AW: Looking for workflow guide

[Gordon Blackmore]

I to was a workflow neophyte a few short months ago. Experience I would=20
like to share include:
Use a object type that you are familiar with.=20
Place a step type in each leg. e.g. If you are using modeled deadline=20
monitoring, the obsolete leg needs have something to go to. This is=20
obvious once you relies it.
Use send mail event as tracing tool.
 
Good luck!

Expanding on Ronen's advice, try the tutorial in the online help (basis..=20
business management.. workflow.. reference documentation.. tutorial),=20
that's very good, and then there are a few workflow books around, but the=20
only one that is comprehensive is available in German only at this time..=20
you might want to wait until Alan and friends are ready with theirs, that=20
should be quite usable :-)
=20
I agree fully with Ronen that a good workflow consultant is essential to=20
get the first project up and running. One of the most important aspects of =
 
such a move is that you will gain planning certainty, which is very=20
important politically to prove to people in your company that workflow is=20
very useful indeed and if done properly can be delivered speedily and with =
 
a reasonable budget. Once you have that consultant in, spend as much time=20
with him or her while they are building the workflow, and just ask, ask,=20
ask, and on top of that ask them to train you as the administrator also..

Dear Edward
=20
The way we learned to implement workflow apart from the basic course and=20
the documentation was:
=20
1. hire a top workflow consultant from SAP to design your first project /=20
pilot
2. get as many hours of hands-on experience with the workflow builder,=20
redefining and changing that basic design - and doing so, learning all the =
 
time
3. read the e-mails on this mailing list carefully
=20
=20
Hope this can help
=20
Best regards

Hi All
=20
I am looking for a guide to workflow.=20
I have recently been appointed as the SAP workflow person within a company =
 
that is still in thei mplementation phase. I have gone on a two week ABAP=20
course and spent some becoming familiar with ABAP. I however have not=20
found much documentation (or rather a guide) to workflow. If you have any=20
documentation or can recomend a good book or a good web site I would=20
appreciate it.
