Thanks and Regards,
Gaurav

Hi,
Standard Workflow for Purchase Order is WS20000075(Access it via PFTC_DIS Tcode). The business Object for Purchase order is BUS2012(access it via SWO1 Tcode).

Creating workflow for purchase order release.

Hi friends
I want step by step detail about creation of workflow for purchase order release..
After release purchase order it will goes to the two level of approval..
after that the workflow should be completed...
how can i develope the workflow for that scenario..
Thanks
Gowrishankar

Hi Gowrishankar,
You can get step by step workflow for PO using standard workflow
Release of Purchase Order :WS20000075
And for two levels of approvals you have to configure in SPRO the path is
Purchase Order:
SPRO> Material Management->Purchasing->/Purchase order-->Release procedure ---> Procedure with classification ---> set up procedure with classification ---> double click on Release strategies and Workflow.
If you don't know about this configuration, you have to confirm with your MM consultant.
Thanks and Regards,

Workflow for Purchase order

Hi,
Can anyone let me know the steps to activate workflow for purchase order so that workflow will be triggered after creation of PO and for any modification done after release.
What are the customization and tcodes required for PO workflow and is there any technical involvement requires.
Thanks in advance!
Karun

Hi
I took it from sdn.
WORKFLOW FOR PO RELEASE PROCEDURE
Steps involved are :
1) SPRO > MM > Purchasing > Purchase Order > Release Procedure for Purchase Orders > Define Release Procedure for Purchase Orders > Release Codes > here assign Workflow indicator as "1" against each Release Code
2) SPRO > MM > Purchasing > Purchase Order > Release Procedure for Purchase Orders > Define Release Procedure for Purchase Orders > Workflow > Here against each release code assign OT as US and respective User ID's for Release Codes.
3) Go to OOCU > here under MM, go to MM-PUR,
4) Click on "activate event linking"
5) Go for "WS 20000075" and for BUS2012 RELEASESTEPCREATED, click on Detailed view button. Activate "Event linkage activated" and also activate "Enable usage of event queue"
and Save.
6) Click on "Assign agents" and proceed all above steps.
BUS2012 is the relevant business object and Releasestep created is the event for the same.
7) Check SWETYPV transaction for the WF you have activated for BUS2012 and confirm.
Test the same by creating a PO and check the SBWP for SAP Mail of respective Users

Standard n-step approval workflow for Purchase Order in sap 4.7?

Hello friend,
In SAP 4.7 there is any standard template for n-step approval workflow for Purchase Order.
thanks in advance.

Hi AM,
there is no std template for n-step approvals but for Single Release.
What you could do is create a custom one as per the number of approvals for PO.
Also note a PO Release Strategy can handle only 8 levels of approval.
Hope it helps.

Workflow for Purchase Order Form?

I am setting up a paperless Purchase Order system at my company.
A Purchase Order form has been created in Acrobat with spaces for 4 digital signatures.
There is a network filesystem where a copy of the form can be stored and completed copies of the form placed. Preferably, a copy of the form will be retrieved from the server, then emailed through the signature process.
The Workflow:
1. A user obtains a copy of the PO form, fills it out, digitally signs the form and sends it to their supervisor for approval by email (preferred) or by placing the form in a shared directory.
2. The supervisor digitally signs the PO and sends it to their Manager.
3, The Manager digitally signs the PO and sends it to the approval authority.
4. The approval authority digitally signs the PO and forwards the form to the purchasing department for placement.
There are about 100 users, 20 supervisors, 5 Managers and 1 Approval Authority.
How would this workflow be implemented? What I have found so far is examples where 1 form is distributed to a number of people, filled out and returned, collated and reviewed. I been unable to find any examples of this type of workflow.
Any suggestions?
Dennis

It's not that difficult. I think there is only one entry for the object and event you use in your workflow.
If you would have done a little searching in this forum you would have had your answer already.

Workflow for Purchase order creation!!!

Hi,
I am new for SAP Workflow. I have a requirement to create workflow for PO creation. Once the approval of 2 levels, then PO should be released. Could you please help me to do this. Please provice me the step by step procedure or relevent materials links.
Thanks in Advance!!

Hi,
Get yourself familiar with terms like PO release strategy, etc. This has lots of material in SAP help. You might also take a look to SAP MM workflow scenarions document - it has documentation of PR release, but the idea is quite similar with POs.
You can also google "PO release strategy in SAP", and you should find some step by step instructions.
In general, lots of things can be done purely by configuring in SPRO and not that much WF development (if any) is required unless you have some specific requiremenets.

Activating conditions for Purchase Order workflows in EBP

Dear SRMer's,
I am facing the following problem:
System Info :SRM Server 5.5, ECC 6.0
Scenario 1:
All start conditions for Purchase Order in SAP Business Workflow are activated.
I created a direct procurement shopping cart (DP) in SRM browser and ordered it, then I logged in as proffessional purchaser, changed the Price and processed the DP PO.
When Ordering, the follow on Documents are created, but says the PO is waiting for approval. When I check for this PO in the Backend R/3 system in the Me22n (Display PO changes), I don't see the PO.
Scenario 2:
All Start conditions for Purchase Order in SAP Business Workflow are de-activated
I created another direct procurement shopping cart (DP2) in SRM browser and ordered it, then I logged in as proffessional purchaser, changed the Price and processed the DP2 PO (Status is held).
When Ordering, I get the Warning message, no workflow found, contact system administrator.
Please advice what needs to be configured for the PO to be ordered successfully.
Thanks in advance
Raj

Hi,
In your scenario 1, if system is saying that there the PO has to be approved, it means that you have managed the user that will receive the workitem..
Activating all PO WF is not a solution as in standard there are two many cases activated (amount, role, limit...)
I propose you to first activate only the 0 step WF and to overwrite the code inside
Just code that every PO modification should trigger O step WF thus it will be more simple to test it.
Later on, if you want to implement more complex starting conditions, you just have to modify the WF content...
Kind regards,
Yann

Release for purchase order for workflow

explain me about the release procedure for purchase order i am comfortable with all steps but for the last step were we will be defining the settings for workflow

It's all fine and dandy that you want to be polite and reply to every reply with a "thanks for your reply", but it isn't very informative. In fact, I'm leaning towards calling it SPAM, but that is perhaps going a bit too far. Such replies do not add one bit of information, they just mark the thread as having contents added since I last visited, and wastes my time as I look at the thread to see what new information has come up.
At the risk of sounding rude, could you please quit your habit and instead mark the question as answered if any of the answers solved your problem (handing out forum points where appropriate)? If none of the replies solved your problem, then please tell us how far they got you and what's stopping you now.
Thank you.

To download preconfigured smartform package, please:
1. Go to http://service.sap.com/installations, select tab "download".

SMART FORMS, you can find available preconfigured smartform versions.
Here you can also download the PO smartform.
Hope this will help.

For Invoice you need to complete the customizing under LIV in SPRO- for Invoices received via EDI.
