WF Error - Method cannot be executed

Hi Sue,
My guess it has to do with wf-batch user type and the FM you use inside
your function, maybe the device your using to simulate the SSF print.
I'd suggest setting endless while inside the method, run the workflow and
then through SM51 debug the session. This way you can see EXACTLY what
happens. I can assure this has to work, I did that several times.

Good luck.
