Issue while posting the invoice in background using the WF-BATCHuser

[Mike Pokraka]

Hi Margaret,

When you say:
"I might be way off base but I seem to recall that immediate processing of
the next step might cary over the prior user's id."
you are only slightly off target.

Scroll all the way to the right of the log and you'll see a column 'User
Context'. This is new as of 620 or thereabouts and will show you the
userid the transaction is working under.

To put it simply, if the next task is dialog it will be *created* under
your user (but placed in the next recipient's inbox); if it's background
it will show the log as you pointed out but the context will be WF-BATCH.

Cheers,
Mike
