MDG - S Workflow issue

Hi,
I have configured the MDG for Supplier where I am using the standard workflow template for Supplier Create - WS53100044.
I have a couple of questions here where I need your expert help.
1.I create a CR, it goes for approval. When I run validation it starts asynchronously. Any idea why this is happening? Though there are no validation errors.
2. I can also approve the CR. If I have Company Code and Purchasing Org data in it then it needs processing but the workflow log says 'No Processor assigned'.
3. If I do not have these information fed in the CR, the workflow gets approved and the next step is 'Decision on Process Contact person'. Here it looks for a reference BP. I do not get the list of BPs to select from. Please advise what is missing.
Thank you in advance..
Regards,
Jayati

Hello Jayati
your validation will always start Asynchronously as it is native feature within MDG. So no issues about it. The good part is you are not getting any validation error.
Since you using standard workflow template, try using other MDG workflow for the Processor assignment. Check the step number under "Define Workflow Step Numbers" step and then check if the correct processor is assigned there. More details can be found if you see the workflow log of your change request.
Regarding the BP issue, try completing the configurations suggested in MDGIMG under Master Data Governance for Supplier --> Set up Business Partner.
Hope this helps you.
thanks
Rahul

  • Purchase order workflow issue

    Hi All,
    A PO is created and rejected by a user in user decision step.The workflow will end.If the PO is changed(amount) again,the release strategy is triggered for the same user.But the workflow is not triggering.If the release strategy is for a different user,its triggering the workflow.I have used a fork inside which 1 parallel branch contains a wait for significantly changed event & another branch contains the user decision step,po release step & rejection reason scenario.

  • Troubleshooting Approval workflow issues

    We are getting this message from time to time and are unsure how to troubleshoot it.
    It seems as though something is changing the document, what is the best way to figure out what?
    Approval on DOCUMENT NAME has ended because the item that the task process is running on was changed.

    Hi Daniel,
    1.What message do you get?
    2. Look in the Workflow History list, eg "http://sp2013/Lists/Workflow History". Do you find any errors in there?
    3. Is the user account starting the workflow correctly synchronized in the user profile database?
    4. Is the user account starting the workflow different from the Worflow Manager setup account? (more info at
    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/jj658588.aspx#section7)
    5. Are the User Profile Service and App Management Service started? See the green frames in the screenshot below, taken from Central Administration \ Manage Services on Server.
    6.Are the App Management Service Application and User Profile Service Application started? Their proxies should be started as well. See the green frames in the screenshot below, taken from

  • Workflow issue with interco transactions & general ledger entries in F-02

    Hello Experts,
    We are encountering a workflow issue when we are entering intercompany transactions with general ledger entries in F-02. Our workflow is set up with two release levels and the details are as follows:
    Amount below $2500 - single release level
    Amount above $2500 - two release levels
    The document type that we are using is SU and it is configured with intercompany postings and trading partner enabled in the control data.
    After parking a GL document that has interco amount entries below $2500 and general ledger amount entries above $2500 in F-02, the document is supposed to go to the two release levels in the workflow because the total amount is above $2500 (interco amount + general ledger amount > $2500). However, in the workflow, the document went to the single release level instead of the two release levels.
    Any idea why the subledger amount takes precedent over the general ledger amounts in determining the workflow release level?
    We would appreciate your help in solving this issue.

    You cannot change the design of the system.
    SAP may consider the change of design if all the users across the industries are reported. If a single user has a special requirement, it cannot be changed.
    You need to ask, whether this is a critical requirement for your business. Otherwise, please follow the standard way.

