4. Debugging your code.

   In case you are not able to figure out why the call is failing using the monitoring tools you might want to troubleshoot by debugging the code. Note the below users you are debugging.

   Process	Debugger User
   Workflow Trigger (Outgoing Call)	User Performing the action Create Travel
   Process Completion Notification Method if_swf_cpwf_callback~workflow_instance_completed (Inbound call)	Activate the breakpoint for SAP_WFRT user

   In case the call is successful in BTP ABAP Environment but fail in SAP Build Process Automation causing the below issues. You would have to check if the process on the SAP Build Process Automation side is successful or not. The same have been explained in the next step.

   a. You still do not see your approval form in SAP Build Process Automation.

   b. You can see the Approval form but post actioning the form (Reject/Approve), you do not see a status update to (A) in BTP ABAP Environment
