Workflow vs. SAP Portal

[Dart, Jocelyn]

Claus,
Do all users have to be created on WAS to receive tasks in UWL? Yes - they still need an SAP user id to identify them even if they never log on via the GUI.  There are different pricing schemes available for this - talk to your SAP sales guy.
 
How should the scenario be realized today on WAS 6.20? Users decisions for the decision boxes.  Input forms are more difficult - if you have a 6.40 system in your landscape somewhere that gives you the option of SAP/Adobe Interactive Forms - great for non-SAP users as they can be used online and offline (e.g. download, fill in, upload).  Other options in 6.20 are BSP or JSP applications.
 
Can it be done without ITS/Web Transactions - how? see above.
Regards,
Jocelyn

Hi group
 
Assume following scenario:
Workflow runtime is based on WAS 6.20
Decisions boxes and input forms should be received as tasks via portal UWL -
users do not login to WAS via Gui
No business transactions to be executed in WAS - only used for workflow
runtime system.
 
Questions:
Do all users have to be created on WAS to receive tasks in UWL?
How should the scenario be realized today on WAS 6.20?
Can it be done without ITS/Web Transactions - how?
 
Thanks
Claus
