Updating Task Container

[former_member185879]

Hi,

I had a workflow which sends notification to UWL and Outlook. i created task and container elements in both workflow container as well as in task container. i am going to trigger a workflow by using RFC. when i trigger the workflow i am getting the work item id.

i have displayed some text in workitem text(task - Basic Data) with the employee no. but when i saw the task in UWL i'm not getting the employee no. which i created in both container and binded from WF to task as well as from task to WF container.

can anyone tell me what will be the problem???

but if i executed and test the workflow alone i can see the employee no in the task.

Thanks

Hi Nizamudeen SM,

Check for the setting in the tcode SWFVISU transaction.

Hi,

I already maintained a task number in SWFVISU.

and one more thing i'm not getting that employee even in the SBWP also.

If i can get in SBWP, then sure it will be displayed in UWL also.

Thanks for your response. Please provide some more inputs.

Thanks

I think this would a binding issue. Check the log and see whether you can see the value in the workflow container element and task container element.

Hi,

I checked the log. only the workflow container is updated not the task container. but my binding with the task container is also done correctly.

if i execute a workflow directly in SWDD with the input values it is binded to task container.

but if i execute thru function modules then it is not binded to task container.

Thanks for your response. Please provide some more inputs.

Thanks

Hi Nizamudeen SM,

For sure, check the binding between Workflow container --> task container and Task container -->method container.

Hi,

I already checked and moreover i deleted both the container elements and created one more time, then also it is not working. Even i created new task and binded.

My doubt is if i run in SWDD the binding works. but if i run thru RFC it is not working. What will be the reason?

Thanks

Hi Nizamudeen,

I have got ur scenario but i didnt get .. But before going forward, i would like to ask few question from your end..

1- What you mean exactly by calling Wf by RFC ?

2- When you running WF standalone that time is it asking for employee name to pass as a variable..?

3- From Employee number or name is coming in to WF?

Before you check the description, did you checked the container values in the WF log. First of all, is the WF container getting populated. Secondly, there may be a timing issue.

Hi,

1. Calling WF by RFC means. i am trigger a workflow by using START_WORKFLOW BAPI and UPDATE the container value by using CONTAINER_SET and MODIFY_CONTAINER bapi's.

2. when i run a WF from SWDD, i can give values to WF container (for Ex: EmpNo : 12345, EmpName: XXXXX) and also it is updating task container also. i am able to see the values in both container

3. Even if i run by using bapi's i am able to receive data in WF container.

Hi Imthiaz,

I checked the workflow log also, i am able to see the values of workflow container, but not able to see the values in task container. i have to check with timing issue!!!

but when i saw the log, i can see the workitem id as 0000012345678 in WF container, and 00000123456789 in task container. is there any problem because of this!!!

Please reply ASAP

Thanks
