Workflow triggered. but workitem missing

Hi ,
Following is my problem
Workflow is triggered. when displayed workitem from SWI1 , the dialogue workitem status is ready in user's inbox. But the user is unable to see the workitems in his inbox.
Please Note:  The workitem has been farwarded to the user. And the workitem is missing in the inbox. even though it shows ready status in SWI1.
Please help.

Please try following....
1. Single Click on the task .
    From Menu bar select 'GOTO' --> 'Agent Assignment for Task'
    You will find the 'Attribute' button.
    Click on 'Attribute' button.
    Select 'General Task'.
    Now re-trigger the workflow. Hope that workitem will be availabe to users inbox.
2. If u are using 'Expression' to send the workitem to corresponding user. Please add leading 'US' before the user ids.
Thanks
Sanjay

  • Regarding Workflow triggering event.

    Hi,
    Description: I have created a Object type and a event for the same by transaction SWO1, after that i have created a WorkFlow(WF) for which the triggering event is the event i have created in the Object Type. There is a report in which i have used the FM "SWE_EVENT_CREATE" and passed the Object Type, Event Name, Key field values and the creator.
    Problem: When i am executing this report the FM is called and the sy-subrc after call is 0, stating that the call was succesfull, but the WF is not getting triggered when i went to transaction SWI2_FREQ to check this WF is not at all triggered. But when i tested from WF transaction SWDD it is working fine.
    Could anyone please explain me on this. or is there any other way to use an event of a Object Type to trigger WF.
    Thanks and Regards,

  • Agent is determining properly but workitem is not coming in sap inbox.

    Hello Expert,
                            In my workflow agent is determining properly. i have seen from workflow log.
    but the workitem(approval mail) is not coming into agents workflow inbox.the problem is happening in production.
    same workflow is running successfully in development. means workitem is coming in agents workflow inbox.
    i don't have authorization in  T CODES SCOT SO16 so I can check and suggest something.
    I want to ask that is it any config issue or something else.
    is there any other way so i can cross check.
    please help.
    thanks raj.

    Hi Rajib,
    Check in the workflow log in production for the user decision task what error message it displays. If it is stuck due to missing agents, then there is a possibility that you missed to transport the agent assignment for the workflow task. Check if the same was included in the customizing task that is transported.
    Also check if the buffer refresh was done after the changes were imported in the production system using transaction SWU_OBUF.

  • Workflow triggers unwantedly

    Hi All ,
    we are a strange issue in EC incoming Invoice workflow in SRM, descriptiojn is as follows
    we have two workflow in our system for invoice one goes through approval and other auto approval , and on the SRM portal at header level in the basic data we have added two custom fields allow NON-PO invoice and Allow RE ,and implemented the doc_check_badi , now at the line item level if we do not give any PO refernce and check/post  then we get an error message saying the entrer PO and the status of the invoice to " to be corrected manually" ideally in the above case approval  workflow should not trigger , it sould only trigger when we tick the allow Non-po invoice check button , and it was working fine , but suddenly after patch upgrade the approval workflow triggers even if we do not tick the chck box at header level . Can anyone suggest did any thing go wrong in patch upgrade , I have checked all the conditions and linkages all are fine, but i guess some standard setting is missing which would have gone missing .

