Absence request status = "Work in Progress" ?? in SSHR

Hi exprts
we tried to post an absnece request (ex. holiday). The status is set to "Work in Progress". The approver is also nominated. But he did not get the request for approval.
Question: What can be the reason.
Now if w click on yellow pencile for update and submit it the approver will get the notification, and the status is set to "Pending for Approval".
Question: Have somebody facing this issue, and what is your suggestion.
Thx
mehdi

Solution:
1. You request for holiday, than cliking on Next -next, Next.
2. before submit you are clicking on Home button
3. A message window appear(the changes you mad.......)
4. Click on Ok
4. Comming back to your Summary page and you see: The Approval Status is set to Work in Progress and Absnece status is set to confirmed. In this case you must sendyour request again.
That was the reason and solution.

Cancelling a absence request haas not changed the status by the user

Hi experts,
An absence request has been cancelled,. Looking in Status Monitor, i will see that the reuest has been cancelled, but the user see the status stay on "Pendig For Approval". Normally the user will see the Absence Category set to Cancelled, but not "Pending For Approval". The reason is unknown to me. Thus i need your support.
Thanks in advance
Mehdi

Just to confirm my understanding, are you saying that:
1) Employee requested an Absence through SSHR Leave of Absence
2) An administrator queried the absence in the Workflow Status Monitor and Cancelled it
3) Now that absence is showing to the Employee as 'Pending Approval'
Is that right? You mention 'Normally the user will see...'. When you say 'normally' what is the behaviour you expect?
If I've understood you correct this is the behaviour I would expect: cancelling a workflow does not change the status from 'Pending For Approval' and it definitely does not change the Absence Category on the absence. Cancelling an absence via this route isn't really recommended because - as you are seeing - it gets stuck. It's best to get the approver to reject the absence instead.
To remove this cancelled absence, take a look at these Oracle Support articles:
Unable To Remove Cancelled Workflow Item Related To LOA Transaction [ID 1123714.1]
How to Purge Obsolete Workflow Runtime Data (FNDWFPR) for HR Workflow Completed Processes [ID 237564.1]

Regarding status in Work In Progress ALV Format Report.

Dear All,
I am creating ALV Report for Work In Progress for PP-module. I want to display Object Status i.e. field STAT table JEST
so for doing this I am Bringing objnr (object number) from table AUFK in my ITAB (it_so) by comparing AUFK-AUFNR
with my ITAB (it_so) AUFNR, then bringing corresponding STAT(object status) from JEST by comparing JEST-OBJNR
with it_so-objnr. Now , the problem is that I am getting only 1st STAT value(I0001). but there are so many STAT For
OBJNR (OR000010018621).
what do do, how to bring all data (STAT) comparing with it_so-objnr.

Hi,
Check the code below:
REPORT ztest_00000002.
DATA : BEGIN OF itab OCCURS 0,
        aufnr LIKE caufv-aufnr,
        objnr LIKE caufv-objnr,
       END OF itab.
DATA :BEGIN OF itab1 OCCURS 0,
       objnr LIKE caufv-objnr,
       stat LIKE jest-objnr,
     END OF itab1.
SELECTION-SCREEN BEGIN OF BLOCK b1 WITH FRAME TITLE text-001.
PARAMETERS : sp_aufnr LIKE caufv-aufnr.
SELECTION-SCREEN END OF BLOCK b1.
SELECT aufnr objnr FROM caufv INTO TABLE itab
WHERE aufnr = sp_aufnr.
IF itab[] IS NOT INITIAL.
SELECT objnr stat FROM jest INTO TABLE itab1
for ALL entries in itab
                    WHERE objnr = itab-objnr.
ENDIF.
LOOP AT itab1.
WRITE : / itab1-objnr, itab1-stat.
ENDLOOP.

Absence Request Workflow

Hello fellow Sap'ers.
I have an issue in a client which is the following. Due to an error in customizing for a few days, the absence requests created in ESS did not initiate the workflow for the request. We were able to find out the problem and fix it, but the problem is that meanwhile all absence requests created in this interval of days are "stuck" and don't appear in the task list for the aprovers. I have checked and the requests are created (PTREQ* tables) are all ok, the request is created with the status SENT and only has the version 1 record.
So my question is, how can i replicate the natural process, creating the workflow process for these requests ? I have tried with FM SAP_WAPI_START_WORKFLOW but i think i'm missing something in the containers, has i get an error.
The task we are using is WS90200027 which is probably a copy of the standard task for the Absence requests.
Thanks for all the help in advance.
Cheers.

Thanks for the reply, but we have solved this in another way. Using the program RPTARQUIATEST as a working base, i was able to find out that due to customizing when a request is in SENT status, a new send won't iniciate a workflow process, so i needed to reset the status to NEW and generate a EXECUTE_SEND event for these requests. Thanks for the help anyway.

ESS deleting an Absence request before approving it.

Hello,
I have problems stopping the ESS Absence Request workflow after the user deletes it before the manager approves.
Reproduction scenario:
- The requestor creates an Absence request.
... the workflow (a copy of WS12300111) is instantiated
... the manager of the requestor gets a work item
Now the requestor decides to delete the absence request...
- Requestor deletes the absence request.
The user now gets the information message:
... the ESS application now tries to complete (FM: SAP_WAPI_WORKITEM_COMPLETE) the Work item of the manager.
No administrator found for the task
(By debugging, I found out that this was message 5W 141.)
The result is that the request document is ended with status WITHDRAWN, which is correct, however the workflow has still a READY work item for the manager which he cannot start anymore.
Analysis:
The error message is a little bit weird, because it actually ment that the requestor is not an agent for the work item of the manager.
I could solve this problem by giving the requestors more authorization. When I added SAP_ALL to the requestor, the error does not occur.
The transition table determines:
Documentstatus: SENT
Status transition: DELETE
Workflow control: CONTINUE Continue Workflow
...that's why it start FM: SAP_WAPI_WORKITEM_COMPLETE
I hope you have an answer to my problem.
Kind regards,
Alwin van de Put
(I expected that ESS would make use of events for terminating work items in stead of using SAP_WAPI_WORKITEM_COMPLETE.)

