I'm using a Z-Object derived from BUS2000111 (CRM 4.0). I create the my Z-Event if my Z-Filed in the CRMD_CUSTOMER was changed. This Z-Event tiggers my Z-Workflow.
To get the old and new value in my event container, I created a new attribute (database field) in my Z-Object and I created a parameter of my Z-Event for my Z-Field.
So with the new attribute and the event parameter the system should fill the event container automatically.
there is no code. The system should fill the event container automaticaly. Here are a statement from sap help:
-
...
After a change document has been written and the system has recognized from the assignment table that an event of a particular object type is to be created for it, the system checks whether the changed fields are defined as database field attributes of this object type. If this is the case, the changed value and the new value are written under the name of the attribute as a two-line element into the event container. (New value with index 0001 , old value with index 0002 .)
There are also plenty of other such messages in the workflow user group, just use google to look them up with search "site:mailman.mit.edu/ sap-wug/ <search term>"
thanks for your answer. With you help I could debug the container processing. And I found my problem.
Now I get the values in my event container.
It's a little bit strange, the change documents based on the structure CRMA_CUSTOMER_H not on the data base table CRMD_CUSTOMER_H. So I defined my object attributes for this structure and not for the data base itself.
But unfortunatly I get the next problem. When I use the event to start my workflow, the values never transferred to my workflow. I checkt the event - workflow binding again and again, but I can't find the problem.
If I send the event container to my user via the FB SWE_EVENT_MAIL the container is filled.
are the other values except your custom elements passed to the workflow container ok and the workflow gets triggered? Are there any clues of possible errors or warnings in the event trace?
Ok, then I'd isolate the problem more by trying to manually create the event and populate the event container in transaction SWUE. Could you try this and verify the linkage is ok? If this works, then I'd concentrate on the event container population.
Ok, then the event container -> wf container linkage is ok and the problem is that you don't have the proper values added to the event container.
One thing you could try to debug the event container population is to make a dummy function based on template SWE_CD_TEMPLATE_CONTAINER_FB_2 and add it in SWEC to the linkages function module for event container creation. This function will then be called just before the actual event is raised so you can see the event container content before its publishing.
If this doesn't work, then I'd suggest you look for the section in the standard code where the event gets published and debug it to see if the values are ok. System trace is a good tool for this and I believe you also get to see the triggering program in the event trace as well.
