<p><font color="navy" face="Arial" size="2"><span style="font-size: 10pt; font-family: Arial; color: navy;">When we upgraded from 4.7 to ECC 6.0,
workflow processing was changed. See SAP's response below:</span></font></p>

users could be executing dialog processes (tasks) in parallel branches of the

into sub-workflows in order for the workflow to work without getting enqueue

<p style="margin-bottom: 12pt;"><font face="Times New Roman" size="3"><span style="font-size: 12pt;">Hi All.<br>
<br>
I have workflow task that execute ABAP program via call transaction. So when
user receive work item they execute work item and bring ABAP program.<br>
Within this program user need to click certain button. When they execute
certain button, data base field get updated and need to update task container
element.<br>
<br>
The design is when work item executed, it send work item to ABAP program and do
SAP_WAPI_WRITE_CONTAINER to update container element depend on selected button.<br>
I got enqueue error message says that work item has been locked by the user it
self.<br>
It is obvious when user execute work item and transaction called, work item
still get locked.<br>
<br>
Is there any alternative to update container element of work item while work
item executed?<br>
Statement "LEAVE TO TRANSACTION" is not an option since I need to
pass parameters value when I call ABAP transaction<br>
<br>
</span></font></p>
