Information on SRM Workflows

Hi Forum,
How does a workflow finds who are the approvers for a particular shopping cart and if they have approved or rejected it?
Any pointers will be of great help.
Regards,
Anubhav

Hi,
SRM uses SAP Business Workflow engine in NetWeaver. SAP Business Workflow has workflow template, standard task, event workflow container objects. Please look at http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/en/c5/e4a957453d11d189430000e829fbbd/frameset.htm .
In standard, approver is the manager of SC owner. You have to maintain Organization structure.
Approve and Reject is manager's action in the document.
Regards,
Masa

Workorder PR utilizing SRM Workflow - How to ?

We are running ECC 6.0 with SRM 7.0. We have a requirement to utilize the capablities of SRM Workflow to route document approval across multiple approvers, as unlike in ECC we are no longer dependent on just the release strategy.
Is there any recommended approach to get the ECC Work order generated PR to transfer over as SRM Shopping Cart. Aftere the Shopping Cart is approved, the next process would be PO creation.
Looking forward to your answers

Solved myself. Can be activated from inside SWDA as well.

Triggering SRM workflow from a web-based form (HTML)

I am a beginner in SAP, please bear with me.
I have created an online data entry form using html to populate a table in a non-SAP database. I am able to call this form in SAP EP using URL iView.
I want some help on triggering an SRM workflow from this form.
Thanks.

Hi Vadim,
I would like to explain the scenario:
1.The form would reside in the SAP Enterprise portal
2.When the form is completed and the "submit" button is clicked, I expect a workflow in SAP SRM to be triggered.
3.The workflow is a developed three-step approval workflow. It was developed using the Hierarchical Approval workflow wizard.
Questions:
1. How can the workflow be triggered when the submit button is clicked?
2. How can the data from the Form be integrated into the workflow and vice versa?

SAP SRM Workflow Options: Winshuttle or ABAP WebDynpro

We are implementing SRM. Our considerations for SAP Workflow are Winshuttle with an MS Sharepoint Site,or,ABAP WebDynpro. Does anyone have any experiences or suggestions that they could share that could help us to make a desicion. Or, another method that is cost efficient and easily supportable?
Thank-You.

Hi Tom,
Workflow component is in built in SRM. You donu2019t need any external component for it.
There are 2 types of workflow supported by SAP SRM.
1. Application Controlled Workflow
2. Process Controlled Workflow (BRF)
You can use BRF if you are implementing SRM 5.0 & above.
I think you should explore more on SRM workflows; it will certainly give you insight on workflow implementation.

How can we debug an SRM workflow problem?

Q: How can we debug an SRM workflow problem?

Hi,
In SRM system using transaction SWI6 you can troubleshoot the workflow process.
if you are using N step badi in the workflow process, we can debug the badi BBP_WFL_APPROV_BADI
method GET_REMAING_APPROVERS
if required please take a help of Abap consultant to debug...
Thanks & Regards,

SRM workflow reinicio

Hola a todos,
Tengo un requisito que es similar a la del ruta
SPRO -> Servidor SRM -> sourcing -> Definir campos en Compras que desencadenan Workflow
Puedo definir qué campos de un carrito de la compra deben dar lugar a un flujo de trabajo de aprobación cuando se editan.
Pero no lo hace para Ordenes de Compra.
La idea es que se inicie el WF nuevamente solo cuando se modifica un campo del pedido.
No estoy seguro de si es posible para PO. Si es así, alguna sugerencia sobre cómo hacer esto.
Gracias,
Edward.

Hi Arun,
First and foremost: did you run SWU3?
This is a crucial starting point for workflow in SRM as it does various automatic customizations regarding SRM-workflow.
You indicate you activated the workflow. Could you detail how?
One of the safest ways is to use the transaction OOCU.
In the tree presented go to:
SRM > SRM-EBP > SRM-EBP-WFL
In this you can both activate the workflow, activate the event-linkage (telling the system that the SAVE-event on a BUS2121 = Shopping Cart should select WS10000060 as a potential workflow). You should be able to check whether everything is setup correctly using SWETYPV (it should list the BUS2121 + event: SAVED linked to WS10000060, with the event-linkage-checkbox marked).
If it still does not work, please let me know.

SRM Workflow for external Purchase requisitions ECC

Dear experts,
We are in SRM 7 Classic scenario , ECC 6. Using SRM process controlled workflow . We want to enable SRM workflow for external Purchase requisitions. As per SAP note 505030 topic 16 , approval is not triggered in SRM for external requirements. So we need to find a new solution as it's a clinet requirement.
Current scenario:
External purchase requisition created from ME51N or Plant maintenance are sent to SOCO for buyer completion. External PRs generate a SC BUS2121 EXTR in status approved.
Desired scenario:
We want those external requirements to be sent to SRM for approval (approval with completion + approval)
After implementing changes suggested in Prasannau2019s document (http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/index?rid=/library/uuid/5082a622-7310-2c10-1a9b-ef31dd69a770 ) , the Workflow is still not triggered for the external PRs, the SC is created but remains in status awaiting approval. No work item is created (neither in BBP_PD not in SWI6, not in SWIA).
Can anyone provide some guidance on what else need to be changed in order to activate SRM Workflow for external PRs?
Many thanks in advance,
Nuria

Hi Any one got answere this issue. I also implemented the steps provided in the document created by Prasannau2019s. The workflow is getting triggered for external requisitions now but when we are changing the PR in ECC and transferring again that time its not gettign triggered neighther its restarting the exisiting approval workflow in process (if any).
Thanks,
Swapnil

SRM Workflow - Starter

Hi,
Please can I be shred with some documents on configuring SRM workflow from scratch? I tried looking for some docs in SDN and google but hardly could get one. Also tried with help.sap.com but not that detailed on developing the objects, I wish to learn workflow in SRM

no difference as per the control flow, for event controlled WFs. thats what is present in 5.0
in 7.0 we have BRF, you park this for now...
just see the standard templates of SRM workflows in SWE2 and read the documentation of the WF in the basic data in SWDD..
there you will find that few WF need few badi to be implemented as must, to determine approvers.. like n step approval n all..
