Variable for personnel no in workflow

[Former Member]

Hello all,

I had prepared a workflow in which i am sending a mail to administrator if any employee changes his/her personnel data.Now with this mail i want to send the personnel no of the respective employee who changes the personnel data.I tried using variables but it just displays 00000000.

Please give the detail explanation.I need it urgently.

Thanks in advance.

Hi Anand,

Pls check follwing points:

1. Have you done binding for <i>_EVT_Object</i> element for event container to Workflow container binding. By this, you will receive instance of object in workflow.

2. Check the Object as received above is passed in binding for send mail step.

Then you will be able to use its attribute to send it in mail's description.

Hope this helps.

Hi,

Hi,

1. Let me know what object type you are using. So that I'll be able to tell you whether Personnel no will be availabe in attribute.

2. Regarding checking binding for EVTOBJECT : Check at the <i>Triggering events</i> Tab in workflow builder, select the Event linkage entry and click on <i>binding</i> Button.

Hope this helps.

Regds,

Akshay

PS: Some points would be nice if it helps.

Hello,

I am using persdata as object type and two events.Changed and Create.

Hi,

PERSDATA holds the personnel number in the key (check swo1 for persdata, then open the keyfields)

You're interested in the person who changed the data, normally you can use the event --> Wf binding for that, just link &_EVT_CREATOR& to a containerelement capable of holding that data (e.g wfinitiator)

Hi,

It is giving me error when i do this binding.Also the keyfield does not give any personnel no when inserted in the mail.

[former_member186746 · Accepted solution]

yes, that is possible if in the workflow a) the container does not existor b) tha wf container has different format than evt_creator)

Hi,

1. Check for the container element (personnel number) in the workflow log.

2. If you can find the value then, open the mail task in transaction(PFTC_CHG)

and add a container element of the format personnel number as import

parameter.

3. Do the binding between workflow container (personnel no) and mail step

task container (personnel no).

4. If you cannot find the value for personnel number in the workflow log then

it is something to do with the task from where you get the personnel number.
