Workflow trigger issue

[RKSK]

Hi Sapgurus,

I have made a scenerio in which if user enters the measuring point value greater than target value in IK11 then a notification is generated *(i.e IW21) now i want when this notification is generated a workflow should trigger that can intimate user that the notification has been generated my problem is when i try to trigger it i get the short dumb saying

The call of a COMMIT WORK in a FORM, that will not be executed until

the commit or rollback point of the caller using the variant

PERFORM ... ON COMMIT or PERFORM ... ON ROLLBACK is not permitted.

Could anyone please tell mee what is the reason below is the code which i m writing to trigger the workflow.

I have used the all the FM to triiger workflow but getting the same dumb again and again.

the FM i have user are

1. SAP_WAPI_START_WORKFLOW

2. SWE_EVENT_CREATE

3. SWW_WI_START_SIMPLE

All are giving the same dumb.

Please help me out.

Thanks and Regards,

Hi Rachit,

Another thought ! If you just need to send a notification , I think no need to go for workflow !

As you are using the SWE_EVENT_CREATE , I hope you already have the user-exit available. Check based on these required condition, use FM to send mail.

Regarding your point about error/dump, as transaction IW21 has not yet been completed and still you are executing <b>commit work</b> statement for raising the event, dump might be occuring.

Hope this helps to start off..

Regards,

Akshay

Hi Akshay,

I have told them the same that this can be done through mail but the problem is they want to know whether the the concerned person has seen the mail or not .

Is there any answer or solution to this.

Please reply so that i can make them understand.

Thanks and Regards,

Check out the sent items of the workflow initiator in the outbox.

use tcode SBWP to check out the outbox documents

Hi Karuna,

I am now able to trigger the workflow but the problem is that in my SBWP inbox the title is coming in German Language the code which i m writing to trigger the workflow is :-

CALL FUNCTION 'SWE_EVENT_CREATE'

EXPORTING

OBJTYPE = 'BUS2038'

OBJKEY = 'WS99900237'

EVENT = 'CREATED'

• CREATOR = ' '

• TAKE_WORKITEM_REQUESTER = ' '

• START_WITH_DELAY = ' '

• START_RECFB_SYNCHRON = ' '

• NO_COMMIT_FOR_QUEUE = ' '

• DEBUG_FLAG = ' '

• NO_LOGGING = ' '

• IDENT =

• IMPORTING

• EVENT_ID =

• TABLES

• EVENT_CONTAINER =

EXCEPTIONS

OBJTYPE_NOT_FOUND = 1

OTHERS = 2

.

IF SY-SUBRC <> 0.

• MESSAGE ID SY-MSGID TYPE SY-MSGTY NUMBER SY-MSGNO

• WITH SY-MSGV1 SY-MSGV2 SY-MSGV3 SY-MSGV4.

ENDIF.

Could i can have the title in my SAP inbox as English.

And one more thing if i want that when the mail is send to the outlook through my report can i do something so that i can know that the user has read the mail or not.

Thanks and Regards,

Hi Rachit,

In such case , you will have to go with workflow option, that too you will have to use work items for the same. i.e use a custom dummy method - which does nothing- so that you can create task basedon this method and then assign required agent. So that user receives Work item in his inbox when workflow is triggered.

Also You can use deadline monitoring , such that if he does not act on this work item for say 1 day, then you can intimate his manager or some admin person etc etc..and in turn make sure that person sees / executes the work item.

Hope this serves your requirement.

Akshay

Hi Khanna,

>if user enters the measuring point value greater than target value in IK11 then a >notification is generated

My openion, why do not you use Start condition using tcode SWB_COND, start conditions are used for triggering EVENTS only.

Ex:

If greater than xxx value ,

True -

---

> Start Workflow

False -

---

> No Action

Hi Akshay ,

Thanks for your reply but i m really confused for BOR objects role, its use i have read the forums also but not able to understand the importance of BOR objects in Workflow.

My second doubt is how to pass the value from my program to workflow container element.

I tried to create my own BOR object but not able to do so.

I have seen in the forums that when we are using the FM SWE_EVENT _CREATE

CALL FUNCTION 'SWE_EVENT_CREATE'

EXPORTING

OBJTYPE = 'BUS20838'

OBJKEY = p_key

EVENT = 'CREATED'

what we have to give in OBJTYPE ?

Do we have to give my workflow name or the BOR object name

In OBJKEY what i have to give?

the value that i want to pass in my workflow ot some other thing

Please help me out as i m really very confused.

Please..........

Thanks and Regards,

Hi Rachit,

Pls fine pointwise reply:

1. Object type is the type name whch you have created in SWO1.

e.g refer Object BUS1001006 i.e. material in SWO1 and you will have an idea.

2. Object nkey is the key field which oyu have used for your custom BO type.

e.g. In case of material object it is material number i.e. value of matnr from mara table.

Hope it helps to resolve your confusion.

Regards,

Akshay

Some points would be nice if it helps

[RKSK · Accepted solution]

Hi Akshay,

Thanks for your information.

The Object key is the key attribute of your BO

Like in case of BUS2038 its Notification Number rght.

Thanks again i will now try again to trigger my workflow

So, the code you have written is being called as part of a "PERFORM ... ON COMMIT" - which means you can not have any COMMIT WORK statements, explicitly or implicitly.

Yes. I can.

CALL FUNCTION 'SAP_WAPI_START_WORKFLOW'
     EXPORTING
          TASK      = 'WS99900237'
          LANGUAGE  = SY-LANGU
          DO_COMMIT = 'X'
          USER      = SY-UNAME
...

You must pass space to the DO_COMMIT parameter.

Sorry, but apparently the tags for CODE don't work any longer (or today, or whatever)... so the alignment isn't optimal.

[RKSK]

Hi Kjetil,

I have tried the way you are saying but it is still giving me the same error.

Thanks and Regards,

Rachit khanna

[KKilhavn]

Well, I thought I wouldn't spell it out in detail for you, but OK...

There's a parameter for controlling COMMIT also for the function module SWE_EVENT_CREATE (which you should replace with SAP_WAPI_CREATE_EVENT if it is in your own code).

Now, please do put a little more effort into it yourself next time. Don't expect us to do your job, when you ask for help you should expect guidance - not code that you can copt & paste.

Check the Code below it is with SWE_EVENT_CREATE.
