<br><font size=3> </font>
<br><font size=2 color=blue face="Arial">Actually having worked with both
ABAP OO for Workflow and BOR my current opinion is - only use BOR for eventing
if you are using - a standard workflow as-is or an event technique that
doesn't support OO - like status management events. </font>
<br><font size=3> </font>
<br><font size=2 color=blue face="Arial">Otherwise stick with ABAP OO and
link to the existing BOR using an attribute of type SIBFLPORB. </font>
<br><font size=3> </font>
<br><font size=2 color=blue face="Arial">Best of both worlds. ABAP
OO is soooooooooooooooo much easier to use for enhancements. </font>

</font>
<br><font size=2 color=blue face="Arial">I don't know the answer, but here
is what I found on SDN. My experience has only been with BOR object, creating
new, and extending existing ones. Hope this helps!</font>
<br><font size=3> </font>
<br><font size=3>BOR objects is the category that have been around for
a long time, while CL is a (relatively) new possibility. You should use
whatever is more practical in each case. For instance, if you are working
with employees and everything you need is in BOR object BUS1065 it makes
sense to use that BOR object. If you find a class that has everything you
need it makes (even more) sense to use that.<br>
<br>
If you have to create a completely new object type you should try to create
a class instead of a new BOR object. If you simply need a little bit of
additional functionality or a new virtual attribute, <u>my</u> recommendation
would be to extend the object type that exists instead of trying to create
a class that extends a BOR object. </font>
<br><font size=3> </font>
<br><font size=2 color=blue face="Arial">and,</font>
<br><font size=3><b>ABAP CLASS</b><br>
Template for objects in ABAP Objects. Defined using CLASS - ENDCLASS either
globally in a class pool or locally in another ABAP program. The definition

<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif"> </font>
<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif"> Can anyone tell me the difference
between using Business Object method and Class methods in the tasks of
the Workflow. For eg. When creating a task we have 2 options. Either Assign
a Business Object method or a ABAP Object class method. So I need to know
the difference between the two. And also the advantages of using the two...</font>
