Agent not receiving work item assigned to him

Dear gurus,
we're using SRM server 550 with SP08. We are using n-step workflow for contract change version. The approvers are being determined by reading from a table. In total there are 8 approvers determined. We then add one more approver manually. Then we do the approval. The approver1 manage to approve the contract successfully. However the problem come when approver2 want to approve, in which the contract not appear in his inbox.
When we check the contract again, we still see the approver as approver2, with slight difference in which there is no information "In approval since xxxx".
Can anyone suggest how can we prevent this to happen? And what can we do if such case happens?
Best regards,
John

Hi,
Why do you want to add the approver manually?
where do you add the approver? as second approver?
In the N-step badi , system will always retrieve the approver based on the coding in the BADI.
In the Badi you will be specifying the index for each of the approver involved in the approval chain.
looks like in your case , system is not able to identify the correct approver and so the work item is not send out.
is the approval flow working correctly without an added approver?
regards

  • Accessing Work Items assigned to other users from end user page

    Hello Experts,
    We are using Sun IDM 6.0 SP1 at our client place. Most of the applications integrated with IDM are manually provisioned, in the sense, once after all the necessary approvals are received the request will be assigned to a group of provisioners, they will manually connect to the requested application and create the account in native system. There are more than 100 such provisioners in the organization.
    Current design is to assign a work item to all the provisioners (like Multi approval) and once a provisioner assigns the request to himself then the corresponding work item will be taken out from other provisioners approval queue. These provisioners login to end user page of Sun IDM to access their approval queue as only the end user page is SSO enabled.
    Because of the large number of requests in the system (more than 50k) and each request having 100 work items, the number of work items in the system is huge and thus the performance of the system is very poor so we are working to change the design to bring down the number of work items in the system.
    Customer is not convinced to have a dedicated person who can get all these work items in his queue and assign it to the appropriate provisioner, they are looking to have a solution something similar to the current one in which all the provisioner can see all the requests in the system and they can pick from it and assign to them.
    So we are thinking to create a generic id in the system and assign all the work items to that id, and make changes to the “end user work items list” file so that all the provisioner can see the work items that are assigned to them as well as that generic id.
    But for some reason I’m not getting the work items assigned to other users in the end users page. I have tried assigning all the capabilities to logged in user and tried some code changes in “end user work item list” page.
    Please share if you have any sample code which can list the work items assigned to other users in end user page. Also please let me know if there is any better alternate to this problem.

    Hi,
    There is a option to find and get other user's workitems. Please check the attestation and remediation tab. Use the form portion from attestation page and add it in the Work item list form. This will enable to the user to search for another user's workiteams and assign it to him/her manually. (The user needs to be assigned proper admin rights)
    To get all the workitems, in the system, you will need to query the repository for all the workitems.... but not sure it will be a good idea in your case as the volume is very high.
    Hope it helps

  • Obsolete and batch users can receive work items

    Dear Experts,
    Currently, we have found a problem that obsolete and batch users can receive work items by manual forwarding from someone. The roles and responsibilities of obsolete users were removed and users have been locked. For Batchuser, it's only created for some certain job with limited roles.
    Could you help advise if this's a behavior of workflow or it's from some authorization problem? We have concern for business impact since no one is really handling work items and important messages are out of sight.
    Thank you very much in advance.
    Regards, Kae

    Hello,
    This is standard behaviour. It is even possible to send work items to users who do not yet exist (e.g. someone who is due to join the company).
    The easiest way to workaround is to set up a substitution for any users that get locked and for background users. Personal substitutes can be maintained directly in table HRUS_D2, you could possibly write your own maintenance transaction for this if it is to be an ongoing issue.
    Hope that helps,
    Mike

  • User can not get work item

    I created a demo workflow template with 2 userdecisions. The agent of the 1st is myself, and the agent of the other is another user USR001. Their possible agents are set general. I executed the workflow and found I could get the workitem in my inbox and approved, but USR001 can not get his workitem then. I checked the workflow log and found the agent USR001 get the item in the AGENTS icon. But in the grahical log, I found the status of the 2nd userdecision is 'READY' and (NO AGENT). Both of the two user (me and USR001) have SAP_ALL authorization. Then I logged on by another user and found the same problem: the user can only get the workitem of himself . And there is no error in the STEP HISTORY in technical details.
    So I have the following questions:
    1 Are there any configuration missed in the system?
    2 I want to know whether there are some documents about the basic configuration of workflow, such as  assignment of  the USER ROLE, necessary confuguration for development and use of workflow.
    Thanks!~

