<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face=Tahoma><span style='font-size:10.0pt'>Hi,<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face=Tahoma><span style='font-size:10.0pt'><o:p> </o:p></span></font></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face=Tahoma><span style='font-size:10.0pt'>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 size=2 face=Tahoma><span style='font-size:10.0pt'><o:p> </o:p></span></font></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face=Tahoma><span style='font-size:10.0pt'>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 size=2 face=Tahoma><span style='font-size:10.0pt'><o:p> </o:p></span></font></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face=Tahoma><span style='font-size:10.0pt'>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:

<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face=Tahoma><span style='font-size:10.0pt'>So
it seems like the response from SRM is not being correctly formed when it responds
to the initial request from R/3.<o:p></o:p></span></font></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><font size=2 face=Tahoma><span style='font-size:10.0pt'>I
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>