    Dear all,
             Thanks a lot for reading my post with intention to answer.
             The issue is resolved now.
             The problem was at BAdI.To trigger the workflow with event CREATED for purchase requisition, BAdI named ME_REQ_POSTED needs to be used :
             Following coding is used for the same :
    method IF_EX_ME_REQ_POSTED~POSTED.
      DATA: WA_EBAN TYPE EBAN.
      DATA L_S_EBAN TYPE UEBAN.
      DATA: OBJKEY TYPE SWEINSTCOU-OBJKEY .
      LOOP AT IM_EBAN INTO L_S_EBAN .
      ENDLOOP.
        IF ( SY-TCODE = 'ME51N' AND SY-UCOMM NE 'MECHECKDOC' ) OR SY-TCODE = 'ME52N'  .
          IF  L_S_EBAN-BSART = 'ZNB'.
            OBJKEY = L_S_EBAN-BANFN.
            SELECT SINGLE * FROM EBAN INTO WA_EBAN WHERE BANFN EQ OBJKEY.
            IF SY-SUBRC NE 0.
              CALL FUNCTION 'SAP_WAPI_CREATE_EVENT'
                EXPORTING
                  OBJECT_TYPE             = 'BUS2105'
                  OBJECT_KEY              =  objkey
                  EVENT                   =  'CREATED'
                 COMMIT_WORK             = 'X'
                 EVENT_LANGUAGE          = SY-LANGU
                 LANGUAGE                = SY-LANGU
                 USER                    = SY-UNAME
    *   IFS_XML_CONTAINER       =
    * IMPORTING
    *   RETURN_CODE             =
    *   EVENT_ID                =
    * TABLES
    *   INPUT_CONTAINER         =
    *   MESSAGE_LINES           =
    *   MESSAGE_STRUCT          =
            endif.
          endif.
        endif.
       endmethod.
              I have missed the loop block.That's why the workflow was not triggering.

  • Event geeting triggered but WI doesnt  proceed

    Hi All ,
      In my workflow , I have have a step which waits for the event 'TRIP.CHANGED' . And when the event is occured next step will be executed .
       I have came accross a strange situation wherein  the even is getting triggered but the next step is not executed . The workflow is still in the <b>WAIT</b> state .
       Previously it was working but now its not working .
      What could be the reason ?? Any thoughts ...
    Thanks ,
    Sonu M.

    Hi Sonu,
    You can go to transaction swu0 wherein if you give your business object and the event you can see your particular workflow is linked or not.
    If it is linked that means it will show you a green light if not it will give you a red light.
    If it has a green light it is linked successfuly if not plz chek the bindings.
    Else if this all thing is working you might have done some other changes which hasnt reflected so go to transaction swu_obuf and sycronize it.(it might work)
    I had the same problem in my workflow , but i changed that wait for event condition and did some other check,so now it is working.You can also possibly change that condition and check some other condition.

  • Approval workflow triggers when not expected for SRM PO & without Agent ??

    Hi All,
    We are using SRM 5.0 integrated with SAP MM backends.
    We are frequently facing this problem, when a buyer  creates a PO (in SRM) within his/ her Spending (Output) Limit, the PO approval workflow triggers and is not able to find an agent.
    Although the workflow should not trigger as the PO value is below spend limit of the buyer......we are not able to understand this behaviour.
    In such cases, the buyer is not able to issue the POs, since the POs show 'Awaiting Approval' status.
    I can find such POs with SRM transaction SWI2_ADM1, but I can not do anything beyond that. I am not able to Forward or 'Complete Manually' such work-items.
    Any idea how this problem can be fixed or if there is any SAP note available for same.......anything??
    Has anyone faced this kind of problem before?? Please help.
    Thanks,
    Ruchika

    please check from the workflow log , the workflow which the system is starting.
    might be the system is able to start another workflow than the one which you are mentioning
    use the transaction swi6 for workflow log , use the purchase order guid

    Hi Ruchika,
    This seems to be a problem with the start condition of the PO approval workflow. Check for the same and see if there is any issue.

  • Workflow triggering problems

    Hi all,
    I have a puchase order release workflow ,and have activated the triggering in tcode pftc,but the problem is ,every time I create a purchase order the workflow triggering gets deactivated and have to manually activate it after each Purchase Order creation or change.
    Does anyone have a clue as to what may cause this problem?
    Regards
    MM

    Hi Raja,
    Thank you for your reply.
    I tried changing the method but it still throws the same error. i dont think this error is related to the Task method , since it can also be a dummy method (as is the case with the leave approval workflow 12300111) .
    Any other helpful suggestions ??
    Thanks,

  • Workflow Triggering twice when executing transaction cj21n

    Hi Experts,
    when i am executing transaction cj21n my workflow is triggering twice but earlier  it was working fine ..
    please provide your input on the same
    Thanks
    Deepanker Dwivedi

    Hi,
    The 'event' which  mapped to workflow triggered twice or another event may added to the workflow
    1) Did you give additional event for the workflow in the Basic Data -> Start events, if yes remove that event and test it.
    2) If 'No', In the SPRO configurations some settings might have changed, Check with your Function Consultant ask  any changes they done in the SPRO settings related to the T.code cj21n.

