Context

A task or a workflow is identified by its abbreviation. It can also be used in input fields as a search term. The name is output in logs for identification.

A work item that represents a task is displayed with the work item text in the Business Workplace, in the work item selection hit list and in the workflow log. If you do not specify a work item text, the name is used instead.

The release status is of an informal nature and indicates the development status of the task or workflow.

Procedure

  1. Edit the abbreviation.
  2. Edit the name.
  3. Enter the work item text.
  4. If you want to use expressions in the work item text, position the cursor at the relevant point in the text and select .

    The expression is replaced at execution time with the current values from the relevant container. Note that container elements used in the work item text must be filled using a binding.

    Note

    If you are looking at a task in display mode, whose original system is not the current system, you can redefine the work item text. Select and enter a text that is to replace the SAP standard text. This creates an extension of the task definition.

  5. Select an appropriate release status.
