Approval process should proceed if deadlins is missed
Hi all,
In the workflow WS10400002 (One-step approval) in SRM, when the deadline had exceeded the approval should happen automatically.
While checking in the latest end tab, an alert mail can be triggered. but how do we make sure that the approval process happens automatically if the deadline is missed.
Thanks and regards
Kishan
In the Latest End tab you need to make a Modelled deadline not a Display Text. If modelled deadline is done you have to name an outcome that branches out from the task where deadline is set. Now you use this step to complete the approval step automatically and after that create a Process control step that will complete the Workflow.
Just follow the steps
1)You can use Latest End Tab in a Step which is attached to a task. Use Modelled deadline. Using this another branch is created from the step.
2)Activate the Outcome Processing obsolete for the Step that needs to be sent to the Manager.
3) Now put a process control in the branch that has been created due to modelled deadline. Use "Set Workitem to Obsolete" in the Function and provide the Step number in which the deadline step is incorporated.
4) Now create another step at the branch Processing obsolete of the step that has the deadline and copy the above step with deadline removing the deadline part. This step is only for manager.
use this accordingly in your Workflow.

This would ensure that your approval processes would run in serial manner for a single request.

Hello Experts,
I wonder if it is possible to enable approval process for a folder and all the folders that in it. i mean when i enable approval and set the steps the same approval process should be enabled. if this isn't possible then this is ridiculous because i will have to open all the folders and set the approval seperately. Plz help me with this.I m very thankful to u.
Any helpful answers will be regarded with points.Hi Rajat,
I have never tried this.
But, must say its a good thought.
What I can say is : Try mapping a folder(having subfolders) to EP by making a File Repository Manager.
Now put a document in one of the sub folders and see what happens.
There can be two possibilities:
1)Either the FRM will recognize the document and will send for approval
2)Or it will not recognise the sub folders.
I am not in access to a EP server presently.
Please try this and reply back.
I hope it helps.

As such there is no system functionality to achieve what is required..
Please create a program to check for deadline and use a workflow approve FM to explicitly approve your cart.. And run this program as a batch job..
Hope this helps.. Please let me know if you have more questions (or need the FM to approve)..
Regards

Approval process missing payload
Hi,
I have created a custom soa compsite/approval process and it works fine ..only thing is the approver isnt getting the request payload (which contains the information of the request) so in the approvers task tab there isnt any req id it doesnts shows the requesters name and other details ....the OIM log shows the error
IAM-3050082 : An error occurred while unreserving User attribute and corresponding request ID is 144.:144>
I am checked and rechecked all the steps without any success. Please help me out here
Thank youDoes the approvers tab show anything? Also how about the request instance in EM? What does it show? Does it show in fault state? What is the error message at the fault? Also you need to paste your error stack trace from OIM logs if any and the OIM version.Are you seeing this will all your approval processes?

you are inserting a value too large for REQUEST_APPROVALS.APPROVAL_STATUS column. It should contain values like COMPLETED, approved, rejected etc... Check your custom approval process again.

ApproverObjects in multi approval process
I am trying to call a multi approval process, but it never sends out any approvals, it just skips out of it. My understanding is that approverObjects needs to passed in which should be The list of approver objects where each approver object contains the approvers name and delegators name(s) if any. I tried to pass in a list with accountId but it didn't work, and it gave me an error. I think its looking for a specific kind of object. Anybody know what should be in that list? Here are the errors:
om.waveset.util.WavesetException: Couldn't find method getApprover() in class java.lang.String java.lang.NoSuchMethodException: java.lang.String.getApprover()
com.waveset.util.WavesetException: Couldn't find method getDelegator() in class java.lang.String java.lang.NoSuchMethodException: java.lang.String.getDelegator()
com.waveset.util.WavesetException: WorkflowServices.getDelegates: missing accountId or accountIdList
com.waveset.util.WavesetException: Action null used unresolved variable approver as an owner name.
thxHi,
Please pass list of approver in the argument under "approvers" which contain only account id. Then only it able to get the approver request to the user.

FA approver changes should not lead the cart to buyer
Hi all,
FA(Financial approver) changes the Product category, cart should not go back to buyers and if there is the change in Purchase types then it should redetermine approvals based on new purchase types.
In our current scenario, if FA approver changes the product category then it leads the cart to buyer for sourcing.so now the requirement is if FA approver changes the product category it should not leads to buyer.
Please suggest your thoughts to proceed.
thanks,
sibi.Hi,
Please check the BBP_WFL_SECURITY personalization key in personalization tab of PFCG or SU01 transaction.
BBP_WFL_SECUR_BADI is also available.
No authorization
Changes to the document are not allowed while it is being approved.
Low
Changes can be made to the document. The approval workflow is restarted after every change.
Medium
Changes can be made to the document. After every change, the approval workflow either continues or is restarted.
The system evaluates the start conditions and restarts the workflow if a new approval is required as a result of the change. If this is not the case, the approval workflow continues.
High
Changes can be made to the document. The current approval process always continues. A new approval workflow is not started when the document is changed.

