Approval process - 'System Validation' - Pending - Assigned to xelsysadm

I created an approval process for a resource.
Whenever a request for a resource is generated for a user, the approval request is sent to a group based on user's location.
Steps:
-I created an approval process in which I added a task which sends the request to the appropriate group.
-An adapter is attached to this task which determines the group to which request is to be sent.
-I have added tcComplete adapter to the Standard Approval
However, after the request is approved by the approver(belonging to the above mentioned group), the resource does not get provisioned and the system validation is shown 'pending' - assigned to user 'xelsysadm'.
I am not able to figure out why the system validation is 'pending' and going to 'xelsysadm'.
Note that I am logged in as xelsysadm and the above pending 'system validation' task is present under 'Open Tasks' under 'To-Do-List'. Once I set the response from there as 'Complete', the resource is provisioned.

I tried provisioning another user, got the oim api error again:
INFO,18 May 2010 13:28:36,925,[XELLERATE.WEBAPP],Key not found in Custom Resource Bundle: newKey = GC.GCPROV.ADAPTER_OIMAPIERROR

OIM System Validation Pending

Hello All
I have about 6k users stuck in system validation pending since I started an access policy but needed to go back and set the auto-save option. I can click the user forms and just hit save and everything goes through as it should, but I was wondering if there was a way to re-save all those users in that state so that they can be cleared from that state. I don't want to have to go through and do it all manually so a scheduled task or adapter would be helpful if it is available. Any help you guys can give would be appreciated.
Nick

I assume that the system validation is on a resource rather than on the user itself.
I would write a scheduled task (skeleton: http://iamreflections.blogspot.com/2010/08/oim-howto-scheduled-tasks.html) that simply runs findUsers for each "problem user" and then call updateUser. I think you can do this without actually changing anything but if that doesn't work simply read and rewrite the same data into the same attribute.

Approval process monitor status turn to "Initiated" instead of "Pending", so awe is not routed

When I submit a transaction, after successful submission in approval process monitor the status has turn "Initiated" instead of "Pending". That's why it's showing "Not Routed" for the next approving person. So that worklist is not populated.
Please suggest me to resolve this issue.
Process Monitor as follows after submission:
Separation Approval Process (Stage)
Initiated (Monitor status)
Approval Routing from Unit HR (Path)
Not Routed    (Step)                                                    Not Routed      (Step)

Looking at the error message "The Network Adapter could not establish the connection" , It appears hostname and port may be incorrect. Review the targets.xml under E:\oracle\product\10.2.0\db_1\SAP_solman_SDB\emd and
emoms.properties under E:\oracle\product\10.2.0\db_1\SAP_solman_SDB\config folder to make sure host ( sap_solman) and port (1527) are correct.
As far as setting the environment variables goes, you can go to control panel -> system -> advanced -> environment variables and set the ORACLE_HOME and ORACLE_SID

Error in Process-Please specify a valid account assignment error inBackend

Hi Gurus,
I am abaper and I am new to SRM technical.
One Po is already there in SRM 4.0 and ERP with cost center and profit center replicated as it is. But my user is chaning the price of the PO in SRM. It is showing as 'Error in Process'
I check in backend error in portal and in rz20 'Please specify a valid account assignment' is error is coming.
This is technical or functional issue.
I checked in BBP_PD_PO_TRANSFER_EXEC, BBP_PO_INBOUND i find the error message as SE E181, But how can i rectify this error.
when they changed the price for other pos it is replicating in backend but why for this po it is giving error, I checked all Cost center and profit center and all are fine...
Please do the needful.
Thanks,
Kiran

Hi,
You said change of price in other POs is working fine. Only one PO goes into error.
Is the cost center, profit center same as the ones in error PO ?
If it's possible, can you also try this:
- Create a PO in ERP directly using the same CC, Profit center as account assignment data
- Check the other account assignment data that got defaulted (e.g. Business area etc) --> Verify whether this data is same in error PO also.
- Could you create the PO successfully ?

