<div>Hi Sue </div>
<div>Ok I'm guessing somewhere its looking for a gui custom control (which requires a dialog user).</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>If I were you I would go back to your ABAP programmer & get them to run the program in background (ie set up a little batch job) using a userid of the same type as WF-BATCH. I'm betting their background test might have been done using their own userid
as the executing user ...which isn't a true test of backgroundicity ;)</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Also a good time to double check the task method is passing all the right parameters. </div>
<div>Good luck</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Rgds</div>
<div>Jocelyn</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Sent from my iPhone with many apologies for the spelling, grammar and any other deficiencies </div>
