AW: kick off workflow without an event

[Nieder Martin]

Hello Brian,
 
it is no problem to start a workflow by a Z-FM or Z-Report without =
calling
the event:
 
CODING:
 
  wg_workflow =3D 'WS99200011'.
 
  swc_create_object og_trkorr 'ZTPTRANSP' a_trkorr.
 
  wg_handle =3D og_trkorr-handle.
 
  CALL FUNCTION 'SWO_OBJECT_ID_GET'
       EXPORTING
            object  =3D wg_handle
      IMPORTING
*          RETURN  =3D
           objid   =3D sg_object_key.
 
* FILL CONTAINER *
  ig_container-element =3D 'TRANSPORTAUFTRAG'.
  ig_container-value   =3D sg_object_key.
  APPEND ig_container.
 
  ig_container-element =3D 'SACHGEBIET'.
  ig_container-value   =3D a_sachgb.
  APPEND ig_container.
 
  ig_container-element =3D 'PRUEFMODUS'.
  IF a_frfa =3D 'X'.
    ig_container-value   =3D '2'.
  ELSE.
    ig_container-value   =3D '1'.
  ENDIF.
  APPEND ig_container.
 
  ig_container-element =3D 'FREIGABEMODUS_ID'.
  ig_container-value   =3D a_freiid.
  APPEND ig_container.
 
* START Workflow=20
  CALL FUNCTION 'SWU_START_WORKFLOW'
       EXPORTING
            task            =3D wg_workflow
*           LANGUAGE        =3D SY-LANGU
            user            =3D sy-uname
*           SENDER_ID       =3D
       IMPORTING
*           RETURN_CODE     =3D
            workitem_id     =3D wg_workitem_id
       TABLES
            container       =3D ig_container
            message_lines   =3D ig_message
            attachment_list =3D ig_list.
 
  LOOP AT ig_message.
    ....
  ENDLOOP
 
  IF NOT wg_workitem IS INTIAL
*   WORKFLOW WAS NOT STARTED
    ...
  ENDIF
 
Hope this helps.

Betreff: kick off workflow without an event
 
 
Hello everyone,
 
We would like to change how our workflow is kicked off.  Currently, a =
custom
transaction's code calls the SWE_EVENT_CREATE function module.  We =
would
like to
instead use the SWW_WI_CREATE or SWW_WI_CREATE_SIMPLE.
 
Is there a way to instantiate our business object via these FM's any =
any
others
like we do with SWE_EVENT_CREATE, but without calling the event?  Or =
would
we
need to do that as a subsequent step in the workflow itself?
 
Per the BC610 class performance tips, we would like take advantage of =
the
performance improvements by avoiding to  call an event from within =
custom
code.
 
Thanks,
Brian
