Agent Determination error in workflow

Hi all ,
  We are working on Travel Management workflow ( 4.6 C ) . We have transported the workflow to our quality server where the workflow is giving error .
  The workflow is not able to determine the agent for a task giving an error "no valid agent found" . We then executed the FM which was attached to the role which gave us the desired output .
  Any inputs from your side ?
Thanks ,
Sonu M.

Sonu,
Task attributes are HR data and have to be moved using a standard HR data transfer program.
Use program RHMOVE30 - enter object type TS, and your task number.  Use eval path TASKHIER.
Use the dropdown on the request parameter to create a transport request.
When you get the result list, make sure your task is selected for transport then use the option to include it in the Transport.
You should then be able to go to txn SE09 and see your task has been assigned to the transport.
You can then transport your task.
Regards,
Jocelyn

  • Agent determination error

    Hi all
    I am trying to configure a workflow for PO release , the Business object am using is BUS2012 in ECC6.0
    Whenever a PO is rejected i need to send the work item to the user(Workflow initiator)  who created the PO .
    I created a standard task and i am using it in the work flow, where the agent is determined using expression (WF initiator) . The standard task is set to general task.
    But the worflow fails at this step due to this error "Agent determination for step failed" and details say "Result of agent resolution does not agree with agents of task" which is SWF_RUN 544
    I did refresh the worflow buffer using tcode SWU_OBUF and also refreshed organizational settings in SBWP.
    Is there something which is still missing.
    appreciate your help.. Thanks
    Nataraju

    Hi Nataraju,
    Select the WF initiator from agent dropdown in standard task as shown in screenshot below
    Make sure you activate the WF template and Use transaction SWU_OBUF before you trigger the WF.
    It is good to execute Transaction SWU_OBUF after you make changes and activate the WF

  • Need help with agent determination for release workflow

    Hi,
    I am trying to perform a release in the contract(FS-contract management) by using the framework for principle of dual control. When i create a contract, i get a message that says contract created, not yet released. But i am not able to get the work item in my inbox to release the contract. The SWI1 transaction shows 'no agent' for the triggered workflow. I am using the template WS50100021 as there is only one release step. By default there is a rule '50100017' given for the template. But in the customizing settings i have the section called 'assign rule to release steps'. Do i need to assign a rule here for agent determination. If so, what about the rule in the WS50100021 template? Which one should i use? I am able to execute the method 'release' of object BUSISB001 from SWO1 and release or reject the contract creation. But i am not able to get the workitem in my inbox in SBWP transaction

    Hi Suhas,
    The rule used in workflow template WS50100021 is a standard one. So try to find out that on what basis it is fetching the agents. It could be the case that the logic specified in the rule does not fulfill your requirement.
    The other reason could be that you have not specified the task as general. Please check if the agents tab is activated(green) in the task or not. If it is not you need to set the task as general.
    SOLUTION : if you want to get the workitem in your own SAP Inbox for testing purpose, you can set the WFINITIATOR as agent instead of that standard rule. This setting will send the workitem in your own SAP Inbox.

  • 2 step confirmation agent determination error

    Hi everyone!
    We have a prod issue where a 2step app confirmation workflow has failed to determine the responsible agent. This has been working correct for years.
    Using bbp_pd, the workflow shows no error message. There's a workitem number created but the responsible approver is blank. The item status is 'ready'. The task is a general task and the workitem was not sent to all.
    Would you know any idea that might solve this error? Do we have dependencies in any job failure or any basis issue?
    Kindly guide me on this matter.
    Thanks in advance.

    Hello Reymar,
    how do you find approvers, via Z* table or organizational hierarchy?
    Is that happening to all your 2-step workflows or only one?

