deleting work item from inbox

Wed Aug 24 02:04:32 EDT 2005

Hi Sharath Chandra,

For the example that you are talking about another way to delete a work
item for a specific user is use transaction SWI5.

In the type field you capture "US"
In the ID field you capture the user's user id

This will provide you will a list of all work items available for that
user.
This is an example of what you should see

Work items to be processed

         1  NAME OF USER

             1  TS90100212     Generic decision task

         1  Not reserved by an agent

             1  TS90000087     Decision: specify substitute?

 You simply double click on the the work item you want to logically delete
until you get to the Header of the work item.
Then you choose the edit and change and logically delete option.

You could also use transaction SWI1. for this transaction it's good to know
the work items id of the header work item.
You capture the header work item id in the ID field and clear all other
fields and execute.
Then double click on that item and then again on the header in the
technical view and then choose edit and then delete logically.

Hi,
you can cancel work items also from your workplace. Just go and display the
work item, go to technical work item display (Goto->Technical work item
display), select Edit->Change and you should have the Delete logically
button available if the work item can be cancelled.

Hope this helps,
Mikko

Sharath,

I think it is a "Best Practice" to logically delete (i.e. Cancel) work
items instead of deleting them as transaction SWWL does. You might want to
write a program using function SAP_WAPI_ADM_WORKFLOW_CANCEL for this
purpose. I believe the ability to cancel work items was available from
transaction SWIA prior to R/3 4.7 (Enterprise), but it is no longer there;
at least not for me. I have been using my own program that calls the WAPI
since it has been available.

Good luck!
