen for channel 2, etc...I don't have Logic in front of me, but I think this might work. It's not the most elegant solution, but it might work. Another similar idea would be to put a transformer and shift all your CC different values (e.g. song 1, CC#1 would be CC#21 for song 2, CC#2 on song 1 would be CC#22 on song 2). And if you want to contol the same parameter from song to song, don't transform the CC (this is obvious, but I want to point it out).
To reiterate, this is not the most elegant solution and I could be completely wrong, but this might be a quick fix.
The best way (in my opinion) is wire cables (with transformers) in the environment to the audio object that you want to control. I haven't been able to get that idea to completely work and I am still working on it.
good luck.

Weird case of simple parameter assignment

Hi, Guys !
Here's some challenge for you. I have a Package where one of the Functions used for Error_logging. It works fine, except rarely it gives an Error :
ORA-06512: at "CORE_PKG", line 295
ORA-06502: PL/SQL: numeric or value error: character string buffer too small
272 PROCEDURE ERR_HANDLER_PRC
273 (iERR_CODE IN NUMBER,
274 oRETURN_CODE OUT NUMBER,
275 oRETURN_MSG OUT ERROR_MSG_BV.MSG_TEXT%TYPE,
276 iUSE_SQLERRM IN BOOLEAN DEFAULT TRUE) IS
277
278 vMSG_REC ERROR_MSG_BV%ROWTYPE := MSG_ROW_FNC (iERR_CODE); -- This Function selects 0 or 1 row based on passed Error code from Table of standard messages (just 33 rows)
279
280 BEGIN
281
282 IF vMSG_REC.MSG_TEXT IS NULL OR vMSG_REC.RETURN_CODE IS NULL THEN
283 vMSG_REC.RETURN_CODE := iERR_CODE;
284 vMSG_REC.MSG_TEXT := SQLERRM (iERR_CODE);
285 END IF;
286
287 oRETURN_CODE := vMSG_REC.RETURN_CODE;
288 oRETURN_MSG := vMSG_REC.MSG_TEXT;
289
290 EXCEPTION
291
292 WHEN OTHERS THEN
293
294 oRETURN_CODE := vMSG_REC.RETURN_CODE;
295 oRETURN_MSG := vMSG_REC.MSG_TEXT;
296
297 INSERT_ERROR_LOG_PRC ('CORE_PKG', 'ORACLE', SQLCODE, SQLERRM, 'ERR_HANDLER_PRC',
298 'Execution Block of ERR_HANDLER_PRC');
299
300 END ERR_HANDLER_PRC;
At line 295 - just a simple assignment of one field (which is VARCHAR2 (512) <- longest Oracle SQLERRM string) belonging to a ROWTYPE variable. But that's happening inside error handler which means that initial
error occur on Line 284 or 288. On those lines
also similar assignments. I checked all parameters, variables, %types and %rowtypes and they all
VARCHAR2(512) - exactly what are suppose to be. Longest string selected from Table of standard messages into %rowtype.msg_text is 97 characters (eventhough it can hold up to 512).
So my question is HOW in the world is possible that Buffer is too small If it's SAME length that variable ???
(and actual string less then 512)
Any Ideas anybody ?
Thanx ! ( Please let me know If anything is unclear )

Thanx, Rich. I understand what you're saying and I was able to re-create error in Anonymous block which calls
ERR_LOG_HANDLER_PRC and which call ERR_HANDLER_PRC that raises an Error.
DECLARE
STATUS ERROR_LOG_BV.ERROR_CODE%TYPE;
STATUS_MSG VARCHAR2(20); <-- this declaration causes 'Buffer too small' error
BEGIN
PENSKE_CORE_PKG.ERR_LOG_HANDLER_PRC (SQLCODE, SQLERRM, STATUS, STATUS_MSG, TRUE, 'ORACLE',
'ANONYMOUS_BLOCK', 'TEST_CALL');
END;
But this code executes fine:
DECLARE
STATUS ERROR_LOG_BV.ERROR_CODE%TYPE;
STATUS_MSG ERROR_LOG_BV.ERROR_DESC%TYPE;
BEGIN
PENSKE_CORE_PKG.ERR_LOG_HANDLER_PRC (SQLCODE, SQLERRM, STATUS, STATUS_MSG, TRUE, 'ORACLE',
'ANONYMOUS_BLOCK', 'TEST_CALL');
END;
But that's a testing code. In the real code I checked all Programs calling that routine, and all
OUT parameters and variables declared dynamically like :
vERR_CODE ERROR_LOG_BV.ERROR_CODE%TYPE;
vERR_MSG ERROR_LOG_BV.ERROR_DESC%TYPE;
So I don't know how is that possible ?

