Renaming SAP Userids - workflow consequences

[Alon Raskin]

Hi Adam,
 
You could write a program that forwards all the items from the old user Ids
to the new user Ids. Once you have forwarded them the program could then
delete the old user id. Let me know if you want me to slap some source code
together for you.

Subject: Renaming SAP Userids - workflow consequences
 
Perveyors of Workflow knowledge,
 
Long time reader, first time question asker.
 
We're using the 4.0B SAP system and use workflow for our MM module purchase
requisitions.  We are currently re-naming all our SAP userids and therefore
must change the ZM002 requisitioner table to replace the old userid with
the new userid.  That works fine and new requisitions are workflowed to the
correct person.  Unfortunately, when we rename a userid they lose
everything in their workflow inbox.  Is there a job that can be run to
reorganise the workflows to accept the new userid over the old one?
 
Thank you kindly,
Adam Waring
