Workflows not working in production

Hi,
I have developed some workflows which are working fine in DEV and QUA environments. However, in PROD they are not working. I activated the event linkage and traced the event via transaction SWEL. The findings are that an error occurs in one of my tasks. I find this strange due to the fact that everything is working in DEV and QUA. Anyone who has some good ideas what could be the problem?
Thanks in advance.

Dear all,
it turned out that the object was not identical in PROD and the DEV, QUA systems. In other words, the workflows are working correctly but creating an error due to incorrect business data.

Functions (back & stop ) are not working in production environment

Hi All ...
Some functions (back and stop) are not working in production environment, where as those functions are working in QA testing environement..please answer.. what could be the reasons for not working some functions
in production environement.
Regards,,
Krishna

Hi,
Based on the error message, it is related to the item in your production environment, then the workflow will occur exception.
As your workflow worked perfectly in your other environments, I suggest you can check if some item has is valid in the document library.
You can try to use Fiddler to track the web request and find in which item the workflow occurs exception.
Here are some detailed articles for your reference:

Customer Workflows Not Working from SRM Inbox

Hi everyone,
We are upgrdaing our EBP v3.5 system to SRM 5.0 (SRM SERVER 5.5 SP 5).
We are using integrated ITS and have many bespoke workflows which need to executeable in the SRM inbox via the integrated ITS and ultimately the portal (EP 7.0).
We have various issues with our bespoke workflows not working. The 2 errors we have found are:
1. When the users click on the workitem from the SRM inbox they sometimes see 'Service Cannot be Reached' error.
2. Other times they see the workitem details with no user decision buttons shown.
3. Other times the user decision buttons are shown but if the user clicks on one, they see a blank page with text "workitem currently locked by user WF_BATCH" at the top. This is an 'advance with dialog' task which works fine via SAPGUI.
Any ideas on any of the specific issues, or anything which we need to do generally to get custom workitems to be executeable via the ITS?
Thanks a lot,
Nick

Hi abhijit,
I checked that but I set it to blank in debug mode..but its still disappearing...the button disappears after pressing enter on error message.
actually the BADI when I implemented there is one method where I set E_ADD_ON_ACTIVE flag to 'X' to bring that button(recommended by SAP). that method is not getting called...

SWL_SUBSTITUTION_DEFINE does not work in production

hi guys,
we have tested to set substitution in qas using FM SWL_SUBSTITUTION_DEFINE and it work. Somehow it does not work in production ? we have checked and set the same setting as if in qas but still user is not able to see the PR in her inbox. pls help

>The assigned agent is meant for classification of SOT
I am not sure that you mean by this? Is there a classification called SOT defined in the system, and the task has been assigned to this classification? If yes, then you need to check the substitution that it is active for this type of tasks (or that it is active for "all" tasks). You should be able to see this also in the sbustitution table (I mean the type of substitution).
Or do you mean that there is some authorisation role called "SOT" in the system, and the possible agents of this task are the users having this role? Then you should be able to see all the users in PFTC under the task.

Karri
PS. Remember also to execute transaction SWU_OBUF to refresh the buffers. Maybe it is some strange buffer problem...

Push notifications not working with production (apnagent nodes Js)

Hi,
When we tested the push notification in sandbox using apnagent node JS it worked well. But when we switch the sandbox to production it is not working. When we debug the server side we are not getting any errors also in production, but push notifications are delivered to the devices.
First we thought it is a certificate issues and then revoked all the certificates in the portal and created new certificates still no luck.
Can any one tell me why push notifications are not working in production.
Thanks in advance!

You're welcome. The request has been sent in. I first saw your post in the Using Apple Support Communities Forum, now I see it's been moved to the iPod Forum, hopefully it will get moved again.

