"SAP Workflow Users'<BR>
Group"<BR><BR><BR><BR><BR><BR><BR>Hi All,<BR><BR>I have a
situation where a user complained that they did not receive a<BR>certain
workitem.<BR>On investigating this I discovered that the workitem in question
had<BR>been reserved 1 day after creation, but the user claims that it was
not<BR>in his inbox on the day that it was actually created.<BR><BR>The
scenario is as follows:<BR>A quality notification is created, at which point
my WF is triggered,<BR>and a workitem (CHANGE Notification) is sent to a group
of users.<BR><BR>In the meantime, I have managed to reproduce this problem on
our<BR>development system, but only one time.<BR>In the WF log I couldn't see
any problems. WF started.......agents<BR>determined..........workitem status
READY, but the workitem was not in<BR>my inbox after a refresh.<BR>I continued
processing the Notification in QM02, and then the workitem<BR>appeared in my
inbox.<BR><BR>Is it possible that there can be delays in delivering workitems
to<BR>agents?<BR><BR>Kind
