Add Approver - applet performance when 'Add here' pressed

Hi -
We have recently upgraded to SRM 5.0 (classic) and are noticing that the Add hoc approver functionality is quite slow when using the graphical view.
Steps:
- for a sc to be approved, go to Approval Preview
- click 'Add Approver'
- on any of the 'Add here' entries, press
The perofmance problem is when the 'Add here' is pressed - for the graphical view, i.e. using the applet, the performance can take 15 sec. and sometimes longer. But, if in table view, the performance is o.k. at about 5 sec.
This leads me to believe that the problem is with the applet (as opposed to for example the agent assignment causing problems, as is the same agent assignment with both ways).
Just wondering if anyone is noticing the same issue - I have found nothing in OSS nor in this forum.
Thanks,
Keith

Keith,
We are also in the process of implmenting SRM5.5/EBP5.0.
Just throwing out some ideas...since the graphical view is using a Jave applet could cause be due tp the jre version? Parhaps upgrading ot he lates jre will solve the problem.
Thanks,
PS. Where in Canada are you?

Cannot add approver / reviewer

Hi All
We are on SRM 5.0 SRM Server 5.5.
When we try to add approver or reviewer the add approver / add review icons are greyed out for both shopping carts and PO's.
When we change the BBP_WFL_SECURITY to any level in personalisation this has no effect.
am I missing some config / other settings?
thanks
Daniel

Hi,
See if the BADI BBP_CHNG_AGNT_ALLOW is implemented in SE18.If there is any active implementation for this BADI,deactivate it.
Also see the foll notes:
Note 888560 - Not able to add approvers in table approval preview

Shopping Cart Add Approver option

Hi all,
We have a requirement wherein after creating a shopping cart we can add approver by using the "Add Approver" button on the top, i just want to know what is the backend function module or BADI called while adding the approver manually.
In our case the creator can add his name as approver but this should be prevented, can any one guide me how to do this......
Its very urgent and every one is highly appreciated..........

Hi
Which SRM version are you using ?
If you use WS14000133 as an alternative, you can determine the list of approvers flexibly according to your particular requirements.
You do this using the method GET_REMAING_APPROVERS of BAdI BBP_WFL_APPROV_BADI, with which you can integrate a logic for determining the approvers for each approval step (this can be more than one) and the number of steps in the entire approval process.
For more details, see the IMG:

Add approver when the SC is in Awaiting approval

Hi SDN,
we are using SRM 5.5 system.
When the SC is created the in the BADI - BBP_WFL_APPROV_BADI we are finding the manger of the user and sending workflow to that mangaer.
Up to this eery thing is working fine.
But when the SC creater wants to chnage the Approver name in Approver Preview (Add approver) when the SC is in Awaiting approval.
System is allowing us to add APprover here but when i Save the SC system calling the BADI BBP_WFL_APPROV_BADI and over righting that manger name with the original manger not with added manger.
Please let me know.
Thanks
Naresh

Once i selected the add approver i can't see this value or capture in any badi.
Can any one know where can i get the added approver details before saving the shopping cart
that mean at run time.

ADD approver when WS14000109 is active.

Hey,
I have a special requirement, to add an additional approver in the shopping cart.
WS14000109 is active and working fine.
The buttons ADD APPROVER & ADD REVIEWER are existing on the screen, but not enabled.
Tried changing the security settings (0/1/2/3/4) no luck..
I have read through the posts here ......nothing works.
Did anyone resolve this.
I donot want to implement N- Step BADI...workflow.
regs

Hi,
Work flow WS14000109 which is activated in your system is a work flow
"Approval n-step over Value Limit".
In this work flow no "Adhoc Anchor" step is configuared that is why ADD approval & Add reviewer functionality is missing .
If you analyze the Workflow WS10000031 which is two step approval standard workflow in workflow builder you will find that Adhoc Anchor step.
I hope this will clarify your doubt. Do remember to award points

Add Approver button disabled for PO in sap srm when GR and IR are already posted

Hello Gurus,
One of my user has edited an old PO for which the GR and IR has already been posted in backend. Now the reason for editing was to change the expected value for 3 item and he changed the value the approver is still blank as for old PO's there was no approval required but later on the whole scenario changed and based on total value the approvers are decided now. But for this PO still its not showing the appovers and also the add approver button is disabled. Is there any way to enable the Add approver button. Also please let me know whether addition of approver is allowed after the GR and IR are posted in backend.
Thanks

Solved.
In Control Actions -> Configure Control of Actions on Header Level, it's not neccessary put the subtype equal to 0.