  • Adding Validator step in MDG Customer workflow

    Hello All,
    I need to add validator step in MDG - Customer workflow - WS54300003 and process is, requestor will create CR and it should go to Validator. Once he approves then it should go to final approval team. Currently it is going to final approval stage at first step itself.
    I added that additional step(Validator) to workflow templete(WS54300003) under processing modeling->workfloe->other MDG workflow->Define Change Request Step Numbers. Also, assigned process at  ...-->Assign processor to Change Request Step Number (Simple Workflow).
    Seems i am still missing some thing. Could you please guide me what else need to be done? we are on MDG 6.1

    step numbers are hard-coded in this workflow template (WS54300003). if you open any task container, you will see the value of the step in the container of that task.
    any way, you should not modify workflow WS54300003 as that is considered modification to standard objects. you can copy it to a custom workflow template and then add any new step as you like. you can assign whatever number you like to any step as long as the numbers in the workflow template are consistent with the numbers assigned in the MDGIMG configuration node.
    A recommended solution is to use the rule-based workflow template. your MDG process will be much more dynamic and a lot easier to modify/enhance going forward.
    this document can help you understand how you can use the rule-based workflow template: How to Fill MDG Rule-Based Workflow Decision Tables

  • LR 3 Bug Report - file renaming error - significant workflow issue

    System configuration:
    MacPro Dual 2x2.66Ghz Dual Core Intel Xeon
    9GB RAM
    OSX 10.6.4
    Lightroom Application on System Drive
    Canon .CR2 files and Lightroom Catalog on internal software-based RAID drive
    Camera Raw Cache set to 50GB and resident on System drive
    Here is the issue:
    Once I finish the first round of editing a group of photos, I then rename them with the title of the event and a sequence number. I use LR's batch rename feature in the Library module. If I then delete 1 or more of these photos and attempt to rename them again(same event title + numerical sequence), the new names do not properly apply the numerical sequence after the filename. Either of the following can happen, and whcih one will happen is not dependednt on what I do.
    1. The files can be renamed, with the first image having a sequence number 1 number higher than the lowest number I typed into the sequence box in the batch rename dialog (if I type a number 1, the sequence starts at 2). There are also random gaps in the sequence numbering scheme. For example, the numbers will count to 15, then skip to 17, then count to 176, then skip to 178. The rest of the files might be renamed correctly, or there might be gaps. The gaps always skip a single number, and most of the time the numbers skipped are odd numbers, though numbers with a 16 are usually skipped (16, 116, 216)
    2. The files can be renamed as mentioned above, but with the addition of a -1 to the end of the sequence (example: filename-200-1 or filename-3-1). The addition of the -1 is also random, though it is more common with lower-numbered files than higher-numbered files.
    I have experienced this bug on groups as small as 50 photos or as large as several hundred.  I have tried remaning the files to a completely different text/sequence combination and then back to the one I want, and it does not help the issue. The sequence numbering is more likely to have more gaps the more virtual copies are present in the series of photos being renamed.
    This is a major workflow issue for me because the files I deliver have to be named sequentially, without gaps, following a specific text/numer naming convention. The bug is currently adding many extra hours to my post-production time. Any assitance would be greatly appreciated.
    Thank you

    Thanks for the detailed description.  I was able to repro this with your steps and have logged a bug for futher investigation.

  • Workflow issue after upgrade to ECC 6.0

    Hi,
    we are facing an workflow issue and thought if someone has faced similar issue and could help us.
    We've an approval workflow for purchase requisitions through release strategies. For some steps, if the approver is 'WF-BATCH' user, we are executing that step using a program. This program first set the workitem to completed status( this part is working), then it will close the purchase requisition to release status for a particular release code( this part is working) and then we are triggering the 'RELEASE' event for the business object providing the Object key which should take it to the next step( THIS IS NOT WORKING). The business object is custom. This was working perfectly in 4.7 version of SAP but this logic is not working in ECC6.0. we are using SAP_WAPI_CREATE_EVENT to trigger the event. But the workflow doesn't move on to next step.
    Have anyone of you have any idea as why this might be happening. Any information on this would be of great help.
    This is happening in ECC 6.0. USED TO WORK IN EARLIER VERSION.
    Regards,
    Sam K

    Hi,
    Is WF-BATCH having proper auth. ?
    Or, if you are using the FM SAP_WAPI_CREATE_EVENT in some program and is scheduled as a batch job, then that user under which this batch job is runnign should have proper auth. to raise the event. Please check those.
    Also, what the error (if any) says in SWEL ?