From your description, I know you want to set cookie value as httpOnly but it is not work.
Please try to add codes below to your global.asax file:
<SCRIPT language="C#" runat="server">
protected void Session_Start(Object sender, EventArgs e)
try
if (Request.IsSecureConnection == true)
                Response.Cookies ["ASP.NET_SessionId"].Secure = true;

Purchase order release strategy Workflow not working

Hi All,
I am working on PO Approval release strategy and it is not working fine . The release strategy set up is configured by my functional consultant . I just copied the standard workflow template WS20000075 and making changes to my custom workflow template . When ever po is created an event "RELEASESTEPCREATED" get triggered and the first approver receives an workitem and when he approves it goes to Second Approver and it is working fine . But when rejected then a notification email goes to initiator . Now when an initiator login into ME22N and made any changes ( even material text change ) in it then again "RELEASESTEPCREATED" event getting triggered . But I need to trigger my workflow only when there is change in PO Net value .
Kindly help me how to achieve this functionality .
Thanks and regards
Dilip

Hi Vikram,
There is already an existing entry for BUS2012 with event CHANGED against the change doc EINKBELEG .
Acutlly when login as initiator and try to change PO through ME22N here are my observations :
case 1: When Buyer click on " Cancel Reject " button and do any changes ( even text change ) then RELEASESTEPCREATED and CHANGED events are triggering . But since the event linkaged is set to RELEASESTEPCREATED workflow get restarted again.
Even the CHANGE event does'nt have 'RELEASECODE' as parameter to restart workflow .
Case 2: When Buyer doesn't click on " Cancel Rejection" buttion and do any changes then only CHANGE event get triggered
which do nothing since there is no event linkage .
Is to click on " Cancel Reject" button mandatory ? . But even though we make " Cancel Reject" as Button mandatory then RELEASESTEPCREATED Button triggering for any change but we need to trigger it for only net Value change .
Thanks and regards,.

SPD 2013 Workflow not working

Hello,
I'm running into a very interesting issue, we have a 2013 custom list that has some 2010 and 2013 workflows associated with it. Just until recently the workflows were working fine, but now only 2010 workflows are working.
I updated one of the 2013, tried to publish it but then I canceled the process of publishing it because I had to make a new update.... not sure if this flipped the switch on these but now even if I create new ones in SPD they will not run. Also if
I try to run in manually I get a message - "Something went wrong. To try again, reload the page and then start the workflow"(the option for start manually is enabled in SPD 2013). Any help on this will be greatly appreciated!

Hi Ghabib05,
According to your description, my understanding is that you got an error when you ran a SharePoint 2013 workflow.
Afer you made some change in your workflow, whether you re-published the workflow. if not, please publish it, then test again, compare the result.
Please create a new SharePoint 2013 workflow on the list, then test, compare the result.
If this issue only occurred on the specifical workflow, I suggest you create a new workflow instead of the problematic one.
If this issue occurred on all SharePoint 2013 workflow, you can try to re-register workflow service.

Workflow not working in Background Processing

Hi All,
I am relatively new to Workflow. Currently, I am creating Deliveries (preferably in background) once a Sales Order is created. I am using an ABAP Class as the object method to submit the sales order number to the delivery processing method (which just submits basic information to standard SAP transaction VL04). I found that if the execution of the delivery creation task is not in Background Processing (the user manually kicks off the Delivery creation in SBWP) the workflow works as expected and creates the deliveries. However, if the Background Processing is checked, the workflow does not process and does not create a delivery. Is there any specific reason as to why the workflow will not work in background?
Any help you can give would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
John

Hi,
John
See to process a Back ground task, there should be a proper parameter flow.
Please look at the import parameters in the method you are using to process the back ground task..
If proper import parameters are passed then the task will work
This should help..
Thanks,
Shanky

Interactive Heuristic not working in product view

Good morning,
I am trying to run a Heuristic in the Product view (sapapo/rrp3) and I get the following message:
'Stage number algorithm can not be run in the simulation version' but I am trying to run this in our active version, any ideas?
thanks in advance.