Can anyone tell me why my collusion .27 add-on stopped working when I updated to firefox 20 (and now 21?).

Can anyone tell me why my collusion .27 add-on stopped working when I updated to firefox 20 (and now 21?). I've tried removing and reinstalling to no avail. I even deleted my profile files and had firefox repopulate those automatically to no avail. And it's not the only add-on to have stopped working.

Add approver/ reviewer-data not coming up.

Hi All
One more question-we are in SRM4.0
We managed to enable the add approver and add reviewer tabs under approval.
Now when we try to add approver or reviewer the system does not fetch any data. Do we need to maintain a separate table of approvers and reviewers and link a program so that when user clicks on the tab, the data is fetched from the table....or there is some other way out.
Regards
Ashish

Ashish,
I am having a similar kind of issue like what you had months back. The 'Add approver' and 'Add reviewer' buttons are disabled on the shopping cart status overview. I have the approval task TS10008126 as general task (Not general fowarding allowed). Also the SAP provided BADI SAP_CHNG_AGNT_ALLOW is active in the system. But for some reason the add approver/reviewer buttons are greyed out.
How did you resolve your issue? Appreciate your help
Thanks

SRM 7.0 'Add Approver' button disabled after rejection

Hi Experts,
I'm working on SRM 7.0(BRF) RFx workflow. I have configured the process level schema and the acceptance by contact person in customizing. When any of the approver rejects the document, it comes back to the creator which is right. But i see the 'Add Approver' button as disabled. But while creating a new document it is showing the 'Add Approver' button, only after rejection, the creator is seeing the button as disabled. Is it the standard behaviour in SRM7.0 ?
Can you guys share your thoughts on this..
Thanks

You only got half my query. It starts with a ;.
;with maxApproval as
select approveId, max(approvalDate) as approvalDate from Approval group by approveId
SELECT di.DocID as DocumentID,
di.DocName as DocumentName,
di.UploadedDate as UploadedDate ,
di.Uploadfile as FileUploaded,
di.UploadedBy as UploadedBy,
d.DepType as Department,
coalesce(ma.ApproveDate, ''),
at.ApproveType as Status
FROM dbo.DocumentInfo di inner JOIN
dbo.ApproveType at ON di.ApproveID = at.ApproveID
inner JOIN
dbo.Department d ON di.DepID = d.DepID left
join
maxApproval ma on at.ApproveID = ma.ApproveID;
This is a CTE. You can learn about them in my article on Code Project, here:
http://www.codeproject.com/Articles/702691/SQL-Wizardry-Part-Three-Common-Table-Expressions-C
As you can see, I also aliased all your tables, which makes my SQL more concise. As I said, the aliases ( like the di. in di.DocId ) can be removed if that column name only exists in one of the tables you're selecting from.

Add some (Master) Shapes to another (Master) Shape in Microsoft Visio 2013 x64 when add a (Master) Shape to the Page

