Steps to remove tabs from UWL

By default we get below tabs in uwl.

If we need
to remove any tab, we can do it by following below given steps:

  1. Go to iview properties and check the
    property useNavigationId, as shown in fig below:

Note down the value ‘’com.sap.pct.erp.mss.Main”, this is nothing but an xml file.

2. Go to System Administration -> System Configuration -> Universal Worklist
Administration
.

Click on Click to Manage Item Types and View Definitions under Universal
Worklist Content Configuration

As shown below:

Fill the Configuration name :  com.sap.pct.erp.mss.Main

Check the high priority.

Browse the file. And upload.

8) Next, message would be displayed that the file already exists. Choose yes to overwrite and save.

Now, check the uwl iview for the result.

Note:
if you are checking by any role. Then please ensure that the same iview is linked
to the role for which you checked the property in step 1.
