Workitem is not removed from User Inbox

Hi,
There is requirement, when the PR is created by user, first it has to go his department Head and then to Manager, AGM, GM, etc. There are different departments.
I'm maintaining organizational structure and giving positions in Release Strategy. Now how can i know who has created and to whom it has to go first. Shall i create different release strategy for that ?? Or is there any other way ??
And i tried to create custom workflow and using two release steps instead of one. And giving Rule in my first release step. And in second release step i'm using the strategy. When i create the PR and release, it is not removing from User Inbox.
Do anyone know what could be the problem ??

Hi,
From your requirement, its not a good idea to have all department heads assigned to a single position.
But, you can have different positons for different departments and the association between department and the corresponding position number can be maintained in  ztable. Then have a custom rule based on function module which will make a call to this ztable and find the corresponding postion given the department of user, get this position out and use it as agent assignment in step. However to use above first you should be able to find the Deparment to which a given user belongs to.
the position that you are talking about in your question, is it a position with relevance to HR structure or is it just that you have created for workflow purpose. In general its a good idea to have bit strong dependency with HR structure rather than going for workflow specific positions. If your position is a HR position then probably with bit of reengineering the HR organization structure with respect to your departments would be good and with a good design of org structure you can also get rid of any new custom table to maintain the relation between department and corresponding position.
Good Luck !!

ooops !! many replies came in while drafting this mail itself, i guess rule using custom table already tried !!

  • PO Approval Items Workitems are not removed from the Universal Worklist UWL

    Hi,
    Certain of our purchase orders require approval, they are sent to the relevant approver via workflow to their SAP inbox (SBWP) and universal worklist.
    When the user executes the workitem (Approve or Reject) The workitem should be removed from the universal worklist and SBWP when refreshed.
    The problem we experiencing is that the Workitems are not removed from the UWL after they have been executed. The SBWP is behaving correctly and the items are removed.
    It is not all the workitems that have this problem, only certain ones - but there is no pattern.
    Thanks for the help.

    Hi,
    The user B approved the PR accessing the transaction SBWP or via PR transaction directly?
    If via PR transaction directly, then your workflow needs a Wait Event step.

  • Deleted message not removed from iPhone Inbox

    Since updating my iPhone 3G to 4.01 I have found that when I delete messages from the inbox the messages are not completely removed from the inbox. I am left with a blank unread message. The only way I can completely delete is to turn the phone off and restart. Is anybody else having this problem? I have also found that I lose service in places I have been able to use the phone.

  • Items are not removed from Workflow Inbox

    Hi all,
    Im having problem with our workflow. Below are the details
    SCENARIO:
    User A creates a PR. The PR is then forwarded to user B for approval. Once the PR is approved by user B, it is forwarded back to user A for notification purposes. User A then executes the PR and it is automatically forwarded to user C for processing.
    THE PROBLEM:
    When user B approves the PR, his/her inbox should be cleared once the PR is forwarded to user A. The problem  is that, out of the 45 line items present in the PR, only 38 lines were cleared from the inbox. The remaining 7 items were retained. However, when we try to view the PR from user A, there are 45 line items and they are complete.
    QUESTION:
    What causes the 7 line items to be retained in user A's inbox? How do we clear them?
    Any output will be highly appreciated.
    Thanks

    2. SUS Vendor creates the PO Response SUS system, POR Value is greater Than PO Value
    3. Approval Work item will go to Buyers of purchasing group
    4. Buyer trying to approving The PO Response from his approval inbox
    Regards,

    what all buttons do you see when you open the workitem in the approval inbox.
    as far as i know , there will only button 'transfer response to purchase order'..
    what happens if you click the above button.

