deadline monitoring (BC-BMT-WFM)

SAP Business Workflow (BC-BMT-WFM)

A workflow runtime system function that monitors the start and end deadlines for the processing of selected work items.

The monitoring of the requested start ensures that the work item appears in a Business Workplace at a defined time, and not before. If a latest end, a latest start, or a requested end is missed, the two possible reactions are:

• Missed deadline notification -

Message recipients for missed deadlines are notified by missed deadline work items in their Business Workplaces.

• Modeled deadline monitoring -

The reaction is modeled specifically in the workflow definition.
