SAP-WUG Digest, Vol 30, Issue 80

Fri May 25 10:37:11 EDT 2007

Hi All,

I also have few more question along with Prasath N "How do i call a Java
WebDynPro Application from my task?"

When i went thru the code of object- EXTSRV method PROCESS, it reads an
entry from the table SWKHANDT. I am unable to get an entry into this table.
I used tcode WF_HANDCUST but that put an entry in table SWLWPHANDT.

I would also like to know what will be the UI, when the work item is
executed from the SAP INBOX. I Understand that from the portal it would call
a BSP/Web dynpro base on the task specific visualization.

Especially i like to know how data binding happens between the adobe form
and the WF container. I am currently developing this workflow, If not for
prasanth i would have posted this by today.

Any Help guys, I know the best of the WF guys are in this group.

-Stephen