  • Workflow - Error starting workitem from Outlook

    Hi,
    We have an issue in the workflow wherein, the workitem when started from outlook gives an error"Page cannot be displayed" ( like the one we get in a net browser).
    When the same workitem is started from SAP inbox it works fine.
    This one seems to be a compatibility issue between MS and SAP, but we are not sure where.
    Have anyone already faced an error like this? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks and Regards,

    It might be the SapConnect settings that need to be adjusted. There are number of OSS notes that might help:

  • PRs workflow triggered only the first time

    Hi all,
    do you know a way to trigger a workflow for Purchase Reqs only when the first agent (requisitioner) releases it and not at every step? I'm managing all the release strategy inside a custom workflow and the cancel release as well.
    I'm using BUS2105.eventstepcreated as start event but it is triggered in each step (as the name suggests ) and also for a cancel release.
    Thanks in advance.
    Angelo

    Hi Angelo.
    Sorry if I have different perspective.
    You can enhance the standard workflow for PR (single release and collective release). This workflow triggers for each PR created.
    And instead of you manage release strategy inside your workflow, you can maintain release strategy (release group and release code) inside the MM configuration by assign to specific object type. This approach will capture agent assignment from the configuration and calculate the release strategy (include the classification) as well

  • Workflow  triggering actions?

    We defined multiple workflow actions for opportunity sales assistant. These actions share a common business logic (WF template), but they should be processed by different groups depending on the actions. 
    Is there a way for us to find out the triggering action at runtime? so we can direct the workflow to the responsible group. 
    We were able to pass the opportunity business object to the workflow container, but it doesn't contain any information of the triggering action.
    Thanks, Yan

    You can't update another object when one object is updated i.e. Custom Object can't be updated automatically using Workflow when Contact Object is updated. You need to use Web Services to do this. All you have to do is define some Integration Events on the Parent object (which triggers the Update) and then based on the Integration EVent, update the Child Object (which needs to be updated).
    BTW, this is not related to Contact On Demand, it is related to CRM On Demand Topic

  • Mail send issue - Workflow Triggered from Error Message

    hi
    i am learning workflow and doing some practical sessions using tutorials found on the internet. I have successfully enabled a workflow triggering options from the error message. The workflow will simply send an email and there is nothing else in that workflow definition. When i get the error message i open up the error message window and trigger the workflow option which is enabled. I get a message that the workflow has been started but i dont get the email immediately. I see the emails only after a long time. Infact the emails sent yesterday is only visible today.
    i checked in SOST and i dont see the messages at all. If its available in SOST then the system would have picked up and send to the inbox. But i dont see the mails queued in SOST. But if i wait for a day i can see the emails in my inbox. Any idea what is wrong.

    Hi Suresh
    Good on you that you are actually going through the SAP Help and trying the harder but better way unlike many others...your input regarding your problem is also quite well explained....Keep it up!
    Coming to your problem,
    <b>1.>>I see the emails only after a long time. Infact the emails sent yesterday is >>only visible today.</b>
    RSCONN01 is the program that sends email out of SAP, make sure this scheduled to run frequently otherwise you can manually run this from SE/SA38.
    <b>2. i checked in SOST and i dont see the messages at all. If its available in SOST then the system would have picked up and send to the inbox</b>
    When you run SOST make sure you tick all the checkboxes - Waiting, Errors, Sent and Transmitted. If you are on ECC, then these are available on the Send Status tab...
    Good Luck
