SAP_WAPI_CREATE_EVENT and Workflow binding

Hi Kathy, One of the benefits of using the WAPI is that you are given a simplified structure to work with - which limits the amount of information you need to fill. So yes you just use SWR_CONT if your parameters are straightforward. If you have complex parameters there is the option of using the XML Container interface - but that's for advanced workflow developers.
Regards,
Jocelyn

Jocelyn, Shai:
Thanks for your quick responses. Please bear with me if I'm still a bit
confused. The function module parameters don't include the SWCONT
structure, rather SWR_CONT which is looks very simplified (ELEMENT and
VALUE). I had populated the ELEMENT with my simple container name, and
the value with the key value I wanted to pass.
FUNCTION sap_wapi_create_event.
*"----------------------------------------------------------------------
*"*"Lokale Schnittstelle:
*" IMPORTING
*" VALUE(OBJECT_TYPE) LIKE SWR_STRUCT-OBJECT_TYP
*" VALUE(OBJECT_KEY) LIKE SWR_STRUCT-OBJECT_KEY
*" VALUE(EVENT) LIKE SWR_STRUCT-EVENT
*" VALUE(COMMIT_WORK) LIKE SWR_STRUCT-COMMITFLAG DEFAULT 'X'
*" VALUE(EVENT_LANGUAGE) LIKE SY-LANGU DEFAULT SY-LANGU
*" VALUE(LANGUAGE) TYPE SYLANGU DEFAULT SY-LANGU
*" VALUE(USER) TYPE SYUNAME DEFAULT SY-UNAME
*" VALUE(IFS_XML_CONTAINER) TYPE XSTRING OPTIONAL
*" EXPORTING
*" VALUE(RETURN_CODE) LIKE SY-SUBRC
*" VALUE(EVENT_ID) LIKE SWR_STRUCT-EVENT_ID
*" TABLES
*" INPUT_CONTAINER STRUCTURE SWR_CONT OPTIONAL
*" MESSAGE_LINES STRUCTURE SWR_MESSAG OPTIONAL
*" MESSAGE_STRUCT STRUCTURE SWR_MSTRUC OPTIONAL
*"----------------------------------------------------------------------
Should I be using the two fields in SWR_CONT and populate with all of
the field names in Shai's email below?
Thanks again for your help.
Kathy

Dear Kathy,
To clarify - I wanted you to use SAP_WAPI_READ_CONTAINER on an existing
workflow instance to *** UNDERSTAND *** what you had to put in the event
container for SAP_WAPI_CREATE_EVENT. You still actually have to fill
the parameters for SAP_WAPI_CREATE_EVENT.

Jocelyn

Dear Kathy,
Please make sure to fill all SWCONT structure fields as follows:
* ELEMENT - your element name, use uppercase!
* TAB_INDEX - 00001, 00002, ... if you're transfer a table element
then you should have same index several times.
* ELEMLENGTH - according to the data dictionary.
* TYPE - according to the data dictionary.
* VALUE - your element value.
I assume you did but make sure to append the data to the internal table
you use.
If it's still does not work please copy the source code to txt file and
attach it.
I can assure you that is suppose to work - I've done that several times
and it went well.
Good luck.

Hello Workflow folks,
We are having a similar problem as Srinivas Oota recently posted here.
We are attempting to code an event to kick off a workflow and the
container doesn't seem to be passed to the workflow from the function
call. Originally we just attempted to copy the SAP logic in
LHRTEM00NETF53 to generate the event PDRELA_025.MOVED where approriate,
by copying the code used when PDRELA_025.MOVEREQUESTED is generated,
which uses function SWE_EVENT_CREATE. However when we did this, our
moved event was not being generated, despite the fact that this same
code still works for the moverequested event.
So as Jocelyn suggested, we changed our code to use function
SAP_WAPI_CREATE_EVENT and have populated the container with the data
required by the workflow. The event is now generated, but the values in
the container don't appear to have been passed to the workflow even
though the return code from the function is 0 and the only message
generated by the function call is "Event created - at least one receiver
found". I confirmed the fields were not populated by running
SAP_WAPI_READ_CONTAINER as suggested and found the two container
elements I defined and populated for the event function call are in the
container, but not populated as I would have expected them to be.
Any suggestions on what we might be missing?

Adam,
Please *** DO NOT USE *** internal function modules such as
SWW_WI_ADMIN_CANCEL.
The equivalent Workflow API which is designed for customer use is
SAP_WAPI_ADM_WORKFLOW_CANCEL.
If you don't have the options showing to logically delete the work item
it is probably because you do not have sufficient access to perform this
activity. Put the hard word on your security team to get it. Check
the authorizations assigned to security role SAP_BC_BMT_WFM_ADMIN to see
what you are missing.
Regards,
Jocelyn

Not really sure what the logically delete is, I use report RSWWWIDE to
delete workitems.

I have tried this it does not give me options under services
available to Administrator. I have tried some other Work item ids not in
this workflow and I do get option of deleting logically in the services
available to administrator. I do not have authorization for SWO1 and
SE37 in the production. I am thinking of writing a small program to use
function SWW_WI_ADMIN_CANCEL in it! Any other sugestions will be
appreciated.
Thanks every one for quick replies

In SWIA:
1. Double click the workitem
2. In the first screen go to Menu - GOTO - TECHNICAL WORKITEM
DISPLAY
3. In the technical workitem display screen go to EDIT - CHANGE
4. You should now see your options to the left to include
logically delete.

Hi Adam,
Please use transaction SWWL_TOPLEVEL rather than SWWL - the toplevel
version is safer as it helps to prevent orphaned work items.
Also check your authorizations for authorization object S_WF_WI which
controls the activities you can perform against a work item.
Regards,
Jocelyn

Hi adam,
You can logically delete the workflow by using transaction SWWL.... you
have to enter the work item id (not the workflow instance number).
Delete the workitem and then you can logically delete the workflow using
workflow instance number. But remember the sequence, First, Workitem and
then WOrkflow Instace.
Hope it will solve your query.
Regards,
Himanshu Verma.

Adam,
It sounds like authorization, but if you can get to SWO1 and
instantiate the business object WORKITEM using the work item id of the
main workflow, the method status_change will give you the option to set
the status to CANCELLED which is the same as logically deleted.
Thanks,
Bill

Hi,
I want to delete logically a workflow in error status.
When I go to the log, click on Work item Id, and go through menu ->
Edit-> Change. I don't see an option available under services for
administrator to delete logically. Attached is a print out and we are on
ECC 6.0
Any idea on how to delete logically will be highly
appreciated.
Thanks
Adam
