Intergrating Workflow with SAP Web-Dynpro

If you search in the SAP Service marketplace you should find a cookbook
for the UWL which explains how to do this sort of thing. I have used the
following approach to call an iView, a similar approach should work for
Web Dynpro:

- Create a dummy object method which just pops a dialog telling you to
use the universal worklist, and raise exit cancelled (just in case
anyone executes it in SAPGUI)
- Create a task to call the method
- Put an entry in transaction SWFVISU to link the task and the iview 
- Get your portals person to do the mapping for the UWL (this reads
SWFVISU)
- when the iview is called it automatically has the workitemid, so I
wrote a function module to retrieve the data from the container using
WAPI function modules
- When the user is ready to make a decision they click a button which
calls a function module to update the container and then complete the
workitem using WAPI calls.

Subject: Intergrating Workflow with SAP Web-Dynpro

Hi

I have recently had to develop several custom Web Transactions due to
the fact that the Workitems had to be executed from the SAP Portal Inbox
and executing standard SAP Transactions on the WEB was a NO-NO and also
the user decision task does not work to well on the portal.
We also had a SAP Web-Dynpro developer on the Project that created
custom 
i-views on ESS/MSS which triggered my workflows. There were a lot of
duplication between the Web-Dynpro and Web Transactions I developed
catering for changes. 

Is it possible call a Web-Dynpro Transaction from a Workitem
passing/receiving variables?

You assistance would be must appreciated.
