SAP Workflow - Destination uses wrong user 'WF-BATCH'

Former Member

Hi,

I am currently working on an issue related to SAP workflow. To begin with, I have already setup the WORKFLOW_LOCAL_400 type L RFC and WF-BATCH is assigned there with correct roles/profiles. (user isn't locked as well)

However when trying to re-customize the workflow via SWU3 transaction code, I am getting an error saying below

System user 'SAP_WFRT' does not exist

Destination uses wrong user 'WF-BATCH'

I am just not sure where this 'SAP_WFRT' user is coming from and it's clear that the RFC destination uses the 'WF-BATCH' user.

Another strange observation is that the issue is in QA but works perfectly fine in PROD environment using WF-BATCH. Both SAP systems are S4 Hana already.

If it's working in PROD, I am not sure if this statement i found on the internet is correct "Starting with S/4 Hana OnPremise 1709 the workflow system user and workflow system jobs changed. The workflow system user is called SAP_WFRT now instead of WF-BATCH. The workflow system jobs start with SAP_WORKFLOW now and are scheduled automatically by "Technical Job Repository", transaction SJOBREPO"

Hi,

Starting with S/4 Hana OnPremise 1709 the workflow system user and workflow system jobs changed. The workflow system user is called SAP_WFRT now instead of WF-BATCH. Reconfigure the SWU3 settings according the new requirements.