  • Agent determination problem

    I have a workflow that has been in production for almost a year.  We are in the middle of integration testing for another rollout and I'm getting agent determination errors in this workflow.  There are three steps involved.  The first two use the exact same rule.  The first of these two works fine.  When it tries to run the rule again for the second step, it gets no agent found.  If I test the rule it works.  If I restart the workflow, it works.  When it moves on to the third work item using a different rule, it errors out no agent found.  When I test this rule, it works.  When I restart at this step, it also works.
    This is a new integration client that was copied from production.  I've performed the standard workflow customization like I always do.  I've run several other workflows and only notice the agent determination problems in this one.  The workflow hasn't changed in months although there have been some user security changes...I'm not sure how that could really affect the agent determination during the creation of work items. 
    One thing that might be important...userA created the first workitem and the agent determination resolves to userB.  When userB executes the first work item and completes, the second work item should also resolve to userB using the exact same rule.  This fails.  I restarted it using my account and it resolves to userB.  UserB executes work item #2 and work item #3 should resolve to userC but the agent determation fails again.  I don't know whether the work item agent is "used" to perform the creation of the next workitem or not but this is the only difference between the first two work items and one works while the other does not.
    It's almost like userA can perform the agent determination but userB cannot.  I can't manually execute the agent determination as userB so I ran se37 as myself in debug and changed SYST-UNAME to userB and it worked fine and returned userB as the agent.  That would seem to eliminate security as an issue with the agent determination.

    Hi,
    Are you absolutely sure that it is not an authorisation issue? Can you give SAP_ALL (and the possible structural authorisations) to all the users that are involved in the process? (I don't think that changing sy-uname in debug mode to another user really is a correct way to try to prove whether this is an authorisation issue.)
    The agent determination of the following step is executed by the previous WF agent, if there is no background steps between. So if the previous agent doesn't have enought authorisations, the agent determination will fail.

  • Agent determination for step 0000000081 failed error in workflow

    Hello All,
         I am doing employment verification from ESS portal. In the workflow step I have selected RULE to determine the agent. To configure rule, I double click on rule, on next screen selected "Agent determination - responsibilties" to determine the agent. I configured responsibilties with the valid value ranges and everything but the workflow is going into error! I did research and not sure what I am doing wrong. I checked the workflow container in workflow log and all the values that are supposed to pass to rule container are showing up fine.I keep getting the error:
    Agent determination for step 0000000081 failed
    Result og agent resolution does not agree with agents of task.
    Any feedback you could provide would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks.

  • Error in resolution of rule ... for step - Agent determination for failed

    Dear Experts,
    in SRM 7.0 CS, i have come accross the following workflow error:
    I have extended my existing organizational plan for a new site (new CoCo, Plant, Purch Org and Purch Gr). But when i use my test users with this site, i receive a workflow error, that has the following wording in SWI2_DIAG:

    Can you maybe help me understand, what this error means and how to resolve it?
    Thank you very much!
    P.S. my test users work fine if i drag them to another location in my organizational plan. And also if i take other test user from locations where everything works fine and drag them to this "problem" location, than the same workflow error occures.

    Remove the user from the PPOMA node and add him again.. Sometimes this will solve the issue..
    Thanks!!

  • Agent determination issue with no error, cant use SWPR?

    Hello gurus.
    We currently have 81 invoices that have workflow status "in process". However, the last line of this status is "agent determination issue". I've assigned the appropriate user in PFOM and i want to restart the workflow item, but i cannot use SWPR.
    Normally it should be in error and you can use SWPR, and that fixes everything- however why is the workflow still "in process" and not in error? and how can i complete the workflow item now that the agent has been assigned? do i just create a new workflow using SWUE and delete the old one? Many thanks.

    Hi,
    OK then try like this , as you said you do not have authorizations to SWI1_RULE right so do teh below steps,
    1. Execute SE37 and execute the fucntion module ALINK_CALL_TRANSACTION.
    2. Now mention the txn name as SWI1_RULE.
    3. Now you should be able to see teh initial screen of the txn.
    4. Now enter teh workitem ID which is in ready state not the top workitem ID, the workitem for which the agent is not assigned. Click F8.
    5. Now choose that workitem ID and click CTRL + SHIFT + F11.
    it should re evalutae the agents, if this is also not determing then make a note of the RULE ID from activity step and open the txn by using the above function module and try to simulate the rule or please let us know what is the rule type.
    Regards

  • Agent determination issue in a workflow

    Greetings everyone!
    I'm configuring some business scenario with the help of a business workflow in SAP CRM 7.0 I'm using activity step and want to determine agents using standard SAP rule 10000162 ("Employees for responsible org. unit"). I've tested the rule outside of the workflow and it's working fine, but  in workflow it fails to determine an agent.
    In a log I see following errors:
    Agent determination for step '0000000023' failed;
    Result of agent resolution does not agree with agents of task;
    I've made some tests depending on what assignment task has:
    1. When it is a general task, work item was created for a workflow initiator even though rule failed to determine an agent.
    2. When it is a task with general forwarding with assigned position(s), which rule will never determine, work item was created for holder(s) of that position(s).
    3. When it is a task with general forwarding with no assignments, workflow could not determine an agent as expected.
    I've also debugged functional module for that rule and it determines appropriate agent but then do some check with the help of RH_TASK_AGENT_CHECK function and returns an error.
    Can someone help me with this problem? Is it some standard expected behavior or not?
    Maybe something wrong with the org. plan?
    All answers are appreciated.
    Thanks in advance,
    Alex.

