  Key Concepts: 
  Start transaction is a feature of SAP Business Workflow that allows users to initiate a workflow process. It is used to start a workflow process from an external application or from within the SAP system. The start transaction feature allows users to define the parameters of the workflow process, such as the workflow template, the initiator, and the recipient. 
  
  How to use it: 
  To use the start transaction feature, users must first create a workflow template in the SAP system. This template defines the steps and tasks that will be performed in the workflow process. Once the template is created, users can then use the start transaction feature to initiate a workflow process. The parameters of the workflow process can be defined in the start transaction dialog box. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When using the start transaction feature, it is important to ensure that all of the parameters are correctly defined. This will ensure that the workflow process runs smoothly and efficiently. Additionally, it is important to remember that any changes made to the workflow template after it has been initiated will not be reflected in the running workflow process.
