Rule using function module SWX_GET_MANAGER

[David Weston]

I would suggest instead of the rule, create a background step in your wf =
to
reference your own method (which finds your agents) which fills an =
export
parameter that would contain the agents you want.

My problem is putting the results into a container after the rule runs. =
The
rule only allows imports correct ?  I need a way to hold onto that agent =
to
use later on in the workflow.

I would suggest creating your own rule FM.  In addition to the imports =
for
the org objects, add another container element for levels up.  Then in =
your
function loop the call to SWX_GET_MANAGER "levels" times.  This would =
get
rid of the need for nasty background steps.
 
Cheers,

The problem I am having is moving the manager from the rule back to the =
work
flow. Since we are not using version 6.X or above I cant move the =
manager
back in the _rule_result container.
 
Thanks,
Jim

Hi Jim,
Really depends on the manager you're looking for. You can either bind =
the
actual agent from your first approval back to the workflow and feed that
into the next rule, or you can evaluate them independently. Option 1 is
simple and takes substitution/multiple recipients into account. Option 2
requires a custom method (FM RH_GET_ACTORS) and two background steps. =
Cheers
Mike
