Thanks to Richard Hirsch for his blog Guided Procedures Explorations: Process Runtime Dashboard   (The specified item was not found.). The code was very helpful in writing this application.

A Generic Tool for Process Monitoring:

This blog explains a generic WebDynpro Application and a generic iView which can be adapted to all GP applications. End users are more concerned about the applications they are responsible for. End users can monitor application specific runtime instances and step by step status of each action. This application gives an easy view to In Process and Completed instances.

The application looks as

1) Create WebDynpro Application in NWDS:

- Create a WebDynpro project and application in NWDS.

- Create the following context in Component Controller and map it to View Controller.

- Create the layout as below:

The following is the code in Component Controller:

MONITORING_USER_ID should be a valid Portal user id and should be Administrator or Owner of the process. This field is optional, if no value is specified the program will consider the current logged in user. User ID can be configured if the application has single user as Administrator or as Owner.

2) Create generic iView template in Portal for the above WebDynpro Application:

Once the WebDynpro application is ready, create a WebDynpro iView in Portal. Make sure the following properties are set so that the iView can be reused for all GP applications.

!https://weblogs.sdn.sap.com/weblogs/images/13663/GP2A.gif|height=82|alt=image|width=511|src=https://...!

Now we are ready with Generic Template. It's time to create Application specific iViews.

3) Create GP Application Specific iViews in Portal using above template.

While creating Application specific iView select the template created in previous step.

4) Configure runtime parameters for specific GP application.

Once the application specific iView is created edit the Application Parameters:
