AP Invoice Approval- Approve button gives error

Hi all,
    I work on oracle applications 11.5.10 and we have modified the AP Invoice approval workflow APINV to send mail notifications to approver.
    The mail is sent to a approver mail address in Microsoft outlook web app as intended. But when the approver clicks on APPROVE or REJECT button, we get an error as below.
     I could see all the listener agents are up and running. Could anyone please shed some light on this issue.
Error:
Your request couldn't be completed.
This may have occurred for security reasons or because your session timed out.
Thanks,
VickySure

hi,
please open a service request with oracle support to analyze the problem.
in portal 10.1.4 we offer an easy way of doing this with our new CMEF (content management event framework). you can easily check for pending items and send out an email.

CS3 All Buttons give error #2007: Parameter child must be non-null

Using CS3 actionscript all buttons give the following code. I
have tried it myself and used the examples with CS3 and on
livedocs.
Here is the button code:*************************
import fl.controls.Button;
var myButton:Button = new Button();
myButton.toggle = true;
myButton.move(10, 10);
myButton.addEventListener(Event.CHANGE, changeHandler);
addChild(myButton);
function changeHandler(event:Event):void {
trace("Button toggled (selected:" +
event.currentTarget.selected + ")");
**************Error ***************************
TypeError: Error #2007: Parameter child must be non-null.

Button toggled (selected:true)
Can anyone help me with correcting this problem. I can't find
it by googling, searching livedocs, help, etc.

Thanks that worked. I didn't add other components directly to
the library, just called them in the actionscript. Do you know why
the button would be different?

Workflow user-decision mail with Approve & Reject button to Outlook.

Hi All,
Requirement: To send a mail with Approve & Reject buttons to outlook inbox.
Approach: I have used the user-decision step in the workflow and the approve, reject buttons are displayed . As far as solution in SAP inbox is concerned, it is solved.
However the requirement is to show the mail with the buttons in the outlook mail.
Resolution Required For: to show the mail with the buttons in the outlook mail. I am new to workflows sending mail to outlook inbox. Is there any way to do this using ABAP developments.
Thanks for your time.
Best Regards,
Goutham.

Hi,
If you are on ECC 5.0 or above, you can use the Extended Notif. for achieving this.
How are you getting the Outlook mail ?. If you already have Extn.Notif, then do the following :
1. In Transaction SWNCONFIG,for your Scenario and Category,
in the Subscription Basis Data -->Subscription Settings,
Set the parameter SHOW_ACTION_DECISION_AS as "LINK"
This will give you the options of your user decision as LInks in Outlook mail.
There is lot of material in this forum for Extended Notif. if you search.
Hope this helps.

There is invoice workflow approval running and i want to exclude from it specific supplier

hi ,
please i am having some invoices from external system imported into oracle through interface , i want to import this invoices as approved or exclude it from the ap invoices approval workflow
will someone help me how this could be done ??
thanks

If it is a imported invoice, you can define the custom attribute based on source or specific vendor or both.
Below steps for approval not required for specific vendor
Please follow the below steps
1) Define custom attribute
Data type: Number
Usage Type: Dynamic
Value:
select vendor_id from ap_invoices_all where invoice_id = :transactionId
2) Define condition by using the above attribute, here give your vendor id (where approval is not required)
3) Define production rule & attach the above condition & ensure to select the following action type "NO INVOICE APPROVAL REQUIRED/INVOICE MATCHED"
4) initiate invoice approval for one invoice, the status of that invoice should be "Not Required"
Please update the test results once you are done.

Workitem is not getting approved even it gives success message in UWL

Hi,
I have a Claims and Approvals - Domentic Education Workflow.
When 1st line approver tries to approve a workitem then it gives success message that workitem has been approved but when approver refreshes his UWL this workitem still exists in his worklist and even its status doesn't get changed to Approved.
This taks is not defined as General Task.I had even synchronized using TR - SWU_OBUF but still issue persists. I can Complete a workitem using Tr SWIA but I am not ure how I can Approve given workitem from R3 side.
Thanks,
Yagyesh

Hi Yagyesh,
Even i faced similar issue. First thing, if "Delta pull mechanism" not enabled from portal, it will take time to refresh the UWL.
second thing, if that workitem not approved and you are looking for approval from R3 side, then got SWIA tcode and input the workitem against 1st parameter "Identification" and execute(F8), it will takes you into next screen, in this screen, select the workitem and press "without check"(shift+F5), it will prompt " Approve, Reject " buttons. Now you can take decission on this workitem.
Hope this will resolve your issue.