    Hello,
    You say:
    "I checked the workflow log and found the agent USR001 get the item in the AGENTS icon. But in the grahical log, I found the status of the 2nd userdecision is 'READY' and (NO AGENT). "
    READY and NO AGENT just means that no agent has executed the step yet. Click on the Agents icon to see which agents it has been sent to.

  • One agent not receiving the calls in UCCX7.0

    Dear All,
    Greetings!!
    We have UCCX 7.0(1)SR05_Build504 and call manager UCCM System version: 7.1.5.30000-1.
    - We have many team with basic IVR options for customers, one of the Team called "customer service". The customer service team have 6 to 8 agents. All have same CSS, partition, CSQ, Resource Groups and Team mapping.
    - The issue is, only one agent not able to receive the calls in the team. The user is properly configured in CSQ also the resource group and team configuration is fine. we have compared with working user and found all config is fine.
    - The user is logged in properly and always in ready state in CAD, but no call routed this agent and no error message observed on the agent side.
    - The user extension is 5154 and the user configured on call manager is Dennis. Fonseca. The UCCX Resource name also showing properly.
    - I have collected the MIVR logs and i can see the extension 5154 and agent name. The calls are routing. am not have much idea about MIVR log analzis, so icouldn't find the exact issue.
    - Please find the MIVR logs and help me to understand the issue or why the calls are not routing to this agent even logged and ready mode???
    Working user name is -
    5158 - Gabriela.Quesada
    Non-working user name is -
    5154 - Dennis.Fonseca
    MIVR Logs attached.

    Hi All,
    Thanks a lot your advise on this... the issue has been fixed after restarting the CRS engine..
    53278074: Jan 13 09:42:23.568 GMT-600 %MIVR-SS_CM-7-UNK:returning null from ContactMgr.offerResource(Dennis.Fonseca) because esds.size() is 0
    Basically, the UCCX Engine is not allocating the Agent (Dennis.Fonseca) to the Queue and that is the reason why is not receiving any calls even the Agent is “Ready”
    Thanks & Regards,

  • Build Failure Not Creating Work Items

    I am configuring nightly builds for our new TFS system (we migrated from VSS; using TFS 2013 Update 4).  I left the "Create work item on failure" set to True in the build configuration.  However, it seems that no work items are being
    created, or else I do not know how to find them.
    In the build log I see the line
    Create a bug for the build failure
    and it is not followed by any errors.  However, when I go into the Work area of the project (either through Visual Studio or a web browser) I do not see any work items.  I tried creating a new query and removing all filters, but nothing returns
    (we are not currently using Work Items for anything else).
    How do I find the work items it supposedly created, or if it is not creating them how do I get TFS to create them?

    Looks like this is failing with this message:
    TF30040: The database is not correctly configured. Contact your Team Foundation Server administrator.
    Specifically, it gets an access denied error when trying to call sp_send_dbmail.  Based on the Event Viewer on the server, it appears as though it is trying to execute sp_send_dbmail as my user, which does not have permissions to the proc.
    At the moment, there are several scenarios:
    1. Build fails, work item should be auto-created
    2. Work Item is manually created
    3. An alert is configured
    In scenario #1, the build fails, and no work item is created.  Event Logs on the server show that this is because the build service account does not have permissions to execute sp_send_dbmail.
    In scenario #2, I cannot create a work item because it is trying to send an email, though my user does not have permissions to execute sp_send_dbmail.
    In scenario #3, an email is sent.  I set up an alert to receive an email any time something is checked in.  I received said email.
    Is there a way to have this call made by some other user?  Or to disable the alerts altogether?

