How to create a workflow dealing with customizing program(Add-on program)

[Former Member]

Dear ALL,

I am new to workflow and I was assigned to create a workflow related to an customizing program(Dynpro screen).

I know we can refer to some std. template for workflow developing.

However, I don't know how to create a brand new workflow to deal with the add-on program and table.

My major difficulty is how to create a new object:

--How to create the new event to track the operation of add-on program, for example, push 'submit' button.

--How to create method to update the add-on table.

I do hope someone could give me some guidance.

Thank,

Gary

You can check the sy-ucomm value and create a event by using Function Module SWE_EVENT_CREATE. Create a Business object with relevant key fields. Create an event that will be triggered by this FM. Now you need to create Workflow Template by going to Transaction Code PFTC.

Thank you very much for your help.

However, as I am new to wf, I need more detail things.

If you can show me an example document, it will be great.

This is a Function Module that triggers an event ob Business Object tht you will create by making a subtype of Business Object. Use Transaction Code SWO1 to do so.

SWEL Transaction Code is used to track event linkage.

SWUS is used to test Workflow manually with single test.