Auto approval process in workflow
Hi,
We are implementing customized workflow with approval/rejection process
There should be a auto approval process when agent does not complete task within 3 days.
When the approval is done then we are sending emails and performing some actions.
When the auto approval happnes after 3 days we do not want the workflow to terminate but it should end.
Kindly suggest if it is possible.
Thanks & Regards
RahulRahul,
You can use a 'modeled deadline' to set the original workitem to obsolete after (say) 3 days.
There is a wizard available to help you with this (in ECC 6.0).
Then, on the obsolete outcome branch, you can add a new (background) step that approves
the item automatically. (This is assuming you have an 'approval' method available for the object).
hope this helps

OIM - Approval process available on updates/modifications of a resource ?
Hello,
I would like to implement a typical workflow :
1) UserA is able to provision a resource for other users. He provisions it for UserB. There's an approval process which says that it's UserB's manager (ManagerB) who will approve this request. UserA provisions the resource.
2) ManagerB approves the request
3) UserB is now able to use the resource and modify it. He modifies it and his modifications aren't effective until his manager's approval.
4) ManagerB approves the modification request, ensuring that the data is correct
The main goal of this kind of workflow is that every action of the resource user means that an according approval process is fired.
Right now I'm unable to implement such a process. Another user said on this forum that approval events are fired on grant/enable/disable/revoke events. I would like to know if it's possible to use this kind of processes on ANY modification of a given resource.
And by the way, is there any mean to know exactly which are the minimal permissions/rights to have to be able to provision a resource to a user in a workflow as described earlier ? Right now I'm working with 177 different rights, whose names aren't quite helpful...
Thanks in advance !Ajp , following your instructions, to enable approval on attribute changing (e.g, for resource named 'MyResource') I should take the following steps:
1) Create a resource object called "Dummy ResObj"
2) Create a Process Definition of type Approval (with respective task assignment adapters) and associate it with 'Dummy ResObj'.
3) Create a task inside this to get the manager's approval
4) Open a Process Definition of type Provisioning associated with the resource 'MyResource'
5) Create a Process Task Adapter to provision target user to the Dummy ResObj
- this adapter would get passed the resource object key and the user key
- the adapter will create a request (on adding user)
- it would also utilitize the tcUserOperations API
7) Create a Process Definition for Dummy ResObj
8) Create a Process Task Adapters to provision and de-provision target user to the Dummy ResObj
9) Create tasks in the 'Dummy ResObj' provisioning process that calls this process task adapters
Am I right? Haven't I missed something? -

Approval Process Not triggering?
Hello,
I have created a simple Approval process in which request should go to the Beneficiary manager through JDEVELOPER. I have also registered this Approval process with OIM.
After that i have created two Approval policies..
REQUEST LEVEL--
This is Auto Approved.
Approval Rule :: Template Name equals Provision Resource.
Set Priority : 1 (Request Type=Provision Resource)
OPERATIONAL LEVEL --
Approval Process attcahed at this level.
Approval Rule :: Template Name equals Provision Resource.
When i am creating a request for a particular resource the request is getting assigned to XELSYSADM by default (as per the Developers Guide for OIM 11g, if no approval policy is attached with the template the default Approval process gets trigerred and the request gets assigned to XELSYSADM.)
Can somebody help me by telling why the Default Approval process is getting triggered and not the one which i have attached at the Operational level?
Am i missing Something?
Thanks in Advance.As i have mentioned earlier, it is configured such that the appropriate approval process is triggered when a request for particualr resources is requested.
There are multiple tasks in each one of the approval process.
The approvals were triggering well 2 days ago and suddenly there seams to be a problem in the approval triggering.
The approval process was not edited / updated for any of these resources. Wondering why suddenly OIM does not work well for the approval triggering???
here the problem is none of the configured approval processes are triggering. Its not just one approval process but all 12 approval processes (including standard approval) are not triggering when the request is raised.
Appreciate your help till now, please suggest me how to make OIM trigger the approvals again!
Thanks -
Approved invoices can not be edited - Approval process
Hi Experts -
I have recently raised an incident with SAP about Approval process - the complete message and support reply is as follows - but i believe we need a change in the approval process - if the approval required is only one but you have defined two people (Either or OR) in the approver list - the system should allow the document to be edited if one of the approvers reject it.
please let me know and i believe we need a change in design - unless otherwise a solid reason is given to justify the existing design
10.07.2009 10:32 Description (English) by SRS Manian
We have created approval procedure for all the invoices which are entered into the system., The
'Accts' user enters the invoice into the system - the invoice comes for approval to 'Manager' user.
When the Manager opens the invoice via Alert window - he/she wants to modify certain information
(lines as well as Sales person) and approve it.
The invoice which gets opened from the alert window - does not allow the user 'Manager' to modify at
all. All the information on the invoice are greyed out.
The system should allow the user 'Manager' to modify the information. Since the manager has full
authorization to the system.

