Forwarding work item

Hi Forum,
When we forward a workitem from Inbox of an approver..
1)Which BADI is trigered?
I tried puting a break point in workflow BADI but it is not trigered when i pushed the Send button.
2)Are any mails trigered?
Regards,
Anubhav

HI,
To the best of my knowledge , there is no Specific BADI for forwarding Work Item.
But inorder to allow forwarding the Work item, Purchasing Org structure (PPOSA_BBP) , Flag:FORWARD Work Item attribute need to be set.

How to handle the situation to forward work item manually?

Hi All,
In my workflow -
For agent determination I have some custom logic to determine agents. If custom logic donu2019t return any agents then the requirement is work item needs to send back to workflow initiator.
My issue-
When no agent determines
1.Work item needs to send back to workflow initiator - and he should not able to Approve or Reject work item - He Can only forward work item to any other person manually (he determines to whom it should forward).
2. After manually forwarding the work item it is normal process 2 level of approval from that point .
Please let me know for the first item how to handle the situation?
I have developed 2 section - one goes with regular agent determination -
and the other one when no agent determines then I am assigning back to workflow initiator. Now I want to handle that - initiator should not accept or reject and he can only forward to someone. How to develop this?
Please let me know your thoughts.
Thanks in advance.
Rajesh,

Hi All,
Thanks for the answers.. sorry for late replay.. requirement was not confirmed.
1. As I described in my question
After my custom conditions.. I have to send workitem back to initator ( Now initiator forwards the work item to someone else ( need to restrict users based on role - )..
While doing this process initiator should not have access to approve or reject he should only forward the workitem.
After forwarding the work item -this person should have approve or reject options.
My question is not answered..
1. As Vijay told..
Dont give Approve and Reject Options and in Description u specify like
If I dont provide approve/reject when I am sending the work item to initiator - After initiator forwarding this work item - how do we the other approver will get options Approve and Reject?
2. AS -surjith kumar
If your Using the Rule or Expression you have to restrict via coding - This will solve one of my problem -
How I can restict users with role based?
My problem is not solved.. Initiator should not have access to approve but He should only forward the work item...
Please let me know...

SWIA -- Forwarding option is grayed out... can not forward Work Item

Hi,
When I use SWIA to forward one Work Item to another user, that option is grayed out there.
While another use with same access is getting this option for the same work item.
Any user specific setting preventing this?
DA

Usually when you try to forward an already forwarded item then the option is greyed out. Which is why one user can forward it and another cannot.

Forward work item that has been completed

Can I know if there is anyway that I can forward the work item to someone even though the transaction has already completed?
Also I would like to know if I can forward the work item to someone when it's not in a dialog step?

Hello Shreya,
You can forward the workitem from the transaction code SWIA.
You can also forward the non-dialog work item too from the same transaction code.

Auto Forward Work items

Hi,
I would like to know do we have this in standard functionality
Leave Request.
When manager is going on vacation ,the manager will assign the user id in UWL inbox to whom all or leave request work items should be forwarded for time interval eg 10 days /end date.
Can anyone faced this same kind of requirement.
IF this is possible in standard ,how authorization should be handled when it is automatically forwarded to another user.
Thanks,
Nachy

Hi Nachy,
For this you have to actiivate the sustitution for that particular user.
Say user A --> substitute (User B).
Once the substitution is activated, you can verify the same in HRUS_D2 table.
Thnaks and egards,

Catching a forwarded work item in workflow.

We have a workflow with an escalation loop. An e-mail is sent every 5 days until a work item is finally completed. However if that work item is forwarded, the original owner is still notified.
Is it possible to catch that a work item was forwarded and trigger a modification of the container so the forwarded approvers are notified?

Hi
Assuming that email is sent from the Escalation Outcome of the Decision Item, here is what you need to do to get the work item of the Escalated Item.
Create a container element f=to hold that Workitem.
From the decision step to the workflow binding pass the workitem (you will have a workitem object in the step / task container, expand that and get the ID) -> Pass to that local variable of the workflow
In the escalation branch, create an activity step, pass this workitem to a method
In the method, call SAP_WAPI_GET_WI_AGENTS, pass them back to workflow (APPEND to the existing notification agent list).

Work Item forwarding problem

Forwarding 'Wait Step'work items using SWIA

Hi,
I need to forward work items of one user A to another user B urgently, using SWIA.
The work items are in executed state. This is after a fork step in the workflow, where the executed work item is one branch of the fork.
As these items are executed, we will have to forward the work items that are in ready state.
The work item for the other branch of the fork is in ready state. However this is a wait step, and hence I am not able to forward this item.
Kindly advise as to how should I forward these items.
Best Regards,
Smruthi.

