Executing workitems from reports SWI1 and SWI2_FREQ

[Roehlen, Peter]

Thanks Vincze,
 
I agree with your statements.  You've also saved me the time of logging =
this
on OSS since you've already found out SAP's position on this.

Peter,
 
My feeling is we have the same problem, but my explanation was not =
precise.
 
1./
 My opinion is that the possible agent of a workflow task must be as =
close
as possible. If you can define the set of possible agent - at case of =
roll
functionality also - you have to do that. Usage of the general task is
avoidable, if it is possible.
 
2./
  My personal statement is:
 
It is an error if one can execute a work item (using SWI2 transaction =
for
example under 4.0B) if she/he is the member of possible agent, but =
she/he is
not member of the selected agent!  Sorry to say our SAP works the above
way... I created a note, and I was told, I am not right that is normal, =
that
one can execute work item, nevertheless she/he is not the member of
selected agent but she/he is the member of possible agent.
 
So using the precisely defined possible agent, you can decrease the =
effect
of this "disputed" functionality.

Vincze,
 
I think I have a different problem, in that the people (ie SAP support
staff) are part of the possible agents but I'd rather they not be able =
to
execute the workitem via SWI1 or SWI2_FREQ.  You might have clarified =
the
issue for me however in that perhaps the possible agents need to be =
pared
back for our workitems.  Often our standard task agent assignment is =
set to
General Task, and the actual agents are determined either in a standard =
role
or the workflow template.  Perhaps we  should not be using General =
Task?
 
Thanks

Hello,
 
  I think I have the same problem, if I understand you well.
  The fact one can execute a workitem (SWI2)
   " even if she/he is not one of the selected agents for that =
workitem",
   but he is member of the possible agent of the workitem task !
  If the SWI2 executor is not the member of the possible agent of the =
actual
workitem task,
  he can not execute it !
  My personal opinion is:  this is an error ...
 
  I have written a SAP note, but I was rejected !
 
  Do you agree with me ?
  Your problem is same what I am talking about ?

Fellow workflow fans,
 
To be better able to support SAP workflow in general, all of our SAP =
support
team have a need to use the workflow adminstration reports such as
SWI2_FREQ, Work Items Per Task and SWI1, Work Item Selection.  It =
appears
however, that it is possible to drill down on the output for both of =
these
reports to the workitem itself and from there reserve or execute it =
even if
you are not one of the selected agents for that workitem.
 
Does anyone know if it is it possible to secure these reports in such a =
way
that they can still be viewed but the option to execute or reserve =
workitems
is not active?
