Hello everyone!


Welcome back, this is the 3rd series of HOWTO.  Again I suggest to take a closer look at the 1 hour recorded session if you are interested in the demo.

Remark: The contents require beginner level knowledge of NW BPM on 7.1 Ehp1.
 


Scenario 3:  Live workflow status view

 

Solution 

This is a must feature on any workflow tool – and SAP NetWeaver BPM surely offers it out-of-the-box. You have two options on how to use this feature:


Option 1.  In the standard BPM task UI, you will see the generated link which jumps to the graphical workflow status.

By clicking on it you should be able to take a look at the current status:

 

Option 2. You can configure and click on “Process List Viewer” which allows you to search the process you get involved.

Please note in order to present the "Process List Viewer" link, the administrator needs to configure in advance. This is the path to find how to do it:

“Adding the Process List Viewer as a Related Link” in http://help.sap.com/ > SAP NetWeaver > SAP NetWeaver CE > SAP NetWeaver Composition Environment Library > Administrator’s Guide > Configuration of SAP NetWeaver CE > Configuration for CE Additional Components > Configuring Business Process Management > Configuring the Process Desk

 

(Sorry for a long journey, but that is the way it is...:-))

 

So the story today is done. I am keen on your idea of

 - "Very common workflow use cases" but you don't know how to implement them with NW BPM.

So please feel free to drop your common use case if you have any.  We'll be in touch!