  • Content Workflow Issue using Cineform/PPro/AE

    Hello, I have a potential workflow issue that I need some advice on. I'm currently editing a project in Premiere Pro CS3 using the Cineform intermediate codec (the video was shot in HDV--Canon HV30--imported using AspectHD). Everything is working fine.
    However, I'd like to export some of the video of this project off to a portable hard drive to physically hand over to someone who will be importing it into After Effects CS3 (on a completely different hardware system) to spice things up for me--i.e. they are going to make a flashy intro/title for this project.
    Lastly, I would like to re-import her finished video back into Premiere. She does not have the Cineform codec so exporting it as a cineform.avi file is out (I would think--or am I incorrect here?). My question is mainly--what is the best file format to hand over to my AE person AND what is the best file format for my AE person to give back to me to re-import into Premiere and keep it all in HD/HDV 16:9?
    I have no idea if this is a really easy thing, or really challenging. Any thoughts or suggestions are greatly appreciated.
    Bill

    Hi Bill
    well the best person to answer that question is the lady who is doing the afterv fx work for you. only she knows what her system can handle. I would recommend first and foremost uncompressed avi if she is on windows or uncompressed .mov if she is on a mac. otherwise if she cannot handle uncompressed because the file is too big you could give her a quicktime animation. i think the file is a little smaller than uncompressed but i could be wrong. but qt animation is still a big file. you could also render out the video as an image sequence I recommend a TIFF sequence suing LZW compression to keep the file sizes down. give her the image sequence she can add the fx and then she can render out the final product as an image sequence again which you can match up with the audio track on your pc. she can also give you an uncompressed file which you can then render out to cineform.

  • OIM 11.1.1.5 Approval Workflow Issue

    Hi,
    I have installed OIM 11.1.1.5. While self-registration of a user, the request is created and by default assigned to xelsysadm as the request level approver.
    However, when the approver logs in, assigns the organization to the user and approves the request, it is shown that the approval task is completed.
    But the request status doesn't change and remains "Obtaining Request Approval" and thus the user is not created in OIM.
    In SOA server, on checking the logs (soa_server1-diagnostic.log) we found the following error -
    [soa_server1] [ERROR] [] [oracle.soa.bpel.engine.dispatch] [tid: orabpel.engine.pool-5.thread-4] [userId: weblogic] [ecid: ee9b8be672bf5ad0:-72f1c18e:1399f6dc058:-8000-0000000000000108,0:1:100000006] [APP: soa-infra] failed to handle message[[

    Hi ,
    I actually faced the same issue some time back .., it took me almost a week to resolve it ..
    This is happening basically due to incompatible version of wsm-policy-core.jar on your server . Please check all the FMW s/f installed on your server . One of them is incompatible with OIM 11.1.1.5.0 .
    Are you using BIP 11.1.1.6 by any chance .

  • WorkFlow Issues: Appending (not replace) Attendee Field in Calendar List and Email Variables (including .ICS file link)

    Kind of new to attempting any custom development in SharePoint.  Working with 2013 and have the 2013 Workflow Farm setup/working.  I am trying to have a calendar that users can register to appointments via custom list.  I
    have the list that pulls the title into its  own "Event" field as a lookup.  Also have a workflow on the calendar that adds the current user as an attendee and made that field "not required".  I'm trying to accomplish this:
    1) Have the Custom List update the Calendar list attendee field with the username. Currently it wipes out what is there and replaces with the "Created By" name. Tried to set a variable that would put the current attendees in a string
    and just add the current user, then use that variable to update the attendee field.  No luck.  Ultimately if I can understand this enough and get fancy enough, I'd setup a workflow  that can have someone delete their own registration item in
    the custom list and remove only their own name from Attendees...
    2)  Have a workflow kick off an email that sends the registrant the calendar details. Have tried to pipe in variables to get the ICS file (some variation of this )
     If I put the List ID in brackets I get an error about having that and variables in the same code for an email workflow.  In any event I can't really get the email workflow to give any kind of nice piped in values the best looked like this and had
    the wrong date: You registered for  {"results":[{"Id":22,"Value":"Test Event 8"}]} on 1/1/0001 12:00:00 AM

