Workflow best practices

[Former Member]

Hi all,

I am new to workflow, and I would like to know what are the best practices in WF design, for example locking objects, checking existence... It would be great if one of you guys can provide me with snapshots of the skeleton of generic WF for change or approval for example. Thank you in advance

Best regards,

Haku

Hi,

How much time do you have?

When I started out, I first did the workflow tutorials provided in the SAP help (just select your library at help.sap.com and then click on the BC-BMT-WFM bit)

This will provide you with a basic understandig of worklflows.

furthermore I detest generic workflows. The really heart of every productive money making workflow is the business object for which part of SAP you're trying to automate a process. (business object can be viewed and tested with SWO1)

Kind regards, Rob Dielemans
