external URL link from the task description OR as an attachment

[Pallavika Patel]

Hello,
  I am trying to create a link to the AS400 image server to retrieve the
invoice image.
I tried to do it two way. First I had a link from the task description.
Here is the actual URL to AS400 image server.
HTTP://MCNTY2K06/GBIP/GBIP.ASP?PO=&INVOICE=12345&USERID=XYZ
To create this URL I have created three attribute to the FIPP (ZFIPP)
object.
1) ZHLNK = 'HTTP://MCNTY2K06/GBIP/GBIP.ASP?PO='
2) ZILNK = 'INVOICE=12345'
3) ZULNK= 'USERID= xyz'
 
When I used this variable in the task description to create invoice link
<A HREF="&ZHLNK&&&ZILNK&&&ZULNK&">INVOICEIMAGE</A>
 
When I execute the work item (decision task) this is what happens,
URL now some how looses middle variable ZILNK. Actual URL comes like
HTTP://MCNTY2K06/GBIP/GBIP.ASP?PO=userid=xyz
 
Can some body help me our here? I think because of this '&' special
character it is doing. But then what is the escape sequence? Is there any
way?
 
Also, I tried to create an attachment by using the fun module
SWL_WI_ATTACHMENT_CREATE. This fun module does creates URL link to the
workitem but this link works only via core R/3 . We are using integrated
in-box via workplace and this link gives me error message saying "This
function is not supported via your front end"
When I looked in the workflow container this attachment has been created
by type 'EXT' (bus object SOFM) instead of 'URL'.
Any Idea?
 Also, I am looking for the fn module which can create attachment in the
background by wf-batch using call transaction. This fn module does not
work by wf-batch.
