Launching a BSP page iView from UWL workitem

Hi Amit,

Most of the standard applications with specific UWL config files such as HCM Processes and Forms use Iviews with the UWL in the way you describe - so I don't think it's a restriction.

But there's really not a callback as such from the UWL - we launch a task execution app in a new window - it does its work - and then we close the window, i.e. more of a stateless approach as we are in the wonderful world of web, rather than in stateful GUI.

All you should be looking for is the parameters going from the UWL to your Iview/BSP page on launch, e.g. WI_ID holding the work item id.
The called application performs any actions it needs to using the parameters passed,  including updating the work item status.

What do you think you are missing?
Regards,
Jocelyn

Hi Jocelyn,
Thanks you for your response.
I did try this, however, I do not seem to have the necessary call back url values being passed when I try to do this from UWL.
In fact, I have noted that the same issue arises when I try to launch a BSP page too. Are there any restrictions on using the WS handler with UWL by any chance as the whole thing seems to work al-right with SAP business workplace.

Regards,
Amit

Hi Amit,
Ok well as you are already using SWFVISU you should notice that there is a visualization type "IView" with a parameter "DYNPARAM" where you pass your list of parameters.   Separate parameters with & as per usual HTML encoding practice.

Jocelyn

Subject: Launching a BSP page iView from UWL workitem

Hi,
I currently have UWL set up in my SAP Portal. I have set up my UWL so that when a user clicks on the workitem, the user is re-directed to a BSP application.
I did this using task visualisation from transaction SWFVISU.

However, the business has now decided that they want to create an iView for the BSP application, so that it is available in the portal itself.

I wanted to know if it is possible that clicking on my work item in the UWL takes me to this iView in the portal (which is actually a BSP page), rather then opening a BSP application separately?
How would the parameter passing work in this case?

Any suggestions or solutions welcome!

Thanks