Calling BAPI on click of Approve/Reject button

Hello All,
I have a GP Application in which the initiator fills out a form which goes for approval to the approver.....now once the Approver clicks on Approve/Reject button i want to call a BAPI to update certain fields in the R/3 ......since those 2 buttons are part of the standard SAP Visual Approval Callable Object ....please let me know if this is possible....
Any help would be highly appreciated.
Regards.,
Anil

Hello Anil!
Basically, you have two options:
1.) You can invoke the BAPI from your VC model when the button is clicked.
2.) You can invoke the BAPI from the GP.
First of all, you should consider wrapping the BAPI with a web service.
For option 1: Import your web service into your VC model and invoke it when the button is clicked.
For option 2: Create a callable object from you web service. In the VC you must now provide a result state, which indicates whether the approve or the reject button has been clicked. Depending on this result state you can now invoke the callable object in your GP.
I recomment option 1.
Best regards

Verify that the email preference for the users is not "disabled"
Have the user login and go to the preferences link at the top.
OR
SELECT *
FROM apps.fnd_user_preferences
WHERE preference_name = 'MAILTYPE' AND user_name = '&user' Hope this helps

UWL Approve Reject button not visible

Hello Experts,
We have implemented Portal 7.0 SP 18 and configured UWL. All task items are appearing correctly.
But approve and reject button is not visible in UWL. The same is visible in ITS screen when we click on the task.
Kindly help.
Regards,
Nirmal Sivakumar G

Hi Soral,
All workflows from ECC is causing this problem. To be precise I have configured a webflow connector to pull the tasks from SAP Inbox. The approve/Reject button should appear in UWL ivew when we select the task item. But only forward and resubmit options are visible.
I guess the problem is with SP 18 itself. Coz there are similar threads with the same scenario in SP 18.

Email button error works but gives Error message "10"

I have "attach to email" buttons on my forms. I leave the email address blank for the person to fill in themselves. It works fine but on one form (and one form only) when clicking on the button an error message window comes up - with exclamation mark and the number "10", that's it. The button works (attached the file to an email) but still gives the message. My other forms don't give this message though the buttons appear identical.
What could be causing this?
(Livecycle 8.0)
Thanks in advance, Marg

Remove the "mailto:" from the Submit tab if you have the script code written in the event.
But usually if you have "mailto:" in the submit tab and while you are preview mode, it will open two email windows. A new email with the subject as "Form Returned"..(This new email error will work only if Acrobat Pro is used by the Designer while previewing the form. If the Designer uses Acrobat Reader while previewing it does not even show any error and simply quits. You can check which one is used while previewing by going to your Windows -> Task Manager and see which EXE is running. For Acrobat Acrobat.EXE and for Reader it will be AcroRd32.EXE).
Try removing the mailto: from the Submit tab and if you still have issues, may be you can send the file to [email protected] , I can have a look at it..
Thanks

Approval/reject buttons disabled

Hello,
I am running SRM 5.0 Extended Classic.
I have a problem with approval of contracts. I have created a contract, released it and the workflow sends it to a user with approval rights. The contract can be seen in the approval inbox of this user where it says "approve contract xx" but the approve and reject buttons are grey and cannot be used.
The document is complete and in the workflow preview, I can see that it is waiting for approval. The user is correct
Any ideas why this happens?

Direct Approval/Rejection buttons bid invitation

Hi,
The Direct Approval/Rejection buttons are disabbled while approving Bid in users Approval inbox.
Actually I have activated wf 14500026, and the wf is only activated manually for the creator.
I have added in tcode SWL1, tasks
TS79007914
TS79007919
TS79007920
and maintained the entry for Attributes EC_DECISION.
however, buttons still disabled.
Many thanks!!
Patricia

Hi,
This is not my solution.
Let me explain clearly
1. After SC created, Buyer will add Bidders.
2. Click on approval preview.
3. It will be showing one concerned approver for Ex: ( MGR1)
4. A mail will be sending to MGR1.
5. After that MGR1 should log in and clicked on " approve all items " button.
6. In the next screen it is asking final confirmation with YES/NO buttons.
Here my requirement is " I need to be displayed a text above these buttons(YES/NO) ".
So, Where do i need to do that, I mean where it is maintianing.
Please do the needful...!
I will be very much grateful to you..!

POR (Purchase Order Response): Approve/Reject buttons not functioning

Hi folks,
In SRM 5.0 extended classic scenario, a POR is sent to EBP from SUS. The POR is outside tolerances so it triggers workflow -WS14500019. When a user goes into their Approval Inbox they have the option to Approve or Reject the POR using the Approve/Reject icons.
When a user clicks on either the Approve or Reject icon, a message appears at the bottom of the screen:
"Work Item is been Processed, Please Wait"
When this message disappears the work item is not processed and remains in the Approver's inbox unprocessed.
If anybody has any suggestions it would be greatly appreciated.
Regards,
Pat

Hello Nagarajan,
Thanks for the response. I have realised that the Approve/Reject buttons should not be used with PORs. I am still a little unsure as to how it is supposed to work though. Take the scenario below:
A buyer orders a quantity of 10
The vendor responds with a quantity of 7 which is outside the tolerances and goes to approval
If the buyer does not accept the response but wants to request 10 again what should they do?
1) If they copy the POR to their PO a changed PO is sent to the Vendor with a quantity of 7.
2) If they copy the PO to the POR but untick the header and item levels in the POR, the SUS PO remains in a status of Confirmed so the vendor will ship the goods.
Which options above is most suitable when the Buyer wants to request the 10 again? Option 2 and then to manually change the PO to a quantity of 10?
Regards
Pat
