Hello Shai,
there was a presentation of such a solution in the ASUG a few years ago by
Ulrich Mende.
I attach his presentation.
Perhaps this can be useful for you as well.
Kind regards
Viveka

RE: Deadline and calendar
Hi all,
I'm using deadline for latest start: work item created + 3 days. I've
found that the system counts 3 days, without checking any calendar.
Therefore, if task was created on Friday evening, a deadline will appear
in Monday, even though Saturday + Sunday weren't working days.
Is there a way to relate it to SAP calendar ?
Thanks,
Shai E.

Mike,
I am not in the ofc right now, but it was the first exception from the
call to SWW_WI_START.
Bottom line, if I have a terminating event in the task the task should
not be set to completed until this event triggers event if I execute the
task. Yes?
When I call the SWW_WI_START, do I need to add or change any parms for
this to wait for term event?
Before Async changes:
I start the task via SWW_WI_START. I use the Deadline date and action.
This works fine.
I have a method on zbus2032-doSomething. From this method, I call a
program and return. Task gets set to Comppleted status.
Also, if dead line is reached it gets set to completed.
This is expected results.
After Async changes:
Start Task with SWW_WI_START with same Deadline date and action.
Added a zDummy event to zbus2032.
Added the event to the terminating events in the Task.
Changed the method I call in zbus2032 to Async.
Save / complie changes on bus2032 and my task.
The thinking here is that the task shouldn't be set to complete until
the event triggers.
The ESS Time Approval is a singel step task and waits for a term event
to complete. I will look at it Monday and compare.
Thanks!
Rick

Hi Rick,
That should definitively work. The method has to be asynchronous though,
it seems you had some other problem preventing it starting. Can you
clarify "Failed to start"?
Cheers
Mike
