instantiate an object and attach it to a workflow? - FICA

[Mark Pyc]

G'day Paul,

You're on the right path. I don't seem to have an object type of CA_DOC in
my ECC system so I can't comment on specifics.

Have you tried just testing the SYSTEM method from SWO1?? If you've got the
key right you should be get an object link back that you can double click
into to confirm that it's worked happily.

Good luck,
Mark
