Hi Sudeesh

This is because of missing authorization.

check SCN Link: http://scn.sap.com/thread/2002337

Note :1840681 - Error in asynchronous method start states that it is because of missing authorization for transaction SWO_ASYNC

Best it to check SU53 soon after the message and see if we get something there for this auth failure.

If not, then you may want to raise an OSS ticket.

Hi Sudeesh,

I think there could be a problem within the method that is used by the step. I think this could be probably because of the value or data object that the method s expecting to be available in the method container during run time. I feel like this could be one of the issue.

Secondly, check if there are any secondary methods associated with the step. If existing then make sure the instance of the container element which is used in the methods tab is available at run time.

Thirdly, Check if there are any events which are getting created upon approval action. from SWEL event log.

Finally, make sure you  have defined proper binding and while triggering the terminating events make sure you commit the work.

If this is with respect to any of the standard workflow templates , provide us the workflow ID.
