Workflow in Waiting status..

Hi Friends,
I am executing a workflow from an reprot using function module.
but when i have checked the log then i found that the header workitem (workflow) is in waiting state.
what can be the reasons behind it...
Thanks Dev

Is it Dialog workitem or check if it missing any mandatory parameters.
Are you using SAP_WAPI_EXECUTE_WORKITEM or SAP_WAPI_DECISION_COMPLETE ?
Sometimes, Workflow behaves weird where you can try synchronizing the buffer (SWU_OBUF) and check the status.

WF 14000075 in waiting status ??

Hi,
After applying SP8 and SP9 on SRM50, all created SC create hold PO.
The hold PO is absolutely complete. If i just go to chnage mode in BBP_POC and select order, the PO status change automatically from hold to ordered and Po is duplicated into the backend (ECS scenario).
I checked SDN and WS14000075 and WS14000076 workflow definition look fine in SWDD.
In SWUD, i get sub workflow in WAITING status ??? thus i cannot proceed them...
In RZ20, i just got a red message MF BUS4101 pour WF-BATCH. Sy-subrc : .
However my WF-BATCH user seems to be OK : everything is green in SWU3 .
Does anybody encounter the same issue ?
How to solve it ?
Kind regards,

How to re-start the workflow for Shopping carts in WAITING status

Hi
We are using 1-step approval work flow, and we get some strange issue. We can add approver in the workflow, but after we click order button and back to check status again, sometimes there will be "Ad-hoc agent not found" issue. Do you know how to solve?
And one workaround for user is to re-add the approval, and sometimes the shopping cart back to normal. But sometimes, after we add the approver, the shopping cart are in waiting status:
Workflow Item:
Workitem-ID 000000714642
Task WS10000276
Text One-Step Approval: Value limit: Shopping Cart
1000114698
Status WAITING
Statustext Waiting
Date 13.06.2008
Time 10:41:22
So may I ask how to re-trigger the workflow?

Hi,
Thx for that. I need to trigger the Approval workflow to go the the approval manager.
Can u give me the document on this? thx, kerry.liu [at] ap.effem.com.
Thx very much

SRM PO Workflow (BADI Type) in waiting status

Hi all,
I am in SRM extended classic scenario. After shopping cart gets created, it gets automatically approved and PO is created. Then PO workflow is triggered for approval. This happens fine in development box. However when its been transported in quality, the PO workflow remains in 'Waiting Status'. The requested start date has been set to future date 31.12.9999. Thus the workflow does not start properly. If gets stuck with the first step. It does not go upto the approval step.
Is there anyone who can tell me why this is happening and what is the remedy?
Regards
Dip

Hi Dipankar,
Is it required to set the requested start date to future date 31.12.9999?
Also check if the same has been maintained in development system.
I think this might be restricting the workflow to proceed. Please check the relevance of this deadline monitoring.

Work item in waiting status incase of multiple approvers

Hi Experts,
We have a scenrio where in the work item needs to be sent to multiple approvers.
We have multi line container element which contains all the approvers. We have assined this container element using the expression option for the agent .
we have made the task as general task and we do not have any requested start maintained for this work item.
However we are facing a problem. Work item is always in waiting status. What might be the issue? In our case when i check the work flow log, for these work items there are three approvers, however SBWP inbox is appearing only for one approver and remaining two approvers do not have any Icon against their name.
I have checked the approvers ID's and all of them are active in the system.
Can you please help me to resolve this issue?
Regards,
Madhu

Hello,
I would look at the workitem in SWIA, proceed as if you were going to change the container elements (ie click on the workitem number, Edit > Change) and see what options are available to you.
"Resubmit: You can have a work item resubmitted to you for processing at a later date. To do this, choose Resubmit and then enter the date on which you want to receive the work item."
Let us know what you find.
Edited to add: I tried it myself, a "End resubmission" button appears when you click on the Waiting step in the workflow log.

Work item struck in 'Waiting Status'.

HI All,
I have a problem with SRM custom workflows for PO and Invoice approval. Work flow has started but stuck in the status "waiting" at the first step 00002 "Parallel Section Between Approval "
I've checked SWPC (continue workflows after crash) and SM58 (RFC connections), but its not in either.
Can any one tell why work items are going into waiting status?
Its very Urgent.
Thanks,
Shiva

Hi,
Sorry, I'm not familiar with SRM related matters. Can I just check with you if the task in the workflow is an 'Wait for Status Change' kind of activity? E.g. WS12300111 (ECC 6 Leave workflow).
If so, you may want to simulate in your test server, and run program RSWWCOND to see if the workflow will continue. Not too sure if this will help you.

