Phil,
Thanks for pointing out Work Queues. Where can I look (the on-line
documentation does not say much) for more information on how to use Work
queues?
Can I send items in a Work Queue to different users? Agent and deadline
monitoring recipient determination needs to be performed for each item.
Regards,
Ramki.

Before you push the limits of workflows,
a warning bell goes off for me.
Is the right approach to a problem being used.
I don't know what the issue is, but the question should be asked.
Have you looked into Workflow WORK QUEUES ?
100 parallel processes or more.... Sounds a like a very repetitive
structure.
Where many things should happen. Perhaps
Work queues might just be the tool.

We are on R/3 Enterprise 6.20.
We are developing a custom workflow for processing invoices blocked for
quantity, which requires sending a work item for each invoice line item
that has a quantity mismatch. I am using the dynamic parallel processing
option using a multiline container element. This option has a limitation of
99
lines for the multiline element which means it generates 99 work items in
parallel. I populate the multiline element with a background task with the
required information (PO, PO Line, etc.) first.
I am looking for answers for the following:
1) Is there is a limit on the size of WF container so that I can decide on
the size of my multiline element.
2) Is there a limit on the number of parallel work items in a workflow so
that I can include processing in my workflow for situations in which the
invoice may have more than 99 items blocked for quantity (the business
assures me it is not the case).
