Triggering Universal Work List item

[peter_norris]

Hi

is it possible to create a Universal Work List ad-hoc item within EP via an API or web-service?

We could simply create a work item in R/3 and have the UWL link to R/3, but our preference is to avoid unnecessary hits on our R/3 server and create the item directly within EP.

Thanks

Hi Peter,

To answer your question, yes. 

IProviderConnector implementations can use any communication mechanism to connect to the systems and retreive the Items. For example: EJB call, JCO, Web Service etc.

I can see in this in the JavaDocs in the package: com.sap.netweaver.bc.uwl.connect.  I will attach a link to the full javadocs so you can take a look:

I hope that this information is helpful to you!
