My Inbox : All Items 0 Count Solution

Scenario : All Items Shows 0 count in Fiori Tile, even after all configurations.

For people facing issue with ALL ITEMS Tile in Fiori My Inbox. Many people here are seen with issues where the items are present in SAP Inbox, but after all the necessary configurations and resolving all basis related issue, Fiori Tile shows 0 Items.

1st step : Always check SCN SAP Fiori My Inbox page : SAP Fiori – My Inbox

Above page has all the updated documents on configurations required end to end.

2nd step : Next is your Help.sap page to check for missing configurations : App Implementation: My Inbox – SAP Fiori for Request Approvals 1.0 – SAP Library

Now if you still see this screen in your Fiori Launchpad :

Click on Deactivate : (Motive here is to get all items in SAP Fiori – My Inbox. If the task filter is enabled, only workflow tasks which are configured in “Maintain task name and decision options’ will show up in Fiori Inbox

Referring the help.sap page : Workflow Settings – SAP NetWeaver Gateway – SAP Library


///////////  ——-


Enable Task Filter

This activity allows you to activate or deactivate the task filter.

By default, the filter is deactivated.

When the task filter is set to Active:

  • Sending Notifications: Only notifications of items that were configured using the Maintain Task Names and Decision Options IMG activity or the Workflow Pattern Customization IMG activity are sent.
  • The SAP NetWeaver Gateway Workflow service only receives items that were configured using the Maintain Task Names and Decision Options IMG activity or the Workflow Pattern Customization IMG activity.


******

When the task filter is not set to active:

  • All notifications are sent.
  • All items are read.

      Hi Tejas,

      We have configured the standard My Inbox Fiori app. We have referred to the link App Implementation: My Inbox - SAP Fiori for Request Approvals 1.0 - SAP Library and done all the configuration steps mentioned here.

      In spite of disabling the task filter as you have mentioned in this blog, we still see the count on the My Inbox tile as 0 (also the user has work items in the SAP Inbox in the backend system). There are no errors i the browser's developer console and the gateway error log.

      Any pointers where else we can check to see why we do not get the correct item count?

      Regards,

      Saurabh

      Kindly execute the Service URL which you see in the tile configuration page. If it gives you the count, your system alias configurations are good. If the service gives error, check your system alias.

      https://blogs.sap.com/2015/03/19/fiori-my-inbox-step-3-checking-system-configuration/

      I see the tile count is still loading for you. Please check that first. Also share snapshot of system alias

      Hi Tejas, We had done the configuration for maintaining task and decision options in the gateway system instead of the back end system. Once we did this configuration in the back end ERP system the My Inbox app now shows the work item details.  Regards, Saurabh
