Activities

If you want to enter a text as a step in a workflow at runtime and this text is to be read by another employee in one of the subsequent steps, the following activities are required:

  1. Define a single-step task for entering a text. The user who executes the work item in question at runtime has to enter a text. For further information, refer to Defining the Standard Task "Create SAPscript Text".
  2. Define a single-step task for displaying the text. For further information, refer to Defining the Standard Task "Display SAPscript Text".
  3. Include both steps into a workflow definition. For further information, refer to Defining the Workflow (Section) "Process SAPscript Text".
