The main purpose of SAP Business Workflow is to get the right task to the right agent

(organizational unit, position, job or user) at the right time. This speeds up the completion of

business processes. Organizational Management provides the framework for a routing structure

that SAP Business Workflow uses for task assignment at runtime. By scrolling through the

complex network of relationships in an organizational plan , SAP Business Workflow is able

to pinpoint exactly where tasks should be routed. This organizational plan provides you with

_ a flexible model of your company on the system, which you can manipulate to reflect actual

and proposed human resources scenarios

_ a structure along which you can route your business processes

There are two possible cases:

_ The Organizational Management component is used for human resources purposes in your

enterprise. In this case, you use the organizational plan for human resources purposes as

well as for workflow. As long as integration between Personnel Administration and

Organizational Management is acitve, you can assign tasks to both users and employees.

You can assign users to employees in the Communication (0105) infotype.

_ The Organizational Management component is not used in your enterprise. In this case, you

create only a small part of your organizational plan in order that all workflows may run. As there is no integration with Human Resources, you can only assign tasks to users.

To reduce the number of agents found, or to restrict the number of agents responsible, you can

hi

please check the Developer's Guide in general:

http://www.sdn.sap.com/sdn/developersguide.sdn

the concrete information on workflow you can find here:

Business Process Management

http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/en/9c/8d8442dcaad665e10000000a155106/frameset.htm

Embedded processes (workflow)

http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/en/fd/517b42303e0e53e10000000a155106/frameset.htm

SAP Business Workflow can be used to define business processes that are not yet mapped in the R/3 System. These may be simple release or approval procedures, or more complex business processes such as creating a material master and the associated coordination of the departments involved. SAP Business Workflow is particularly suitable for situations in which work processes have to be run through repeatedly, or situations in which the business process requires the involvement of a large number of agents in a specific sequence.

Features

SAP Business Workflow provides a number of tools for defining and analyzing workflows as well as for monitoring operation.

The Workflow Builder is for displaying and making changes to workflows. You can make small extensions directly to the original workflows supplied by SAP, such as carrying out your own agent assignments or changing deadline monitoring.

There are several Workflow Wizards to support you in the definition of workflows, with which you can create specific parts of a workflow. The Workflow Wizard Explorer gives you an overview of the existing Workflow Wizards.

In order to make the functions of the R/3 Systems available to a workflow, you use business objects, which you can define and analyze in the Business Object Builder. These business objects are made available to the workflow in reusable tasks. The Business Wizard Explorer gives you an overview of all existing tasks.

You can also use SAP Business Workflow to respond to errors and exceptions in other, existing business processes. You can start a workflow when predefined events occur, for example an event can be triggered if particular errors are found during an automatic check.

] Workflow is Simulation of Business processes automated through SAP.

May be you can take a process for applying for leave Leave.

In this Leave scenario we can automate it stepwise,

1) Employee apply for leave with dates

2) mail shoot to Manager

3) He can accept ot reject, May be he can approve with modified dates.

2] As you can see Applying for leave is 1st step so it can be a trigeering event for workflow. Means Workflow starts with event.
