Can i change the agent ?

Thu Jun 5 10:20:05 EDT 2003

Oops!!

I based my info on what must be an old version of the BC610 class.  I agree that the SAP_WAPI* FM's should be first choice for long term stability.

Again folks, be careful when using these function modules as they are not officially released
for customer.

You should always try to use a WAPI function module first.

There is a similar functionality provided in R3E with SAP_WAPI_ADM_WORKITEM_REDORULE.
>From 4.6C there is also a forwarding WAPI called SAP_WAPI_FORWARD_WORKITEM which
may cover what you need to do.

Hello,

This function module is part of function group SWWA, which contains other useful WI API FM's.

That is a very useful FM. Thanks!

We had to write some Exclude code for our HR forms. Exclude EVERYONE
except the specific
user the task was to route to. Also exclude Admins so we could not
forward.
HR! In their own little world and not understanding what they ask for!

Thanks!

Hi Angelo,

You could use FM SWW_WI_AGENTS_CHANGE.  Add the new id to table AGENTS
and put an 'X' in AGENTS_APPEND.  If you want to exclude the original
agent, put their id in the EXCLUDED_AGENTS table.

Hope This helps,
Scott

Thanks Flavio,

your idea is very useful and probably i will adopt it.

But  i am looking for the possibility to force directly the new agent
in
the workitem... for example by a function module....

The idea is to force a new workitem to begin when the vendor master is
changed.

One possible solution is to use a terminating event on your task (or a
parallel process with a waiting for event step) and, when the field on
the
vendor master is changed, your workitem is finished and, with a loop
you
can
start a new workitem. As the vendor master is already changed, the
workitem
will go to the new agent, according to the new data.
