<br><font size=2 face="Tahoma">We’ve been able to use the backend workflow
for all cases but one. </font>
<br><font size=2 face="Tahoma"> </font>
<br><font size=2 face="Tahoma">The one case is when a manager is Rejecting
a Business Trip. In the backend workflow, the user clicks on the
Reject button in a decision step (BO-Decision, Method-Process) and then
immediately following a window appears where they are expected to enter
the reason(BO-SOFM, Method-Compose). These are two separate tasks
in the workflow. </font>
<br><font size=2 face="Tahoma"> </font>
<br><font size=2 face="Tahoma">In the UWL, I can present the approval/rejection
decision along with the reason for rejection text box in one view by entering
in the XML configuration an override for the decision task. However,
I need to skip the subsequent step that asks for user to enter a reason
for rejection. This is the oft-mentioned “Advance with Dialog”
issue in UWL.<br>
</font>
<br><font size=2 face="Tahoma">By and large, the workflow without modification,
has functioned just fine in the UWL.</font>

Hi</font><font size=3 face="Times New Roman"> <br>
</font><font size=2 face="Arial"><br>
I posted a request earlier regarding Trip Approval. Your post has raised
a couple of questions. We also will be using Portal and SapGui as entry
points.</font><font size=3 face="Times New Roman"> </font><font size=2 face="Arial"><br>
I am familiar with the workflow process in the backend R3 system but not
touched the Portal side. I was assuming the workflow developed in the backend,
would be the same one used if decision were made in Portal or SAPGUI, but
it sounds from your post that there are restrictions, could you explain
and point me to further documentation of what these are and how I overcome
them, before I start the development.</font><font size=3 face="Times New Roman">
<br>
</font><font size=2 face="Arial"><br>
Many Thanks</font><font size=3 face="Times New Roman"> <br>

We are rolling out Travel Management through ESS to our users on EP 7.0
and ECC 6.0. We’ve had our own custom workflow for approval/rejection
of Travel Management expenses which has been operational through the SAPGUI
for years. Because of extensive role resolution logic in the backend
workflow, I’d like to utilize the same workflow regardless of whether
the decisions are processed through the SAPGUI or the Portal. However,
I’d have to put some decisions in the workflow to test whether an approval
was done via the UWL to bypass tasks with SOFM-Compose method. It
should be easy. <br>
</font><font size=3 face="Times New Roman"> </font><font size=2 color=blue face="Tahoma"><br>
For the Approve/Reject in the UWL, the USERDECISIONHANDLER in the XML file,
has worked fine. Specifying the UserDecisionNote as mandatory has
allowed me to require text entry for a rejection as well. </font><font size=3 face="Times New Roman">
</font><font size=2 color=blue face="Tahoma"><br>
</font><font size=3 face="Times New Roman"> </font><font size=2 color=blue face="Tahoma"><br>
Now, to the crux of the issue. I need to get a value back to the
workflow container to indicate that the decision task was performed in
the UWL. The UPDATINGCONTAINERHANDLER would seem to fit the bill
nicely. Yet, I can’t make the UPDATINGCONTAINERHANDLER work
with the USERDECISIONHANDLER. The XML is below. Is this possible?</font><font size=3 face="Times New Roman">
</font><font size=2 color=blue face="Tahoma"><br>
</font><font size=3 face="Times New Roman"> </font><font size=2 color=blue face="Tahoma"><br>
Or, should I just can it and get a custom iView created to do what I need?
We’ve already started to go down that path…</font><font size=3 face="Times New Roman">
