SAP GRC Access Control (Create Z WebDynpro for Approval)

[Former Member]

Dear all.

I have already read this thread about how to perform a change at WebDynpro level for all the users:

http://scn.sap.com/community/grc/blog/2013/09/04/customizing-access-request-and-approval-screens-in-...

I am really interested in how to modify the Approval screen not the Request Screen. And my requirement is modify Approval Screen for only certain users.

What i want is when a user open their tasks the new pop-up window opened is the Z screen Approval.

So what i have done is i have created a new Z application for GRFN_POWL_INBOX and then i put this application into a Link for my Launchpad.

I have also created a Z application for the Approval screen. The i have a Z screen for Work Inbox and another Z screen for Approval screen. The problem is i don't know how to link this new Approval screen with the Work Inbox screen. I want when i push the button over a task the Z window is called instead of the standar one as you can see into the image below:

Kind regards and thank you.

Hi Sara,

As you mentioned that you've copied the exisiting application to custom application. If so, have you tried to run that application independently( i.e direclty ) in explorer by giving the URL?

I think you have given COMPONENT CONFIGURATION instead of APPLICATION CONFIGURATION in launchpad.

Pls let me know the update so that i can guide you,.

Thanks

Hi Katrice.

Yes i have copy both application:

• GRFN_POWL_INBOX into a new one
• and GRAC_OIF_REQUEST_APPROVAL into a new
  

So what i want now is when i access to ZGRFN_POWL_INBOX if i push in a new task then my ZGRAC_OIF_REQUEST_APPROVAL application is called instead of the standard one.

I dont know how to link the Z inbox created with the Z window created for the approval.

Kind regards and thank you.

Hi Sara,

Better you can go with new development of custom inbox. Because AFAIK we cannot push workitems from standard into Z-Inbox.

I have came across the same scenario.But i've developed new custom workinbox with all required modifications.

For this,you can use method IF_POWL_FEEDER~GET_OBJECTS( ) of class CL_GRFN_POWL_INBOX.

And following is the code

DATA: obj                      TYPE REF TO cl_grfn_powl_inbox.
DATA : lw_visible_fields  TYPE powl_visible_cols_sty.
DATA: it_visible_fields    TYPE powl_visible_cols_tty,
          lt_results               TYPE grfn_t_unified_powl,
          lw_results             TYPE grfn_s_unified_powl,
          lt_messages          TYPE powl_msg_tty.

     CONSTANTS lc_subject          TYPE string VALUE 'Subject'.
    CONSTANTS lc_due_date         TYPE string VALUE 'Due Date'.
    CONSTANTS lc_created_by       TYPE string VALUE 'Created By'.
    CONSTANTS lc_created_on       TYPE string VALUE 'Created On'.
    CONSTANTS lc_status               TYPE string VALUE 'Status'.
    CONSTANTS lc_req_type         TYPE string VALUE 'Request Type'.
    CONSTANTS lc_created_by_fld   TYPE char30 VALUE 'CREATED_BY'.
    CONSTANTS lc_created_on_fld   TYPE char30 VALUE 'CREATED_ON'.
    CONSTANTS lc_due_date_fld     TYPE char30 VALUE 'DUE_DATE'.
    CONSTANTS lc_status_desc_fld  TYPE char30 VALUE 'STATUS_DESC'.
    CONSTANTS lc_subject_fld      TYPE char30 VALUE 'SUBJECT'.
    CONSTANTS lc_subject_fld1     TYPE string VALUE 'SUBJECT'.

lw_visible_fields-colid = lc_created_by_fld ."'CREATED_BY'.
    APPEND lw_visible_fields TO it_visible_fields.

    CLEAR lw_visible_fields.
    lw_visible_fields-colid = lc_created_on_fld ."'CREATED_ON'.
    APPEND lw_visible_fields TO it_visible_fields.

    lw_visible_fields-colid = lc_due_date_fld." 'DUE_DATE'.
    APPEND lw_visible_fields TO it_visible_fields.

    CLEAR lw_visible_fields.
    lw_visible_fields-colid = lc_status_desc_fld."'STATUS_DESC'.
    APPEND lw_visible_fields TO it_visible_fields.

    CLEAR lw_visible_fields.
    lw_visible_fields-colid = lc_subject_fld . "'SUBJECT'.
    APPEND lw_visible_fields TO it_visible_fields.

*----->data retrieval for represented object type
    CREATE OBJECT obj.

    CALL METHOD obj->if_powl_feeder~get_objects
      EXPORTING
        i_username       = sy-uname
        i_applid         = 'GRFN_INBOX'
        i_type           = 'GRFN_INBOX'
        i_selcrit_values = lt_selcrit_values
        i_langu          = sy-langu
        i_visible_fields = it_visible_fields
      IMPORTING
        e_results        = lt_results
        e_messages       = lt_messages.

Thanks

Hi Katrice.

Many thanks for your help. I am not an expert over ABAP programming and i would like to indicate in my functional design as many details as i could.

You mean for example create a Z get_objects  and then use it into the if_powl_feeder

CALL METHOD obj->if_powl_feeder~zget_objects

Kind regards and thank you again.

Hi Sara,

If you use that method in your z-development, you'll get all work items of logged in user into his z-inbox.

There you can proceed as per your requirement.Pls let me know if you need futher assistance.Always happy to help you.
