1.How to release workflow ?

Hi friends,
1.How to release workflow ?
Please give the details of release process & type of release !
Thanking you.
Subash

Hi,
I believe that, you created a Workflow that you want to Transport to QA & PRD, right.
The Workflow Template will store in the Workbench Request and event mapping & the activation will stored in the customizing Request.
While Creating & Activating the workflow itself this will ask for a Transport Request.
Then you have release the both request.
First move Workbench, then customizing Request.

How to release PRs through workflows without setting release procedures?

Dear all,
         I am involved in overall purchase requisition workflow.I have copied standard workflow WS20000077.
         For overall PR release,I will be using the standard task TS20000159 which uses BOR as BUS2105 and method SINGLERELEASE.This method is defined with RELEASECODE as mandatory parameter.
         My functional consultant wants me to get release codes from ztable based on plant and PR value without setting release groups and release code in SPRO transaction.
         So,I have created an entry in ztable for release code with data element FRGCO as in T16FC standard table with SAP log on id of agent ,plant and PR values.I have created a custom background method to pick the appropriate release code from ztable based on PR value and plant.The picked release code now can be passed to he above standard task.Is this a right procedure for PR release?Please correct me if I am wrong ,as this is the first time I am involved in release workflows, for which I will be grateful.
Thanks and regards,
S.Suresh

PO Release Workflow Problem

Hello,
This is regarding PO release workflow(WS20000075).
I fail to understand as to how I can trigger workflow on realising PO
from ME29N, though using SWUS (Test Workflow) I am receving message
in the sapoffice mail.I am not really able to link the application with the workflow.
Secondly I dont understand why the second task i.e., Release Purchase Order Effected' does not trigger when I test the workflow.The message i receive is 'Please release purchase order no ....' and not 'Purchase order Released' when I test the workflow using SWUS.
Kindly advice.
Regards,
Sumit

The deactivation is happening as there is some error in the instances. Please change the settings in SWE2 for WS20000075 entry and change the field of Feedback after error as Do Not Change Linkage. The error might be due to some authorization issue please check from SWEL and analyse accordingly.
Thanks

Payment Release Workflow

Hi Folks,
         We are working on Payment Release workflow in AR module.
         Once the invoice is posted, workflow is able to block the payment, but not sending mails to the agent for approval.
         For testing, i have entered a dummy userid as the agent and checking for the mails.
         How can we debug or monitor to check why the agent is not getting mails in SBWP.
         Pls suggest how to solve the problem.
Thanks in advance,
Shyam.

Hello,
Okay, let me correct that for you:
"We are working on Payment Release workflow in AR module.
Once the invoice is posted, workflow is able to block the payment, but not sending WORKITEMS to the agent for approval.
For testing, i have entered a dummy userid as the agent and checking for the WORKITEMS.
How can we debug or monitor to check why the agent is not getting WORKITEMS in SBWP.
Pls suggest how to solve the problem."
Have you looked in SWI5 to see if it is listed for the user there? Check that there are no excluded agents.
The solution is likely that you haven't set the task to General Task, as already suggested.

The task TS20000166 in PO release workflow( WS20000075 ) is not terminating

Dear Experts ,
The task TS20000166 in PO release workflow( WS20000075 ) is not terminating after release the PO .
In the WS20000075 ,the event RELEASESTEPCREATED is triggeing and move to the next step.The next step is 'Release of purchase order' , the task TS20000166 is not terminating after release of PO .So Workflow is not move to next step i.e TS20000168.
I have noted TS20000166 is having three terminating event ( RELEASED,RESET,SIGNIFICANTLYCHANGED ) but still it is not terminating.
Is it Clear.If you want more details please let me know .Please help me.
Thanks and Regards
Rajesh

Dear Raj,
Please check agent assignment. And also check graphical mode error and check how many events fire one after one. Because for rejecting there is one more workflow u have to activate but i dont think so u have to activate it after realease . In agent assign ment check workflow with normal agent assignment dont use release stretargy then check it again if it is working fine then it must be problem of agent assignment step.