Dear Manian,
Thank you for contacting us.
When the originator sends the document for manager's approval, note that the at that stage, the document is still in the 'Approval Process'. This is because the system is waiting for the 'Manager' to 'Approve or Reject' the document. Hence, looking at the Document, it is still in 'Draft - Pending' Status.
When the document is in 'Draft-Pending' Status, the document is not available for editing, because the system considers that it is still in the waiting process. In your case, the manager cannot edit t he document.
To amend the document, an action is required from the approver either to reject it first. Once rejected, it can be amended and re-sent for approval.
I have checked our knowledge base and noted that there is an article which describes the approval process. Please refer to the Expert on Phone Wiki Article (March 2009) with title: Why a draft documen t in an approval process cannot be modified by the originator?
The link will provide the explanation:

Thanks for the reply. The scenario is when the Manager receives the
document for approval, he wanted to edit and add it. Your reply (and
documentations) states that it needs to be rejected first before it is
available for editing. When it is gets rejected - the person who
orignated the document gets an alert and he can edit it. Here the
Manager must get an alert so that he can edit the Rejected document.
When the 'manager' rejects the document, and goes back to the alert
window to open the document - it is still greyed out !!
How does the 'manager' reject the document and edits it ?

Dear Manian,
If after the Manager rejects it and still the document is not editable (greyed out), it means that the document may still be in the 'Approval Process'. When it is greyed out, what is the status of the document in the header? Does it say 'Rejected' or 'Pending'?
If it is still in 'Pending' mode, please verify the number of 'Approvers' set in the 'Stages' tab of the 'Approval Template - Setup' window. If there is more than one user listed as 'Approver', and o nly 1 approval is required, the system provides an opportunity to other 'Approvers' to approve or reject the document. If in your case, the number of approvers is 2, and manager 'rejected' it, the sys tem still keeps the document in Pending status as it waits for another approver's decision to reject or approve it.
Also, verify the number of 'Approvals' required. If the number of 'Approvers' who have not rendered their decision is greater than or equal to the 'Approvals' required (e.g. approvers - 2, required ap provals - 2) the system keeps the document within the approval process. This is to allow the other 'Approvers' to decide on the document.
I hope this clarifies the behaviour. If you can provide us a step by step screenshot of the issue, this may help us to provide a more accurate response.

2. Current price change in any line item
3. Future price updation in SA in any line item
4. New addition of line item
the system should trigger the release process (i.e. Approval process).
Our idea is to design the approval process based on document type and net value of SA. Based on which trigger should happened. But when we test it we find the following issues.
1. Trigger is not happening for future date price change or price for new period as the net value of SA is based on validity time.
Becuase the net value change will happen only on that onwards..
Also we are not using any cumulative pallned values in agreements.
Any can suggest the best solution to over come this..or Any user exit is avaliable to handle this issue.
regards,
K.Sundaresan.Below are the (changed) item fields :
Purchasing Document Item Change Date AEDAT
Item Delivery Date EINDT
Schedule Line is "Fixed "FIXKZ
Below are the (changed) header fields :
Release Indicator: Purchasing Document FRGKE
Release status FRGZU
Purchasing document processing state PROCSTAT
Item and header changes have same "Change document number " and transaction code "ME38" , this happened only in some cases,Rel Strategy is on document type level ,I am also confused on this .
Please assist on this -

</Fault>Hi,
I have run into the same problem with SOA 11.1.1.5 version. In my case after fixing the following two errors it seems to work fine.
If you have followed the guide, there must be some errors:
First the java code if copied then contains an extra enter value:
Instead of:
"try {
System.out.println("Prototype for invoking an OIM API from a SOA Composite");
System.out.println("RTM Usecase: Self Registration Approval by Organization
Administrator");"
Use the following:
"try {
System.out.println("Prototype for invoking an OIM API from a SOA Composite");
System.out.println("RTM Usecase: Self Registration Approval by Organization Administrator");"
The other error is that you should not use <BEAHOME>/oracle_common/modules/oracle.jps_11.1.1/jps-manifest.jar, but the <BEAHOME>/oracle_common/modules/oracle.jps_11.1.1/jps-api.jar in jdeveloper. After these the deployment to the application server works fine for me.
Maybe you are looking for
