Stephen, 
 
You should only use WF_EXTSRV for web applications that are external -
i.e. that do NOT use standard SAP application techniques.
For SAP application techniques such as BSP and WebDynpro stick with
transaction SWFVISU.

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

	Thanks Jocelyn.
	
	I will definitely try that out. But now we have a little more
trouble, we
	actually have to implement this whole thing in Enterprise
portal. So if I
	make a call transaction to CBIH82 in my task I can only provide
ITS based 
	screen to the user from UWL.
	
	
	
	Or is there a JavaWebDynpro Application or something which can
be used for
	Approval?
	
	
	
	As there is no direct option for workflows in R/3 I don't think
it will be 
	available in portal also but still wanted to confirm whether
there are any
	better ways to achieve this in portal.
	
	
	
	Thanks & Regards,
	
	Prasath N

	Hi All,
	
	How do i call a Java WebDynPro Application from my task?
	
	For exampla in PCR worklfows we have the Application -
ISRFORMAPPROVE. This 
	was a standard Application from SAP. All i did was i entered the
	visualization parameters (Application and Package) for this
application in
	SWFVISU and used task TS50000075 in my workflow.
	
	But i am not clear how my workflow calls this application in
portal UWL. I 
	went through the method EXTSRV-PROCESS in TS50000075. All i
could understand
	was the method reads the header details of the current workitem
and builds a
	URL (Fn.Mod : SWK_BUILD_LH_URL) and launches it in the browser(
Fn.Mod:
	CALL_BROWSER).
	
	1. Now assume i build a custom JavaWebDynpro Application with
say Approve
	and Reject buttons. Now how do i call this Application from my
task?(that is
	what if i want to call a custom application using a custom task
from UWL?) 
	
	2. What is the use of setting the visualization parameters in
SWFVISU?
	
	3. Also i am not clear how are the parameters getting passed to
and from
	from these application to R/3.
	
	Can some one help me out? 
	
	Thanks,
	Prasath N

	Dear Dart,
	
	Unfortunately it does not work also for new once I've created in
ECC6 :(.
	I've also suffer from synchronization.
	
	OSS is currently working on that - once the'll conclude thier
checking I'll update SAP-WUG.

	There's a conversion program for old containers on ECC6 - it's
in
	Workflow Administration menu in the SAP Easy access view.
	You might need to run that first to sort out your containers for

	upgrading workflows/tasks/work items.

	Subject: Step binding simply does not work
	
	
	Hello all,
	
	I've read previous messages regarding the problems with upgrade
from
	4.6C to ECC6.
	This is mine: I've defined workflow container element (say DLI)
and
	assigned it initial value.
	The first step is an activity step for background task I've
created.
	This task also has container element DLI (same type off-course)
and 
	within the step binding the value should pass from the workflow
	container to the task container.
	Unfortunately, in runtime, DLI of task container is <Not Set>
which
	means the binding fails.
	We're currently with basis package level 0009. 
	With 4.6C I never had this problem nor with ECC5 or ECC6 with
basis
	package level 10.
	
	I've tried notes:
	
	*    956448 - Extend buffer concept...
	*    969389 - Container editor loses default values in PFTS
(good one 
	but for another bug).
	*    972806 - Container are not saved
	
	Any ideas ?
