Hi ,
I have to send workflow to the initiator. In the Event Container I have defined one variable as requester.

Please let me know
Thanks

Business Object ZBUS1001 (Deligate from BUS1001)
I have Created One dialog screen. After filling all the necessary data when user press the Reserver(Custom Push Button) then workflow initiated. When user press the Reserve button I am executing the following code.
objtype = 'ZBUS1001'. "PLM Material
MOVE zplm_pnr_scr-matnr TO objkey.
event = 'CreatePLMMaterial'.
REFRESH event_container.
CALL FUNCTION 'SWC_ELEMENT_SET'
EXPORTING
element = 'Attachment' Value 'X'
field = zplm_pnr_scr-attachment (Screen field)
TABLES
container = event_container
EXCEPTIONS
OTHERS = 1.
CALL FUNCTION 'SWC_ELEMENT_SET'
EXPORTING
element = 'Requester'
field = sy-uname
TABLES
container = event_container
EXCEPTIONS
OTHERS = 1.
CALL FUNCTION 'SWC_ELEMENT_SET'
EXPORTING
element = 'Material'
field = zplm_pnr_scr-matnr
TABLES
container = event_container
EXCEPTIONS
OTHERS = 1.
CALL FUNCTION 'SWE_EVENT_CREATE'
EXPORTING
objtype = objtype
objkey = objkey
event = event
TABLES
event_container = event_container
EXCEPTIONS
objtype_not_found = 1
OTHERS = 2.
IF sy-subrc <> 0.
MESSAGE ID sy-msgid TYPE sy-msgty NUMBER sy-msgno
WITH sy-msgv1 sy-msgv2 sy-msgv3 sy-msgv4.
ENDIF.
COMMIT WORK.
***************
Event has three parameters
Requester
Attachment
Material
Workflow logic
If attachment = 'X'
Send the workitem to the initiator. that What I wanted to Achieve.
Please let me know if you need some extra stuff.
Thanks

In order for your workflow to work as is, Requestor should be defined (both in WF & Report) based on structure SWHACTOR.
<b>data: requestor like SWHACTOR.
event_creator-OTYPE = 'US'.
event_creator = sy-uname</b>
You can also try passing the CREATOR parameter to the FM as below and use wf_initiator as agent.
CALL FUNCTION 'SWE_EVENT_CREATE'
EXPORTING
objtype = objtype
objkey = objkey
event = event
<b>creator = event_creator</b>

Thanks ,
I was not concatenating with 'US'.
It worked now. I have one more Question.
I have more than one user now. How Can I send "User decision" to all those selected user. I created one backgroup task to find out the number of users and in the workflow container I have defined multiline variable. I am getting 4 users. How can I send the user decision to all the 4 users. Please suggest me .
thanks
Aman
Aman,
Please do award points to my previous answer if it resolved your issue.
Rather than determining the users via background task, you should create an agent determination rule (called Role upto 4.6C release) using function module (Txn PFAC). If you are on a release 6.20 or above there are utilities that can redeterminee agents for an incomplete work item. This is very useful where users' responsibilities change and/or new users are assigned.
If you want to use your workflow as is, all you have to make sure is your background task returns a multiline variable that uses the same structure as SWHACTOR, bind it to the WF container multiline element. Select Expression for agent for the decision task and assign the WF multiline element as before.
BTW, you should start a new thread for an unrelated question once the original question has been successfully resolved. This will help others finding solutions quickly when faced with a similar problem.

I wanted to use the workflow as it is.
I tired to use your suggession , but now I am getting error message (TISUSERS -> multiline workflow container of type SWHACTOR)
Expression &TISUSERS& has an invalid type or reference.
Previously TISUSERS had type -> multiline workflow container of type WFSYST-INITIATOR.
And in the background task I was concatenating 'US'<userid>
In the table I was getting 4 records like that
USDHIRA (DHIRA - SAP USER)
USTAVILDAR (TAVILDAT - SAP USER)
US...
US...
the workflow was sending the Decision step to DHIRA only. I think because of first record in the table.
But I need to send the decision step to all 4 users.
And also I need to export one parameter from the function module(task container) to workflow container.
userfound type char1
and in the workflow , I need to check if userfound = 'Y' send the notification to initiator. that why I wanted to stick with second option.
I will definately award full point to you.
Please suggest.
Thanks
Aman
Aman,
Make sure the task that gets the agents has a multiline container element (let us call it T_Agents for this example) based on either Structure field WFSYST-INITIATOR or Type SWHACTOR. Make sure Export checkbox is selected in the properties tab. The method behind the task also should use the same data reference (it does not really matter in this case because both are character fields of same length).
WF container should have a multiline conatiner element exactly like the task ((let us call it WF_Agents). Make sure both the Import & Export checkboxes are selected in the properties tab for the WF element.
In the WF, perform Task to WF binding for T_Agents to WF_Agents for the step that gets the agents.
For the decision step, select Expression for Agents and assign the WF_Agents element.
This works perfectly well for me.
I do not see any problem in exporting one more parameter for userfound. But do keep in mind what you need to address the situation when the background task does not find any agents.
I hope you are aware that you can award some points to every answer that is helpful and full points to one answer that resolved the issue. Please follow the link below.
