BPEM - Case Category - Case Creation Type - only one value possible

[marcin_cholewczuk]

Hi all,

BPEM was already configured at my clients system and as far as I know it's working. But I have a kind of problem with it.

Let's say that I have a process that works like this:

1. check value A  (if missing then abort)

2. check value B  (if missing then abort)

3. check value C  (if missing then abort)

4. compute results

So when value A is missing I have no inforation if value B is ok or not. From process view this is ok, because it makes no sense to go through points 2 and 3 since all 3 values are needed, but from a Clerk view it has (it's annoying to get 1. error, after correction 2. error and so on). So a z-report was created to monitor if other values are ok or not. Inside I'm trying to create a new case for already existing case category (with FM BAPI_EMMA_CASE_CREATE). Problem is that each case category can only be created either automatic or manual. There is no choice like 'both'.

Is there a way to overcome this? I thought of creating normal application log instead of using BAPI (with next batch job run data should be collected), but maybe there is better solution to this problem?

well I did as I wrote. Just in case anybody needs it, this is how I add new messages that will be processed later by BPEM background job

1. Calling FM BAL_LOG_CREATE

2. Calling FM EMMA_LOG_PROCESS_START

3. Adding messages with FM BAL_LOG_MSG_ADD

4. Calling FM EMMA_LOG_PROCESS_END

5. Calling FM BAL_DB_SAVE  (not sure if really needed)

if you need to add messages for different objects within one BPEM Job just repeat points 2 - 5 for each object.

Best Regards
