Workflow setting to launch applciation from portal UWL

Hi,
Do we require to make any settings if we are to launch our Dynpro application from the portal UWL. I have a parameter whose value keeps changing for each workitem generated. Do i need to make any settings on the backend side so that this value is passed.
Thanks,
Prasy

1. First you need to create a task with appropriate container elements. In genereal most of the times the standard DECISION task copy is taken and the requireed container elements are created in the copied task.
2. In the SWFVISU txn we configure the copied task with the VISUIALIZATION TYPE as webdynpro and the parameters that we need to set are.
APPLICATION     <Name Of the Dynpro Application Name>
DYNPARAM     WI_ID=${item.externalId} " This changes from workitem to workitem.
NAMESPACE     sap
DYNPARAM changes from one workitem to another.

Web Dynpro Application is not openeing from Portal UWL

Hi,
I have developed a WD application which is integrated in the portal. This WD application navigates through several levels of approval by triggering the workflow. Initially USER will create the request launching the WD application from portal and upon clicking the SUBMIT button -> Workflow will be triggered and Work item will be sent to Approver UWL list in the Portal.
Link will be displayed in the UWL list and upon clicking that link WD application need to be opened where the details will be displayed and can approve the request by clicking on APPROVE button.
Here, We have created a PFCG role which can be assigned to USER to access the WD application to create the request from portal. But for Approvers, we have not assigned any such roles except UWL role.
Workflow is working fine, Workitem is displayed in Approvers UWL but when they click on the link -> WD Application is not opening. Configuration in SWFVISU is done.
I think we are missing some roles which need to be assigned to Approvers. We cross checked by assigning SAP_ALL profile to the Approers and found WD application is getting opened and everything is working fine. But we are not supposed to give SAP_ALL in the PRD.
Please help what are the other roles that need to be assigned to Approvers.
Thanks,
Bharath.

did you try by assigning pfcg roles to approvers along with Uwl?

Hi,
You can call the iView directly by using NavigationTarget..
http://myServer:50000/irj/portal?
NavigationTarget=ROLES://portal_content/myFolder/myRole/myIview
Plz note that the iView you are calling should be part of a Role.
And the PCD location of the iView in the Role must be given for Navigation Target.

Launch window from portal in seperate browser in dialog mode(no toolbrs)?

Hi All,
Just wondering if there is any way to launch a new window from portal, so that it is opened in a seperate window without any toolbars. (None of the availble options in the 'Lauch in new window' parameter suit my needs..)
Thanks in advance,
Liz.

Hey,
Firstly, thanks for the response... The application is developed using BSP's. I know how to open a window from my app without toolbars but what i don't know is how to open the start page without toolbars.
If you have any code that you could give me, that'd be great.
Many thanks,
Liz.

Javascript error on launching application from portal

When we launch BW reports from our portal (Netweaver 7.0) , it gives a javascript error and the reports would not launch for some users. The launch pad is using WEBDYNPRO-ABAP . The javascript error that we are getting is - u2018Childnodes.lengthu2019 is Null or Not an Object . This happens on all versions of Internet Explorer. Has any one encountered this issue ?

Completed Task cannot be launched again from the UWL.

Here is the situation.
The identified agent clicked the task in the UWL.
Task was launched in a new window and opened an ABAP webdynpro application correctly.
Agent then approved the task using the approve button in the application. Task was thus completed.
Now the agent pulled the "Completed Tasks" from the Show dropdown on the Tasks tab in the UWL.
The task which the agent approved earlier showed up.
But when the agent clicked this link in the UWL. The application would not be launched again.
The task preview does appear but the agent wants to the same application form displayed again to confirm what they have approved.
Any ideas how this can be done. I remember we could do that in the PCR application on ISR framework.
Edited by: Linkin Pereira on Dec 5, 2008 7:12 PM

I did some investgation and figured out that there is no standard way to invoke an already completed Task.Therefore for our requirement I have proposed a new solution.
I am storing the Workitem Id, when the task gets created, in a custom table along with all the data which is necessary for the I-View display.
To enable users to open the I-View of the task they already completed and take a print out of the I-View etc, I have designed another application. and in this application I am using the Workitem Id to read which completed task they want to view.
See if this works for you.

How to add 1 more column in standard portal UWL and map the values.

Hi
I have one issue/requirement, please help me out on that also.
In portal UWL, i want to add one more column TICKET ID COLUMN, and ticket id value I will be putting as work item ID of abap Workflow, so whenever approver opens his portal UWL, in first column i want to show ticket ID say 00012345, so how to add this ticket ID column in standard portal UWL and how to put/map value of work item in that column.
My idea behind this is, when ever say employee wants to know the status about his ticket ID, he can simply ask his manager regarding the ticket status by referring to that ticket ID which manager can easily find in his portal UWL in that extra TICKET ID COLUMN .
Do I have to change anything in SAP inbox also ? Do i have to add 1 more colum in sap R/3 inbox also ? and will adding 1 more colum in sap inbox (R/3 inbox), will create automatically one more ticket ID colum in portal UWL also ?
please let me know , as i do not want to add 1 extra column in R/3 inbox, just i want in portal UWL extra ticket ID column should come and i want to put workitem ID generated at the start of workflow, in that colum in portal UWL
please help me on this.
Thanks...

