Maintaining WF-BATCH as Wflow Admin - Reg

[Former Member]

Hi All,

I have the following scenario and would really appreciate if anybody can throw some light and share their experiences.

I am working on ECC 6.0. In DEV and QA systems, and recently in PRD also ( by mistake), we have noticed that for Workflow System Admin, (in SWU3-->Maintain Workflow System Admin), the user WF-BATCH has been maintained.

As i know WF-BATCH is a system user and no one can access the SAP Inbox of this user. And, whenever some workflow fails, a notification is sent to this SAP Inbox's "Documents" folder, and probably some witems also have been getting generated for this user.

My problem is, how can we see these messages in Documents & Workflow folders of WF-BATCH.

Also, can anybody correct me if I am wrong in that there is no relation between the WF-BATCH which we generate thru' "Configuring RFC Destination" in SWU3 for all our background tasks, and the "Maintain Workflow System Admin" also in SWU3. They are totally two independent user id's maintained. Am I right ?

Ofcourse, we are trying to change the WF Admin's user id to some valid regular Dialog user so that we can login to that SAP Inbox periodically to monitor.

But, how to see the already generated SAP Inbox messages and witems and what we can do with them.

I'd really appreciate your response / comments / suggestions on this.

Thanks in advance

Issue resolved by maintaining a Dialog user as Wf Admin

Maintaining the WF admin is a separate thing. You have to maintain an appropriate super user. On how to view the already generated messages I have a clue. Explore this program RSSO_DELETE_PRIVATE which responsible to delete the inbox messages and see from where it fetches the data.

HI IA,

Thanks for the clarification and I'll take a look at the pgm and get back to you. And, our Basis told that they can take a look at the SAP Inbox of WF-BATCH. I'll look into that.

Thanks

There is a Wapi available which will basically return you the inbox of a user. You could use this to identify any workitems assigned to WF-BATCH and then use SWIA to send them to another user.