Hi Smruthi,
Dont confuse with the wait for events and dialog work item. There is no direct link between the wait for events and the work item.
Only dialog work items needs the user action and dialog work item's only can be forwarded to other user's.
For this, the work item should have the status of 'Ready'. If the work item has the status 'In process' that means, the user opened the work item and still he didnt take ant action on it.
In this case, using SWIA you can manually change the status as 'Ready' and then you can forward the work item to the other user's.
To forward the work item use the function module 'SAP_WAPI_FORWARD_WORKITEM' or use the SWIA transaction.
Thanks,
Viji.

Authorization to disable SAP Inbox Forward function for specific Work Items

Hi.
I recently solved a case for a customer of mine regarding authorizations for work items. They have several workflows running, but for this specific custom developed workflow, users should not be allowed to use the SAP Inbox Forward button.
I started by creating a new task classification (Z_FW) which I implemented on the workflow tasks where the forward functionality should be disabled. Now for test purposes I created a dummy user which I initially gave only authorization to the tcode SBWP, then I manually added the authorization object S_WF_WI.
For this entry I allowed all activities for work item type W and F for classification 1, 2, 3 and NO_CLASS (SAP Standard classification).
Now to my understanding this would give the test user authorization to perform all activities on Work Items and Workflows which are classified with one of the above, but also prevent me from doing anything with Workflows and Work Items with classification Z_FW.
However, to my surprise everything seems to work perfectly with just this entry. I am able to execute and forward work items with the standard classification, while I am able to execute, but not forward, work items with classification Z_FW.
My intention was to add another entry for authorization object S_WF_WI, for classification Z_FW with all activities except forwarding. But when I tried that, the only change was that forwarding was enabled for the work items with classification Z_FW, which I didnu2019t want.
Now can anyone explain to me why this is working? I am not too familiar with SAP Authorization as my area is mainly ABAP and WF, but his just does not seem logical.
Hoping someone can give me an explanation....
Thanks

Does the standard function not do what you want?
Task -> Additional data -> Agent Assignemt -> Maintain -> Attributes -> Forwarding not allowed.

SAP inbox work item forwarding is not working properly

Hi,
We are having problem in forwarding the work item in ECC Upgraded environment.
If USER1 forward a Work item to USER2, the work item is disappearing from USER1's inbox. also the same the same forwarded copy is available in the USER1 Outbox.
But it is not reaching the USER2's inbox. Not able to trace where it is going. the USER1 has the authorizations to forward the work items.
Is there any settings or changes that needs to be done in ECC6 for forwarding?
Help is appreaciated.

Function module to identify users - fowarded work items

Hi
Pls can anyone suggest an appropriate function module to identify the users of the forwarded work items?
The onyl input i have is the user name.
the scenario is : UserA had fwd'ed a workitem XYZ to UserB and I need to find programatically all the details and the user of the workitem XYZ like who had forwarded to UserB. Since i dont have the work item number or dont want to restrict with date range, i wish to get this info purely with the user id only. pls can anyone suggest some functions?

Hi Prabhu
First, get the Work item IDS:
Go to table SWWUSERWI, supply USER_ID as your User (User B) and FORWARDED flag = 'X'.
You will get all workitems forwarded to THAT user (USER_ID) - User B
Now Get "Who dared to forward them to me (the user which you have" :
Now use FM SWL_WI_GET_HISTORY , supply WI_ID as fetched above
You will get the History in table HISTORY. From this table, keep only records where WI_ID matches the above, METHOD = 'SWW_WI_FORWARD'
You will be left with step history for that WI ID where it was forwarded. The field METH_USER will contain the user name of the guy (culprit) who forwarded the WI

Stop executing work item

Hi All,
When the work item is sent to substitute we need to check the level of substitute. if substitute is lower
level than original approver then substitute shouldn't execute the work item instead it should be forward to higher/same level of original approver. Please help me out with your suggestions.
Thanks,
Suman

Hello,
"but not able to stop executing the work item from deleted substitutee and his inbox is also not refershing immediately, if I close thebusiness work place and re open it again, I am not seeing the forwarded work item. This is working correctly but I want the work item to be deleted from substitute's inbox when I forward the work item to another substitute. Please help me with your suggestions."
This is just a problem with refreshing the inbox. It doesn't really matter because he won't be able to execute the workitem. The same thing would happen if he and someone else received a workitem and the other person executed it first. It's not a problem.
Is this UWL or SBWP?
