<p class="MsoNormal">Mike & Florin,<br>
thanks very much for explanation. Initially I was using CL object in BOR method
locally. As I am using the same object in different methods (steps), thought of
passing object reference from first step…I will switch back to my previous code.
May be I will do more experiments in next phases..</p>

parameters.<br><br>Hi Sharath,<br><br>1) ... hm... didn't realize that OO-Workflow works on 4.7 already (stable).<br>Try using ABAP reference type SIBFLPOR<br><br>2) If you cannot define the parameter as CL -Object, the macro will try to<br>convert the runtime-reference of a BO to a persistent reference of the BO,<br>which has to fail for obvious reasons.
