E-Recruitment (300) WF in ECC5.0 (640)

Question

G'day all,
Can anyone provide advice around the set up required to get the standard WFs for Processing an E-Rec Requisition working (WS51800008)?
My E-Rec consultant believes they have set up everything necessary. The basis boys believe they have maintained the technical internet settings and activated the BSPs. I've ensured that all the Workflows linkages are activated and tasks are general. However when a Requistion is created and 'Forward' is selected (apparently the trigger for the process) nothing happens.
The events ERC_OBJECT.CREATED and ERC_OBJECT.STATUSCHANGED both get raised and trigger WS51900008 and WS51900005 respectively. Both of these flows are for object types other than NB (requisition) and as such do nothing (really should be a start condition preventing their start, but that's another story).
The desired event  ERC_REQUI.APPROVALREQUESTED is not raised and WS51800008 is not triggered.
There is nothing in SM58. Nothing in ST22. Nothing in SM13. Nothing in SM21.
SLG1 (Application Logs) do show some entries (mostly relating to User links to Candidates) although not sufficiently in sync for me to believe they are very meaningful. There were issues with WF-BATCH not being linked to a Candidate although this has been resolved (as crazy as the requirement seems to me).
All OSS notes that we can find which offer the steps necessary to set up E-Rec have been followed.
Reading the help again prior to sending this message I noted that the WF will only start if the raising user does not have sufficient access to perform the action without approval. I've checked that the user being tested with is associated with the recommended Role SAP_RCF_REQUISITION_REQUESTER which according to the doco I've seen exists for this purpose.
Does anyone know what might be needed to get this thing to fire off?
Many thanks for reading this far!

Hi All,
also have requirement of modifying Standard Workflow WS WS51800008.
I have done following setting in SPRO.
SAP E-rec->Technical Settings>Workflow--> Click On documentation of Set Up Approval Process for Requisition (Workflow) and there it has given you the clear Explanation about defining parameters in the Txn WF_EXTSRV
after this i did GENERATE TASK and it generated a new TASK. but in this config it asks for Logical system and i am not sure which logical system i have to give so i have kept is blank..
so is this Logival System Necessary?? and  how to maintain it..casue  it is not maintained in SM59..
I have also done URL settings in WF_Handcust.
Also in SICF when i tested my service /sap/bc/bsp/sap/hrrcf_approval/application.bsp it gives me following error...
SAP Note
The following error text was processed in the system:
BSP Exception: Das Objekt default.htm in der URL /sap/bc/bsp/sap/hrrcf_approval/default.htm?sap-client=668&sap-sessioncmd=open ist nicht gültig.
so gurus kindly suggest me what should be done to make this workflow running...also i m modifying this workflow to add 1 dialog task so do i need to make this entry foe this task in SWFVISU??
thanks in advance....
