Passing values to workflow

Former Member — Tue, 08 Jul 2008 06:22:27 GMT

Hello all,

I've a report program, the output of whch is an internal table with a single field type c. (elementary internal table). I've schedule the program to run at a specific time in background. Now, whenever the program executes, I want a workflow to trigger and pass the entire internal table to the workflow. How do I achieve this? Please help me out.

Regards

Indu.

hi,

here is an example


CONSTANTS : gc_task LIKE swwwihead-wi_rh_task VALUE 'WS99900152'.

DATA : BEGIN OF it_swcont OCCURS 0.
        INCLUDE STRUCTURE swcont.
DATA : END OF it_swcont.

MOVE : 'MATERIALRESERVATION'  TO  it_swcont-element,
             090          TO  it_swcont-elemlength,
             'o'        TO  it_swcont-type.

      CONCATENATE sy-sysid 'CLNT' sy-mandt
      'BUS2093' 'XXX'  gd_rsnum INTO
              it_swcont-value.
      REPLACE 'XXX' WITH '   ' INTO it_swcont-value.
      APPEND it_swcont. CLEAR it_swcont.

      MOVE : '_WF_INITIATOR'  TO  it_swcont-element,
             014          TO  it_swcont-elemlength,
             'C'          TO  it_swcont-type,
             gd_creator   TO  it_swcont-value.
      APPEND it_swcont. CLEAR it_swcont.
