How to dynamically find the responsible agents..

[Munday,Sherie J.]

Ramki,
Thank you.  That did it.  The ACTOR_CONTAINER holds the responsible
elements.  I was missing that piece.  It is working great now!!
Regards,
Sherie

Sherie,

You only need to pass the ACT_OBJECT & ACTOR_CONTAINER parameters to the

FM. As mentioned by Sue, you would get back the agents in ACTOR_TAB 
table. you can comment out all other parameters. Create the method 
container exactly same as your rule container and you can then possibly 
pass the method container directly to the function module. You would do 
the WF to task binding for the new task same as the rule binding of the 
actual step that uses the rule.

Cheers,
Ramki
