Data in tabular format in Work Item

[Former Member]

hello,

Can i show data in below format in task description.

Currently i am showing data in work item in this format (without any grids)

Please guide me if this is possible and if yes , then how.?

The answer is unfortunately no, you can not display data in tabular format in the sap business workplace, in theory this could be done using html tags, but the displaying the the data in the SAP inbox reads the tags wrongly.

possible partial workarounds are:  using a table of a single field (swf_lines for example) and writing the headers line by line.

failed idoc 1 status 51

failed idoc 2 status 51

...

changing the BSP sending the workflow mail in the extended notification - here you can add html tags - but this will only work for the mail.

we have made a similar request (to enable tables among other things) in the customer connection program, you can join the requests in  http://influence.sap.com/workflow2015

okay.

While searching on internet i came across this example.

This shows the same approach may be of what you are talking about. HTML tags.

Can't we create grid here using HTML tags.?

in theory this could be done using html tags, but the displaying the the data in the SAP inbox reads the tags wrongly. 

What does that mean. why it would read tags wrongly.?

Display in the pretty ancient SAP Business Workplace is pretty tricky to change to your liking.

In extended notification you have a lot more control on the display of workitems in your email inbox.