Payment Release Workflow for PO invoice

Hi folks,
              Need to develop Payment Release Workflow for PO related invoice which are triggered via MIRO.
              Can i use Business object BUS2081 for the purpose ?
              WS00400012 is the standard workflow for the same purpose for NON PO invoices.
              Is there any standard Workflow for the PO Invoices. Do we need to trigger this as BTE ?
              Please suggest.
                    Thanks in advance,
                    Shyam.

Did you get an answer about this situation ? I am trying to do the same thing by FI or by MM and I'm worrying if we can to do by Standard SAP. In FI I'm trying to do via spro:
SAP Customizing Implementation Guide=>Financial Accounting=>Accounts Receivable and Accounts Payable=>Business Transactions=>Release for Payment
Did you remember how can you get the solution?

Payment Release workflow WS00400012

Hi,
I am using payment release workflow WS00400012,in configuration I have given subworkflows WS00400011,WS00400021 & Ws00400022 with different amounts.But when i post the document it only goes to one level ie.WS00400011, I checked workflow WS00400012 there in step 82 , one level subworkflow (WS00400011) is given in task, so the system takes only one level of release irrespective of amount of document.
My Question : How to call different release level in workflow based on amount.
Is any changes are required in standard workflow WS00400012 for having amount wise release level.
Thanks
Nishant Mittal

Hi Nishant ,
Why dont you have a look at the release authorizations in SPRO. Try to give varying amounts.
Meanwhile , let me have a look. Will revert by Monday -21.08.2006.

Regarding PR Release workflow:

My pr release workflow is 8 levels.
1st level is working fine( getting workitem to sap inbox of 1st level approver and releasing from his inbox)
when it comes to second level it is automatically releasing from me54n.(am not getting any workitem to sap inbox of 2nd level of approver)
and it is not showing in workflow log also.(total skipping second level)
3rd level is working fine.
can you pls tell me the solution.
thanx in advance.

hi
thanx for ur reply.
in workflow log i saw 1 st level succesfully completed.(this is loop 1 in workflow log)
then after is going 3rd level(this is loop 2 in workflow log)
total 2nd level is skipping(is not showing in workflow log)
because 2nd level is automatically releasing in me54n so it is going directly to 3rd level as a loop 2.
pls check below attached docuent.
That is the code i used inside business object to getting agents.
first agent getting correct only -1st level
second agent is skipping when debugging time(because 2nd level is automaticcay released in ME54N)
third agent is getting correct only- it is showing as a second level
so pls tell me a solution how to control automatic release in me54n for 2nd level?????
best regards,

Idoc will trigger after purchase order release workflow

Hi Workflow Guru,
I have a requirement to configure Purchase Order release workflow. I am configure the same its working fine, but my client requirement is when the purchase order finaly release one IDOC will be trigger and the document will send to other system. We have PI for Interface.
I want to add new activity step in my workflow template to trigger a Idoc after final release.
Please give me a idea , how to do this.
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Ranjan

Hello,
Use the standard IDoc LOIPRO01. Have a look at program RCCLORD. use it in the method of the business object you are using.
You'll need to configure the idocs and partner profiles as normal.

PR item level Release WorkFlow

Hi Experts,
I have activated PR item level release WorkFlow WS00000038. My MM consultant has configured release strategy with ME51N. The Work flow works fine On releasing it sends notification work item to initator but on release Refusal it don't send notification work item to initator. Can anyone guide me how to resolve this issue.
TS00007986 SINGLERELEASE
4 Outcomes of release
1) Positive Confirmation
2) Negative Confirmation
3) Confirmation Release Cancelled
4) Purchase requisition item significantly changed
Now 1) posative confirmation is working fine.
but when we reject release then in that case also the workflow log it is going in undefined output that is significantly changed.
can anyone help me to resolve this issue.
Regards,
Hari

Hi Hari,
When you reject a PR, 2 events are getting triggered (Significantly changed and rejection_started). You check this in Transaction SWEL by rejecting PR.
The reason why output is going to Significantly changed branch is in SWEL you can see that 1st Significantly changed event is getting triggered and then Rejection_started.
Solution1: Deactivate the Significantly changed event in termination events tab.
Solution2: Create an attribute(Database object) for your business object. This attribute should be of type EBAN-BANPR. Check if BANPR = 08 and then send the rejection mail.
I hope this clears your doubt.
Please Revert back to me if you have any queries.

