EEC6 Requested Start & Resubmission

[Sample, Rick]

Forgot to include the Help file text.
The language seems clear to me! Do not start the task until xx:xx:xx.
Period! Do not put in Business Workplace until the requested start and
not available.
 
 
 
 
requested start (BC-BMT-WFM) 	

SAP Business Workflow (BC-BMT-WFM)


Earliest time at which the work item can be executed.

A dialog work item appears in the Business Workplaces of its recipients
when the requested start is reached if the work item is already
available for processing.

If the dialog work item is not created until after the requested start,
it appears immediately in the Business Workplaces of its recipients.

With background work items, execution starts when the requested start is
reached at the earliest.

Hi all,

Something has just brought to my attention and was never aware of the
functionality!
 
We have tasks that have "Requested Start" deadlines. 
Task starts and goes into wait. 
But, users can just go into SBWP, in the Resubmission folder, end
resubmission, and execute the tasks! This a bug? 
I do not want user executing task until the deadline! 
 
I DO NOT recall this working this way in 4.6c. 
 
Below is the help text from the task builder for "Requested Start"
describing how it functionality and 
I see nothing in the help files that indicate it can be picked up from
the Resubmission folder and 
executed BEFORE the start date. 
 
>How Does the Requested Start Work?
>If the requested start for a dialog work item is reached, the work item
is placed in the Workflow Inboxes of the recipients.
>If the requested start for a background is reached, the workflow system
starts automatically with the execution of the work item.
>Whether the requested start has been reached is checked by the
background job for missed deadline that is run periodically.
