Use

In this Customizing activity, you define the rules for the rule-based workflow. For each change request type you can provide separate settings.

Requirements

You have created the change request types for which you want to specify rules.

You have linked the change request type to the rule-based workflow template WS60800086 using the Create Change Request Type Customizing activity.

You have defined the change request steps used for this change request type workflow using the Define Change Request Steps for Rule-Based Workflow Customizing activity.

In the case of a complex workflow scenario, for example, if there are special functions required in the workflow, you must also have defined the service names for the BAdI implementations that are to be used for this change request type workflow.

Standard settings

SAP delivers Business Rule Framework plus (BRFplus) decision tables as example content for each change request type. As a customer, this SAP-proposed content is imported into client 000 of your system. To use the content, you export the decision tables from client 000 to an excel and in your system, you import the content from this excel. The decision tables in your system are then filled with this example content. It is also still possible to define the decision tables manually.

If the excel import is recorded in a Customizing request, this Customizing request can also be used to import these decision tables to other systems or clients.

Activities

This Customizing activity calls the Web Dynpro application USMD_SSW_RULEwhich enables you to define the workflow rules. Using the help link on the initial screen of this Web Dynpro application, you find a detailed description of how to proceed.
