Event Type Linkages - No receiver type

We had an issue in our production server where users's were getting the "ambiguous workflow" error.  We found the culprit to be an additional entry in the Event Type Linkages (SWE2) that had NO recever type.  After we opened up the client, and removed the entry, the error went away.
I know it's possible to enter a new entry in this table despite the erorr requiring the receiver type.  However, since this is a production box, access to data is extremely locked down, and there is not a way to directly modify this transaction. 
Any ideas how this additional entry could have appeared?

Hi Rick!
Did you guys move any workflows from test/quality system to the production system? Usually, when we create starting events in workflows (using SWDD or PFTC), Event type linkages gets a new record and a transport gets created for the same. So it may have happened that a transport could have moved to Production with those changes.
Hope this helps. Let me know if you have any clarifications.
Regards,
Anwar.

  • Receiver Type Function Module in SWE2 use of export parameter.

    i am trying to understand the underlying concept in following things:(neednot to say i have searched alot and read sap documentation already).
    In event type linkage table say i have an entry for BOR -> AFVC_PM.
    As per sap Documentation says all these FM will trigger in following way.
    1 Check Function Module (to place any validations/checks)
    2 Receiver Type Function Module ()
    3 Receiver Function Module.
    Thats fine.
    This is what documentation says about Receiver Type FM(2nd FM) not Receiver FM(3rd FM).
    This FM has 1 export paramter
    Export parameters
    RECTYPE type SWETYPECOU-RECTYPE Receiver type( Result of the evaluation by the receiver type function module.)
    if i am understanding this right, in this FM receiver type will be decided .
    i have placed BREAK-POINT in this FM  and passing value WS90000024 (Workflow with simple mail step) in export parameter RECTYPE.
    after everything executed successfully why i can't see that mail in my inbox.
    Please correct me if i had misunderstood the concept .

    ok,indeed i was missing this thing.
    i got the mails in inbox.
    but why i can't see this value WS90000024 of this workflow ()which is going to be triggered ) in parameter RECTYPE.(its empty).
    it is empty after the receiver type function module execution is complete.
    below is workflow template,

  • Event  type linkage through SWETYPV

    Hi All,
           I have query, in the event type linkage (SWETYPV), if the receiver type is other than the standard task or the workflow template, then how it can be used? Like in one of the standard settings
    Object Type: BUS2005 ,Event: DELETED, Receiver Type: SUBSCRIBE, ..
    I wanted to know how this Receiver type(SUBSCRIBE) is linked with the event and the sub sequent receiver function module. Please help.
    Regards
    PSB

    the object key will be passed through receiver function module via parameter OBJKEY on IMPORTING.
    function sgossub_rec_fb_send_mail.
    *"*"Lokale Schnittstelle:
    *"  IMPORTING
    *"     VALUE(EVENT) LIKE  SWETYPECOU-EVENT
    *"     VALUE(RECTYPE) LIKE  SWETYPECOU-RECTYPE
    *"     VALUE(OBJTYPE) LIKE  SWETYPECOU-OBJTYPE
    *"     VALUE(OBJKEY) LIKE  SWEINSTCOU-OBJKEY
    *"     VALUE(EXCEPTIONS_ALLOWED) LIKE  SWEFLAGS-EXC_OK DEFAULT SPACE
    If the receiver type is a workflow or task, receiver functional module SWW_WI_CREATE_VIA_EVENT_IBF will use that receiver type as a workflow or task to trigger.
    For SUBSCRIBE receiver type, receiver type is just a text. Actually you can put anything there

  • Event Type Linkages: Status "1 errors"

    Hi,
    we got an error in Event type linkages. One event type is on error and it can't be manually switched back to "No errors" because it's not modifiable.
    The error occurs all of the sudden, the workflow could be triggered properly before.
    Did anyone got an idea of what I can do?
    The BOR type and event seems to be okay. The workflow too. Only the event background job wasn't running, but I restarted him.
    Anyway I got this error.
    Thank you in advance!

