BDC from Workflow Form

[safeer_shah2]

I am using SAP workflow form and based on the data from the form I want to execute BDC, I saw some previous posts but they were based on the method and forms are based on standard methods which are used for forms i.e. approve/reject , save/exit. I want to know is there a way to trigger BDC from workflow form

Hello Safeer !

          Record the BDC program and save it as function module.

          Create a method in a business object and call this function module.

          Create a background task in the workflow and integarate the above method in this task.

          Prior to this background task, create the form step in workflow. Do the binding to pass the data entered in this form step to the background task. That's all.

I mean on the same branch after the workflow form.

it has to be trigger within the form not after the form

hi,

First create a method in your BO  which contains your BDC code and then,

In case you are selecting approve from you SAP form you can store that data in container and then pass that data into your workflow task,

In this way you can run your BDC program from FORM's data.
