Can we debug a workflow

Hi All,
I wish to know can we debug a workflow. If yes then how?
Also if i want to know how the flow is going for the business process in question. I mean if it is stuck some where, then what is the way for it?
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Neha

Hi Neha,
Yes you can debug the WF to check the LOG in terms of Graphical Display and Technical details..!!
Use the following transaction:-
1> SWE4/SWELS -> EVENT TRACE ON/OFF (Switch On the Event Trace)
2> SWEL -> DISPLAY EVENT TRACE
3> SWUD -> WF DIAGNOSTICS
4> SWPR -> WORKFLOW RESTART AFTER ERROR
Enter the WF Number and Click on the LOG Icon.
There you can see the Graphical Log of the WF to know where the WF is stuck.
And You can also check the Technical Details of the WF there, to find which WF Container has what value.
Let me know if you need any help on this.

Kanika

How can we Debug the workflow?

Hi,
How can we debug the workflow?
Please help me on debugging the workflow in step by step procedure?
Early reply is highely appriciable.
Regards,
Chow.

Hi,
If you want to set breakpoints in method which is used in workflow task then it is possible
till ECC5 am afraid about ECC6
you can see the graphical view of workflow through transactions said by Kalpesh
you can also use swwl (delete workflow) for viewing the container elements of the workflow.
SWI2_ADM1:Workitem without agents
SWI2_DIAG:Workflow with error
these transactions are also helpful

Can we debug the Workflow ?

Hi All,
I have created a method in the BO, it is working fine when i tested that BO. then i call that method in an activity step with required parameters, but that didnot work.
Then i tested that Task that i used in that Activity step using SWUD transaction, that task is also working fine. It is giving the desired output. Then i checked the binding of the workflow, it seems to be fine, but still i created it again, but still when i am executing workflow, values are not coming into Workflow container.
Is there any way to debug the workflow ?
how can i know that where is the issue ?
Regards,
Raman.

Check the binding between event and workflow container...
Regarding the debugging..please search the forum...
Already discussed in lot of threads..

How to debug the workflow

dear friends,
please tell me how to debug the workflow, if you have time then you just see the workflow WS99900212 . in this i have done Leave Approver Notification . but i want to debug on that how to flow step by step .
please you tell me on same workflow , where i am going to take breakpoint.
Thanks in Advance for help.
Cheers.

You can try first of all to enable more logging. (I assume you are running release ERP 2005 since you are not saying what your release is.)
In the workflow builder, select menu item "Goto", "Basic data"
Select the "Version-dependent (current workflow version)" tab
Select the "Control" tab within the version-dependent subscreen
Select the "Performance optimization" tab within the control subscreen
Change the "Settings" drop-down value to "No restrictions on logging".
That will give you much more information in the workflow log. The description of this choice says "All the messages are logged. All runtime operations can be traced." As also noted: don't keep this setting in a production system.

How to trace/debug main workflow calling sub workflow.

Guys,
I am calling Sub workflow from MAIN workflow.
I am able to trace till beginning of sub workflow, with the help of workflow log.
But, is it possible to trace/debug the sub workflow as well(in single stretch).
Please guide with t-codes & procedures(links).......
Regrads.
santosh.

Hi Santosh,
You should be able to see the technical log for the subflow as well - but perhaps that's not what you are asking.
First, you should always be able to 'trace' your subflows by starting them directly via SWUS. Then you will have the log to review.
You can also set the workflow trace on via SWU9.
Hope this helps,
Sue

I can't Debugging BADI WS14000133

Hi all,
I need debugging the BADI to workflow WS14000133, but I can't debugging. I tested with my user, the user WF-BATCH and the user to create the SC, but with nothing I have had lucky.
Is possible this debug?
Many thanks,
Regards,
David.

Hello
of course it is possible to debug.
go to SE18, call your implementation, and open the get_remaining_approvers.
put your Breakpoint here.
Put an another Breakpoint to function module BBP_PDH_WFL_DB_UPDATE in the fu.group
bbp_pdh_wfl. here you have to change the lv_in_dialog flag to X -> then it will go to debugging mode..
now call the transaction bbpsc01, and create a SC. at the last step, before ordering go to debugging /h...
there you go

How can I debug a web application running on Weblogic 10.3

Hello,
I have inherited a NetUI Web Application developed using Weblogic Workshop and I can't manage to debug it. I have configure my server in Workshop and to debug it I right-click the project in Project Exporer and select Debug As -> Debug On Server, but this isn't working. The browser does open the application doesn't appear to be getting delpoyed.
Can anyone help me out? I am using Weblogic 10.3 and Java 1.6.
Thanks,
Sean

Hi Kal,
The application is an enterprise application packaged as an EAR. if I right click on the project and click Debug As -> Debug on Server, the application appears in the Server Tab, but it does not start automatically. If I then manually start the server the application runs, but it does not stop at break points and I can not debug it.
If I right-click on the web project that is packaged as part of the ear and select Debug As -> Debug On Server again the application is deployed, but I can't debug it. I don't get error messages, the application functions as normal but it does not stop at break points. When I attempt to debug the application via the Web Project, two browsers open automatically, both correctly displaying the application.

