Manually Activate/Deactivate WF Event Linkage in Non Modifiable System (e.g. Production) without a transport

Fri Sep 9 08:45:20 EDT 2011

Hi Jocelyn,

In our ECC 6.0 SAP_BASIS Release 700 in a non-modifiable Production client,
I can use PFTC - tab Triggering events, then I can click on the gray
diamond which turns to a green square and the event linkage is activated,
or I can click on the green square which turns to a gray diamond and the
event linkage is deactivated.  Also in our ECC 6.0 SAP_BASIS Release 700 in
a non-modifiable Production client, I can use SWU0 to deactivate/activate
the event linkage.

But in our Enhancement Pack 5 upgrade which is ECC 6.0 SAP_BASIS Release
702 in a non-modifiable client, when I try to use PFTC or SWU0 to
deactivate/activate the event linkage, I instead get a pop-up "Client 110
has status 'not modifiable' ", and the event linkage is not changed.

Thank you very much.

Hi Sheldon,
How are you trying to deactivate/activate the event linkage?

SWU0 often is the best bet here when other transactions block you.

Cheers,
Jocelyn

Hey Jeff,

Good to hear from you.  I am doing well, thank you.  I hope all is well for
you.

I remember in R/3 4.6C we could not activate/deactivate the Event Linkage
in Production, so we created/transported the custom Tranx to make the
changes.

But then we upgraded to ECC 6.0 Release 700, and we found we could
activate/deactivate the Event Linkage in Production from the WF triggering
events (maybe this was an error, and Release 700 should not have had this
ability).

Now we have upgraded to ECC 6.0 Release 702, and again we lost the ability
to activate/deactivate the Event Linkage in Production.
Is there some Basis config/setting that controls this?  Or we may need
again to use the custom Tranx to make the changes?

Thank you.

Hey Sox,

   How are you doing? Did Basis change the settings on you? Do you
have any Auth to modify through SWE2? Do you have Auth to execute
an FM. If so use SWE_EVENT_REC_TYPE_DISABLE(ENABLE). When at a
Client site if I think they may be needing this changed I create
a custom Tranx to execute these 2 FM's for PROD.

Sheldon,

If you go to the Additional Data for the workflow template and
select Agent Assignment>Maintain and select Attributes, along with
General Task, etc. you will see a check box at the bottom "Locked
for Instantiation."

That will prevent the workflow from starting.  Same effect as
turning off the event linkage, right?
