WS14000044 Completion by Purchaser follwed by WS10000129 One Step approval

Hi Folks,
I have activated the WS14000044 Completion by Purchaser workflow and it works just fine.
My problem is that the approval WF WS10000129 One Step approval does not start automatically when the buyer has completed the SC.
The SC creator has to go to the SC and click on change and then order it before it goes to the approver.
Can this be true?
Thanks in advance,
Thomas

  • WS14000088 one-step Approval of contracts

    Dear SRM Friends,
    I have problem with finding the right approver for my workflow 14000088 one-step approval of contracts.
    The process is easy:
    My purchaser with user role: SAP_EC_BBP_PURCHASER should create the contract. Afterwards my Manager1 with user role: SAP_BBP_STAL_PURCHASER_MANAGER should approve this contract.
    Beside I have to say, that my Manager stands above serval organisational units  - but he is the only one - who has this role SAP_BBP_STAL_PURCHASER. And in my workflow this role ist determined.
    So I aspect that my Manager1 will be displayd in Approval Preview - but it didn´t. Instead of that there appears the Manager2 of the organisational unit of my Purchaser.
    But how can that be? Manager2 did´nt have the role SAP_BBP_STAL_PURCHASER.
    I have checked following transaktions:
    bbppd with BUS2000113_
    with result:
    workflow item:
    workitem - ID: 79856
    Task: WS14000088
    Text: one-step approval of contracts
    Status: started
    Statustext: in process

    Discription: First Approval
    Node ID: 000000092
    Agent. "Blank"
    User: "Blank"
    State / Worktitem:No workitem found
    Created at: "Blank"
    Finished at: "Blank"
    Discription: New Approval
    OOCU ( Assign Agents ):
    WS14000088
    Role: SAP_BBP_STAL_PURCHASE_MANAGER
    SWDD ( Workflow Builder ):
    WS14000088
    TS14007969 first approval
    here I wanted to add my Agent "Manager1" but I get following message:
    "general task can be edited by all user"
    PPOSABBP ( organisational Model ):_
    Attributes for my Manager1
    User Role: SAP_BBP_STAL_PURCHASER_MANAGER
    Transaction Type: Contracts / ID: CT_PROC_TY / Value: PCTR
    So - I don´t have any ideas what to do.
    I would be glad If someone have any ideas.....
    Best Regards

    Hi,
    The approver for one-step approval of contracts is determined from the org structure as the manager of the user that creates the contract. So this is working correctly for you since manager2 is the org manager. The check on the agents of the task also occurs and since this is set to general, then manager2 will always be selected. Basically the intersection between the agents of the task and the org unit manager will be selected. If you change the agent of the task to have the SAP_BBP_STAL_PURCHASER role, then you will get an error when creating the contract since no approver will be found.
    If you want to have the approver determined in a different way then you would need to use the n-step approval badi workflow for contract, WS14000148. This will allow you to determine the approver using your own code.
    By the way, if you want to change the agents for the task, then display the task in PFTC. Goto
    Additional Data ->
    Agent Assignment ->
    Maintain ->
    Click on Attrributes ->
    Select radio button -> Forwarding not allowed ->
    Now Select from the menu -> Agent Assignment -> Create
    You should now be able to add a role.
    Hope this helps.
    Kind regards,
    Siobhan

    Hi George,
    The creation of the SC stays the same. Only the event linkage and the start conditions determine which workflow will be started.

