Procedure

The following table describes the properties of the Universal Worklist (UWL) iView or module template that you need to configure for usage on mobile devices.

Property

Description

Actions to Hide

Specifies the names (IDs) of actions that should not be displayed in the Actions list at runtime (multiple names separated by a semicolon). Default values are predefined, but can be modified as needed.

Actions to Show

Certain actions are always hidden by the default filtering mechanism (see the section Default Filtering Mechanism below). Use this field to override the default filter by specifying the names (IDs) of actions that should be always displayed in the Actions list at runtime.

Enable Opening Attachments

Specifies whether attachments to tasks can be opened at runtime. If false, attachments are displayed without hyperlinks. Default is true.

Note that this behavior can affect server performance. If performance is reduced, set to false.

Minimum Column Width for Extended Display Mode

Specifies the minimum column width (in pixels) above which this iView uses extended (side-by-side) display mode at runtime. The default width is set to enable side-by-side display mode for tablet devices.

Navigation Mode for Launching Actions

Specifies the way in which actions open. Actions can open in a new window with or without the portal header.

Number of Items to Load Incrementally

Specifies the number of items to load automatically each time that users scroll to the end of the task list at runtime.

Prompt Fadeout Display (ms)

Specifies the period of time (in milliseconds) after which system prompts should disappear automatically on mobile devices.

Universal Worklist PCD Path

Specifies the PCD path of the Universal Worklist Web Dynpro iView or page to display when accessing this iView on the desktop. This property is mandatory.

Universal Worklist View Name

Specifies the name of the Universal Worklist view to display on mobile devices. This property is mandatory.

Use Back-End System Messages

Specifies whether to show messages from the configured back-end system before and after performing actions. If set to false, generic messages are shown instead.
Default Filtering Mechanism

At runtime, actions that are not supported on mobile devices are filtered out from the end user's action list.

The following action handlers are supported at runtime on mobile devices:

  • ProviderActionHandler

  • UWLActionHandler

  • UserDecisionHandler

  • Custom handlers

Within the supported handlers, actions that require end user input are not supported, except for user note input. You can filter out a supported action or display an unsupported action by either setting the Actions to Show or Actions to Hide properties, or modifying the UWL configuration file, as described in Configuring Device-Dependent Action UIs.
