Creation of Customizing Workflows 

Use

Customizing activities usually require a number of views or view clusters to be maintained in a particular order. So that view maintenance does not have to be called for each view or view cluster, all views/view clusters that are to be maintained together in one context should be processed within one workflow definition.

In the workflow definition, an object reference is first created from the view name to an object of type VIEWDATA for each view to be processed. This object reference is stored in the workflow container in a container element with the same name as the view. A step for maintaining this view is then created.

The individual maintenance dialogs are processed sequentially. The Customizing navigator provides information between the individual maintenance dialogs on the views that have already been maintained or are still to be maintained.
