Dear Experts ,
Really looking for you help and support in the below problem .
Iam totally new in the area of FIORI and we are planning to implementing SAP FIORI INBOX.
The first application we have is already developed in R3 to sell any item from our company to the internal employees only.
We have fully costume workflow for this process. When employee order item workflow will be trigger and it will go to his manager and then to HR then to warehouse then to payroll. each time and action happen either approve or reject (which is a decision step) after each decision step there is a background step which will do all the required update to the database and after it completed it will send an e-mail to the next level. But in fiori they want successful massages to show after each action otherwise the used will continue pressing .
As I understand from the post I read that to make FIORI application we should not change our workflow and we should use it as it is (please correct me if iam wrong) . My workflow is built on object class and not BOR .
I read many post and documents about FIORI APPROVE REQUEST Application and sap fiori inbox and really I feel that things get missed up in my mind that I can’t distinguish between them.
What I understand is that I have to extend ODATA task processing V2 and add all needed properties for the screen as per “Extending SAP FIORI MY INBOX” document.
The vague area is how to pass the action and how to send the feedback to the fiori application which is extending task processing. Making the decision configuration
I don’t know what is the best approach or what is the correct approach as iam a bigger and I have never go over such experience before.
I tried to make an exit for each decision step to make all the update inside it but I don’t know how to send the message back to the fiori from the exit method after it success or failed .
The second choice is to implement “/IWWRK/BADI_WF_BEFORE_UPD_IB” for each activity step (in our case the activity has everything after approve or reject) . here I don’t know what to do and how to make it. All the activity is background activity and the Outcome options in the activity can’t be changed in class object so we have only these options (Step executed and Processing obsolete ) even if we change the activity to dialog . I don’t know how to configure them as per this http://scn.sap.com/docs/DOC-62831 .
And if we solve this problem how to pass the error or success message back to the fiori application from the badi .
Please expert till me if there is a better solution i have to follow.
