UWL Workitem does not display.

[Former Member]

I have created a workitem which launches an abap webdynpro, FITE_EXPENSES. The parameters to launch the webdynpro are not getting passed from the container. I created a separate customized config file to make them available. The workitem to launch the abap webdynpro will appear in the UWL if I do not run the xml configuration file to expose the customized fields. It I run the customized field config. file then the workitem is not visible from the UWL. The workitem is visible in the workplace in R3. I have also created an iview which includes both the xml to access the customized fields and launch the abapwebdynpro iview amd the workitem still does not display in the UWL. I have logged off, cleared cache etc. Does anyone know what the problem is.

Thank you

Tom

I also changed the default view parameter of the UWL iview to point to "uwl.taskTS90000097.SAP_ECC_HumanResources_view".

Below is the XML to run launch the webdynpro:

Syntax was not correct plus the custom attributes from container are case sensitive.

Hi Tom,

We have the exact same issue, would you please let us know how you solved the issue. A copy of the XML file would be helpful.

This isn't really the correct forum for your question. Although you are working with a WDA application - this sounds much more related to UWL configuration than anything to do with WDA itself. I would suggest you post this question in the portal forum.
