Approval request clears serial nos. created

When adding document we give serial nos. but when the document goes for approval it clears the serial nos. already given and we have to enter again after approval. How to avoid this?

While sending document for approval,document is saved in draft,
document that contains serial/batch numbers will not be
saved in draft mode.
You need to add once again serial numbers to document
after approval.
Issue what you mentioned is addressed in SAP 2007B version
batch/serial numbers is saved in draft mode,SAP B1
will check whether you entered serial/batch numbers in documents
after approval at the time saving document.
Hope solution will solve the problem.

Trigger internal serial nos creation for inbound delivery using DELVRY03

Hi all,
I am working in ECC 6.0 I need to update serial nos in the inbound delivery. The internal serial nos. that will be generated by the system, I have to trap them for a given delivery and map it to a set of external serial nos.(length is 40 chars) and update in a Z table.
For changing the delivery, I am using idoc DELVRY03 (message SHPCON). Within the idoc I am not able to find any such field which will trigger the automatic creation of internal serial nos. In case of idoc MBGMCR03 (goods movement), there is a field E1BP2017_GM_ITEM_CREATE-SERIALNO_AUTO_NUMBERASSIGNMENT which when set to 'X', the internal serial nos are automatically generated and can be found in table SER03.
I want a similar thing for the DELVRY03 idoc. Can anyone help me on this?
If not possible through Idoc, then whats the other option?
My aim is to just get the internal serial nos created through delivery change activity.
Note - The serial no. profile cannot have the option of serial no. usage set to '04 - automatic' in SPRO as per the client's business process.
Thanks,
Shoma

Hi Shoma,
copy the FM which is assigned to your processcode and copy to ZFM and write your modifications on that ZFM.
It will resolves your problem.

How I can create an approval request for a User Delete operation usin API? Can anyone quide me? Any help is strongly appreciated..
BR,
Aliye

You can use the exact same technique for any of the other requests submissions through APIs that have been posted on this message forum. Just supply the template name for your request template you plan to use.
Here is a page of sample code for requests. http://java.net/projects/openptk/sources/svn/show/branches/Oracle/OIM11g/examples/java/OIMClient/src/oim/client/request?rev=1402

Unable to run extended Approve Requests Application from Launchpad

We are implementing the approve request application for custom workflows and we have set up our eclipse environment and made the necessary changes to run our application locally in the Fiori Sandbox provided as part of the UI5 toolkit. We have extended the application by creating an extension project and fiori extensions in this extension project.
We are able to run this extended application also in the Sandbox and test it there.
When we upload the extended application to the ABAP server and change the URL in the Launchpad transaction LPD_CUST to point to the extended application we are getting an error.
I suspect it is related to how we have set up our component.js file for the extended application since it is responsible for merging the extended application with the parent one at runtime and displaying the extended application.
The error I am getting in the console is
Error - found in negative cache: 'cross/fnd/approve/requests/Component.js' from /sap/bc/ui5_ui5/sap/yca_all_apve/Component.js: TypeError: Cannot call method 'extend' of undefined core.js:78

ESS leave request workflow : not able to approve request

Hi experts,
When i create leave request, work item for approving request is not coming in the approver's bussiness workplace. I am using std workflow WS12300111. Is there any customization needs to be done ??
please help me
Pointes will be rewarded
Regards,
Sameer

Hi Samee,
Did you select General Task in the steps of workflow you have an agent?
Sónia
You have a chief position on the Organization Unit where you have the employees?
Sometimes it's possible to forget this one:
Transaction SWDD, select the workflow WS12300111 and press CTRL+F8 (Basic Data)
there's another button "Agent assignment for task" (SHIFT+F9)
set task to "General task" with the "Attributes..." Button. (EVERY user can start this task).
And check this to:
Using transaction SWFVISU, check the following entries and correct these where required:
TS12300097 Java WebDynpro APPLICATION LeaveRequestApprover
                 PACKAGE sap.com/ess~lea
TS12300116 Java WebDynpro
                 APPLICATION LeaveRequest
                 PACKAGE sap.com/ess~lea
(check this, because usually you have an error, instead of sap.com you have com.sap)
Register the work items again. Additional information about registering work items is available in the UWL documentation.
After re-register the System Alias again in the UWL - THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT

Ad hoc approval request in workflow

Hi experts,
Ad hoc approval request in workflow ,user should forward work item multiple times for different users . Ad hoc approval multiple times to the same or different employees. Could you please provide me steps by steps how I need to create ad hoc .

Hello Ganesh !
                Hope you want to define ad hoc agent agent assignment.
               If so, choose the activity step(the task's work item that you want to send) in workflow and from the menu take path : Extras -> Ad_hoc functions -> Enable the Adhoc Agent Assignment.
               In expression part , now you can find &Agent_0001.Agents& have automatically appeared.The one who want to start the workflow,can mention the SAP logon id of the agents to whom the work items needs to be sent.