Error in Payment Release Workflow

Hi friends,
I am working on the Payment Release workflow.I am using the standard WF for this.But my workflow is throwing an error if i am not maintaining the SPRO setting "Assign Release Approval Paths for Release for Payment".
<b>The error is It is not able to determine the Subworkflow.</b>Is it mandatory to do this setting.If so then we have to maintain a release group for all the vendors but my client is saying that he dont want to do this. Kindly suggest how to proceed..
Rgds

Please do not add new questions in an existing thread. Two good reasons for this are that it prevents us from upping the food program donation from SAP (since you can not award any "good reply" points), and that it is easier for people to find previously answered questions if we limit ourselves to one topic per thread.
Now, to your question: I believe this would be solved by only defining release approval paths for specific release approval groups. Then, for those vendors that don't have a release approval group there should be no blocking. I am however not sure about it, and if you have tried this and it failed (you don't say whether you have tried) - perhaps a workable alternative would be to use a particular release approval group for these vendors and define a release approval for these where the clerks can release any amount.

How to release a object that is set to obselete?

Hi All,
In my development system i need to develop a workflow using BUS1007/BUS1008.
But it is set to obselete.
Can anyone tell me How to release a object that is set to obselete?
Thanks and regards,
Raj

Hello,
As per the documentation on Business object builder on help.sap.com,
Obsolete object types/object type components show that the functions are being discontinued and replaced with other functions that are incompatible.
Object types or object type components being discontinued and designated by SAP as obsolete are still supported in the change release and the next release. The old functions and the new functions are available in parallel for this period.
Incompatible changes are included by SAP in a central release note.
So, it is better that you look out for other business objects. I am not sure, but I think you can use the BO KNA1 in place of 'BUS1007' and LFA1 for BUS1008 as the key fields are same for both the business objects.
Hope this will help.

Samson

PO release workflow - regarding.

Hello !
   I am into the development of PO release workflow.
   I use custom task for releasing the purchase order(BUS2012-SINGLE RELEASE).
   I have configured RELEASE STEP CREATED and CHANGED event to trigger the workflow
   When purchase order is created, workflow triggers via RELEASE STEP CREATED event and go to the first approver.When first approver has released, the work item goes to second approver via CHANGED event and not via RELEASE STEP CREATED.
   Following are terminated events , I have configured :
WIOBJECT_ID     BOR Object Type     BUS2012     RELEASED     Purchase Order Release PO
WIOBJECT_ID     BOR Object Type     BUS2012     RELEASESTEPCREATED     Purchase Order Release Step Created
   Please suggest how to make the workflow to re-trigger via RELEASE STEP CREATED instead of CHANGED event once the first approver have released it.
Thanks and regards,
S.Suresh

Hello Gautam Maini !
             Thank you so much for your reply.
             I have already activated RELEASESTEPCREATED event at SWEC.
             The problem I face is that the work item of first agent does not completes though the PO is released.I have configured terminating event as RELEASED.Due to buffer problem or some other reason, the terminating event's binding properties looks so contradictory.I have posted the screen shot of the same at
http://img19.mediafire.com/205f136394986473f8b76798935c80b1f5794a496734421d23384bb33713f8886g.jpg
             In the table , SWFDEVINST, RELEASED event and SIGNIFICANTLY CHANGED event is updated after the PO release by first agent.
              Once the PO is released by first approver , CHANGED event gets fired instead of RELEASED event.(observed at SWEL).
              At workflow log, I get message as follows :
                          Message Text         Execution interrupted
                          Exception                0
                          Error Type               0
                          Area                 SWF_RUN
                          Message                611
              Please suggest solution for the problem for which I will be grateful.
Thanks and regards,
S.Suresh