    Hello Rick and Eddie.
    I've tried to assign user directly instead of position to a task with no help. I get the same result.
    I've tried to set a task as a general task and made the rule to fail if there is no resolution and it fails.
    I've tried to assign position or user directly to activity in a workflow and it does work but that's not what I need in my scenario.
    As I said earlier I've tried to debug that rule invoked from a workflow. I will post some screenshots for you.
    I set a task as a general task and assigned rule 10000162 (ABBR="PARTNER_1", Name="Employees for responsible org. unit") to activity step in a workflow and here is what I get:
    1. Function CRM_ORGMAN_ORGOBJECTS_FIND_2 gets called by the rule and resp. sales org. unit is passed there ([screenshot1|http://www.picdrop.net/?v=debug1.png])
    2. Next function CRM_ORGUNIT_GETEMPLOYEES gets called passing id of a resp. sales org.unit without a type.
    3. Next RH_STRUC_GET gets called and returns result table with position and central person for that position ([screenshot2|http://www.picdrop.net/?v=debug2.png])
    4. In the end of CRM_ORGMAN_ORGOBJECTS_FIND_2 function only central person in inserted to the actor_tab ([screenshot3|http://www.picdrop.net/?v=debug3.png])
    5. After CRM_ORGMAN_ORGOBJECTS_FIND_2 ends we appear in a RH_GET_ACTORS function where we can see that agent check is performed if act_task is not initial. I assume that check is not performed if we do a simulation of a rule ([screenshot4|http://www.picdrop.net/?v=debug4.png])
    6. Then RH_TASK_AGENT_CHECK function gets called for every record in a actor_tab. In out particular case it's one record. ([screenshot5|http://www.picdrop.net/?v=debug5.png])
    7. Inside that function checks act_wi_id (activity work item id?) if it's initial and get exluded agents. It is initial in my case ([screenshot6|http://www.picdrop.net/?v=debug6.png])
    8. Then function tries to read table with keys equal to type and id of found agent and errors there, perhaps because there is no record in that table ([screenshot7|http://www.picdrop.net/?v=debug7.png])
    That error results in overall agent determination failure.
    Hope this screenshots will help to identify a problem.
    Why read table results in an error and because of that all rule fails?
    Regards,
    Alex.

  • Agent determination for workflow

    Hi everyone,
    I have a classic issue: I'm trying to assign a workflow task to an agent. The agent should be determined from the container element "APPROVER". In the task I've entered the expression &APPROVER&; however, I'm receiving error "Agent determintaion for step 4 failed..." "Result of agent determination does not agree with agents of task". And, yes, I've made sure the APPROVER element is of type Import and has a proper value.
    I don't get this; I thought setting the agent to the value of the container element should do the job? After all, the container element "APPROVER" comes up in the F4 search help under the Decision tab of the task... what's wrong here?
    The WF works fine if I set the "WF_Initiator" as the agent, however. But, this is a bit limiting in the long run...
    Regards,
    Trond

    Hi Ravi,
    this is what I actually did... but I found another post, with a reply from Ramki Maley, advising me to make the APPROVER of type SWHACTOR. That helped!
    Thanks anyway,

  • Error in resolution of rule ... for step - Agent determination failed

    Dear All,
    In SRM 7.0 CS, i am having a problem in the area of work flow. In general, the workflow is working fine, but at times the work item does not get delivered to the approver.
    As per the analysis from SWI2_DIAG, the error is the following for the concerned shopping carts:

    Does anyone have an idea on the root cause of this error?
    Thank you very much.

    Hi Masa,
    thank you very much for the reply.
    Yes, rolewise the approver is having the manager role in SRM and also on the portal. But what do you mean by "manager position in PPOSA_BBP"?
    The user is hanging in his node together with the other users. Is there any specific "manager position", where the approvers have to be put in PPOMA? I mean, the other approvers, for whom the workflow is working normal, are hangig in their nodes just like the approver who is not getting the work item.
    Moreover, if i drag the users (the requestor and the approver) into an other node (for another plant of another company code for example), than the work flow is working fine.
    Can there be any other reason for such an error?
    Thank you very much.

