Problem With Binding Somewhere Between BOR Method and Workflow

[Bratzler, Loren]

I was able to answer one of my questions.  I forgot that I could test my task stand-alone using SWUS.  I was able to confirm that the Invoice Amount is not making it back to the Task container.  So it appears there is an issue with the binding between the BOR method and the task container.  But I still have no clue why it is not working for just this one field.

Subject: [EXTERNAL] Problem With Binding Somewhere Between BOR Method and Workflow

I have created a new BOR method where I pass in a requestor user-id and I then get back approvers, approval limits, and an invoice amount.  When I test the method in SWO1, all of my export parameters are being populated correctly:

However, when I test this method in a workflow step, all the fields are being returned to the workflow container except for the Invoice Amount field:

This leads me to believe that there is a binding error somewhere between the BOR method and the workflow.  But I believe that everything is defined correctly.  The Invoice Amount parameter and container fields are all consistently defined as data type RBKP-RMWWR:

I have set up a binding between the task container and the method container and there are no errors in this binding:

The same binding is set up between the workflow container and the task container and this binding too does not have any errors:

The workflow definition activates with no errors as well.

I tried deleting the Invoice Amount field completely from the BOR method, task, and workflow, and then redefining it again fresh and it still does not come across.  I have run SWU_OBUF multiple times to rule out a buffer synchronization issue.

So I am at a loss as to why this one field is not being returned back to the workflow container.  Does anyone have any ideas of what else I can check?  Is there a way that I can tell, when the workflow executes, if the Invoice Amount value is being lost between the method and the task or between the task and the workflow?
