Problems with start conditions

[Dart, Jocelyn]

Hi Jose,
Don't delete the check function module directly - use transaction SWB_COND
to delete your start condition in the same way you created it.  Then everything
should be cleaned up cleanly.

Hi every-one
 
We've figured out the problem for the Z FM. It was part of an upgrade - when I messed with it the syntax rules were enforced - TYPE is not allowed and had to be replaced by LIKE. Why the error goes away when the condition FM is replaced I don't know.....

Hi every-one
 
We have a "badly" written workflow that starts for all document movement types in MM. I decided to try the start conditions in 4.6C. After creating the start condition I realised that it would not work as the trigger was for an event item and not a workflow. I then deleted the start condition. However, the FM it created is still linked to the event, and the table swbrulecou still has the conditions in it. When I try and delete the FM from the event in SWETYPV, I get a strange error -  Receiver function module Z_WF_PTP_CREATE_EVENT_RESB: Parameter OBJTYPE has an invalid reference. I have made no changes to the FM and did a remote compare with the FM on QA and there are no changes. The interface has been defined as follows:
*"  IMPORTING
*"     VALUE(OBJTYPE) TYPE  SWETYPECOU-OBJTYPE
*"     VALUE(OBJKEY) TYPE  SWEINSTCOU-OBJKEY
*"     VALUE(EVENT) TYPE  SWEINSTCOU-EVENT
*"     VALUE(RECTYPE) TYPE  SWETYPECOU-RECTYPE
*"  TABLES
*"      EVENT_CONTAINER STRUCTURE  SWCONT
 
When I put the FM created by the start condition back into the event, the error goes away.
 
Anybody have any ideas?
 
Regards
 
Jose