    Hi Jason,
    seems your requirement a bit complex, we forum team may have limited resource regarding this issue.
    you may consider to use infopath for example from this 3rd party article:
    http://www.bizsupportonline.net/infopath2007/programmatically-add-item-sharepoint-calendar-infopath.htm
    or for general example:
    http://office.microsoft.com/en-001/infopath-help/customize-a-sharepoint-list-form-HA101821257.aspx
    the article is to add an item to your calendar list, so then you may need to do wipe or other procedures, by infopath you may add the data as
    you need.
    if should infopath feature may not be possible to use in your environment, i may need to suggest you to open an advisory case to us, by contacting our representative,

  • SRM Process Controlled Workflow Issue - Process Level Agent not shown up

    System: SRM 7.0 (SP09)
    Implemented BADI to determine agents at process level - BADI Definition /SAPSRM/BD_WF_PROCESS_CONFIG
    Configuration: 1 Process Level (Seq 100, Lvl Type A, Resp. Resolver Name: Z_XXXXXX, Task ID 40007954, Decision Type 1)
    When creating the Shopping cart based on the cart value, the agents are determined correctly and process level GUID is created with Agent ID associated.
    something like
    GUID1 - APPR1
    GUID2 - APPR2
    GUID3 - APPR3
    GUID4 - APPR4
    Before "Order" when we do preview of Approval Process, it shows all the approvers in the sequence as expected. As soon as the cart is ordered, the first process level GUID lost its agent thus throwing error saying "Strategy Z_XXXXXX did not determine any approver"
    But when we look at the table /SAPSRM/D_WF_016, the corresponding entires of GUID1 has the agent ID as APPR1.
    The task 40007954 has been GENERALIZED so as the master workflow template 40000014. The same is working in our Dev system but throwing error "Strategy Z_XXXXXX did not determine any approver" in QA system.
    Any input is highly appreciated.

    See the thing is the agents were picked up & saved in the table /SAPSRM/D_WF_016 in the process level BADI. The first process level guid doesn't get processed in the RESP_RESOLVER BADI. I put the break point and can see the agents were picked up & saved in Process Level BADI.
    The funny part is it is working just fine in the Dev system. Secondly, when we do BOB for the same user (requester), it picks up the first level approver without the error.
    Meaning, If USER1 shops for himself (Creator & Requester are same), we encounter this error. If USER2 shops for USER1, then the corresponding approvers were picked up correctly without the error. USER1 & USER2 have same authorizations in SU01D (USER2 is copy of USER1, so no authorization issues). Approvers determination is based on the requester.
    Somewhere, we miss the settings. Don't know where though.

  • Linear workflow issues with Media Encoder CC 2014

    I'm using After Effects CC 2014 and doesn't seem to be the option anymore to export via AE to H264. There used to be a button in the preferences to enable outdated codecs... not there anymore with CC 2014. So... I added my renders into Media Encoder. The problem is that it is not calculating my project working in Linear Workflow so all my renders are very dark & wrong colors.
    Anyone find a work around for this? is there a button in Media Encoder that I need to switch on for linear workflow?

    I've been validating in QT, but per your comment I opened up in VLC player as well. VLC player does playback the correct color. I attached SS of same lossless rendered video from AE open in AE, QT, VLC, and then the rendered H264 in QT & VLC  from AME in one screen shot. You can see that the H264 file from AME is always just a little bit off when opened in QT or Preview mode (OSX) or uploaded to Vimeo. The rendered H264 file is just the lossless file being encoded into H264 via AME.
    That's great that VLC player will playback the correct color, but when uploading to Vimeo, the color shifts as well during playback. I've never had this issue when rendering to H264 directly from AE before. I'm a little new to AME so I'm not sure if there is a setting I am missing or is there a limitation to the H264 codec where I've never noticed the slight color shift? Is there anyway to get a H264 file that will play back via Vimeo/QT without the color shift?

