WDA iVews as human tasks

[Former Member]

Hi,

We are using NWCE 7.2.

Out requirement is to use a combination of Webdynpro Java, WebDynpro ABAP and transaction iViews as human tasks within a BPM process.

My question is:

1. Is it possible to use Webdynpro ABAP iViews as human activities? (Any tutorial would be very helpful)

2. How to use transaction iViews as human activities and how can BPM catch button clicks in transaction iViews and pass BPM context to transaction iViews? (Again, Any tutorial would be very helpful)

1. it needs nw7.02 and bpm7.3, i think

2. you can wrap a transaction iview(iframe) as approval UI, but BPM cannot catch anything from iview, bpm can pass some initial parameter to iview.

John Wu,

Do you mean BPM 7.2 does not support Web Dynpro ABAP applications embedded as human tasks?

[junwu · Accepted solution]

it cannot be used directly, i think it can only be wrapped in wd java, like how the transaction iview is embeded in wd java, if you really want to.

@John Wu,

Please explain "wrapped in WD Java"

Do you mean using the iFrame UI, then giving the PCD URL for WD ABAP application?

In that case, how would WD Java know that an event (submit etc.) has taken place in WD ABAP application.

Moreover, how to pass context from BPM to WD ABAP, if Iframe is used?

if those two point is your concern, i can only say , wda is not supported in ce7.2

yes..WDA is not supported in 7.2.

In 7.3, You have the option of assigning either a Web Dynpro for Java (WDJ), Web Dynpro for ABAP (WDA) or Visual Composer (VC) UI component, or an Adobe form to your task. ... [Working with Tasks in 7.3|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw73/helpdata/en/47/54bc6492180924e10000000a42189c/content.htm]

For CE 7.2, You have the option of assigning either a Web Dynpro (WD) or Visual Composer (VC) UI component, or an Adobe form to your task.

Guess, Web Dynpro ABAP components can be assigned as a task in CE 7.3, but dont think iviews are supported.
