WF Error - Method cannot be executed

Hi Sue,
if this is true:
- When we run it via SWO1, the email gets sent with the PDF attached.
- When my ABAPer executes the FM in a background job, it sends the email with
the PDF attached.
then a "COMMIT WORK" (evtl. with "AND WAIT", evtl. w/ a before statement "SET
UPDATE TASK LOCAL") seems
to be missing near after the step of creating the attachment.
Regards, Joerg