    Hi,
    with event job, you mean the event queue? this job isn't used that much anymore only in specific cases does it serve a purpose.
    What you can do is go to transaction SWEQADM to see which events are in error, also check there who the workflow administrator is. This person/position/whatever should've received a message about the event being stopped.
    To fix it you could activate the event-->wf linkage in a transport and import that in production, or in severe cases ask basis / authorization to open the production client for changesand reactivate the linkage. But only do that when you have found out the cause.
    There is probably a valid reason why you want to stop the workflow whenever an error occurs in the event.
    Kind regards, Rob Dielemans

  • Event type linkages

    hi gurus ,
    been contemplating with event type linkages(SWETYPV).I'll be using this in connection with IDOC.
    Basically my requirement is to have a custom outbound IDOC and will be trigger upon creation/updates of sales order.
    My question is how does the event type linkages works?where would I populate the table?what is the role of receiver/check FM in event type linkages.
    Please help.

    Hi,
    Hope you have opened another thread for this?
    Event Type Linkages are created through SWE2 and will be populating in SWETYPECOU, SWETYPEENA tables.
    Receiver is something which handles when an event occurs. Example when and IDOC ends in an error there should be someone to process this or some should be intimated. The receiver decides on who has to be intimated. Check Function Module are used to trigger based on condition. You define the procedure or do your check to see if the receiver has to be started if yes then set subrc as 0 else 4. So when 4 the receiver will not be triggered.

  • Event Type linkage and settings of Event Administration Queue

    Hi friends,
        I have a scenario where there is an event linkage activated for a business object event, when i have checked the details of this type linkage then i found that
    1 -  ENABLE EVENT QUEUE check box is not clicked.
    2 -  BehaviorUpon Error Feedbak was set as System presetting.....
    And In Event Administration Queue>BasicData>ReceiverErrorFeedback = DeactivationOfLinkage
    So here my doubt is will the System deactivate the linkage if any error ll occur even if
    ENABLE EVENT QUEUE check box is not clicked ?
    Thanks Dev

  • Business objects and event type linkages...

    Hi Experts,
    Im a bit confused with business objects (swo1) and event type linkages(swetypv). Ive learned that business objects are used to trigger events and so how does event type linkages related to business object? Do I need to create business object or should I just search/look for the appropriate object needed?Please kindly explain to me the process or steps in using business object and event type linkages in related with idocs.

    Hi,
    Business objects neednot have to be created if your are fine with the standard method they have used in or the events yre available for you. If you need to cusomize it then you have to copy it to a subtype. Then do your modifications in it. Event type linkages are used to say which event is active for a Workflow. And if you want to trigger a Workflow based on certain conditions then you have to use either this or Start of Condition. The Error handling of workflow is also handled by Event Type Linkage. So whenvever you create a event linkage for a workflow you get an entry in Event Type Linkage.
    Hope this would have thrown some light on you.
    Thanks,
    Prashanth

  • Managing event type linkages

    Hi, folks! I need your experience for a moment.
    Could you tell me how could I know if a particular event type linkage of any business object type (say BUS2032) is activated or not in run-time, thru abap code?
    Hope it was clear enough.
    Thank you very much, people!

    Little note: the option I am talking about and I want to handle, we can find it in the transaction SWETYPV.

  • Event type linkage automatically deactivated - Urgent help

    Hi,
    I activated the Event type linkage for a PR approval Workflow template (a copy of WS00000038) using t-code SWETYPV, however the Event type linkage got automatically deactivated by the system. I have try to activate again for few times, same thing happen got deactivate automatically, any one have encounter this problem before, please help - Urgent.
    thanks.

    Hi ,
    The mandatory Import parameter might be missing in event container. Event will be deactivated automatically because of these type of errors .
    Please check if you are passing all mandatory import parameters.
    Pls let me know if it worked.

  • Type Linkage Active in Workflow

    Hi guys,
    When the Type Linkage Active column in SWETYPV is not checked, what does it mean?
    What does that column represents?
    Thanks!