FI Payment Release Workflow Agent assignment and SPRO settings.

Hi Experts,
I am working on Payment release workflow for 2 stages. So for this i have activated the main workflow WS00400012 and for First level release WS00400011 and for second level release WS00400021.
Now where should i assign the agent for First level release and second level release ? and what setting should i do in SPRO as FI settings.
Any of you suggestions will be of great help me to resolve this issue.
Regards,
Hari

Hi,
Thank you for your reply.Should i mention the main workflow number in SPRO or
just the subworkflows alone ?.
Assign main workflow number
Can i assign users directly in workflow itself insteas of assigning position in SPRO.
Don't assign users inside the workflow, if the user id you want to change then again you have to change the workflow.

Error Workflow not assigned to business object

Hi Team,
    I am working on CRM 7.0 system
     I have a Z business object ,and I have created a new workflow and called one of the method of the z business object.
And I am trying to trigger this workflow through a action definition based on status.while creating the action definition with respect to workflow I am getting the error "assigned BOR object type is not used in any workflows" no F4 values
      I have debugged and found that the entry in the table SWDSCNTIDX is not correct.
Kindly request you to guide me how to assign workflow to business object or how can I refer the workflow what I have created in action definition.
Regards,
Poornima

Hi,
You have to go the workflow change container element of that BOR e.g. "BUS2010030" and on tab "properties" check the checkbox "IMPORT" and "MANDATORY".
Doing the above BOR will be available in the F4 help of actions profile wizard or conditions.

Parameter selection question

I want to make a report that gives the user the option to do one of following:
(1) Select Top 5 Used Profile IDs
(2) Select Top 5 Random Profile IDs
(3) Choose Up to 5 Desired Profile IDs
How can I make a parameter that once selected will either, with option 1 or 2 pass the selected IDs from a SQL Command, or with option 3 to select the profile IDs themselves? Is this possible?
I am using CR 11.5 and this will be implemented with the Viewer through a front-end application.

hi Wesley,
you'd really need to post this question to a forum particular to your database. Commands are written in your db syntax.
mostly you'd need to know if your database actually supports a row level random function for the option number (2). some db's don't...i.e. they support a query level random function where the random number is a single number per query versus a different number for each row. if that's the case you'll need to look for a workaround particular to your db.
for the other options look into seeing whether or not your database supports a CASE statement for the ORDER BY clause and the WHERE clause as you'd need to either use the WHERE clause for picking 5 user entered profile ID's or the ORDER BY clause to get the Top 5 Used Profile ID's.
so given your db and version this type of command is possible.

Approval Workflow Task assigned behaviour

I have a strange issue that has started recently. On a approval workflow, if the users do not add anyone to the cc line on the task assignment, there is only one email generated to notify the recipient of the task . However, if they put someone on the
cc line as well, a email will get generated for each person on the cc list that will also include all the other recipients. So there are 3-4 emails being generated. What could cause this and how can I fix it?

Hi,
Let verify the following:
Whether you mean that when you add people to the cc line, several emails will be sent to the same recipient. if it is, perhaps your cc object
is a group contains the recipient.
Whether your approval workflow created with SharePoint Designer 2010 platform. Maybe
the following checkbox is enabled "For each group entered, assign a task to every member of that group" in the workflow.

Lisa Chen
