Hello,

I want to start a wrokflow when the status of a document changes to completed. Can anyone point out the steps that i should follow ?

What customization steps are required for this issue.

For the record, i did the following:

- i created the notification for absence workflow described in the SAP help documentation

- Then i went to spro transaction code -> cross-application components-> doc. Mngt ->control data -> define document type. then i chose KPR type, when to its status "completed" modified it and added in the task the id of a workflow and i saved.

Now when i change the status of a document to complted nothing happens.

The workflow is not triggered.

Any ideas to why ?
