regarding triggering events

[Dart, Jocelyn]

Vijay, 

Unless you are in a system *below* 4.6C - *PLEASE* use the WAPIs!  These
are the workflow equivalent of BAPIs.  Using SWE_EVENT_CREATE directly
is like using an internal SAP function module.  Its safer (for
upgradeability, support, etc.) to use the officially endorsed WAPI
routines. 

SAP_WAPI_CREATE_EVENT is the equivalent of SWE_EVENT_CREATE.  Note that
the container is passed as a simple table so you don't need workflow
macros to build it.

Thanks Paul,

Thats about linking the event and the workflow.
How do I link the Submit button in the portal and the event.
Should it be like when I press the submit button,
an RFC is called, which call SWE_EVENT_CREATE to start the event,
which in turn starts the workflow. Thanks in advance,


Regards,
Vijay