Sean

How can I debug a routine created in Deletion of similar requests?

Hello Experts,
I need some help from you. I need to delete overlapping requests and the common
settings you can set are not suitable, so I decided to write my own ABAP routine.
But how can I debug a routine, which is implemented in the deletion of similar requests?
Hope you can help me.
Cheers
Daniel Weilbacher

Please go to the routine code..
In the menu options..u will find an option for breakpoint--set..
The line where breakpoint is set will get highlighted and u will also see a STOP symbol..
then come out of routine..and then run the data load..
this ABAP routine for overlapping request deletion runs before the scheduled data load..
the run shud stop at the set breakpoint and show the routine code..in debugger mode..
cheers,
Vishvesh

How can I debug a sequence that has a subsequence is running in a separate thread?

Hi,
How can I debug a sequence that has a subsequence is running in a separate thread?
I have to have a continues check for a digital in signal to be able to terminate the sequence if a physical button is pushed.
This is running in a separate thread, but this way I cannot debug the main sequence.
Is there any workaround for this?
Thanks,

Can Automator run a workflow on many folders, one at a time?

Hello,
In a parent folder, I have a bunch of subfolders with image files (BMP, JPG or PNG).
I want each of these subfolders to become a PDF combining the original image files.
I also want the resulting PDFs to be named as the original subfolder.
Is there a way to do it with Automator, or do I have to dive into Applescript (I am totally new to both)?
In Automator, the following 3-step workflow does almost what I want:
#1 - Ask for Finder Items (I provide the parent folder)
#2 - Get folder contents
#3 - New PDF from images
However, I get only one huge PDF combining the contents of all subfolders (I need one PDF per subfolder) and I must give for step #3 a specific file name (I need the filename to be that of the containing folder).
Am I on the right path? I tried using the 'Loop' action and the 'Path' variable but I didn't progress.
More generally, can Automator run a workflow on a bunch of folders one folder at a time, or is that a job for Applescript?
Thank you very much for you help.
W.

Unfortunately, the text field in the *New PDF from Images* action doesn't support variables, and the *Rename Finder Items* action doesn't either (I wish Apple would get on the stick with updating their actions). There is this macosxhints article about hacking the workflow plist, but that doesn't always work.
I have a couple of actions that could be used - the Get Names of Finder Items action can be used to get the folder name (to put into a variable), and the Change Name of Finder Items action does accept variables to change the name.

How can i execute a workflow using a bapi/wapi??

Hi All,
How can i execute a workflow using a bapi/wapi??
pls advice
thanks

Hi Hrus,
it's not as simple as a single BAPI to approve a workflow.
Workflow comes with a Workflow API (WAPI) that you can use to programmatically interact with the workflow system. The WAPI is implemented as a group of RFC-enabled function modules that are prefixed with "SAP_WAPI_".
Approving a workflow is simply taking a decision path for a workflow item. It is logically no different to rejecting the same workflow item or any other workflow decision.
As part of NetWeaver workflow is tightly coupled to the WAS platform you are running on so you may need to perform WAPI operations slightly differently on older releases.
Some of the WAPI calls you might need to use include: -
SAP_WAPI_GET_HEADER to get the workitem header
SAP_WAPI_READ_CONTAINER to get the workitem container
SAP_WAPI_GET_OBJECTS to get the attached objects
SAP_WAPI_DECISION_READ to get a list of possible decisions
SAP_WAPI_SET_WORKITEM_STATUS to set the workitem status
SAP_WAPI_WRITE_CONTAINER to write to the workitem container
SAP_WAPI_EXECUTE_WORKITEM to execute the workitem
I usually do what you are trying to do by adding the decision to the workflow container and then executing the workflow.
Be warned, you can really stuff things up if you get this wrong! Make sure you know what you are doing.
Quoting from Practical Workflow for SAP by Alan Rickayzen, et al from SAP Press...
Writing directly to the workflow container is dangerous because it can compromise the integrity of the process.
...be careful that you do not waste time duplicating existing ad hoc features of SAP's Workflow Engine.
For example you can use events (combined with wait steps), instead of container modifications to force the workflow to restart.
