Worflow gettign triggered without event and direct start function module

sanjay_deshpande4 — Sat, 19 Jun 2021 14:05:39 GMT

Dear All,

I can see a workflow in SWI1 transaction. It doesn't has event.

When I did "where used" on this workflow from PFTC, I could not get parent workflow.

Neither I could get SAP_WAPI_START_WORKCFLOW function module being used.

Can anybody kindly help me from where this workflow might have triggered? I there any other way of workflow triggered other than above? Actually some values being passed to this workflow. I want to know from where its happening.

Regards,

SAP_WAPI_START_WORKFLOW is the one to be used in custom programs to start a workflow without event, but it doesn't mean that it's the only way used by standard programs.

Moreover, you may start a workflow via SWDD, SWUS, SWUG, by including a workflow inside another workflow, etc. See also Starting Tasks and Workflows (SAP Library).
