Workflow Translation getting OVERWRITTEN when transported

Hello gurus,
Here is what I am struggling with...hope someone has a solution to this.
We do workflow development in system DEV1 (template environment - only EN and DE languages are installed here), Transport it to  system DEV2 (local environment) and do translation from EN to various languages in system DEV2. Workflows are eventually transported to QA and PROD systems from DEV2.
once again to clarify - workflow def in DEV1 is only EN and translations exist for the workflow def in DEV2.
now when we do any bug fix for the workflow in DEV1 and transport it to DEV2, it generates a new workflow version in DEV2 (e.g. 0002) and we loose the translation that was done in DEV2 for version 0001.
Question - Is there anyway to transport workflow def (from DEV1 to DEV2) without transporting language piece of it? when we make any change in workflow in DEV1 - R3TR PDWS 99900001 - is what gets included under transport. When we make translation in DEV2 - LANG PDWS 99900001 - is what gets included in transport. So I am wondering if we can somehow transport R3TR minus LANG PDWS 99900001 from DEV1 to DEV2....
(PS - we can't install languages in DEV1 and translate workflows in DEV1...I wish we cud hv done that)
someone...please make my day 
Saurabh

Thanks for responding...
We have a transport landscape set up between DEV1 and DEV2. So do you think Export/Import will preserve translation versus regular transport?

  • A setting in visual administrator gets overwritten when a developer publish

    Hello
    Due to problems with logon groups a SAP consultant told me to uncheck "Add Application Cookie" and "Add Session Cookie" in Visual Administrator -> Cluster -> Server -> Services -> Web Container -> sap.com/home~[my app] -> View -> Main -> "Cookie Configuration". This works fine and solves that problem but instead I get a new one. Every time a developer publish something my setting gets overwritten and I need to uncheck it again, save and then restart the j2ee engine again to make it work.
    I can not get in touch with this consultant again (he don't answer any email) and not anyone on my company knows how to set it permanent so I hope any of you know how to set this permanently so I don't have to do this every time a developer does something new.
    I use NW 7.0 with patchlevel 109044.44 on HP-UX with IA64. I have the same problem on every server.
    Thank you in advance!
    Br Linus Hellsing

    Hello again
    We have solved this problem thanks to an employee at my company. The problem was that we didnt have any file called web-j2ee-engine.xml so we created this and set a couple of options in the developers program and then it worked.

  • How workflow is getting trigger when you click order

    Hello Friends,
      I would like to know how bus2121 Saved event trigger when click Order button in Web?
    thanks,
    John.

    Hi John,
    When a user orders a shopping cart. This triggers the SAVED event, which starts the approval workflow. The system analyzes the start conditions in Customizing.
    There is information here on which workflow the system should start under which conditions. Each workflow represents an approval process (single-level or multi-level) or is defined in such a way that no approval is necessary.
    If approval is required, the system goes through the corresponding approval procedure. The user can meanwhile change or delete the shopping cart. The shopping cart can take on the following statuses:
    Not accepted
    Approved
    Deleted
    Changed
    You can further process a request via a subworkflow.
    If approval is not required, the system sets the status to Approved and immediately starts the subworkflow.
    Users receive a work item. Before the shopping cart can be further processed, they have to accept the rejection of items (or not, as the case may be).
    After the shopping cart is released, the system calls the spooler. This transfers the shopping cart to the backend system or creates a purchase order locally in the Enterprise Buyer system.
    This is how a workflow triggers.
    With regards,
    mahesh

  • Need to Transport Workflow Translation

    Hi All,
    I want to transport my workflow translations to QA system. how do i do it?
    Because when i did the translations through SWDD->extras->translation.....it did not ask for any transport
    But i checked in the table SWDSTEXT...all the translations were  correctly stored( in DEV).
    I also tried through SE63...bu giving R3TR PDTS 90100010
    There also it did not ask for any transport.
    Please tell me step by step to transport the translation to QA system.
    Thanks,
    Abhi

    Hi,
    1. Please login the system using the language for which you have to translate the workflow.
    (For example if you want to translate to chinese then login using ZH as logon langauge )
    2. Then translate the worklfow (SWDD->Extras->Translation) and activate it ,  then your workflow gets stored in a transport request.

  • Deployed Files getting overwritten every time when I do a server restart

    Hi,
    I have deployed a web application in weblogic server. For testing purpose, instead of placing the changed file inside the war our team will change the files directly in the deployed area. Once when we restart the application server, the new files are getting overwritten with the old one. Is there any setting with which we can stop the weblogic server deploying the old war file again?

    Hi,
    I am stopping and restarting the weblogic server through startManagedWeblogic.sh script. I am not using the weblogic console. Some of our application developers directly drag and drop the Units in the Deployed Area for testing Purpose. Even with nostage mode the war file in the upload folder is getting redeployed at the time of server restart.

  • Workflow getting triggered when added/replace in Mask

    Hi Experts,

    Can anyone please help me sorting out this issue..
    Regards

    Hi Ravi,
    Today again I checked the scenario once again in production with both user/role and found that workflow is triggered for both users...
    Also I tested in Test environment and issue is same..
    I checked the Perf Tracing and found the below. Please  let me know if these are triggered because of some Java...

  • Workflow initiator does not get workitems when PR Approve rejects.

    Hi,
    Workflow initiators does not get workitems when PR Approve rejects.Is there any thing missing in that .
    Please let me know .

