AW: Creating an event to invoke a workflow each time a field valu e changes

Tue Aug 5 09:58:37 EDT 2003

Thank you all.  I did find that yesterday.  For all other objects the name was the table name itself.  That is what threw me off.

I am in business now.  I did set up the Change document conditions to trigger events when QMEL-PRIORK is changed.

regards

Hi Manju,

VIQMEL-PRIORK is part of the change-document 'MELDUNG'.
You find it as QMEL_PRIOK-NEW/-OLD.

Hope this helps.

regards

Heinz

There are lots of ways to raise events. Perhaps you should do a bit more
reading... there's a fair bit on this in the SAP Library help under Basis >
Business Management > Workflow.
You'll also find info on the change documents there. If the field is not
part of the change document is generally for a good reason so suggest you
look elsewhere.
Status management is always a good one for notifications.

No VIQMEL-PRIORK is not part of the change document. I am trying to get
that in place by going to SCDO. However, I was wondering if there was any
other alternative.

Any other ways of invoking an event other than change document? Also looks
like a defining in SCDO forces all fields to be on the change documents
created. Can I restrict to VIQMEL-PRIORK only on the change document?
thanks

Of course if VIQMEL-PRIORK is part of a change document you could simply use
the change document event creation configuration (its in the workflow menu >

Manju,

A WAPI is a workflow API (application programming interface) that performs a
specific function (peace of code that does something related to workflow).
Within an ABAP program you can use this
f.i. to trigger an event. Maybe there is a simpler solution to trigger your
event in case the field has been changed, I do not know. Hope someone else
can help you out with this one.

Regards,

Fred Kouw
