<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Hello Seth,</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I have never used the workitem-display exit, but
mayhaps this offers a solution path:</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>- You /can/ somehow create your own folders, when
using a business object instance and put this into the work item container
_WI_GROUP_ID</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>- For each object instance, a new folder will be
created under the folder "By organizational ..." (or however exactly this folder
is named)</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>- You'll need a business object like ZFOLDER, which
pretty much nothing of functionality, but a key fields, let's say 10 Characters
TYPE C</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>- In the work item display tab (the extension that
you had to program) you offer a drop-down box and a save-button to reassign the
container value. The save button updates the work item container through the
usual framework. The work item is currently not locked, because the execution
hasn't started.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>- On the next entry into the SAP Business
Workplace, the new assignment will happen (apparently the folders are generated
only when entering the workplace)</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Best wishes,</FONT></DIV>

<P><FONT face=Arial size=2>All,</FONT> </P>
<P><FONT face=Arial size=2>Does anyone know of a way to create folders in the
business workplace under the workflow tab? I need the folders for
workitems, not documents. </FONT></P>
<P><FONT face=Arial size=2>We have some users that have very large volumes of
a particular type of workitem and want a way to file and organize these
workitems so that they can efficiently work the queue. I have never seen
a way to create folders and tried searching OSS with no luck. Anyone
know of a way to do this or have a good idea for a work around?</FONT></P>
<P><FONT face=Arial size=2>I thought of using a dynamic column so that they
could sort/filter; however, they need to be able to change the value at will
for "filing" purposes so that won't work. The only other solution I
could think of is to let the users use the priority settings (we do not use
priorities on these workitems) so that they could come up with their own
system for what each level means then sort and/filter.</FONT></P>
<P><FONT face=Arial size=2>Any thoughts or ideas?</FONT> </P>
<P><FONT face=Arial size=2>Thanks,</FONT> <BR><FONT face=Arial
