Change table entries with a workitem

[Former Member]

Hi all,

I think this is an easy one for you. I want to change a table entry in a customer table over a method which is part of a work item. In the test modus everything is ok but directly over the workflow the entries are not updated (background processing). I'm using the modify command.

Thanks for your help

hi,

In your case check for,

1) Binding between the workflow container and task container and also, task container to method container.

At times even though binding is established due to poor run time buffer synchronization its not binded.

check this link [runtime synch|https://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/ABAP/SAPBusinessWorkflow#SAPBusinessWorkflow-ExceptioninbindingofTaskandtheMethod%3F]

2) Check for the macros swc* in the method whether they are populating the values inside the method.

You have an option for debugging the method itself directly.

Thanks

Hi,

I have checked the bindings. The container has the correct data and the test run is also working.

Is there a chance to debug the executed workitem?

hi,

I think debugging of workflows is possible through using the SM50, transaction.

Check the work item status in

SWI1

and work flow diagnosis SWUD,

They might help you in arriving at a conclusion about the behavior of your workflow and work item

Thanks and regards

Hello,

Did you put a commit in the method? Is there no update at all, or an incorrect value?

You can debug it by putting an infinite loop in the method:

• Temporary, for debugging.

data: lv_rbtmp(1).

lv_rbtmp = 'X'.

while lv_rbtmp eq 'X'.

endwhile.

Go to SM50, find the program (usually user WF-BATCH) choose debug (Program/Session > Program > Debugging) and change the value to get out of the loop.

Don't forget to remove the infinite loop!

Hi,

The variable is not passed or Variable is reseted in the workflow. This mostly happen because of the binding, check right variable you bind.

To debug, For testing put a breakpoint in the method coding and make it as a Dialog task, give your user id the assignment.

Then test it.