How Assigned TO field will be updated in "start Approval process" Task Action

I have created a reusable workflow in sharepoint designer. Am using “start Approval process“ Task Action. I have a question in “start Approval process“ Task Action.
I have username field in the list. I have created a task form field with name username in “start Approval process“ Task Action. I have assigned list username field to task field username field.
I have entered a user details in list user name field for new list item. Once the workflow has been started for that item a mail has been sent to the user whose name I have entered in the list user name field. Task has been assigned to the user whose name
I have entered in the list user name field.
When I have checked start Approval process task a send mail activity is present (Email Task notification currentitem:Assigned TO) .
I have not update Assigned To field explicitly.
1. Where / how the Assigned TO field is getting updated ?
2. Workflow Initiation and task creation will be done internally by the user who created the item in the list?
Thanks

Hi,
According to your post, my understanding is that you had questions about the “start Approval process“ Task Action.
When you add the “start Approval process“ Task Action, you need to to select the user who the task assign to.
To assign the user whose name you have entered in the list user name field, you add action as below:
After you select the user, the Assigned TO field is getting updated.
In addition, workflow Initiation and task creation will be done internally by the user who created the item in the list.
Thank you for your understanding.

Approver Details Not Visible After Changing the Approval Process

Hi Gurus,
This expense report belongs to an open approval task when an approval process has ended its validity date.
After a new approval process is activated, all pending approval tasks experience the issue of approver details not showing.
In order to reproduce following steps need to be done :
1. Deactivate the current approval process and activate the new approval process.
2. When the status of the recently deactivated approval process is "Ended With Open Tasks", go to the "Show Open Approval Tasks" to
see the open approval tasks.
3 Check the Cost Assignment area for expense report which is in the open approval tasks.
3. Approver Details are available.
4. The approver sees the expense report on his/her approval list.
Once the approver approves, it doesn't go out of his/her approval list and the expense report is still pending for approval.
To determine if the expense report has no other pending approval from anyone else, there should be the approver
details but the issue is it doesn't show up.
The expense report is also stuck on the approver's approval list even after approving.
Workaround provided to the Customer: Recall the ER and submit again for approval.
But as per customer there should be a background job to refresh the expense report to reflect the approval details.
And issue should not occur as explained on the point 4.
Kindly suggest if anything is possible to improve the system behavior.
Regards,
Rahul Mishra

Hi Rahul,
Although we have a workaround, I believe a permanent solution has to be implemented.
In cases when an expense report has more than one approver (for example there are 4 approvers) and the 3 approvers had already approved, I think it will not be good to recall the expense report and resubmit because the traveler will have to seek for approval again from all the approvers.

Approval Process in OIM

Hi All,
I am new to OIM. I tried creating an approval process for SUN Java System directory server.for this i create an task assignment adapter and added it to the Approval process. the problem here is that when i tried to assign the "Resource" through Requests tab on Admin interface to any user it goes to approver inbox but after approving the request user is not provisioned in the target resource.It shows nothing in the Resource profile page of the user also.
Any pointer or help will be appreciated.

Aaah....i think i was not able to explain my problem properly...let me explain you what i did...
1. i have imported the connector for SUN java system directory server as explained on oracle site in Oracle by example.
2. This connector have created the iPlanet user (provisioning) process for iPlanet User object name automatically having create process and no. of conditional processes (Disable user, enable user etc..).
3. Now i wrote one Adapter having approval logic and attach it to one custom process of Approval type and assign it to iPlanet User as Object type. There is no table definition attached to it and when i tried to attach the available Form "UD_IPNT_USR" to it, it gives me some sdk error.
After this i have tested the approval process in two ways...
1. Through admin console (as xelsysadm), i have created a test user and assign this user to resource "iPlanet User" through Resource Profile combo tab. The user is successfulll provisioned with no approval required but i was expected that it should go to approver as per logic.
2. In second scenerion, i assigned the resource through Request tab (Requests-->Resources-->Grant Resource). It goes to xelsysadm Pending approval items first and after this approval it goes to the other approver as per logic defined in adapter. After this approver approved the Request, it goes complete with no provisioning. I am wondering if i need to attach the Approval and Provision Process so that first it goes to approver and after approver approves it, gets automatically provisioned.
Please look into the problem and suggest some solution. I am sure it should not be as tedious as i made it, but i don't have other option :(

Approval Process doesn't work correctly

Hi,
I developed custom request template for self-request provisioning for resource with child table data. Also I deployed custom Request Dataset only with child attribute field definition for this resource:
<request-data-set
xmlns = "http://www.oracle.com/schema/oim/request"
xmlns:xsi = "http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
xsi:schemaLocation = "http://www.oracle.com/schema/oim/request"
name = "ProvisionResourceHP"
entity = "HP"
operation = "PROVISION">
<AttributeReference
available-in-bulk = "true"
length = "100"
widget = "text"
type = "String"
attr-ref = "UD_HP_ROLES"
name = "Roles">
     <AttributeReference
     lookup-code = "Lookup.HP.AppRoleList"
available-in-bulk = "true"
required = "false"
     length = "100"
widget = "lookup"
     type = "String"
     attr-ref = "AppRole"
     name = "AppRole"
          primary="true"/>
</AttributeReference>
</request-data-set>
When this request approved by all participants of the approval process, Resource do not in provisioned status! In the resource history only - System Validation status Pending!!!

