<P class=MsoNormal><FONT face=Tahoma size=2><SPAN style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt">I am
working on a webflow scenario that integrates a process between two SAP systems
-being R/3 Enterprise and SRM 4.0. The idea is that a workflow in started in R/3
when an invoice is held. It collects various pieces of information then starts a
corresponding workflow in SRM using a webflow activity, and should then wait
until the SRM workflow is complete. The SRM workflow will request creation of a
service confirmation to an agent. Once this is complete, the SRM workflow ends
and the R/3 workflow will continue from there.<o:p></o:p></SPAN></FONT></P>

<P class=MsoNormal><FONT face=Tahoma size=2><SPAN
style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt">Because I haven't worked with the webflow step before, I
started by just creating a simple example. In the example, an R/3 workflow fills
a container element with the value of a user-id and passes it to an SRM workflow
which sends an email to this user. A reference workflow is created with the same
container element. I just wanted to see the process working so I know how to
write up a spec for the real workflow scenario mentioned above and be sure that
it is going to work!<o:p></o:p></SPAN></FONT></P>

<P class=MsoNormal><FONT face=Tahoma size=2><SPAN style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt">I have
the example working to the point where the initiating R/3 workflow successfully
sends the wf-xml message to the SRM system, which starts the SRM workflow
(passing the container value of my user-id correctly). The SRM workflow
completes ok. But before anything else can happen, the R/3 workflow goes into
error. The error message is "XML tag <ProcessInstanceKey> not
available"</SPAN></FONT><FONT size=2><SPAN lang=EN-US style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt">.

seems like the response from SRM is not being correctly formed when it responds

found a message previously in this group which suggested that it might be an
authentication problem. I tried using an authentication rule in the header of
the SRM workflow (passing a user and password to it) but it didn't make any
difference. Does anyone have any idea what is going wrong or what I should
check?<o:p></o:p></SPAN></FONT></P>
