Triggering Workflow

[Nobles, Diane]

We have had the same trouble when using "create" event types.  The only way
we can get ours to work is when we use "change" event types, etc., because
workflow in 3.1H, the client we have (you did not say which client you are
in) only triggers workflow from events using Change Documents, Status
Management or Message Control.  I was told this by my instructors and our
consultants.  Any thoughts on this by others I would like to know.

Hi All,
 
I have created a workflow that is triggered by an employee being created in
HR. I have used the event "created" in object "persdata".
 
If I use the start workflow function the workflow works well. I have
activated the event linkage. But, if I create a new employee using
transaction PA40 and enter details on the relevant infotypes the event is
not triggered.
 
I have looked in the event log and nothing relevant is reported.
 
Any ideas?
 
Thanks,