  • After deleting users they are not removed from portal30.wwsec_person

    I am building a customized script to carry on users self registration.
    the script is going great and user is created and i can log into portal
    successfully with this new created user.
    I relogin as portal administrator and delete this new user and now if i tried
    to list portal users I cant see the user.
    But when I try to rerun my script to recreate this user again it fails when I
    investigated I found that it fails because the entry of this user is removed
    from portal30_sso.wwsec_person while it still exists in portal30.wwsec_person
    so the script fails as there is duplicate in primary key.
    Is this a bug in portal 309 that when the user is deleted it is not removed
    from portal30.wwsec_person

    This is actually a combination of intended behavior/design and a bug.
    Let me first explain why there is a user in both the PORTAL30_SSO schema as well as the PORTAL30 schema.
    The definition of the user, that can log in, and defines the single sign-on account, is the user's entry in the
    WWSEC_PERSON$ table in the PORTAL30_SSO schema. The SSO server actually just uses a subset of the
    columns in this table -- those defined in the WWSSO_SSO_USER view.
    The same table exists in the PORTAL30 schema, because there is a lot of common infrastructure code
    shared by both applications (Login Server, and Portal). The Security and Session Management code
    is common, and this code includes the dependency on the WWSEC_PERSON$ table.
    Now, assuming that the code was independent (for the sake of argument), why do we still have an entry
    for the user in both schemas? As I mentioned earlier, the user entry in the SSO schema is the "master".
    The SSO server can have multiple partner applications connected to it. Indeed, on my.oracle.com, the
    login server there has at least 4 portals hooked up to it, and a few other non-Portal partner applications,
    such as Oracle Mobile.
    Each partner application may have a local user profile that it uses to store application specific attributes
    of the user. This is stuff that the Login Server is not interested in, and could in no way predetermine for
    all conceivable partner applications. So, it is not unreasonable for each partner application to also have
    a user record which stores additional attributes of the user (not related to user authentication), and which
    can be used to reference other user-related data. For example in the Portal, all the user's privileges
    and group memberships are tied to the Portal's user record (foreign key constraints). So, the Portal
    being just one partner application of the Login Server, it adhere's to this model and has a user entry
    in it's schema corresponding to the user entry in the Login Server.
    When a user logs on and accesses a partner application for the first time, the partner application (read Portal)
    is expected to automatically create a local profile entry for the user on demand. The Portal does this.
    In 3.0.9 and previous versions, to delete a user, you need to delete the user in the Login Server AND the Portal.
    The only way to do this is to first delete the user in the Login Server, using the User Portlet.
    Then type the user's name into the Portal User Profile portlet (they won't be in the LOV anymore since
    you just deleted them from the login server), and click Edit, then Reset To Defaults (this means delete).
    You will then get a User Not Found error, since the page is trying to go back to show the details about this user.
    (All this has been fixed in 9.0.2 v2, by the way).

  • Yahoo mail not removed from inbox ios7

    I have an iPhone 4s with ios 7.0.2.  I have 2 different yahoo accounts that are showing the same issue.  If I delete or move an email from my yahoo inbox on my PC either via web or mail client, they still show in the inbox on my iPhone.  Even if I manually update the accounts (swipe down) they still are there.  I have tried waiting 10-15 minutes with the same result.  If I use the task manager to close mail and then re start it, they immediately are removed from the inbox.  Has anyone else noticed this issue?

    Check whether the same happens if Preferences > Accounts > Advanced > Remove copy from server is OFF, i.e. if messages aren’t supposed to be removed from the server at all. I’ve seen it reported in other cases that messages were removed from the server even with that setting OFF, but it ended up being a server issue that happened when using other mail clients as well — and IIRC it also was a Yahoo account...
    Try disabling the account in Mail (i.e. turn OFF Preferences > Accounts > Advanced > Enable this account), or just don’t run Mail at all, set up the account in another mail client such as Thunderbird, and see what happens.
    If you set up the account in Thunderbird, refuse to download anything when asked to do so immediately afterwards (so that you can customize the server settings first), then in the account’s Server Settings turn ON Leave messages on server if you don’t want the messages to be removed from the server as a result of downloading them with Thunderbird. If messages that you would like to have in Mail end up being removed from the server nevertheless, you may use Eudora Mailbox Cleaner to import them from Thunderbird into Mail.

