ERP2005: step type Web Activity and Web Dynpro

[Dart, Jocelyn]

Actually you don't need Guided Procedures to call a WebDynpro
application. 
 
You can do that easily enough from transaction SWFVISU, UWL XML
configuration of the launch mechanism for that task, or transaction
WF_EXTSRV.
 
The "web activity" step is to do with WF-XML - and is not relevant to
simply calling a WebDynpro application.

Hi Kjetil,
 
If you're going to make a new workflow by calling a Web Dynpro
application, I think it's better to design in Guided Procedure. The
prerequisite is Netweaver Portal. 
 
It's lot easier to design a Guided Procedure which will give you
possiblility to call any webie program e.g. Webdynpro ABAP, WebDynpro
Java, iView, iView from Visual composer etc.

	My intuition tells me it should be possible to call a Web DynPro
screen from a web activity step - and preferrably even a Web DynPro for
ABAP and not just the Java version.
	 
	However, during my attempt in our sandbox system I have become
quite depressed. I can't even get a simple workflow where the URL is
fixed (http://www.google.com/) working. The single-test of the step
works, but not the workflow.
	 
	When I try to test it fails with error message SWP135 (Unable to
determine work item type for step at node 0000000004). That message
looks just plain stupid in my eyes, I thought I pretty much defined the
step type when I selected the "Web activity" icon, but perhaps there is
something I have missed.
	 
	Our config seems OK, transaction SWU3 shows green lights
everywhere it should matter (definition environment and runtime
environment).
	 
	The OSS search doesn't help me, nothing is returned for
<SWP135>, nothing was returned for <"determine work item type">. When
searching for <determine work item type> a lot of messages about other
items and types were found. So I restricted it to area BC-BMT and got it
reduced to 16 messages, of which zero were relevant when we don't
consider "Analysis for workflow problems" (322526) and other generic
notes relevant.
	 
	I have also tried SWUD with the trace on. Unfortunately, I can't
really say I felt enlightened after looking at the trace.
	 
	Anyone care to help a clueless beginner? Not that I think this
WWW thing is here to stay anyway...
