How to reassing Work items to another user?

[Former Member]

Hi SDN

We have a situation where we need to extract, from one approver inbox, all the work items he has to approved, and re-assign them to another approve, who has the same level of approval. I know we could only ask the 1st approver to go in Change mode and re-assign Approver #2, but Approver #1 is not available.

Can you please explain me how to extract the list of work items sitting in Approver #1 inbox, and re-assign them to Approver #2 using some of the WF t-code available for EBP Administrator?

Thanks for your usual collaboration!

Excecute:SWI5 Type: US, ID: Approver1 Slect Work items to be complete Give a future date and get the Work items

Now Excecute: SWIA provide the workitems, excecute. In the next screen select the workitems and click on Admin Forward and provide Approver2

Thanks,

Surya

it is possible to forward all workitems of approver1 to another approver approver2 using the transaction swia ( this is administrator task).

you can forward the dialog workitems which are with approver1 to approver2 , there will be one forward button , there you need to enter the user to whom you are forwarding the workitem.

Did you try the FM SWW_WI_FORWARD

• To get a particular user inbox workitems you have FM SAP_WAPI_CREATE_WORKLIST which will rertun you all the workitems that are in the ready status.

• BY using the FM SWW_WI_FORWARD you can forward the workitems.

Suppose if we have 2 users UA and UB and you need to send all the workitems of UA to UB and when you send the workitems , what ever the workitem that you send to UB that workitem will not be available in UA if you use the FM SWW_WI_FORWARD
