Hi there,
 
I just came across this issue. It comes in two flavours:
 
When processing a user decision with confirmation, take out the functio=
n
module in the "WI display" tab of the activity maintenance in the WS, t=
hen
it'll work all right. The cause for this error is that variables are be=
ing
passed sloppily when processing user decisions inline in the inbox thro=
ugh
the said function module.. SAP say they will not fix this as it is seld=
om
 
When processing methods with result parameters and end confirmations (l=
ike
any old approval), something similar happens. This is cured by an OSS n=
ote
(number escapes me at present..).
 
Hth,
Stephan

Betreff: Decision method is coded to remember last option
 
 
Hi all,
 
We are in 4.6C, and when I cancel processing of a generic user decision=
 
task
using the confirmation prompt,
the workitem returns to my inbox as expected. What is not expected by m=
e is
when I re-process the decision
I can not change the original result - I am presented with the confirma=
tion
prompt again.
 
I checked the code and found the following. I think this was introduced=
 as
standard because the object header does
indicate any modifications. I'm sure it never worked like this before, =
does
anyone know what's up? I understand from
colleagues this behaviour has been known about through several patches,=
 we
are currently on SAPKB46C28.