  • Workflow issue with Bridge and everything else

    Short and sweet. Well, not really.
    I use windows - so as a result, for some reason unknown to man (after a decade of waiting), I still cannot see "previews" of most, if not all of any adobe software in the windows dialogue boxes.
    think PDF's and the registry hacks we have to do to "enable" previews. But on a mac I can?
    So I have to use bridge - a lot.
    Now when I have a linked image in illustrator (or whatever) and choose "reveal in bridge" it will hunt and drill down through a multitude of folders and display the image in it's native folder - which I can then open in photoshop for instance - edit it - and Illustrator will detect the change and update. Awesome.
    But aside from running a script to send a batch job to a program, it really doesn't "do" anything else that one would expect a "bridge" to do;
         I cannot create a "project" portfolio that would track a client project and all it's related documents.
         Or collaborate with a team.
         I cannot have non destructive edits of a document (such as using an instance of a file like lightroom does) - or "send copy to photoshop" and have Bridge stack the results.
         I cannot combine and tag collections of documents (make a database of stuff).
         I cannot ask Bridge to tell me which documents have placed documents, or (vice versa) which documents are placed into other documents - that would be so cool.
              imagine being able to select a jpeg or psd file and have the option to "Find documents using this file"
              or looking at a "project" and having a list of all first level documents with all their subsequent "placed content" listed all drop down expandable
    So my beef today is that I finally spent an hour messing about thinking I had something "wrong" and went through Bridge CS6 with a fine tooth comb trying to find out if anything had changed.
    and nope - it still doesn't behave as one would think it would.
    Currently, I have some documents that require monthly changes to images, which for the most part came from one photo shoot, and all have essentially the same perspective, appearance, lighting and shading, but all different products and I have a folder of "preformatted images". So monthly I really only need to update the images, and a bit of text. Being posters, InDesign whines a bit for vector art manipulation, so I stick to Illustrator for this job.
    But in Illustrator, I cannot choose another image to replace my linked image - without either;
         a: (reveal in bridge), select new replacement image - place as a new image, which then needs to be manipulated as the "old" image was, "remaking" all the adjustments, and then finally deleting the original linked image.
         b: (reveal in bridge) keep bridge open on the image I need (and it's name), go back to illustrator to open the "relink" windows dialogue and "blindly" browse till I find the image I want as shown in bridge.
         c: simply relink and browse blindly to find a file you can't see a preview of and guess, or drag and drop, or all the other non practical ways to replace the image.
    Option B gives the desired end result where the image I have in a clipping mask, buried in a document in a certain way, with certain effects, is simply replaced without impacting anything else.
         But this takes quite some time when there are a lot of images.
    So Bridge and its promised workflow functionality still isn't living up to it's purpose exactly.
    Bridge isn't bridging.
    With indesign, it's the same issue - you can't "relink" by revealing in bridge, choosing a "replacement" image and "update"
    Maybe a "relink with Bridge" choice in the Links menu?
    and in bridge, since Illustrator triggered the request, a button appears to "Replace" - once you finish browsing and highlighting the replacement image you need, just click it and it's done.
    So two issues -
    Why can't previews of adobe files be shown in windows explorer (still)?
         if they did, I'd really have no use for Bridge.
    Why isn't bridge actually communicating with the apps connecting to it?
    - and yes, I understand that I cannot ask bridge to go find a placed file and replace it with "this" file, but when illustrator "asks" for "this", bridge should be able to "respond" and give "that" since the app initiated the request.
    Bridge should be a workflow tool as advertised - it should literally be able to be a proper workflow hub for all things adobe (and be able to catalogue and track all design file type previews - corel files, cad, 3d, etc)... but as it stands it's just a glorified windows explorer without workflow options.
    Bridge hasn't been altered in years, and it's still lingering around - I think - so that we can simply see thumbnails, rather than just allowing each adobe program to make "previews" windows needs.
    I can change metadata in windows, I can use freeware to change it extensively.
    So aside from the "open in" options and the ability to browse all adobe file types, what's the point?

    I couldn't read all through your post as I am jetting out of here.
    Buy this:
    http://www.fastpictureviewer.com/codecs/
    and install it. It's relatively cheap. Screen shot is from Windows Explorer.
    Handles ID, PSD, etc., files as well. Though the preview uses greeked text for the most part for the ID files.
    Take care, Mike
