• Key Concepts: 
  Container Operation is a feature of SAP Business Workflow that allows users to group multiple workflow tasks into a single container. This allows users to manage multiple tasks in one place, making it easier to track and monitor progress. The container operation also allows users to assign tasks to multiple users at once, making it easier to delegate and manage tasks. 
  
  How to use it: 
  To use the container operation, users must first create a container. This can be done by selecting the “Create Container” option from the SAP Business Workflow menu. Once the container is created, users can add tasks to it by selecting the “Add Task” option from the same menu. Users can then assign tasks to multiple users at once by selecting the “Assign Task” option from the same menu. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When using the container operation, it is important to remember that all tasks within a container must be completed before the container can be closed. This means that if one task is not completed, all other tasks within the container will remain open until that task is completed. Additionally, it is important to remember that all tasks within a container must be assigned to the same user or group of users in order for them to be completed in a timely manner.
