very basic question

[Vinod Viswanathan]

Hi Björn,
 
You are right!  workflow customizing (SWU3) is one time activity per client/environment.
 
Prefix number is just like creating a custom program name that is prefixed with 'Z' or 'Y'.
 
Similarly whenever a workflow is to be copied for customization... a prefix number is given... (since workflow id is a number). 
 
The prefix number should be 9... so your customized workflow would start with '9' ... generally 3 prefix digits are required.

Therefore you could give 999, 906, 901 etc... as u may wish!
 
 It is suggested that the prefix numbers remain constant irrespective of the client or the environment.
 
I hope this answers your query. 
 
Regds,

Hi everyone,
 
I know this is a very basic question, I just need some 'approval' on what I'm doing : 
Today, I'm starting on a new project, and there are no workflows active, so I assume I have to execute the SWU3 (automatic workflow customizing). I'm just wondering if this could generate any errors.
I've read the blog 'workflow for dummies', and Sapna tells to create a new prefix number. Why is this (I don 't doubt that we have to do it, I'm just curious why) and can cause this any errors ?
Concerning the teched, It's time that you guys come to Belgium, so I can attend one of your sessions :)
