SAP Business Workflow
and Business Rules Framework Plus - BRFplus Thomas Kosog ASUG Annual Conference Session 0801 May 14, 2012
2.
© 2011 SAP
AG. All rights reserved. 2 Agenda - SAP Business Workflow and BRFplus • Overview of an example material master process • Overview of BRFplus (recommended release level: NW 7.02 SP 11) • BRFplus in Detail • Function, Ruleset, Rule, Expression, Action • ABAP program to start the process • Business Object Type • Event Queue • Steps in the SAP Business Workflow • BOR method with BRFplus function call • Generated BRFplus Task with generated ABAP Object Class • Summary
3.
© 2011 SAP
AG. All rights reserved. 3 Example for a Material Master Workflow and BRF plus ABAP program to call BRF plus function “Check Material” -Select materials from data base using field MARA-BISMT and MARA_MTART - Loop over result and filter via Material Class and Material Type in Decision Table - Trigger Business Object Event BUS1001006 – Started_By_BRFplus Hint: Use Event Queue to avoid system overload Workflow Container - Material-Number - Material-Type - Unit of Measure - Old Material - Industry - Material Owners Background Step “ZB1001006 - Get Material data and find Material Owner” Call BRF plus function “Find Approvers” with Decision Table (Material Type & Branch Material Owner) Workflow WS97300254 Dialog Step for Material Owner with Attachment – Display Material. BOR method calls BRF plus function “Determine BISMT” - Decision Tree - Present result in Pop-Up with suggested BISMT value Background Step Call BAPI to add BISMT to Material -Raise temporary ERROR, if it fails Generated BRFplus Task “Send Email” Material Owner provided value for BISMT
4.
BRFplus Details
5.
© 2011 SAP
AG. All rights reserved. 5 BRFplus Overview BRFplus workbench: - Simulate Function Input via ABAP Program to call a BRFplus function Input via generated Web Service Function with Signature (Input data and result) BRFplus Application Ruleset (One or more)Context: Function Signature and additional Variables Sequential Rules to implement Business Logic Perform Action, like “Send email”, “Start Workflow”, “Trigger Event” Expressions, like Data Base Look Up, Loop, Decision Table, Decision Tree, Formula After simulation: Look at result and trace in the BRFplus WorkbenchRead Read and Update Returned Result
6.
© 2011 SAP
AG. All rights reserved. 6 Transaction “BRFplus” – Call Web Browser with BRFplus Workbench Finishing Steps - SAVE - CHECK - ACTIVATE BRFplus is generating ABAP objects Called from method in Workflow dialog step Called from method in Workflow background step Called from Program to start Workflow Active Indicator Switch to EDIT mode for more functionality Right click to get menu
7.
© 2011 SAP
AG. All rights reserved. 7 BRFplus Function GUID used in ABAP program to call BRFplus function Import Export Drop Down Menu Test
8.
© 2011 SAP
AG. All rights reserved. 8 Simulation of a BRFplus function (Test) Trace shows result of every step Note: This event did not occur yet, since the step to call the ABAP statement “Commit Work” was not added to this BRFplus function yet.
9.
© 2011 SAP
AG. All rights reserved. 9 BRFplus Data Element and “Where Used List “ BRFplus “Binding” points to DDIC element. You can also define elements on BRFplus delivered types: - Text, Amount, Boolean, Number, Quantity or Time-Point Signature
10.
© 2011 SAP
AG. All rights reserved. 10 Ruleset defined in BRFplus Function A BRFplus function needs at least one ruleset. Each ruleset has one or more rules. A ruleset is using the signature of the BRFplus function and can add additional variables to the context Hint: Top-Down Modeling Approach – Create the next “lower” level when and where you need it
11.
© 2011 SAP
AG. All rights reserved. 11 Ruleset and Rules Click on the “number” in front of the variable to add more Context Elements Example: “Material-List” to carry result of rule-1 into rule-2 Rules are called sequentially BRFplus expression for a data base select statement - Result: Material-List Complex rule with loop, decision table and action to trigger Workflow Event
12.
© 2011 SAP
AG. All rights reserved. 12 Rule with Expression – Decision Table The Material List was created by the previous rule, which called an expression to perform a data base look up. The Material-Group and Industry are a part of the structure Z_MATERIAL and are used in the decision table Decision Table
13.
© 2011 SAP
AG. All rights reserved. 13 Action Predefined BRFplus action for Workflow - Start Workflow Instance - Trigger Object Event Hint: It is better for the system performance not to start too many workflow instances in a short time Trigger Events and use Event Queue Option to add values to predefined event parameters
14.
© 2011 SAP
AG. All rights reserved. 14 Decision Table to Return Users BRFplus function to find users - Context - Ruleset - Rule - Expression with decision table returning a list of users - Check user validity and convert into Workflow Agents in following rule or calling ABAP method
15.
