<DIV style="RIGHT: auto"><BR style="RIGHT: auto">I have a specfic requirement to implement sales process worklow for my client .</DIV>
<DIV>Requirement: </DIV>
<DIV style="RIGHT: auto">The entire sales process starting from Sales order to Shipment cost is already completed in the legacy system, and the data is later send to Process Interface as a flat file to update the staging table in SAP through proxy.</DIV>
<DIV style="RIGHT: auto">The data recieved is for the previous day transactions, in few region records can be send every 20 minutes instantly from the legacy sytem to SAP .</DIV>
<DIV style="RIGHT: auto"> </DIV>
<DIV style="RIGHT: auto">The client is interested in doing the entire process of creation sales order to shipment process using the workflow , advantage the client thinks is the tracking process.</DIV>
<DIV style="RIGHT: auto"> </DIV>
<DIV style="RIGHT: auto">Issues Identified -</DIV>
<DIV style="RIGHT: auto">1) Locking issues while creating sales orders for the same contract.(there could be 400 sales order created in the same day and contract ),the CX_BO_TEMPORARY to handle the temporary locking issue but not a permant solution.</DIV>
<DIV style="RIGHT: auto">2) Huge volume of workflow events will be triggered in a short duration of time, </DIV>
<DIV>3) Each workflow instance triggered will be involved in creation of sales order to shipment cost prcoess.</DIV>
<DIV style="RIGHT: auto">4) Activated the event queue which distributes the load, but system performance could be affected.</DIV>
<DIV style="RIGHT: auto"> </DIV>
<DIV style="RIGHT: auto">Alternative solution proposed to do the entire process in schedule batch program and handle the error scenario through workflow .</DIV>
<DIV style="RIGHT: auto"><BR style="RIGHT: auto" clear=all><STRONG style="RIGHT: auto">Suggestion required whether the above process could be efficient through the workflow process for high voume data.</STRONG></DIV>
