you both for your help. It was the negative logic that confused me.
Needless to say it was a case of user error - I should have used AND instead of
OR. Have a nice day!</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<DIV><SPAN class=452314014-18022002><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2>Hi
Ty. Could it be a problem with the negative logic as you've stated below? If
the document type is 'ZBPR', then it is NOT 'NB', so your OR condition is
satisfied and the workflow would start. If the condition is NOT 'ZBPR' AND NOT
'NB' (instead of OR), then I think it would work correctly. I'm not sure how
much control you have with the start condition editor over OR versus AND.

<DIV><SPAN class=980495213-18022002><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff
size=2>Sorry about that. It doesn't error or abend. The
events are published. Whenever I am trying to get it to check more
than one condition value, it seems to ignore all of them and starts the
workflow anyway. For example, I have the condition that if
the document type is NOT equal to 'ZBPR', start
the workflow. Since this is a single condition value, if I create
a document of this type the notification workflow is not started.
That's great! However, if I add another condition value to this
and say that if the document type is NOT 'ZBPR' or 'NB' then start the
workflow...even if I create a document of the type 'ZBPR', it starts
the workflow. Hope that clarified things a little. Thanks for
your help.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

start condition problem<BR><BR></FONT></DIV>
<P><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2>Hi everybody,</FONT> <BR><FONT
face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2>Hope someone can help me. I'm on
version 4.6C. My problem is this. I am trying to create a
start condition via transaction SWB_COND for a workflow definition to
send notifications to users whenever a purchase order is created for a
requisition that they had entered. However, not all requisitions
are created by individuals. Some are created by batch ids.
These we would like to ignore. We have determined that only
certain document types (ZBPR and NB) are created by batch ids.
</FONT></P>
<P><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2>The problem is that when I have
a single value in the start condition (ZBPR for instance), it works
fine. However, if I enter two or more document types (ZBPR and NB)
in the start condition, it bombs. Has anyone experienced
this?</FONT></P>
<P><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2>Thanks your help.</FONT> </P>
