In this IMG activity, you check the user exits and environment parameters that are delivered for EH&S workflow in the standard system.

Activities

1. Check user exits

Call the IMG activity Manage User Exits.

Check whether you want to use the following user exits.

  • SUB_WFCHCK: Use this user exit category if you want to define your own start conditions.
  • SUB_WFSUBS: Use this user exit category if you want to define your own workflow steps and then later fill a field with your own data.

2. Check environment parameters

Call the IMG activity Specify Environment Parameters.

Set up the following environment parameters:

  • WF_SUB_FLG_ACTIVE

    This parameter indicates whether EH&S workflow in specification management is:

    • Active (X or TRUE)
    • Not active (<empty> or FALSE)

      The standard setting is not active. (The indicator is checked by report RC1WFSUB that starts the workflow processes.)

  • WF_SUB_DATE_FROM and WF_SUB_TIME_FROM

    These parameters contain the date and time as of which changes to specification data are taken into account by EH&S workflow in specification management:

    • WF_SUB_DATE_FROM
      • Date in internal format YYYYMMDD, for example, 19990120 (January 20, 1999). The standard setting is 00000000.
    • WF_SUB_TIME_FROM
      • Time in internal format HHMMSS, for example, 235530 (11:55 pm and 30 seconds). The standard setting is 000000.

      Using the date and time, the report recognizes which changes to specifications are relevant to starting the workflow processes. If you want to use the EH&S workflow, you should schedule the report RC1WFSUB as a background job and start it at regular intervals (see Set Up Job for Starting EH&S Workflow).

      Example:

      You schedule the report RC1WFSUB for each night at 11:55 pm. The parameters WF_SUB_DATE_FROM and WF_SUB_TIME_FROM therefore have, for example, the values 19990120 and 235530. The report determines those changes to specifications that were made one second after the defined date and time (January 20th, 1999 at 11.55 pm and 30 seconds) to the current start time of the report. Due to these changes, the report decides which workflow procedures are to be started. After starting the procedures, the report overwrites the contents of the parameters with the current start time and date, thus avoiding reference to the old changes made to specifications.

      Caution:

      The changes to specifications that were made in the relevant time period are determined by the report using change documents that were written during this time period. For this reason, it is very important that the documents are not deleted by the system administrator too soon. Also, the parameters should not contain times and dates before the time the release was changed to EH&S 2.5A.
