I just have to ask, why are you trying to use SAP_WAPI_START_WORKFLOW and
filling in release strategies ? <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";
color:#1F497D'>The concept of release strategies is so that events get raised,
and workflows get started without you needing to write your own SAP_WAPI*
calls. If you are doing this as an exercise to get familiar with that function,
then kudos. But you should probably use SAP_WAPI_CREATE_EVENT, as managing the
start of your workflows via events is far better than starting them directing
(IMHO).<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";

<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";
color:#1F497D'>If I were testing out SAP_WAPI_START_WORKFLOW (or even
SAP_WAPI_CREATE_EVENT) I would try using a business object that was not linked
to release strategies because I think they just muddy the waters.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