  • One step approval workflow

    Hi All,
    I have added a step in one step approval workflow to check shop on behalf.
    When a person shop's on behalf of a manager, and 1 step approval is triggered, i want the approver to be the manager.
    But what is happening is that Manager's Manager is getting the workitem!
    My query is that :if A shop's for B, the approver should be B for the shopping cart. How can i achieve this????
    Anybody knows what needs to be done in this scenario?
    Thanks & Regards,
    San

    Hi San,
    In addition to Usman's views also look at the below mentioned points :
    1. In your org. structure if you have named somebody else as the head of the department for that org. unit, it will go to that person for approval.
    2. And there is no point in taking approval from the same guy for whom you are shopping on behalf. In such a case that guy can himself create a shopping cart.
    Looks like there is some mis / lack of understanding about the correct client requirements.
    But there are few work arounds you define this guy as the substitute for his manager.Then either of them can approve the shopping cart.
    Or.. don't make any body as H.O.D of org. unit and define the approval agent in the work flow builder using SWDD txn and let the approver will be taken from there.
    Hope this makes you more clear and helps in resolving your issue. Clarifications are welcome.

  • Difference between one step approval and N-step approval?

    Hi Experts,
    Can anyone tell what is major difference between one step approval and N step approval?
    I guess its only one person will  approve incase  one step  approval and where as in the N-step approval a shopping cart can be approved by many  users under some prerequistes right??
    can some one provide me some hints on this.....
    how does it make a difference in workflows and how to mantain the settings for this in the SPRO. for this one to setup  a one-step and N-step approvals.  what are points to be taken care while setting up this?
    Please can some one clarify me on this

    Hi,
    1 step approval - Number of approvals will be 1
    n step - number of approvals  greater then 2(since std approval workflow present till 2 level)
    The general customising steps for Workflows  apply to both of them (like SWU3 customising.event linkage etc) but other then that for,
    1 step approval -
    -->Need to activate the starting conditions
    -->Agent assignment to be done seperately for the Approval task
    (Also the N step workflow can be used as 1 step workflow with number of approvals being set to 1 through the Logic in the badi.)
    N step approval -
    -->to be implemented through BADI BBP_WFL_APPROV_BADI .This BADi actually determines the Agents/approvers for the workflow.
    -->As per  my exp,this workflow is very unstable and for few  updates,you may have to apply number of notes(e.g. Approval status not updated properly,graphical preview not visible properly etc)

  • How could I completely get rid of application in ONE step?

    Say I installed 10 apps from the phone, in the next sync w/ computer, they got sync'ed into my iTunes. After a few days I deleted 5 of them from the phone, but they showed up again after the next sync -- they were copied from the computer back to the phone.
    The only way I have found out to do the deletion in one step is to delete apps from iTunes program "while iPhone is connected", that is a pain in the butt because I usually only sync it once every 2-3 weeks. Every time I sync, I need to spend a lot of tiem cleaning those apps which were deleted on the phone, from iTunes program.
    Is there any way I can setup my iPhone or my iTunes, so that an app will be considered DELETED when I do that from the phone?

    Here's what you want to do:
    1. In iTunes (with your iPhone plugged in), choose your iPhone under Device on the left.
    2. Click Applications Tab
    3. Choose Sync Applications and Selected Applications
    (If you choose All Applications, you will get the behavior you don't want)
    Now when you delete an APP from your iPhone, it will remain in iTunes, but will be unchecked
    from the list and will not be put back on the iPhone when you sync.
    Viola!

  • One step purchase order approval - Trigger only in certain cases.

    Hi,
        I want to trigger the one step workflow approval for Purchase Orders only in ceraitn cases.
    When the PO is created from a shopping cart it has to be automatically approved. In other cases the workflow has to be triggerred.
    I tried setting the no_further_approval flag to 'X' in the Approval BADI but did not work.
    Any Suggestions?
    Does the BADI BBP_WFL_APPROV_BADI work for one step approval or is it only for the n step?
    Is it better to manipulate the start conditions?
    Any help is appreciated.
    Joe Vellaiparambil

    Hi
    If the workflow is not working as expected, refer to SAP Note 322526, Analysis for workflow problems.
    You should go with making the start conditions work, as you are aware that only 1 level Approval is required. Try making changes in the start conditions by using transaction - SWB_PROCUREMENT.
    Note ->This BADI - BBP_WFL_APPROV_BADI is only recommended for N-step dynamic approval workflow. I don't think you need this BADI as the first alternative.
    <u>Refer to few links as well.</u>
