Hi Monique,
Not sure if this is relevant, but have authorizations and/or user parameters
(WLC) changed?
I would guess that if you were not authorized to drill into the workflow
details, the bottom of the pane would be blanked out?
Really WAG though. Below is a very valuable piece of info on WLC parms.
User Parameter WLC - Workflow: User-specific settings
The User Parameter WLC controls various aspects of how workflow and several
workflow related activities behaive for the user for whom it is set. At
logon, the value of WLC is read into the structure SWLUSERPAR and held in
memory. Whenever a relevant workflow activity is called for that user it,
by design, checks the values in SWLUSERPAR and behaives in the way
specified in the WLC parameter at logon. The number of characters and
values allowable (or at least that will be used) in WLC is driven by the
Components (fields) and their length in the structure SWLUSERPAR. As of
ECC 6 EhP4 WLC consists of 16 Components (fields) all of which are one
character except for the Component LOG_ENTRIES which has 5 characters. As a
result the WLC Parameter currently has 20 characters. (15-1 character + 1-5
character). All of the 1 character Components are based upon the Domain
XFELD which allows only 2 values, X=Yes and " "=No.
At my current customer we have set the vaue for WLC to "X X XX X 00000
". For purposes of analyses it is easier to interpret if you replace each
space with an asterisk which gives you "X***X**XX***X*00000*".
Refer to the Structure SWLUSERPAR and the Column "Value from WLC" to
understand how it is interpreted.
I don't understand the Component LOG_ENTRIES or what it does.

I realize that some of the Short Descriptions are kind of vague. The
following is a list that I found on the Web of character positions and their
effect from an earlier SAP release and consequently covers only 11 of the
current 20 positions. It is a bit clearer but its not official SAP
information.
Position 11: No HTML in execution of ...
Position 10: No tips & tricks ...
Position 9: WI user view with ActiveX
Position 8: WF log user view with ActiveX
Position 7: WF log technical view / user view wo ActX
Position 6: Display ... texts in logon language
Position 5: seems to always be set - but may be changed somewhere else
Position 4: Enable forwarding ... to several users
Position 3: WI technical view / user view wo ActX
Position 2: Double-clicking on an object ....
Position 1: seems to always be set - but may be changed somewhere else

Our users should be on IE 7. I have IE 7 and am able to see the bottom
portion. What about Java or anything else that would impact the preview?

Hi Monique,
The Internet Explorer version may be influencing this as the bottom part of
the screen is most likely HTML based.
Check if the users who have this issue are using the latest IE version.
Regards,
Eddie

We are on ECC 6.0 and I'm hoping someone else on this group may have
encountered the same issue and has a resolution. I apologize if this is a
very basic question but I don't know where else to turn.
Our users are able to pull up the workflow overview from within a document.
The screen is broken up into two parts (Workflows for Current Context and
Current Data for Started Workflows). The second part of the screen is not
appearing for some reason. Nothing has been changed on the security side.
I have asked the users to try on a different computer and everything is
fine. Obviously, it is something on their computer but I don't know what.
What is required to see the bottom section of the workflow?
I've attached an image of the screen that users should be seeing.
