Make UWL Attachments Invisible

Tue Jun 22 18:57:41 EDT 2010

Paul,

  The attachments were the Objects within the Step's Container,
which in these WF's it was the "CL_HRASR00_WF_STEP_OBJECT" object
that was showing.

>> Jeff,
>> For the business object changes you made in transaction...
>>
>> You have to press the "Re-Register" button in the UWL Admin iview
>> and clear the UWL cache (also from the UWL Admin iview) for the
>> relevant System Alias before your changes in transaction SWFVISU
>> will take effect.  This applies to all changes made with SWFVISU.
>>
>> The solution described will hide the automatically attached
>> object.
>>
>> If ,however, you want to hide the "Manage Attachments" and "Add
>> Memo" features in the UWL for certain tasks then you need to
>> create
>> a UWL configuration file for those tasks using the ItemType tag.
>>
>> For HCM P&F you can copy the provided HRAdmin file to get the
>> idea.
>> Copy the full action tag for the relevant button from the
>> uwl.standard file into the Actions tag section of the relevant
>> ItemType tag and add/change the property "display_order_priority"
>> to
>> the value "uwlExcludeFromPreviewDetail".
>>
>> Upload the file with a higher priority than the standard HRAdmin
>> file and clear the cache.
>>
>> Easy when you know how.
>> Hope that helps.