    Hi Mark,
    The Transaction SWETYPV is used to link the workflow to the event...
    This transaction is very sensitive.. If by mistake if any changes happens then might be workflow get struck and its very difficult to rectify the problem

  • Training and Event Management - 2 Specify Attendance Types

    Hi
    Is it possible to assign 1 attendance types to each course type or an specific event.
    For example:
    There is a course that generates payed attendance and another course that generates non payed attendance. So to discriminate for the payroll we need to assign 2 different attendance type for each course type or for an specific event.
    Is this possible? Please answer us asap.
    Kind Regards,

    As far as i know,  settings for individual business events are made when you define the at BEtype of which there is none of the settings you require. One solution could be to remove time management integration for the ones that are unpaid and maintain them as unpaid absences:training. Hope someone else provides you with a more helpful response.

  • "iCal got an error: Can't Make id of event of calendar 4 into type referen

    Hello everyone. i am completely new to MAC's and very new to scripting. Thanks in advance for any help.
    I am tying to run an Apple Script that is called Scheduled Delivery.
    I'm running 10.4.10 and have the most recent version of the script.
    Basically what happens is I type up and email, add in the email address and save it to my drafts folder. The Scheduled Deliver script, when run, finds all the emails in my drafts folder and uses iCal to schedule a time to mail them (which is a specific time I enter)
    Here is my process I go through-
    I run the apple script by double clicking on the Scheduled deliver Icon, which was in my appications/MailScript folder. It brings up a new window with all my saved drafts. I select the draft I want to schedule a specific time to deliver. This is great.
    When I click on the lower right button "Update Schedule" I get an error message...
    "iCal got an error: Can't Make id of event of calendar 4 into type reference. (-1700)"
    I cannot figure this out. I've tried testing it anyway. I can close the Scheduled Deliver window but the "Done" button is always grey out. It seems to place an event in iCal but no message ever gets sent.
    Any help is greatly appreciated.
    Thanks

  • Receiver type error in EDI_AGREE_PARTNER_INSERT

    Hello all,
    I'm using EDI_AGREE_PARTNER_INSERT to add entries to EDPP1.  The parameters I am passing are as follows:
    MANDT =
    PARNUM =                        200002
    PARTYP    =                     KU
    CLASS=
    MATLVL=                         A

    USRKEY=
    USRLNG=                         E
    Upon execution, I'm getting an error 426 - "Please enter a valid value for the receiver type."
    Through my own investigation, I've deciphered this error message to mean that the receiver type I have provided is invalid.  I believe that the message is in reference to the value in the USRTYP field. 
    Can anyone offer any additional insight, and maybe some tips about how to fix this?
    I'm relatively new at this.
    Thanks,
    Jarrod

    Hi,
         The error message is raised as there is no combination of USRTYP and USRKEY.
         Check the below "PERFORM FAF_USER_CHECK ... " in the FM EDI_AGREE_PARTNER_INSERT .
         USRTYP and USRKEY are passed to the FM RH_CHECK_ORG_OBJECT_EXISTS to check if the object exists.
         Pass USRKEY as well .

    Define a settlement cost element for receiver type FXA
    Message no. KD506
    Diagnosis
    In allocation structure A1 (controlling area AFCO), you did not define which cost element should be used when settling costs/revenues of the sender. Nor did you define receiver type FXA.
    Procedure
    Assign a different allocation structure to the settlement sender (-> Master data -> Settlement rule -> Goto -> Settlement parameters), or maintain allocation structure A1.
    Thanks

    Hi Supriya,
    Go to SPRO-> Controlling > Internal orders>Actual postings>Settlement> Maintain Allocation structures & choose A1 and go to assignment, select the relevant category like raw material / consumption and then go to source, check the range of cost elements first then click the settlement cos t element and under that choose FXA and define the settlement cost element which must be created under 22 category.
    After maintainig the above, you will not get the error anymore.
