Forgot about CL_GUID_SERVICES .... agree that's better than any function  module.

Yes you will either need a Z-table to map the GUID to your key, or else
you can extend/enhance your table to add a field for your GUID.
Use class CL_GUID_SERVICES to generate them.

If you have time for a bit of a learning curve, you can also look at
persistent classes (my preferred approach in most cases). You never need
to touch GUIDs, the persistent class provides a DB abstraction layer that
handles all DB interaction & GUID generation etc. Integrating them into a
WF class is also very simple and brings a few other benefits too.

Cheers,
Mike