Hi Satyam,
These are called custom attributes. Here is a powerpoint that may be able to assist you with the documentation that the other poster gave you too.
Always remember too when you make a change on the backend R/3 side, you must reregister your UWL connector. And yes, the column must be available on the backend R/3 side. We can't create on the fly columns in the UWL, that have no reference to the backend system in this case.

Adobe interactive form(ABAP WD)size is increasing & not opening from EP UWL

Hello All,
Adobe interactive form (ABAP WD) size is increasing after cleansing data from MDM and the form is not opening from portal UWL.
Same application is working fine in Dev and Qa environment. In dev and QA the form size is around 150 KB after cleansing data from MDM. Some reason in production it is more than 2 MB. FYI - We have multiple app servers in production.
/Padmanaban

Hi Babi,
In the adobe form layout library Use the Submit(which internally means submit to SAP) button from the Webdynpro Native category.
Only this button action can connect adobe to web dynpro.
Whenever we click on this particular button the event will be trigger in the ONsubmit event of interactive form UI element in the webdynpro.There we can write our abap code.Hope this will help you.

Workbook doesn't fit the window when launched from Portal

Hello SCNer's,
When a workbook is launched from Portal it opens to the right side of the window and is minimized.
It fits the window once maximized, are there any settings available which can defaultly set the workbook to fit the window.
Thanks SCNer's.

Hi,
Do you mean by executing the Query in portal or executing the Workbook.
Protal setting for the number of columns/rows are decided by 0ANALZER_PATTERN web template. Which is the default web template.
Check the settings in the Default Web Template used.
Thanks & Regards,

Hi
Please provide the steps taken in Portal to reproduce the issue
I think the problem could be missing configuration in UWL configuration file which is uploaded via
System Administration -> System Configuration -> Universal Worklist
and Workflow -> Universal Worklist Administration.
I am not sure how UWL team delivers this code for new work items - its possible a CSS message is needed to investigate this
Thanks

How to set selected Language from Portal dropdown in Logon to User profile

Hi Gurus,
I select a language in Portal Language dropdown in the Logon Page.
After login in the content is getting displayed in the browser language.
I want the portal content to be displayed in the selected language in the portal LogonPage.
I checked the thread Logon page change to add a dropdown for language
The is the requirement for me too .
Kindly suggest me on how to set the language in the Portal user Profile so that the portal contents gets displayed in the selected languages from the dropdown .
Thanks in Advance

Hi Prasanna,
The language that the portal is displayed in depends on the following
heirarchy, with the languages at the top of the list taking precedence
over those at the bottom:
1. Component (iview) language (defined in the portalapp.xml)
2. Portal Mandatory language (defined in the prtDefault.properties)
3. User language (defined in the user#s profile).
4. Request language (defined by the browser).
5. Portal Default language (defined in the prtDefault.properties)
6. System Default language (default locale defined by the OS).
So for example, if you have your portal user language (as in point 3)
set to Russian, but the language of the iView that is the logon page
(as in point 1) set to English, that logon page will be displayed in
English.
Keeping the above in mind, please make the necessary changes to the
configurations and check if it helps.

Sowmya

How to set Changed_by field with User ID not by Workflow ID, when Status Update from Workflow

Hi Frds,
I am updating the Order Status from Workflow. So the Status update (or Order Changed) is save with Workflow ID. I need to insert UserID instead of workflow ID. Please help me out of this.
Thanks
Imran

Hi Imran
With the very few details available on your process, the workflow design and the "Order", all I can suggest is that:
1) In your workflow definition, go to the step which sends the user decision, in the binding FROM the TASK TO the Workflow, set _ACTUAL_AGENT to a workflow container element , say DECISION_AGENT (of type SWHACTOR)
2) Assuming that the next step in APPROVAL branch is setting of the status, go the task ID of that Step -> make it a dialog step (remove the Background Processing check) -> set it's agent assignment to general task
3) Back in the workflow, set that STATUS SETTING step to Advance With Dialog under the details tab
4) In the control tab of the same step, in the agents section, set agent as EXPRESSION and the value as &DECISION_AGENT&
When a user approves the decision item, his ID will be stored in DECISION_AGENT
The status set will execute immediately (because of "Advance with Dialog") in the same session of approving as the user who approved is the same running this step now
The status will be set by the ID of the Approver
The above is hypothetical considering
1) You do not have dynamic parallel processing
2) Status setting happens immediately after the approval; as a first step in the approval branch
3) The Decision Task does not has "Confirm End of Processing" checked.

Modak