Good afternoon,
The Heuristic maintained in the product master is the SAP_PP_002 (Standard lot) which is working but if you go into the header menu and we run the heuristic that replicates our nightly run (this is a 2 step planning run with SAP_PP_020 = Stage numbering algorithm and then SAP_PP_002 = standard lots).
It fails at the first step saying that it can not be executed in the simulation version?
Could this refer to the nature of the process rather than a simulation planning version? I mean due to the process that the number staging algorithm works, may not work running in APO and simulating the results (due to the data is only firmed once saved).

Apple push notification not working in production(Ad Hoc Certificate)

We are totally stucked, please help.
I and my team made a iPhone application, and this is the first time we try on iOS.
Everything is fine, until we submitted our app and became available on app-store -- the push notification service is not working. I searched around the web and tried double check on our app by people's advices, but I couldn't find what's wrong. so this question is posted here.
These are what we did:
We build the application, suppose it's named "AppMaster".
We created AppId on iOS Provisioning Portal called: "pushtest". This ID enabled the Push Notification on both development and production.
We created a Provisioning for development named "AppMasterPushTest" from the appId above. This provisioning is for inside test, everyone of the team installed it on their mac.
Our server is implemented by Java and we used the java-apn package. during the test, We downloaded the certification file for development and write out the .p12 file, and pushed our message to the "sandbox" server by using the package's api -- withSandboxDestination() with that .p12 file. test goes fine, notifications are received.
I thought we were ready, so we created another AppId called "AppMaster", and enable Push Notification only for production. This Id is written in the app's bundle identifier.
We made another Provisioning for production named "appMaster" from AppId in step 5, with distribution method set as "App Store". downloaded it and rebuild app. This one was submitted to apple, and goes alive on app-stroe.
Server side, We downloaded the certification for production and write out the .p12 file again. and made program to push message to production server by using the api -- withProductionDestination(), with the .p12 just been write out.
We installed the app from App Store. sadly, the notification was never delivered.
Is there something we missed? BTW, the id we created in step5 was looks like "XXX.com.company.appname", but in the app's bundle identifier, we just set "com.company.appname" part without prefix. is this could be the problem?
any idea is welcomed.
please be our saver. thanks.

Appropriation Request Workflow Not Working

Dear Friends,
I have been working on Workflow for Approval of Appropriation Request.
Even after carrying out all the required configuration, the process is not working. Following are the symptoms:
1) When appropriation request is submitted for Approval, I am maintaining Ser ids of approvers in the Partner field.The moment I set the For Approval status the Approve Button is deactivated.Even when I log in from the Approver's user ID the button is Deactivated. I believe that, it is so because once workflow is active one can not approve in master data transaction, approval has to be done thru workflow only.
2) When I check the Business Workplace Inboxes of Approvers there are no Workflow related mails.
3) I have also checked in IMA11 that the Work flow has been created.
Ne suggestion on the would be of great value.
Regards,
Seemant

I checked all these.
Still there is no success.
In the appropriation request I have maintained different users as partners ( excluding myself) partners. As per the Workflow the mail should go to inbox of these users. Work flow is getting activated but still its not geting updated in the inboxes of users.
Are there any Basis settings that I may be ignoring.
Also the object type BUS2104 is being used. In forum I have read that this object type is obsolete. May be I can change the object type to BUS2204 ( the new one). If I need to do the same, what are the settings I need to do?
Regards,
Seemant

Workflow not working in Quality Server

Hi All,
I had configured a workflow and it was working fine in the Develpment and then we moved it to Quality.I have tested it several times and it was working fine.In the quality server changes cannot be made and so evertthing would be in Dispaly mode.
But now its not working in Quality where as it is working in Dev.
Can anyone help me on this.
Thanks

B,
As it is not very much clear as of what 'kind' of problem you are facing, following might be possible
Workflow did not tigger at all
- Event Linkage is down - check in SWEC/SWETYPV, also check SWEL for event receiver
- Workflow definition is not activated - check in SWDD, you can always activate
Workflow Triggered but ended in technical error
- check bindings
- check business object(s) are generated
- check methods are free of error
- in case of send mail error, check mail ids
Workflow Tiggered but ended in logical error
- check workflow logic
Hope this helps
MK