© 2011 SAP
AG. All rights reserved. 15 Decision Tree to suggest Value for BISMT Find BISMT Value based on - Industry (Branch) - Unit of Measure - Material Type Industry UoM M Others Type BISMT = Goods FERT Others BISMT = Item Type BISMT = Service FERT Others BISMT = Component KG Others Hint: This is only an example. This is NOT how SAP recommends to use the field MARA_BISMT BISMT = Others
16.
Workflow Design
17.
© 2011 SAP
AG. All rights reserved. 17 Summary Overview for the Start Process ABAP program BRFplus function BRFplus Expression Workflow WS97300254 Workflow - Container BOR Event Event Queue Job to run Event Queue BRFplus Ruleset BRFplus Rule MARABRFplus Action BRFplus Application Read
18.
© 2011 SAP
AG. All rights reserved. 18 Business Object Type – SW01 ZB1001006 is a sub-object type of Business Object BUS1001006 with a system-wide delegation Hint: BRFplus functions can also be called in virtual attributes and functional methods BAPI call Call BRFplus function Triggered by an Action from within a BRFplus function
19.
© 2011 SAP
AG. All rights reserved. 19 Example Program to Start the Process – SE38 Hint: Set a breakpoint and run the program to see the ABAP code, which was generated by BRFplus Each BRFplus function has its own unique GUID
20.
© 2011 SAP
AG. All rights reserved. 20 BOR Method calling a BRFplus function GUID of the BRFplus function to find Material Owners This BRFplus function provides a result. These users need to be checked and changed into Workflow Agents. If no workflow agent could be determined, then an exception handler could be added, a Workflow error could be raised or the workitem could be routed to all possible agents of the dialog step.
21.
© 2011 SAP
AG. All rights reserved. 21 Event Trace - SWEL If the BRFplus function was only simulated, then this list is empty This snap shot was taken, after the Start Program was called This snap shot was taken after the “event-queue” job was started
22.
© 2011 SAP
AG. All rights reserved. 22 Event Type Linkage - SWETYPV Similar to the „Workflow event activation‟, this configuration for using the Event Queue needs to be transported to the QA or productive system.
23.
© 2011 SAP
AG. All rights reserved. 23 Event Queue - SWEQADM Background job for processing the event queue The event queue is read by a background job at regular intervals. The events found are delivered to the registered event receivers. Configuration setting on each system: - Schedule background job - Define operating mode Specify the events per read access, which are to be processed via the event queue. Specify the time interval between two read accesses, if there are events in the queue. Specify the time interval before the event queue is next checked. This time interval is adhered to if there are no more events after the queue is read. Hint: Start with the SAP default setting for “Events per minute” and then increase this number by 50% once (or twice) and test max. throughput of tRFC
24.
© 2011 SAP
AG. All rights reserved. 24 Simple Example for a Dialog Workitem with Result of BRFplus Decision Tree
25.
© 2011 SAP
AG. All rights reserved. 25 BRFplus Button in the Workflow Builder 1. 2. 3. 5. Manually copy GUID of BRFplus Function BRFplus Workbench CONTINUE creates a Task with BRFplus button Click on BRFplus button to open Workbench 4. Generated Task
26.
© 2011 SAP
AG. All rights reserved. 26 BRFplus Workflow Task with Generated Binding and Generated ABAP Object Class Look at class with transaction SE24 to see how the Method reads task container and calls BRFplus function with import and export parameters BRFplus function with decision table and send email action Parameters of BRFplus function must be based on DDIC elements
27.
© 2011 SAP
AG. All rights reserved. 27 Summary “End To End” Process ABAP Program calling BRFplus function “Check Material” to trigger Business Object Events Event Queue will spread out Workflow starts Business Object Method to collect data for Workflow Container and to call BRFplus function “Find Owners”. Method will also check user and convert them to Workflow Agents. Online transaction calling BRFplus function “Determine BISMT” Generated Task based on generated ABAP Object Class to call BRFplus function “Send Email”
28.
© 2011 SAP
AG. All rights reserved. 28 Summary - BRFplus Terminology compared to Workflow BRFplus SAP Business Workflow Function Workflow template Simulate with trace Test Workflow and look Workflow Log ABAP procedure to call BRFplus function ABAP program to start Workflow instance Import parameters in function signature Workflow container elements with import flag Ruleset (Each function needs at least one ruleset) Workflow Builder for Main Workflow or Sub-Workflow Context (for each ruleset) - Click on “Number” to add Variables Manually add elements to the Workflow container at design-time Rule - Ruleset calls one or more rules in sequence Workflow Step of the type „Activity‟ - Standard Task Condition to perform rules - based on variables in context Condition in the process flow to bypass a step Expression (One rule can call many expressions) - Import parameters from context - Result changes a variable in context Standard Task calls method of Business Object or ABAP Object - Binding to Workflow Container via Task Container Action - Import parameters from context - Result has no impact on context Asynchronous procedure called by Workflow. Examples: “Send Email”, “Start Workflow” or “Trigger Event”
