AW: User Status Update Fails?

User Status Update Fails?Marlin,
 
I would go the way SAP takes usually for all object types that are status
management-enabled: include the interface object type IFSTATUS in your
object definition. It provides you with a method "UserStatusSet" that you
can use in background tasks. If it's not possible to inherit this method
from IFSTATUS, you could at least look into that object type in order to see
which function module (if I remember correctly, it's "STATUS_SET_INTERNAL"
or something like that) is called by it.
 
Cheers,

Betreff: User Status Update Fails?
 
 
  Hi,
 
  I have created a workflow which is supposed to approve and release a
project.  (PS module)
 
  The workflow initiator gets to choose among different approval chains.
Each approval chain has up to five levels of approval.  Each approval level
is set by updating the project's user status field.
 
  I have created a sub-object type ZBUS2001 and a new method
ApprovalProcess.  This method calls a function module which is simply a BDC
program using call transaction (transaction CJ20N) to update the user status
field.  The function module has been tested successfully.  It also works
fine when I test the method and the sub-object type.  However,  when I test
the task (User Status Update Task) individually using SWUS, which uses the
new method, the task fails (WF-BATCH executes SWW_BI_EXECUTE_S).
 
  This is on R/3 4.6B.  Any ideas?
 
  Thanks,
  Marlin
