Pass on Workitem Priority to subsequent steps

[Michael Pade]

Hi Miguel,
 
thanks for your reply but the problem is that the correct priority is not
passed to the workitems
so it wont help to display it in a dynamic colum :)
 
BR from Germany and have a nice weekend!

Hi,
 
Never had that problem...but once I had to implement the same
functionality (sorting work items) and I used another way than using the
priority.
It is possible to add "custom" columns (up to 4) in the SAP In-box, the
column content is linked to a task container element that you define. I
created a specific element for this purpose but maybe if you link it to
_wf_priority it will solve your problem.
 
Hope it will help.

Hi all,
 
Customer is on 4.6B.
 
I've experienced some strange behaviour with passing on the workitem
priority to subsequent steps:
 
With the start of our workflow I am passing the priority (_WF_Priority)
as
import parameter. These
are used in the inbox as some kind of sort criteria.
This works fine for all priorities (1-9). One can see the correct
imported
priority in the workflow container.
But it is only passed to the next dialog step if the priority in the
wf
container is below 5 which I find strange!
It doesn't work with priorities 6-9!
I have set the default priority of the dialog step to 9 cause I
thought
maybe it will only be passed
from the workflow container if the step's default is less? But it
doesn't
work either!
 
Has anyone ever come through something like this??
Any hints appreciated.
 
Thanks and br,
Mike
