Technical Implementation (BC-BMT-WFM) 

Object types

Object technology is used to implement the interface between the R/3 functions and the workflow system.

The following information is of a technical nature. You require this information if you are interested in the details of implementation or want to make your own enhancements.

Object Type FORM (Desktop Form)

Object Type FORMABSENC (Form: Notification of Absence)

Object Type SELFITEM (Work Item for Dialog Steps On Itself)

Standard tasks

The standard tasks provided by SAP as single steps describe the basic business activities from an organizational point of view.

The standard tasks used here are available as "modules" and can also be used in other workflow scenarios without any modifications.

Standard Task WF_AbsFormCr (Create Notification of Absence without Dialog)

Standard Task WF_AbsCheck (Check Vacation with Form)

Standard Task AF_Txt_Send2 (Send Long Text after Approval)

Standard Task WF_AbsNRep2 (Notify Rejection of Notification of Absence

Roles

Roles are usually defined very specifically for an application scenario.

An exception to this is the role for determining an employee's superior. This role is also used in the example for processing a notification of absence and is available for general use.

Role Manager (Superior of...)

Workflow template

The business process flow is implemented as a workflow definition within a workflow template.

You can find this workflow template in your R/3 System.