  • PR Overall Release Workflow - Agents Determination Failed

    Dear All WF Experts,
    I have used the standard workflow WS20000077 for PR Overall Release. I have assigned the agents to the task TS20000159 by position maintained in the Workflow Organizational Management Structure. The agents' names are showing correctly in the task's agent settings.
    However,  when I execute the workflow, the error 'Agent Determination Failed' for that step (TS20000159). I have checked the agent settings in workflow and SPRO, they look fine. Could anyone please kindly give me advices how to solve this error? Thank you so much.

    Hi, to all the experts who have helped me all these while,
    Thank you very much for spending time helping me to go through this issue.
    Yesterday, I ran through the coding for the function module for the rule AC20000026 again. I found out that there is one part of the coding which is causing the failure of determining an agent. The code disregard the company code for overall release of Purchase Requisition while the business requirement involves company codes in every PR created. Thus, by changing that code, the problem is solved.
    The snippet of code of function module (ME_REL_GET_RESPONSIBLE):
       CASE t16fc-frgwf.
    * keine Ermittlung
          WHEN space.
            RAISE nobody_found.
    * Ermittlung ¨¹ber T16fW
          WHEN '1'.
            IF eban-gsfrg EQ space.
    *     Einzelpositionsfreigabe Banf
              SELECT SINGLE * FROM t16fw WHERE frggr = eban-frggr
                                           AND frgco = rm06b-frgab
                                           AND werks = eban-werks.
            ELSE.
    *     Gesamtfreigabe Banf
              SELECT SINGLE * FROM t16fw WHERE frggr = eban-frggr
                                           AND frgco = rm06b-frgab
                                           AND werks = space.
    There is always a value in werks in my business scenario...
    SELECT SINGLE * FROM t16fw WHERE frggr = eban-frggr
                                           AND frgco = rm06b-frgab
                                           AND werks = space.
    So, by changing it to
    AND werks = eban-werks
    it will work, however, I think it's better to just remove the If statement
    IF eban-gsfrg EQ space.
    , since it has no effect anymore.
    I hope this would give a hint to all the rest who might be facing the same problem as well.
    Thank you very much,

  • Agent determination in price variance workflow

    Hi all,
    I am facing some problem in workflow, can any one help me.
    for determing the agent in case of price variance in invoice we are using the rule 009000010(object type T024 is assigned). Can any one tell me how this determines the agent based on purchase group?
    now we have a requirement to change the behavior of determining the agent. If the Purchase order is crated by the temporary user(we have some temporary users), the agent determination should be like standard (like 009000010 rule), and for all other users we have to assign the agent name as same as user name.
    now for solving this i am planning to create a new rule of type "F"(Agent determination :function to be executed) and assigning a new function module.
    Function module will have two import parameters "puthcase group" "purchase order number". Using the purchase order number i will get the user, after that i will find the user type. If the user is temprory i have to determine the agent like standard way (like rule 009000010(object typeT024). Can any one please tell me how the rule 009000010 will determine the agent for the purchase group.
    Thanks & Regards,
    Raghu

    That rule is not available in the sandbox system I have access to, so it can't be a basic rule. Either it is customer-specific, or it belongs to some industry solution or add-on package.
    Generic advice: why don't you simply investigate how this rule solves its task? You can even copy it as a starting point for your own rule.

  • Agent Determination in Workflow

    Hi,
    I am implementing a workflow for change in basic pay, the problem is i am not clear how to go about agent determination,  i need to follow my organizational structure but not completely like its not like the complete hierarchy. I need ideas, and some what how to go about it.
    Thanks.
    Khusro Habib

    Hi,
    Do you know who should be notified of the change in Basic Pay? is it the Employee's supervisor? If it is the Supervisor.. create a method.. In the method start off with the Employee's PERNR.. Grab the position from infotype 0001.. look up HRP1001 subty B002 to see who this position reports to.. you will now have the supervisor's position in HRP1001-SOBID.. do another look up on HRP1001 SUBTY A008 to get the pernr of the supervisor in HRP1001-SOBID.. got infotype 0105 SUBTY 0001 to obtain the User id of the supervisor.. notify the supervisor of the chnage in Basic Pay...
    Hope this helps..