HT1688 I'm trying to download a audiobook I got this morning with iTunes. However, the book is frozen on "waiting" status, what is the audiobook "waiting" for?

I'm trying to download a audiobook I got this morning with iTunes. However, the book is frozen on "waiting" status, what is the audiobook "waiting" for?

Hello Jose,
I would be concerned too if the audiobook I purchased from iTunes was not downloading on my iPhone. I have a few suggestions to get it downloaded to your iPhone.
First, I recommend checking to see if the download was interrupted:
If your download was interrupted using your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
From the Home screen, tap the iTunes app.
For iPhone or iPod touch, tap More > Downloads. For iPad, tap Downloads.
Enter your account name and password if prompted.
Tap the blue download arrow to resume.
iTunes: How to resume interrupted iTunes Store downloads
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1725
If the audiobook still does not download, I recommend signing out and back into the iTunes Store on your iPhone:
Changing your Apple ID account
Tap Settings > iTunes & App Stores, then tap the Apple ID signed in.
Sign out of the current Apple ID account and then sign in with another account or create a new Apple ID.
The last step states to sign in with another account, but for the situation you described, I recommend just signing in with your same Apple ID.
You can find the full article here:
iOS: Changing the signed-in iTunes Store Apple ID account
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1311
If you are still not able to download the audiobook, you can report an issue with this purchase using the steps in this article:

There songs in the wait status and not any more on my mac

I have songs in the cloud which are still on wait status but I have them not any more on my computer.

Then they will never be available to play on your iOS status. You'll either need to find a way to restore the files, or just delete the tracks from the iTunes library.

JDBC receiver in "waiting" status

I have a scenario where Idocs pass records through XI to 10 JDBC receivers (SQL to be specific).
The records are being inserted into all 10 database tables successfully, but in Runtime Workbench, the first receiver has a successful message, but the other 9 receivers go into "Waiting" status. After 3 retries, they go into "System Error" status (but for each retry, the records are inserted again into the tables, ie: I end up with 4 of the same records in the tables).
Runtime Workbench gives me the following error:
MP: Exception caught with cause com.sap.engine.services.ejb.exceptions.BaseTransactionRolledbackLocalException: Exception thrown in method process. The transaction is marked for rollback.
Exception caught by adapter framework: Exception thrown in method process. The transaction is marked for rollback
The message status set to WAIT.
Delivery of the message to the application using connection JDBC_http://sap.com/xi/XI/System failed, due to: com.sap.aii.af.ra.ms.api.RecoverableException: Exception thrown in method process. The transaction is marked for rollback.: com.sap.engine.services.ejb.exceptions.BaseTransactionRolledbackLocalException: Exception thrown in method process. The transaction is marked for rollback..
Can anyone help?

HI,
Did you check the Retry option set for these Adapters? if not check it in the Visual admin for the JDBC Adapter
If feasible try re-look the Design. Instead of using 10 different Adapters accessing same database, you can try with one Stored Procedure so that Database hit will be minimized and hence the queue problems.

Java Proxy message in waiting status

Hi,
   Let me explain my case, In our Integration Scenario we have configured an Inbound Java Proxy as the How to guide (HOW TO WORK WITH JAVA PROXIES) expain, but the proxy doesn't hava code, that is, it have the code by default when its created, and when we register it and the scenario runs, in the message monitoring the status of the message to the JP Business Service is in WAITING status, and in the details it says sometimes that an old reference to another JNDI name of bean is doesn't locate or the message "MessageSpecifier could not be reset".
   Remember, the Imp. class has only the default code and the scenario is JDBC --> XI --> JavaProxy
   Any ideas?

Hi Hector,
Status: WAITING
          The message had been sent and it is failed and is currently waiting for another attempt.
Solution :
When the fist attempt to deliver the message has failed (a recoverable exception arose), the message is usually rescheduled and the status is updated to WAITING. As long as the message is in this status, the Messaging System retries to deliver the message according to the configured retry settings (default 3 tries).
