Hi,

it depends on what is triggering the WF..

try to check if there is an event linked to your WF (trans. SWE2,SWEC,SWE5).

Transactions SWU8,SWU9 (workflow trace) and SWELS,SWEL (event trace) may be helpful to understand how the workflow is launched.

I hope this helps.

Hi Sandip,

You can display the Workflow template using tramsaction PFTC or PFTC_DIS. Check the 'Triggering Events' tab to see if the WF is started by an event with a Green light icon. If so you can turn off the event linkage by clicking on the green light. If this is in Production, you have to disable in Dev and transport the change.

If no Triggering events exist, it may be started directly.

Depending on what the WF is doing, you should be able to get a fairly good idea of from where. If it is not a custom program, it probably is done through configuration.

Cheers,

Ramki.
