Dequeue Work Item

[Sandy]

Hi Florin.
Many thanks for your prompt reply (always :p )
Since you're the one who replied my e-mail, I have to tell you that this
still related with issue in my terminating event.
Try to use alternative solution.
I thought that was a good solution by using Export-Import to memory.
In my case once user clicked button on ABAP program, this program should
send value to workflow task and tell workflow to continue the process. Again
the best way to solve this issue is via terminating event or wait step.

But any way, your e-mail gave me a light.
Instead of using call transaction, I will call function module in my method.
my ABAP program should be as a function module where its export parameter is
value associate with button in ABAP program.
Export parameter will be receive within my method and pass it back to task
container for further process.