Hello Ravi,
Thank you for answering.
The standard task is a General Task.
The main problem is, that the agent determined in the step (in my case: Expression: &AGENT_0001.AGENTS&) is not the one who will complete the task.
This is the case when the Requester deletes (withdraw) the absence request, than the ESS function module tries to complete the work item of the Manager with the user of the Requester.
We could solve this problem by giving all requesters the following rights:
S_CODE id TCD field SWIA.
But we don't want to give all users rights to transaction SWIA.
Kind regards,
Alwin.

External Sales Order lines remain in Internal Req Requested status

Hi
Customer sales order lines are fulfilled by IR-ISO. When line progresses, it is set to have Internal Req Requested status. A scheduled program runs amd IR are created. However, sales order line status does not change to Internal Req Open. It remains in Internal Req Requested status.
As a work around, workflow is rewound to 'Check ATR Qty' which is customized activity and then status changes to Internal Req Open.
What could be the reason that workflow is not setting the status to Internal Req Open?
Please help.
Regards,
Apps version : 12.0.4

I think you better file this question in the Order Management group because they know the internals of headers, lines, etc. Unless there is something specific to the execution of the workflow process and you would like to modify it. You would have provide more details here.

Alejandro

Update activity status based on Customer request status,

Hello,
I have a requirement to update the status field of a service request activity to Completed when the service request status = closed. Any suggestions?
Thanks,
SKJ

If the field they are updating is in the same object it shouldn't be an issue. If another object needs to be updated then the workflow won't work.
Integration events can be used for this. generate a event and have a external process poll the integration event queue for new events. when received, it can do whatever is necessary via web services.

R12 Payment Process Request Status Report adding extra columns to XML data.

In 11i, we had modified the Preliminary Payment Report to include extra columns ( invoice distributions). In r12 , that report is obsolete and Oracle introduced a new report "Payment Process Request Status Report". This request uses BI Publisher to generate the final report output. I am unable to modify the template since the XML output of the report does not
contain the invoice distribution account data. We need to know how can we modify the XML data to include the extra columns.
For Funds Disbursement Process ( Payment Instruction File) , Oracle provides IBY_FD_EXTRACT_EXT_PUB extensibility package to construct custom XML element structure that can be added to the payment XML extract generated by Oracle Payments. Do we have something similar for this report ? Are there any other options available ?
Thanks

Hi
The same package "IBY_FD_EXTRACT_EXT_PUB" works for payment process request status report also. Please add the logic to get the distribution data in this package and you will see the new XML tags in this report also.
Hope this helps.

REQUEST STATUS YELLOW WHILE MONITOR STATUS GREEN - BI7

Hellow,
I try to load data with 0CO_OM_OPA_1, 0CO_OM_WBS_1 into Z cubes which are similar to the business content cubes 0OPA_C11 and 0WBS_C11 respectively.
ETL is BW3.5 (transfer rule and update rules). When I look at the request in the monitor, I see that everything is green but the request status is yellow and not available for reporting. I can change the status to green manually but this is not a good solution for me.
By the way the same load works well with te standart cubes.
I use BI7 but I use BW3.5 business content.
What could be the reason for such problems?
Regards,
Hadar

Hi Hadar,
We have exactly the same proble. Have you found a solution to it? I'm using Datasource 0HR_PT_2 to load data into Infocube ZPT_C01 (a copy of 0PT_C01). The monitor of the infopackage is green. There are no errors whatsoever. The status for the request in the Infocube>Manage is set to yellow and the data is not available for reporting. I can set it manually to green, but as you said yourself, it'd be nice to have an automated wway of doing this. Is there any way around this problem?
Thanks

Absence request workflow does not start

Hello, I have created a workflow for absence request and I configured it in transaction PTARQ for my absence type.
I tried several times making an absence request from portal but the workflow does not start. I have also seen in transaction PTARQ that the request was really made and has status SENT but has no workflow associated.
Any help?
Thanks

Hi Mário,
Check using transaction SWIA to see if the workflow is actually started by the leave creation (if not could be a problem with the event trigger)? If it is started, you should see in SWIA where the workflow stops/breaks down, normally this is due to missing container elements or bindings.
Good luck!

SC Orchestrator Incident Request Status update monitoring

Hi,
Is there a way to set up an incident request status update monitoring with orchestrator ?
SCSM 2012R2 and Orchestrator 2012R2.
I've tried to use "Monitor Object" when IR is updated but it didn't work as I expected. I've extended IR class by adding custom date field named "PendigDate" and need to update these field by running a Runbook with Monitor Object and
Update Object but I did not find any possibility to set up (in Monitor Object) condition for "When IR Status chaged FROM Active TO Pending" as it can be set up in SCSM Workflow but when I try to use workflow I am not able to update
"PendigDate" custom field in IR.

Hi,
please choose your extended Class of Incident in the "Monitoring Object" in Orchestrator, not the original Incident Class

Auto GR/IR for Semi Finished goods in Work in Progress stage.

Dear All,
What are account postings going to happen while issuing semi finished goods from from one process to other process by using Auto GR/IR.
Regards,
Venkat.

Dear sapper2000,
Work in progress:If my understanding is correct,then any unfinished product can be said as work in progress.
Work in process or progress are partially completed goods, parts, or subassemblies that are no longer part of the raw
materials inventory and not yet part of the finished products inventory.Check this link to explore more on this topic,
