Dynamic branches on a fork

Tue Oct 26 12:50:57 EDT 2010

Binding is tricky with dynamic parallel to subflows.  Way to go!

Hi all,

Done. It was a biding problem. Now I1m able to start parallel
processes dynamically.

Thanks for help

Hmmm.   I don't know what to tell
you.  It could be that the element (object) being passed is empty. 
Check the runtime container.  There are several places where this could go
wrong, but I can assure you that if you're on 6.0 dynamic parallel works
consistently.  Press on.

Hi,

Sorry, I missed that: ECC 6.0

It seems that the sub-workflow is not started. The task is
logically deleted.

Zolt,

What version of R/3 are you on?  I remember having difficulty setting up
the dynamic parallel process in an earlier release, like 4.7.   Where
are you having the problem with dynamic parallel?

Hi Ed,

For each line item I have a role, that means I have all the
responsible person to carry out the decission. Of course, I have the custom
object also, because I need several information depending on the settlement
type. 

But I’m not able to create the paralell processes, and I would
like to avoind event creation in a background method (if it’s possible) for
each settlement.

Hi Zolt,

If you want the process to be simultaneous and not sequential then a list of the
settlement objects should be used to drive the dynamic parallel process. 
I use the term object because that is how I would treat each item that is part
of the outboarding process.  I would create a custom object and each item
to be settled would be an instance of that object.  You could then put
enough information in the object's attributes to determine who the approver
should be for that particular object.  Since you already have the custom
table, creating a custom object over it would quite easy.  I don't know
all that is in your customer table, but could you add approver information for
each item?

Ed

BTW, if the process can be or needs to be sequential then just put the list of
objects in a loop.  Sometimes one thing cannot be approved until something
else has been approved.

Hi, Thanks

We have the custom table, but users requirement is to handle all
the approvements in one process. L

Thanks anyway.

Hi
Zolt, 

We had a
similar requirement, and this is what we did. 

All the
different processes were maintained in a custom table. 

An ABAP batch
job was created which will run daily once and trigger different work items for
each suitable process. Business logic was contained in this program. 

Thanks

Hi Koenraad,

Thanks for reply. The workflow is started wia event and I have several
previous step before settlement. Those steps must be carried out within one
workflow. 

You say to start the parallel processes with events. But how can I
determine dynamically the events? 

My tought was to create a task with parallel processing controlled by a
multiline element (number of items)

But any idea is welcome. :)

Zsolt,

Why don't you use events to start various instances of a settlement item
wf?

Regards

Koenraad
