Access to workitem data within FORM step

[Dart, Jocelyn]

Hi Andrew, 
 
That's part of "the way things are" - form steps communicate directly
with the workflow container.  A form step does not have a work item
container. 
Its one of the special features of form steps.

Subject: Access to workitem data within FORM step


Hi,
 
In the 'Practical Workflow for SAP' bible, page 349 dicusses the use of
simple forms with a 'form' step.  It advises generating a single dynpro
and then using a PBO module to alter the screen depending on the
context. 
 
I have a form that I wish to present to different users at different
points in the workflow, but I cannot work out how to access the workitem
that called the form (e.g. to get the Task ID).  I've looked at the PBO
and PAI modules that are generated with the screen, but these just seem
to access the workflow container rather than the workitem's. 
 
Does anyone know how I can differentiate the context of one call to the
form from another within the PBO of the screen?
 
Thanks,
 
Andrew
