UWL and SRM workflow

Stephane,

 

I believe think link displays default method of the business object.  In previous releases, you could have a business object without default method.  Here, I was unable to get rid of it.  I think method Display is default method for BUS2121.  What you can do, is create a subtype, use delegation and redefine Display method to actually show something.

Hi All, 
 
I hope you are fine
We are using the SRM 5.0 extended scenario with badi workflow, the task shown in the UWL are displaying a link that is 
the business object therefore if we click on the attachment there is nothing shown and the screen displays a blank screen 
This is causing confusion with our users.
The task we are using in the back end are standard from standard workflow
TS10008126 for shopping Cart workflow from WS14000134
TS14007970 for Local Purchase order workflow from WS14000146
 
Of course we can still process the tasks by clicking directly on the title of the mail or on the Launch SAP task button
But apparently the users are really confused ...

Does anybody have a solution for this ?
 
Cheers
Stephane
