terminating event on a synchronous task?

Wed Aug 29 18:02:36 EDT 2007

Eh? I'm taken aback!

What does one use for simple notification workitems (just text, no business
objects to view), if not the trusty ol' SELFITEM.DISPLAY?

Are you perhaps suggesting that a task based on method ZMYOBJECT.DISPLAY
should be used?
What is the best practice.

We're on Basis 620.

thanks,
Paul B

Ok, Paul we'll pass over the nasty approach of using SELFITEM.DISPLAY in
the first place...

Check your ZMYOBJECT instance exists in the work item container.
You would need to bind the ZMYOBJECT instance from the workflow to the
task and then create your terminating event based on the ZMYOBJECT
instance in the container.  You shouldn't need to play with the event
binding at all.

Subject: terminating event on a synchronous task?

Hello!

I have set up a terminating event on a _synchronous_ task, but it is not
working.
I assume that this is allowed?
I suspect the problem may be that the tasks's object is not the same as
the
terminating event's object.

The task is based on the method SELFITEM.DISPLAY (it's just a
notification
step)

The terminating event is based on the event ZMYOBJECT.COMPLETED.

When I created the terminating event for the task, I made the following
(automatic) binding:

&EVT_OBJECT&  -> &EVT_OBJECT&   (which are both based on ZMYOBJECT).

When I check SWEINST (Instance Linkages), I can see that an entry has
been
made for
ZMYOBJECT.COMPLETED-> WORKITEM, and it is active, but no instance values
are stored underneath it (in Object Data) when I create a workflow
instance.

The raising of the event ZMYOBJECT.COMPLETED has no effect.
SWEL says: 'No receiver entered'

What am I missing here? Or am I attempting the impossible? There must be
some elegant way
to terminate a SELFITEM.DISPLAY step when it has become redundant...

thanks in advance for any tips
Paul Bakker (Brisbane)
