Workflow for Creating Maintenance Work ORders

[Soady, Phil]

Richard,
Try New Object as delegated subtype to Order.
Add custom method to your object.
 
In the method Call transaction iw31 using int_tab.
in mode, E (error) Int tabl contains detail of screen 1.
 
The first screen contains the order type,
the user will be dropped in iw31 in the second.
 
Alternative,
SHDO (variant transaction on IW31.
 
The variant prefills order type.
 
Call the new variant transaction .
Ie not CALL using, just call transaction.
 
 
Check out transaction IBIP in PM perhaps there is something useful there.

I want the workflow to execute IW31 and populate the Order Type field.
Order creation will be done by the user.  At present, IW31 is allowed 2
order types EMER and URGT, defaults to EMER so doesn't get changed and hence
inaccurate data is entered.  So I thought build two workflows one that
executes transaction IW31 using URGT and the other using EMER.
 
I hope I havent confused you any more.
 
IW31 Create Maintenance Work Order

Hi Richard,
What does the workflow do exactly,
How does it create the order ?
Or specifically what should/does your  transaction do ?

I wish to build two workflows that use IW31 PM Order Creation.  There will
be no triggering event as such, I will create a transaction.  This is my
dilema..we have two order types EMER and URGT, I want my work flow to
populate the Order type field for me, I have been experimenting with
containers and bindings but cannot get that field to populate it just stays
blank!!  Do I need to use a BAPI here?
 
Any help will be appreciated
 
Thanks
Richard
