WF Error - Method cannot be executed

[Sue Doughty]

Thank you everyone for your response.

The function module contained code to do the process in the foreground and in the background based on how it was called.  So, we made a copy of the FM and with only the background processing in it , ran another test from the workflow and we got passed the error!

Thanks again for your help!

Hi Sue
Ok I'm guessing somewhere its looking for a gui custom control (which requires a dialog user).

If I were you I would go back to your ABAP programmer & get them to run the program in background (ie set up a little batch job) using a userid of the same type as WF-BATCH.  I'm betting their background test might have been done using their own userid as the executing user ...which isn't a true test of backgroundicity ;)

Also a good time to double check the task method is passing all the right parameters.
Good luck

Greetings Wuggers!

We are on ECC 6.0 Rel 731 SP-Level 0013

I am at the end of my rope.  ☺  Please help!

I created a BOR background method that calls a Z Function module that creates a smart form, converts it to a PDF and then emails it.

When I test it in SWO1, it works.  When my ABAPer runs the function module in background outside the workflow, it works.

When it is executed in the Workflow it fails with the messages below:

The error message indicates an error in the Control Framework

We have searched notes, Google….everything we can think of and cannot figure this out.

We found one place that said to delete the task to method binding….we did that.

We can tell that the method is not being executed because we put a set container statement to 99 at the front of it and this never gets set.  We get this error too…

Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