    Gurprit Bhatia
    Edited by: GURPRIT BHATIA on Jan 28, 2009 8:38 AM

    Hi GB,
    In order that the WF initiator gets workitems on PR rejection, you need to assign method 'InfoReleaseRejected' (BO BUS2009) to a task in the PR rejection flow of your WF. If this is done, then check if you have assigned WF Initiator as the Agent in that task.
    Hope this helps.
    Thanks,

  • Getting error when run the "'CalculateDependentDemand" workflow

    'Calculate Dependent Demand'
    Step ID: 'Step1'
    Step name: 'CalculateDependentDemand'
    Error description 'Database internal error:ORA-00060: deadlock detected while waiting for resource'
    How to remove the deadlock ?

    Hi,
    This occurs when you have multiple statements trying to access the same data. Check if you are running any other process at the same time (ep_load or any integration interfaces or any heavy sql query) and try rerunning the workflow at a time when the database is not too busy. This should resolve the issue, most of the time. Also, chk if your RAM is sufficient. Restart the DB and retry. If you are still repeatedly facing the issue, then might need your DBA help to chk which tables are causing the deadlock and Oracle help might be required.

  • Custom Transaction codes overwritten during transports

    Hi,
    When I create custom queries in my production client, assign transaction codes to them, and assign them to roles they get overwritten every time I perform a transport for those roles. We are still at an early stage of implementation and there are still some daily authorization changes that require a transport from test to production. When the roles are transported it wipes all my reports (transaction codes) assigned to these roles in the production system. Is there a way to perform a transport without wiping out the customizations made to the role in the production system like these?
    Thank you,
    Sergiy

    The answer is in the way one works with BI (or BW).
    If the design is that queries are to be created in production (which is often used). As far as i know the only exception on the rule that everything should be build in DEV. And this is the only good way as you do not want end-users to work in DEV. There are some things to know about the way SAP works.
    If a role is changed in DEV and transported to PROD all queries assigned to the role in PROD will be disconnected.
    Solution a role to be used in PROD were queries will be assigned to should never be transported again.
    Solution in detail, there should be roles for different use:
    1.     Access to Info providers in version read and write.
    2.     Access to publish reports in roles per query role.
    3.     Query/Menu roles per info area.
    Roles 1 and 2 allow for access and can be transported as often as you want. Role 3 is only to be used as a container of queries to be used by end users and should NEVER be transported again (best practice is to delete if in DEV after transport and NOT assign it to a transport before deletion).
    In the publisher role it can be arranged to which role(s) the publisher can assign reports. It is also possible to force users to use a report naming convention in this role.

  • Is there any way to prevent fields from being overwritten when importing data via xdp-file?

    In an pdf-form designed with LCD everytime the form gets merged with an xdp-datafile content of all fields get overwritten, regardless which data-binding (normal, global, none) is assigned to the fields and regardless if the fields are exluded in the xdp-datafile. Is this normal behavior and is there any way to prevent fields from being overwritten?

    The xdp-file is first exported from Acrobat Professional 8 (export data as *.xdp) to get the complete structure. Then in the xdp-file some fields are removed manually and other fields are filled with data. When the modified xdp-file is opened again with Acrobat Professional 8 it grabs the original pdf-form and merges the manually filled fields into the form. With the merge all other fields in the form are overwritten, even if they are not defined in the xdp-file. And that is what I want to avoid. I want to merge the xdp-file into the form and keep the data in fields not defined in the xdp-file.

  • SharePoint Online workflows show server error when link is clicked. Cannot terminate them.

    This is for SharePoint Online. I have a number of workflows on a list that are in a 'suspended' state when I navigate to the workflows page for the item. When I click the link to view the workflow, I get a server error.  I need to terminate these workflows.

    Hi,
    Based on your description, you want to terminate these workflows in SharePoint online.
    You can terminate these workflows by the CSOM implementation through passing the ID of the list and list item.
    You can refer to the code snippets below.
    // connect to the workflow services via a CSOM client context
    var clientContext = new ClientContext(siteCollectionUrl);
    var workflowServicesManager = new WorkflowServicesManager(clientContext, clientContext.Web);
    // connect to the instance service
    var workflowInstanceService = workflowServicesManager.GetWorkflowInstanceService();
    // get all instances
    var workflowInstances = workflowInstanceService.EnumerateInstancesForListItem(listId, listItemId);
    clientContext.Load(workflowInstances);
    clientContext.ExecuteQuery();
    foreach (var instance in workflowInstances)
    // is this what we are looking for?
    // if so, suspend it
    workflowInstanceService.SuspendWorkflow(instance);
    // or you can terminate it
    workflowInstanceService.TerminateWorkflow(instance);
    There is a similar case:

  • Workflow not getting triggered from Action definition in CRMD_ORDER

    Hello Experts,
    I have created a workflow which should send mail to partner team in a Change Request.This workflow should be triggered when a particular Zaction is performed on the CR.Zaction is created properly and my workflow is also assigned to it.I have also followed OSS note-733675 and created a workflow container with name "BUSINESSOBJECT" to get the application data into my workflow when the action is performed.My workflow is a background processing one.
    I have tested it separately by providing GUID foreground and it works perfectly fine and mail is sent to partner team.But when i perform the action,mails are not getting triggered nor the workflow.I am not even able to check the logs.I am not even able to know if all the action has triggered my workflow.Kindly help.Would appreciate your contribution.
