Complete workitem in a step

Question

Hi,
Team.
Customized workflow .
I have a module pool form, where click of a button the workflow is triggered, and approval is sent to the user R3 inbox.
for approval the user clicks on the work item in R3 and the module pool form pops up.
My issue is  On click of Approve & Reject Button. the status of approval or rejection has to be captured and next approval process is started.
As it is under R/3 process, so I have used a FM "SAP_WAPI_WORKITEM_COMPLETE" to capture the status
and i am sending the status from the form to container in the workflow -and then the approval process continues.
while using the FM "  SAP_WAPI_WORKITEM_COMPLETE " i have to pass the workitem id to the function module.
Can any one tell me where should i capture the work item id from and how do we pass the value to the workflow container. so that the status is used in the workflow.
please tell me how should i get the work item ....!
thanks in advance.

Hi,
Follow the below steps,
1. As you have mentioned that you are trying to trigger the workflow on click event of a button or in PAI modules. I hope you might be using a SAP_WAPI_START_WORKFLOW Function module to trigger the workflow. This function module will retun the top workitem ID.
2. Based on the parent worktiem ID you have to fetch the dependent workitems  now to get the dependent workitems  of the top workitem make use of the function mocdule SAP_WAPI_GET_DEPENDENT_WIS and read the result table for dialog workitem  with key workitem type for W .
Once you have the workitem ID pass the same to the SAP_WAPI_WORKITEM_COMPLETE, but here a small suggestion that if you are using a copy of the standard decision task TS00008267 then instead of  SAP_WAPI_WORKITEM_COMPLETE make use of SAP_WAPI_DECISION_COMPLETE, but the above two steps remain same even in the case of SAP_WAPI_DECISION_COMPLETE.
