only if you choose the 'old' container persistence. When using XML persistence
in your workflow no entries will be written to these tables. You can change
the settings for the persistence profile of a workflow via the builder =>
Basic Data => Version Dependent => Control tab. Look in the 'Persistence
profile' tab and you can change the settings (But I would not recommend
changing it).<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;color:black'>The first thing I
wonder is why would you be doing lookups in SWW_CONTOB? You should <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;color:black'>probably be using
SAP_WAPI_READ_CONTAINER rather than doing table lookups.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;color:black'>You said you want
to track the history of this document thru workflow; don’t the standard reports
provide enough information? Swi2_freq, or, from the object, you can use Generic
Object Services.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;color:black'>As for archiving,
if you archived the data for the workflow – then you would not find the same
data related to the PS object in SWW_CONTOB.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:11.0pt;color:black'>You can read
about the affects of archiving on workflow data starting with the SAP Help (<a
