<DIV>Hi Sushil,</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>As far as I'm aware, the standard deadline functionality cannot be made to consider working time only.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>To date, I've always created an additional method which I've called in a step prior to my deadline step that calculates the deadline date in working days and then stores it in a container. I then use the container containing the correct date in my step with the deadline.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>To calculate working days using a factory calender, there are a series of function modules all beginning with COPF* (I think - sorry, I don't have access to a system at this moment.) I created an extended version of business object FACTCAL with a generic method that I can reuse for this purpose.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Anyway, if the above sounds like what you want to do and you can't find the relevant function module, email me and I'll send you the details.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Cheers</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Peter Roehlen.<BR></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2><SPAN class=995290923-09052005>I am trying to use deadline monitoring for approval tasks in my workflow. One of the issues I am running into is to set it up so that it only counts workdays as one day. Is there a way to set it up? As I am not sure what my options are, your suggestions will be greatly appreciated.</SPAN></FONT></DIV>
