Use

In addition to general Customizing that guarantees that workflow processes function as they are intended, special Customizing is required for the workflow template.

Features

Editing the Organizational Plan

You do not need to set up your own organizational plan for specification editing.

Performing Task-Specific Customizing

You must assign agents to standard tasks and to your workflow template.

Note

You can classify the agents directly in the workflow definition (see Agent Assignment and Updating) or in Customizing for the SAP Business Workflow.

You perform classification in Customizing for the SAP Business Workflow as follows:

  1. In SAP Customizing under Basis Components ® Business Management ® SAP Business Workflow call the IMG activity Perform task-specific Customizing.
  2. Under Environment, Health and Safety ® Product Safety call the activity Assign tasks to agent.
  3. Classify the standard task TS11200005 (EHS: Example of task) and the workflow template EHS: Example of a workflow as general tasks.

Taking Event-Receiver Linkage into Account

The event Changed (specification to be changed) for the object type BUS1077 (specification) is entered in the event linkage table as standard. This event is not, however, entered as a triggering event in the workflow template EHS_DEMO. In EH&S, workflows are started explicitly by the report RC1WFSUB that must be scheduled as a background job. The report identifies the workflow template to be started using the relevant entries in Customizing for Product Safety. A linkage between the event and the workflow templates should therefore not be made.

Note

You can set up the SAP System so that when you write change documents on changes to specification data, the Changed event is triggered. You can then use this event as the triggering event for self-programmed workflow processes.

Activating Workflow for Specification Changes

In Customizing for Product Safety, the workflow for specification changes is activated with the aid of the environment parameter WF_SUB_FLG_ACTIVE.

Using the environment parameters WF_SUB_DATE_FROM (date) and WF_SUB_TIME_FROM (time), you set the time from which changes to specification data should be taken into account by the EH&S workflow for the first time. After starting the workflow, the SAP System overwrites the parameters with the current start time so that the old specification changes are not used again.
