Forward Workitem - Should remove from first user's Inbox

[former_member435508]

Hi All,

I am forwarding my list of workitems from User A to User B with -  SAP_WAPI_FORWARD_WORKITEM

CALL FUNCTION 'SAP_WAPI_FORWARD_WORKITEM'

            EXPORTING

              workitem_id    = lv_wi_id

              user_id        = sy-uname

              language       = sy-langu

              do_commit      = 'X'

              current_user   = sy-uname

            IMPORTING

              return_code    = lv_rcode

              new_status     = lt_new_status

            TABLES

*             MESSAGE_LINES  =

*             MESSAGE_STRUCT =

              user_ids       = lt_user_ids.

Which is forwarding Workitem to user B but it remains in User A's inbox too...

I also try it with  SWW_WI_FORWARD but its not working...

I need the 'Forward' work as Std 'Forward' functionality (i.e. Need to remove the workitem from inbox of user A)

Can you help ???

Hi Priya,

If you can see User A work item in SWI5 there is a temporary solution to delete from User A inbox.

Please try below:

SWI5, click on the work item ID/Goto/technical work item display /right click/select change/Execute on logically Delete

Hi Jaylaxmi,

Thanks.

But actually this is in report - which I need to handover to the user.

And user can go for N no. of times...

I want the solution in code itself.

What you currently are doing is: forward the item to the current user again.

So please try this:

CALL FUNCTION 'SAP_WAPI_FORWARD_WORKITEM'

            EXPORTING

              workitem_id    = lv_wi_id

              user_id        = lv_target_user_id

              language       = sy-langu

              do_commit      = 'X'

            IMPORTING

              return_code    = lv_rcode

              new_status     = lt_new_status

            TABLES

*             MESSAGE_LINES  =

*             MESSAGE_STRUCT =

              user_ids       = lt_user_ids.

The parameter user_id can stay empty, if you want to forward the item to more than one recipient. In that case, you can use the table USER_IDS. It is not necessary, to fill both fields.
