Change workflow administrator

Former Member — Thu, 05 Feb 2009 10:48:34 GMT

Hello ,

Is there any way to change the wrokflow administrator . The scenario is a user (who is the administrator for many workflows, ALE config post processing permitted agent etc )is going to be replaced by a new user . All the places where this user was configured has to be now replaced by the new user . Is there any easy way to do this . Or is there any easy way to find out where all the old user has been configured as reciever/administrator . Please show some light .

Many thanks,

JR.

the workflow system is administrated on different levels - at least when it comes to do workflows on IDOCs - and that's almost the only aspect i know of - so you would have to change the whole setup - use tx.

SWDC_RUNTIME to change the workflow administrator for worflows in general - a hint here: it pays a lot in the long run if you are not putting a single user-ID here, but tie it to HR-ORG: set up a position and attach a whole bunch of users to it, so you can distribute the workflows to more people and additionally you would never have to touch the admin-settings again ... the admin in this transaction would then be of type 'S' and the number of the organizational level. use tx. PPOME to set this up.

tx. OYEA to set up an IDOC-Adminstrator on the top-level (there are several levels where you can set them also ... on level of the partners, for example -> check tx. WE20 for this. here goes the same as for the above mentionen customizing: use HR-ORG to define a position ... see above.

both: IDOC-admins and workflow-admins are client-dependent, so you will have to repeat that action in every client in your system you want to use.
