Triggering Events for HR

[Sue Doughty]

Hi Lynne,

 

This might not be the best way to handle this, but here goes.  

 

I have a workflow for Applicants/Applications where sometimes multiple
workflows will get started.  The first step in that workflow is a method
I created that calls SAP_WAPI_WORKITEMS_TO_OBJECT.  I pass in the
current Work item ID and look for all active work items for the business
object with the object key.  In the method I loop through all the ones
it finds and if the Work Item ID sent into the method does not match
what it found, then I consider it a duplicate workflow and send out a
flag from the method.  If the flag = y, I do a process control step to
cancel the current workflow in the next step.

Subject: Triggering Events for HR

 


This is a very basic question.... 
    When creating a recurring payment in HR, an SAP event of CREATED
(object recurrpay)  is raised for each different wage type used for an
employee. 
    For instance, if there are 3 wage types, 3 events are raised for the
SAME employee.  After the creation of the payment and the save key is
hit the event kicks off, so for each payment for the same employee we
are getting 3 events. We do not want to start the WF 3x. 
 We want to start a workflow ONE time, as long as one payment exists
start the workflow, from there it does not matter how many payments are
entered.  Any thoughts on how this can be done without started the
workflow for each time?
