Hi
You get the Completed instance also if you select the SELECTION_STATUS_VARIANT as 0000. By default it is 0001.
Thanks

Thanks for all the responses to my question. They are very helpful and
gives me an idea of what I can try.
The FM SAP_WAPI_WORKITEMS_TO_OBJECT does seem to be a good solution since
I am not raising my own event and using an SAP
supplied event. One question I have does this only bring back the active
workitems?

RE: Triggering Events for HR
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?

Lynne,
Yes. Below is the code that I use in my method and I get only active
workflows. Make sure that you loop the worklist[] and exclude the
current workflow ID when looking for duplicates.
SWC_GET_ELEMENT CONTAINER 'CURRENTWIID' CURRENTWIID.
SWC_GET_ELEMENT CONTAINER 'WFTASKID' WFTASKID. (Current Workflow
Name - WS########)
I_OBJTYPE = 'APPLICANT'.
I_OBJKEY = OBJECT-KEY-APPLICANTNUMBER.
call function 'SAP_WAPI_WORKITEMS_TO_OBJECT'
EXPORTING
objtype = I_OBJTYPE
objkey = I_OBJKEY
top_level_items = 'X'
selection_status_variant = '0001'
output_only_top_level = 'X'
TABLES
worklist = worklist[].
ACTIVE_WF_FOUND = 'N'.
IF worklist[] IS INITIAL.
ELSE.
LOOP AT WORKLIST.
IF WORKLIST-WI_ID = CURRENTWIID.
ACTIVE_WF_FOUND = 'N'.
else.
IF WORKLIST-WI_RH_TASK EQ WFTASKID.
ACTIVE_WF_FOUND = 'Y'.
DUPLICATEWIID = WORKLIST-WI_ID.
DUPLICATETASKID = WORKLIST-WI_RH_TASK.
EXIT.
endif.
endif.
ENDLOOP.