  • Deleted attachments are not removed from Content Server

    We have setup Content Server to store business documents and create attachments in documents in CO. Both types are stored ok and can be opened without any problems. After deleting them though, they disappear from the Attachment List but when looking in CS, attachments created on the document still exist in CS. Stored business documents on the other hand are removed properly.
    Looking at statistics in CSADMIN shows that the deletion of the created attachment does not increment the "delete" counter.
    Any ideas on why the created attachments are not removed from CS upon deletion?
    Thanks

    We have solved this issue now. By design, the attachments are not removed directly from the content server upon deletion; Instead you will need to run report RSBCS_REORG to completely remove them from the Content Server.

  • Long time ago I trialed elements 9  and could not remove from Programs; still can't

    Long time ago I trialed Elements 9  and could not remove from Programs at the time; still can't?
    I didn't go forward with '9' because of its size and it didn't appear to provide advantages for the cost.
    How do I uninstall it when conventional methods fail. Message received in Windows Installer is, ' The feature you are trying to use is on a network resource that is unavailable.' Elements 9 cannot be used.

    " When I did this, my library showed all the music I have "purchased" from itunes but did not have the music that I downloaded a long time ago through itunes from my old CDs."
    Correct.
    " How can I get that music to show up in my library now on my new computer?  "
    Copy it from your old computer or your backup copy of your old computer.
    The sync is one way - computer to ipod.

  • Machines not removed from AD when reimaged - Not Installing client- how to resolve client not installing

    Hello, i have across a machine that does not have the sccm agent installed, but states on the server that it is installed. Now I am assuming that someone in the team reimaged but did not remove from AD. If this is the case, how do i resolve this? I have
    2,000 clients so need to know how widespread this is.
    i checked the client logs but there are no ccm/sccm entries. I know i could probably remove from SCCM then run a Discovery Method, but if there are more out there, i need to find a fix potentially. The client is not installed on the image. Boundarys all
    set ok.

    You could create a new collection with a query to find out when a clients last heartbeat was or maybe hardware inventory data age? This isn't going to completely solve the problem, but it will narrow down which clients your after. The queries I have below
    have an age value of greater than or equal to 30 days. Just increase this obviously to query for clients that haven't reported back in longer amounts of time.
    Heartbeat Query
    select SMS_R_SYSTEM.ResourceID,SMS_R_SYSTEM.ResourceType,SMS_R_SYSTEM.Name,SMS_R_SYSTEM.SMSUniqueIdentifier,SMS_R_SYSTEM.ResourceDomainORWorkgroup,SMS_R_SYSTEM.Client from SMS_R_System where AgentName in ("Heartbeat Discovery") and DATEDIFF(day,AgentTime,GetDate())>=30
    Hardware Inventory Scan Date Query
    select SMS_R_SYSTEM.ResourceID,SMS_R_SYSTEM.ResourceType,SMS_R_SYSTEM.Name,SMS_R_SYSTEM.SMSUniqueIdentifier,SMS_R_SYSTEM.ResourceDomainORWorkgroup,SMS_R_SYSTEM.Client from SMS_R_System where ResourceId in (select SMS_R_System.ResourceID from SMS_R_System
    inner join SMS_G_System_WORKSTATION_STATUS on SMS_G_System_WORKSTATION_STATUS.ResourceID = SMS_R_System.ResourceId where DATEDIFF(dd,SMS_G_System_WORKSTATION_STATUS.LastHardwareScan,GetDate()) > 30)
    Its also likely that clients in this situation will be marked by Config Manager as inactive. So you could also just sort by your inactive clients but this again will have a % of error as your inactive clients may be a result of workstations being off your
    network for a prolonged period of time or simply turned off.
    If you can ping a client that has a hardware inventory age of greater than 30 days but you have a client policy to run it say daily, then you could argue they fall into the category your after.
    You could also look at this outside of the Console all together. A possible option could be to use a startup / login script to check for the presence of the Config Manager client and then install it if its not (there are quite a few about). If you're not
    comfortable with this, then you could use a startup / login script to check for the presence of the client and write say a hostname or something similar to a text file.
    Cheers
