Activities

System activities

If you have closed all short-term inspection characteristics and made a usage decision for an inspection lot, but long-term characteristics are still open, the SAP Business Workflow automatically:

  1. Generates the workflow-triggering event LONGTERMINSPECTION
  2. Starts workflow template WS00200070
  3. Sends a work item (mail) to the inbox of the person(s) or department(s) who are responsible for processing the work item

User activities

As the person responsible for processing a work item, you have the following options:

Options

What you should know

You can process the work item as a workflow.

Choose Office ® Inbox to view the work item. Here, you have the following processing options:

  • Double-click the work item to process it. The system automatically calls the transaction to change an inspection lot.
  • Display a supplementary screen for the work item to obtain an overview of which tasks are outstanding and completed.
  • Resubmit a work item as a reminder for processing at a later date.
  • Navigate from an inspection lot to the workflow log, to determine who has taken what action.
  • Receive the work item in other mail clients (for example Lotus Notes® or MS Outlook®).

You can process the inspection lot manually via a work list.

See Processing Inspection Lots Without Inspection Completion.

If you process an inspection lot manually (outside of the workflow), any changes that you make to the inspection lot are also updated and reflected in the workflow process.
