Hi radhakrishna yerrabothu ,
SAP Workflow is a tool to automate complex business processes where there is more than one user involved. SAP workflow maps the position in organization because SAP believes that Positions are more stable than the people.
SAP Workflow is a process tool that is designed to facilitate and automate business processes involving the tasks sequence performed by the users (people in the workplace) and ensure that the right work is assigned in the right sequence at the right time to the right person in the workflow. The SAP workflow can be linked to other software tools such as Microsoft Outlook or Lotus Notes. Using SAP Workflow, each step of a business transaction can be easily monitored throughout the initiation and completion of the business processes. The SAP Workflow enables the process owners to track deadlines, determine the workload as well as provide statistics on the length of time to complete work processes.
The key components of the SAP Workflow include the Workflow Definition, Work Items, Events triggers and the Organizational Structure in the workplace.
Technically SAP Workflow is an integrated part of SAP application server.
Example 1
[[Approval procedure in Procurement. Some person creates a Purchase Order which must be approved by one or another (or even more than one) manager depending on the amount]]
Example 2
Suppose Person A is EDI administrator. It is defined that all EDI related jobs will be done by him. It is also defined that in his absence another person will do his job. If person A wants to take a planned leave and then he wants all his jobs assigned to him in his absence to be assigned to person B. He will nominate the person B in SAP and then SAP automatically assigns the job of A to B.

Hi,
Why do you want to trigger a wflow and what do you want to do with this trigger. Can you give more details of your exact requirements.
But, if you are looking for how to trigger, you can write a small ABAP pgm and schedule it as a job every night. THis job basically reads the table P1000-ENDDA for expiry date and if it reached today, then you can either trigger the wflow with SAP_WAPI_START_WORKFLOW or use SAP_WAPI_CREATE_EVENT to raise your custom event(for Business Obj. BUS7018, i think this is your BO and there are no std events right now, so you will ahve to add your custom event by extending BUS7018 to ZBUS7018).
Hope I am clear and this helps and if you need more details, reply.

How to use Workflow Background Engine in Oracle Apps?

I have created the development of a custom workflow,tested it in Developer studio in Workflow administrator and has been working correctly. I was hoping to implement this workflow using Workflow background process Concurrent request and move to production.Unfortunately when submititng the concurrent request I am not receiving any notification eventhough all the time Concurrent request always completes normal.(Also when submitting as concurrent request workflow is not prompting for the itemkey). Is it not possible to implement a workflow in the application using background concurrent process? Any help is appreciated.

Please note that Workflow Background engine is used to process workflows that are in deferred status. It is not used to launch the workflow. You will have to write your own code to launch the Workflow using one of the following methods.
1. Use WF_ENGINE.CreateProcess and WF_ENGINE.LaunchProcess APIs.
2. Register a Business Event, create a subscription to the event to launch the workflow and raise the Business Event from your code.
Workflow Background Engine has parameters such as Itemtype, Min and Max Thresholds, Process Deferred, Process Timeout and Process Stuck... which basically determine the type of background work it has to do.
Please refer to Workflow Developer Guide on how to launch Workflows and the uses of Workflow Background Engine.
Thanks