  • Could not open work Item having form with approve option

    Hi all
    I am using a form step in my work flow.
    Display form is working well.
    But when I use approve form, work item is reaching the correct inbox, but while opening the work item, it is showing the message as below instead of showing the form.
    Form cannot be executed (parameters incorrect)
    Message no. SWY_TASK_FORM029
    I could not able to find out, why this message is coming. Also In my work flow no errors are there.
    Can any one help me to solve this issue.
    Regards,
    Avinash.

    Thanks for the reply.
    The below three elements are binded correctly,
    &FORMPROGRAM&
    &FORMDYNPRO&
    &FORMCONTAINERELEMENT&
    In display form below container element is also created, For this element I have binded manually.
    &FORMWORKITEMID&.  Whizard didnot created the biding for this element in Display Form
    But in Approve form container element &FORMWORKITEMID& is not at all created while creating through whizard.
    Does this is causing the Issue?

  • Browse Work items assigned to a user.

    Hi experts,
    is there any table or somewhere where i can get the relation between a workitem and a user when it is assigned to him?  I am looking for a list of workitems assigned to a user that have not been yet processed or something like this.
    Than-you very much,
    Artur.
    Edited by: Artur Rodriguez Coma on Jan 26, 2010 12:37 PM

    Hello Artur,
    you should find those in the
    Table: SWWUSERWI
    Depending on your requirements, you could also use the
    Function module: SAP_WAPI_CREATE_WORKLIST
    which offers a bite more filtering options, takes substitution into account and will probably cope with assignments through the organizational model better.
    However, for a quick-view or so, you can be well with that table already.
    Best wishes,

  • TS20000189- change trip task not creating work item

    I am using the tsak TS20000189 for changing the travel request and expense report through UWL. when a manager clicks on "Send travel request back" one more iwork tem is appearing in the inbox to send the reason text.When manager enters the text and sends.requestor is getting the notifications to change the travel request but there is no work item is created in the inbox so that he clicks on it and changes the request  and  send again for approval.
    Please suggest me how to overcome this?

    The reason here is that the event "changed" works in the following
    way
    - "CHANGED" is NOT meant for triggering a workflow as a start event.
      This event is raised in order to end any existing workflow instance
      already created for the object.
    - subsequently this requires the workflow model to contain a
      step 'waiting for event CHANGED' which ends the workflow whenever
      it is raised.
    - the CHANGED and CREATED event are raised EVERY time a trip is saved.
      This leads to the workflow to be actual all the time. And TRIP does
      not leave the transaction after save. The save button there is meant
      to be like this. ESS users may be used to the save button not
      leaving the screen like it is e.g. in Excel or something.
    Consider also, your customizing in TRVPA (via T code PE03) in relation
    to this and the status for feature for "WRP" for what status shows
    when saving a trip also.

  • SWIA -- Forwarding option is grayed out... can not forward Work Item

    Hi,
    When I use SWIA to forward one Work Item to another user, that option is grayed out there.
    While another use with same access is getting this option for the same work item.
    Any user specific setting preventing this?
    DA

    Usually when you try to forward an already forwarded item then the option is greyed out. Which is why one user can forward it and another cannot.

    To petition for refunds, you need to go to expresslane.apple.com > itunes > itunes store > billing and accounts
    I would suggest that you contact the developer of the app to see what exactly you purchased, because itunes store support can get you the refund, but they can't tell you exactly what you purchased. They just handle the money, they don't necessarily dictate what the app's devloper sells

  • Not receiving emails when assigning a user a task

    Hello friends,
    I am attempting to figure out what I am missing in my configuration here...
    I have a SP2013 site where I added the out of the box task application. When I go to assign a task to an end user, the end user never receives an email informing them that a task has been assigned.
    I believe email is setup correctly because when the site is shared with the same end users an email is sent / received informing the end user they have been granted access to the site in question...
    any thoughts on what I have misconfigured?
    thank you in advance

    Hi,
    As for the incoming settings, not all lists support incoming emails. You could go to Document library settings and see if incoming email setting exist under Communication.
    I’d like to collect more information about the issue. What OOB task application are you using? Did you mean OOB workflow on SharePoint 2010 platform? Does the alert work for the list?
    Please confirm the following for the issue workflow:
    In the start options, try checking Creating a new item will start this workflow.
    In the Approvers box, try only adding one user with mailbox enabled.
    In the Request box, type “Request for the list”