I resolved this issue but not complitly. I checked Auto Save Form check box on Process Form and its worked.
But I do not need Auto Save, because on child table attrubute i don't have any prepop adapter so it always been unpopulated during direct provisioning....
How to solve this new issue???

OIM 11g Approval Process

Hi Expert/All,
May I have assistance regarding the OIM 11g?
Currently, I already create one approval (only 1 level approval) for some resource in OIM 11g, then I'm continue to test the resource with two below way:
1. If I'm try to add "New Resource" directly by xelsysadm via manage user menu (without approval process), the provisioning process was successfully creating new account in the target system.
2. The wierd is if I'm try to test Self-service request by user, after approval by last level approval, then there is no provisioning activity by OIM system, it is like OIM do nothing. The request status is show "Obtaining Template Approval" and history approval is complete by manager user (only 1 level approval)
My question is, does it still required any configuration for completing the provisioning process after the approval process?
Thanks,
Ricky R

Hi Kevin,
Thanks for the information, but it still do nothing, OIM did not continue the provisioning account to target system event I already assign SYSTEM ADMINISTRATOR roles to the user and manager. How I can trace this logs? currently I'm just look at the oim_server1.log at <OIM_DOMAIN>/severs/oim_server1/logs. Is there any other log file can we use to trace the app server logs?
Thanks,
Ricky R

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.

Approval process (Release strategy of scheduling agreement)

Hi,
Recently we are trying to implement the approval process of scheduling agreements.
Client requirement is when ever there is a change in price irrespective of the following
1. Retrospective price change in any line item
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

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.

Error during approval Process flow in Process controlled workflow

Hello Experts,
We are in SRM 7.0 classic scenario using Process controlled workflow.WE recently connected a new backend R/3 system to our SRM system i.e we now have 2 R/3 backend system connected to SRM system
It is regarding the two new additional account assignment categories that came into picture when we connected the new R/3 backend system to our SRM system, i.e. Asset and Network.
There seems to be some problem with the approval workflow for those SHC, that have such Acc *** Cats.
Please find below my obeservations:
- if you have just one line item in the SHC, and this item is either booked on Asset or on Network, than everything goes fine. After the Acc *** approval, the PR is created in R/3
- if you have SC with a mix between an "old" Acc *** Cat (Cost Centre, WBS and Order) and one of the "new" Acc *** Cats, than the workflow is not working as required --- the manager, that is responsible for the accounting approval of the two positions (e.g Cost Centre and Asset) gets only one work item in his approval overview --- in that work item, the two positions are there, but the Asset one is grayed out --- so, the Manager approves only the Cost Centre positions and than the SC is no longer with the approver --- if you observe the SC now from the requisitioner point of view, the status of the line items in the approval process overview of both(!) lines is "approved", but the overall status of the SC is still "in approval"
Can you all experts plz let us know why this is happening and how this can be resolved?
Any pointers will be highly appreciated.
Thanks & Regards,
RKS

Hi,
What is Resp. Resolver Name and Decision Type in your Process Level Definition? Did you create custom agent BADI implementation?

Approval process - 2 users in stage

Dear all,
Question about the approval process.
I have a stage where 2 users can approve, but only one is required
It works fine when they approve document. As soon as one user approve, the originator user receive alert and can create the document.
However when they want not to approve , the system ask for both user to not approve the request before changing the status of the request from pending to rejected and sending the alert to the user.
If only one say no, the status remains pending, and an action of the second user is required to make the system change the status.
Why to approve, only one is required, and to reject, both are required? is there a way to have the same process in approval than in reject ?
Thank you
Sébastien

Dear Sébastien,
This is in the initial design of this process. We can do nothing about it.
You may post a DRQ here http://forums.sdn.sap.com/forum.jspa?forumID=265 or on Idea Place for this request.
Thanks,
Gordon
