"No workflow started. Application error occured"

[Former Member]

Dear Gurus,

Our user has encounter approval workflow problem. Shopping cart was created and ordered with status "Awaiting Approval". However, when viewing "Approval Overview", it shows that "No workflow started. Application error occured".

Approver has access to SAP and roles had been assigned.

I've checked table SWW_WI2OBJ and there is workflow created in SAP. However, it shows as error on the web.

Any idea what caused this error?

rgds,

in BBP_PD for yr SC pl check whether workitem has been created and work agent has been chosen.

this will be shown at the bottom in the workflow section.

additionaly use SWDD and SWUD to check the WF

Dear P.T. Sridharbabu,

I'm not quite sure how it was solve because user called out of a sudden that he received an email that prompt for his approval.

I just remembered that I go through t-code SWI6, SWIA, and BBP_PD and SWUD.

Hi,

Delete the previous workflow and restart it

to delete go to T-code SWWL give the id of the workflow....

and Execute

Next you need to restart it so go to swue and restart the workflow and check....

Hi,

Go to SWDD and from Header find out whether you have an active version for your workflow.

Seems like the BUS 2201 is not able to determine any of the active workflows.

OR,

Go to SWUD and test with your workflow template and see if any error exists.

It will show :" Workflow definition doesnot exist WD 401 " error if you dont have an active version.

Try to create an active version for your workflow if this is the issue.

Can you check if there is any error in ST22 at the time of shopping cart creation.
