How to Create a Basic SAP Business Workflow-2

Tasks
Tasks describe elementary business activities. Tasks always refer to a method of an object type. Possible
agents are defined for tasks. Tasks can refer to automatically executable methods (background tasks) or
they can need a user to execute them (dialog tasks).

Object types and objects


An object type describes the data with which you want to work in a workflow, for example the object type
Material . An object is an individual data record of an object type. Attributes are defined for an object
type, which make up its data record (for example, material name or material number). Each object type
has methods, in which activities are defined, which can be executed with the data (for example, create
material). The transactions and functions of the R/3 System can be called in a method as can your own
transactions or other applications. The last important component of an object type are its events. These
describe the status changes that an object can undergo (for example, material deleted or material
changed). A workflow can be started by an event of this kind being triggered.
The Business Object Repository provides an overview of all object types in the R/3 System. You can use
or extend the existing object types as well as create new object types.