I want to create a new Master Shape in the Microsoft Visio 2013 x64 like the Class
Master Shape in the UML Class Stencil.
When add the Class Master Shape to a page, it appends two Member and one Separator Master Shapes in itself automatically. Furthermore, can add more Member and Separator Master Shapes in it.
I was thinking that it adds other Master Shapes in itself by some written VBA codes; however, when I checked the file of the UML Class (Metric)
Stencil in the following full path, I got that it uses no VBA codes, not at all.
D:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office15\Visio Content\1033\USTRME_M.VSSX
The file extension is "Visio Stencil (*.vssx)" instead of "Visio Macro-Enabled Stencil (*.vssm)"; so, it can't have VBA codes.
I know that I can do something by adding some new Rows in the Actions Section of the ShapeSheet; however, it doesn't exist any action Rows to add fresh Member and Separator Master Shapes for Class Shape.
Figure 1 - Separator Shape with two additional options in the Context Menu and without any related rows in the ShapeSheet
Figure 2 - Display a Bar to insert Separator Shape
Figure 3 - Member Shape with two additional options in the Context Menu and without any related rows in the ShapeSheet
Figure 4 - Display a Bar to insert Member Shape
When I do RMB click on a Class Shape that is placed in the page, it has two new options in theContext Menu:
Show Template Parameter
Show Stereotype
And I see related Actions' Section Rows for them.
Figure 5 - Class Shape with two additional options in the Context Menu and related rows in the ShapeSheet
When I do RMB click on the Member and Separator Shapes in added Class Shape, can see "Insert "Member/Separator" before/after";
however, when I add Member and Separator Master Shapes on the page directly (not in the Class Shape), when I do RMB click on them, can't see extra options in the Context Menu.
Figure 6 - Separator Shape with no additional options in the Context Menu
Figure 7 - Member Shape with no additional options in the Context Menu
I checked their ShapeSheet and can't find any related rows for above-mentioned actions.
Now, my question is that how can I create a new Master Shape with the ability to accept some other Master Shapes without any VBA codes like Class Shape
in the UML Class Stencil that is created by Microsoft?
Regards Mohsen Rostami

The class diagram master shape is a "Container/List" shape, which has two "elements" (members) pre-loaded. You can of course build these groups using VBA. You might try to google it. Here is a starter.

Add text to display when no records display

In 'Building Reports' 21.6 which is 'Add text to display when no records display' a solution is given which involves putting boilerplate text underneath the group frame at the same level as the repeating group so that if there aren't any records retrieved the boilderplate text will be visible. My question is - is there an alternative method for achieving the same thing? i.e display the boilderplate text 'None.' if no records are returned. I have a report with a large number of frames & find the solution proposed messy & difficult to implement.
TIA
Simon

The only thing you can do is make sure there is something to print. You could bas your report on a temp table which you populate with your select statement which you normally use in your report. Then after the table is populated you add the missing records in the temp table. Your report will be based upon the temp table.
You can start this process in the after parameter form trigger by calling a PL/SQL procedure which will perform the business logic explained above.

Windows command length execeeded when add java options in opmn.xml

Hi All,
I have a Oracle AS 9i installed on Windows 2000. There are some requirement from my application that need to add additional java-options when start up OC4J. So, I updated the opmn.xml by add my things to <data id="java-options" > for start-parameters.
But when I start up server, I got following information in ipm.log:
06/05/16 17:18:06 create_proc: Windows command length exceeded: D:\ora9ias\jdk\bin\javaw.exe
I have tried Oracle AS 10g with the same OS and java-options, the server can start up without any problem.
Is there anyway to make Oracle AS 9i work in this situation?
Thanks for any help.

Hi again,
Solved the issue simply by editing the xml file with sed:
VAR1='OC4J_I413\/config\/java2\.policy -Djava\.awt\.headless\=true -Dhttp\.webdir\.enable\=false -XX\:MaxPermSize\=128M -Xms512M -Xmx1024M -XX\:AppendRatio\=3\"\/\>'
VAR2='OC4J_I413\/config\/java2\.policy -Djava\.awt\.headless\=true -Dhttp\.webdir\.enable\=false -XX\:MaxPermSize\=256M -Xms512M -Xmx1024M -XX\:AppendRatio\=3 -Duser\.country\=SE -Duser\.language\=sv\"\/\>'
sed "s/$VAR1/$VAR2/" opmn.xml > Newopmn.xml; cp Newopmn.xml opmn.xml
This is a text string that contains start parameters and it can be found here:
<category id="start-parameters">
<data id="java-options" value="-server -Djava.security.policy=$ORACLE_HOME/j2ee/OC4J_I413/config/java2.policy -Djava.awt.headless=true -Dhttp.webdir.enable=false -XX:MaxPermSize=128M -Xms512M -Xmx1024M -XX:AppendRatio=3"/>
