3643549 - Workflow On Save For Registered Products Not Working

Symptom

Create a workflow rule 'Registered Product After Save' for the BO INSTALL POINT to trigger the KUT field 'Dummy' upon save. However, it currently triggers only when a new Registered Product is created, and not when existing Registered Product data is changed 

Environment

SAP Cloud for Customer

Reproducing the Issue

To see the rule not triggering during save:

  1. Go to Installed Base WoC.
  2. Open Registered Products view and open any Registered Product.
  3. Perform any changes in the Header level to the object ex : Registered Product Description, Product Category.
  4. Go to Workflow Changes tab and see the rule is not triggered.

Cause

In the Registered Product screen, fields are derived from two Business Objects: `INSTALLTION POINT` and `REGISTERED PRODUCT`.

Currently, when a change is made to fields from the `INSTALLATION POINT` BO, the data is successfully replicated to the `REGISTERED PRODUCT` BO.

However, the reverse replication—from `REGISTERED PRODUCT` to `INSTALLTION POINT`—is not occurring.

Resolution

This is the standard behavior of the system
