Thanks in advance.

New feature: ABAP OO-Workflow Task with fixed domain values
Dear friends,
with BOR methods, you could specifiy a method with a "Returning" parameter. If that was related to a Data element --> Domain --> with fixed values, the Workflow Builder created you separate outcomes for each of the values.
If you like that design ... or not (... Hi Mike :-) ) ... this feature wasn't provided with the ABAP Objects Workflow, so you had to store the result into a separate container element with a CASE-step right afterwards.
So... this has change now, how I've just found out. At least with SAPKB 702 SP 17...
this has become available, and it just works nicely.
What you need:
- Create a functional method
- I just gave a simple name for the parameter, e.g. RV_<method_name> ... now fancy stuff like a definition of _WI_RESULT is required and I would recommend not to use such a returning name.
- Refer the data element to a domain with fixed values
- Create a task, based on that based
- You do NOT need to make anything special about the binding task<->method
- When you enter that task in the Workflow builder it will generate you the appropriate outcomes
Don't forget to check that the returning element is ALWAYS filled with (at least) a default value, otherwise you receive message SWP 009 (Error in CASE / outcome of a step) and the Workflow runs into an unrecoverable error.
Cheers
Florin

I tried searching on sdn but could not come across any link which can help me, please redirect me to post or let me know how to do so(passing value from rule container back to workflow cotainer?)

DELINS - TS00008000 - Work Item Created Despite Idoc Status 53
Why is a Work Item created in SBWP despite the IDoc being successfully processed (Status 53)?
We are using standard SAP workflow for our inbound DELINS Idocs with process code DELI and Inbound Function Module IDOC_INPUT_DELINS_START
When a Scheduling Agreement gets successfully updated with a DELINS Idoc, a work item still gets created in the SAP Business Workplace with the following status texts:
Status Message for Selected IDoc
Status Text: IDoc: 0000000000600000 Status: Application document posted
T100 Text: Scheduling agreement 0030001111 for IDoc 0000000000600000 has been processed
If the task TS00008000 has a triggering event of INPUTERROROCCURRED, why is a Work Item created?
We are on ECC5.
Thank you for your assistance.

Skip workitem using Program Exit
Hello Experts
I have a custom workflow process with many user decision tasks. Business would like to implement a process to skip certain tasks at run time.
I would like to leverage the program exit to bypass tasks as needed. Can I use the BEFORE CREATION event to somehow bypass a task?
Is there a better way to manage this without wrapping conditions around every task?
Thanks in advance.
Points to be awarded promptly!

how to write the code in custom method in BO
Hi friends,
PFA . I am new to Workflow. I have got to design the foll. scenario.
Create a workflow to create / change Purchase Order depending on the input values entered in the custom screen of Service Notification. Create a subtype of standard business object BUS1001and develop custom method. The workflow is triggered by a custom event. When there is any change in input field values on the custom screen, the event gets created and sends a mail both external and internal to the purchasing group, where Buyer user id and email id is determined through rule based function module. Buyer details are maintained in custom table.
I am delegating my std BO BUS1001 and i need to create a custom method with the code inside it. What code do i need to write in order to achieve the foll. scenario.

Sending work item as attachment in Email (Outlook)
Dear Experts,
I am writing for your expert advice on this issue. I need to send the work item as attachment to certain recipients in the Outlook email. Now when they double click on the work item, it does some operation for them.
I am stuck on how to add the work item as attachment. I am trying o achieve this functionality via Program Exit as the email needs to be sent as soon the Work item is created.
P.S. I have already seen SAP Std. Extended Notification. Here the difference is, the email body will be customized with business data.
Pls. advise what possible I am missing as I do not see email being triggered with attachment. However, when send a simple email w/o attachment, it works, that means exit is triggered. I believe, I am stuck at the attachment of work item part. Pls. suggest best possible way.
Thanks in advance.

Sid

Please let me know if we have any other options to handle this situation of changing price in the midway of the approval process

A Tricky One: UWL entries have (2) for BOR object elements
I am reaching out to the community for some assistance with a situation we are experiencing. I've not been able to find a thread on this, so hopefully I've just been framing the question incorrectly.
The situation is our users access their inboxes from the portal UWL. Some of the columns are from standard elements and some from the BOR object. For only the BOR object data elements there appears a number within brackets - (2) for example. When I hover over the element we see the the value of the column twice delimited by a semi colon. So the field TEXTDESC had the value XXXXXX;XXXXXX and so on.
In the backend, I am only seeing one entry with WF with the WI_ID, the log entry looks ok, the container elements look ok. I don't see any difference from the ECC side with workflows that do not have the (N) suffix after the BOR object value.
Additionally, this does not appear on all entries displayed in the UWL.
I would be grateful if anyone has suggestions on how to come to the understanding of this situation.

Inbound idocs status 51 - mismatch between WE02 & Workplace
Hello experts,
For follow-up of error inbound idocs with basic type ORDERS05, I use Workplace (tcode SBWP). The issue is that there is a mismatch between the list of inbound error idocs in WE02 & in SBWP. In SBWP inbox error idocs are sometimes missing.
Does somebody know where the problem lies with? It seems to be a standard functionality which is not working as expected.
Thanks in advance for helping out!

Pass BO as parameter to RH_GET_ACTORS.
Hi all,
I have a requirement to get the agents for the standard rule "20000027" (PO workflow agents).
But the rule accepts Purchase order business object (BUS2012) as container parameter.
Now i need to call the FM RH_Get_actors in abap to determine the agents and if no agents found then do subsequent steps.
But i am unable to pass business object as parameter to the FM.
Kindly advise.

Trigger custom workflow for inbound IDoc
I am using SAP 6.0 Ehp7. My company in most cases collects inbound IDocs for MM invoices and has the RBDAPP01 report scheduled as a batch job to post them (status = 64). We have a request from one of our locations that the users need to review each IDoc for their location then post them individually. The reasons for this different process are:
1. To meet specific country requirements
2. The users must not be given access to BD87
3. They need to review the IDocs individually before posting them
They believe creating a workflow would be the best route if I can trigger it to send them a work item that contains the info from the IDoc. We do not want the work item to take them to any transaction - it should be informational with a decision step to process the invoice. Once they decide to process the invoice, workflow should do this in the background.
I have a few questions related to this:
1. Is there on any way other than a custom workflow to accomplish this?
2. Is it possible to have workflow call the RBDAPP01 report? Maybe create a custom function module?
3. Any idea of where the logic would need to go to trigger the custom event if using workflow?
4. Would BUS2081 be the appropriate business object to create a Z object from for this?
Your input is greatly appreciated.