Approve Request Fiori app - UI Extensions not working

We have configured the standard Approve Requests app to show Customer Invoice approval and it works fine. And there are 3 requirements I am trying to achieve in our sandbox on top of the Approve Requests (CA_ALL_APV) app.
1. Add a custom UI field in the info tab of the details page.
2. Enable to show the attachment and notes tab (standard app has these 2 not visible)
3. Enable multiple approval(I think i'll start another discussion for this requirement since standard doesn't support mass approval-which is such a negative for this app)
After downloading the application and adding it to an SAPUI5 project in eclipse, I made the following changes:
For requirement 1, I created InfoFields.fragment.xml where i have the below code:
<core:FragmentDefinition xmlns="sap.m" xmlns:core="sap.ui.core">
    <Label text="Vendor ID"/>
      <Text text="1234"/>
    <Label text="Custom Field 2"/>
      <Text text="Custom Text 2"/>
</core:FragmentDefinition>
Additionally for requirement 1 along with requirement 2, i created a customizing object under the metadata object with the below code in Component.js:
customizing : {
"sap.ui.viewModifications": {
"cross.fnd.approve.requests.view.S3": {
"ARAttachmentIconTabFilter": {
"visible": true,
"cross.fnd.approve.requests.view.S3": {
"ARNoteIconTabFilter": {
"visible": true,
"sap.ui.viewExtensions" : {
"cross.fnd.approve.requests.view.S3":{
"CustomerExtensionForInfoTabContent": {
className: "sap.ui.core.Fragment",
fragmentName: "cross.fnd.approve.requests.view.InfoFields",
type : "XML"
After making the changes, I uploaded the WebContent folder of the project back to the backend with the report /UI5/UI5_REPOSITORY_LOAD.
I named the new BSP application ZVCA_ALL_APV5.
How i tested? I tested it in 2 ways:
1. From SE80, Right Click and test. This does not load anything. A blank page is shown. The console in the IE developer tools shows no errors.
2. Change the URL in LPD_CUST to point to the new BSP. The run the fiori launchpad. this will show the tile for Approve Requests with the correct number of workitems as 2. But once you click on the tile, an error popup is shown which reads 'Failure - Unable to start App'. The console in IE has an error: "TypeError - Object doesn't support property or method '_createRequestUrl' Approve Requests".
I made the changes to Component.js and did not touch Component-dbg.js or Component-preload.js. Do i need to change these 2 files too each time i change Component.js?
We are in process to decide if we really want to use Fiori or go with Kony. So I would want to get Fiori working in sandbox with our custom requirement to give it a chance.
@Fiori Gurus: What do you think the problem is? Am i making any silly mistake here?

Varun

Serial Nos and Delivery Creation

Hi,
We are using SAP Business One 2005 A SP 01 PL 08.
We have created a Sales Order in which we have an item which is a managed by serial nos. We now try to convert this sales order into a delivery note and when we do so we are asked to select the serial nos. We selected the serial nos and when the delivery is created the following error occurs.
Error No: -10, Message: [DLN1.WhsCode][line: 0] , 'The selected quantity of batch/serial numbers is greater than the open quantity.'
Actually the quantity that we have in the Sales Order and the Serial nos selected are one and the same.
This is the code that we use to create the delivery note. (Assuming there is only one Line in the Sales Order)
Dim oSO As SAPbobsCOM.Documents
Dim oDlv As SAPbobsCOM.Documents
oSO = pcompany.GetBusinessObject(SAPbobsCOM.BoObjectTypes.oOrders)
oDlv = pcompany.GetBusinessObject(SAPbobsCOM.BoObjectTypes.oDeliveryNotes)
' iSoDocEntry contains Sales Order no
If oSO.GetByKey(iSoDocEntry) = True Then
oDlv.CardCode = oSO.CardCode
                oDlv.DocDueDate = oSO.DocDueDate
                oDlv.Comments = "Based on Sales Order " & iSoDocEntry & "." & oSO.Comments
                oDlv.Address = oSO.Address
                oDlv.ShipToCode = oSO.ShipToCode
                oDlv.Address2 = oSO.Address2
                oDlv.AgentCode = oSO.AgentCode
                oDlv.DocType = SAPbobsCOM.BoDocumentTypes.dDocument_Items
                oDlv.DocumentSubType = SAPbobsCOM.BoDocumentSubType.bod_None
oDlv.Lines.BaseLine = iRowNo
oDlv.Lines.BaseType = SAPbobsCOM.BoAPARDocumentTypes.bodt_Order
oDlv.Lines.BaseEntry = iSoDocEntry
Dim objSerialNum As SAPbobsCOM.SerialNumbers
Dim sSerialNumbers(), sSysSerialNumbers(), sInternalSerial() As String
Dim iCount As Integer
objSerialNum = oDlv.Lines.SerialNumbers()
sSerialNumbers = sSupSerial.Split(",") ' Contains the List of Supplier Serial Nos value of the Selected serials
sSysSerialNumbers = sSysserial.Split(",") ' Contains the List of Sys Serial value of the selected serials
sInternalSerial = sInternal.Split(",") ' Contains the List of Internal Serial value of the selected serials
For iCount = 0 To sSysSerialNumbers.Length() - 1
objSerialNum.InternalSerialNumber = sInternalSerial.GetValue(iCount)
objSerialNum.ManufacturerSerialNumber = sSerialNumbers.GetValue(iCount)
objSerialNum.SystemSerialNumber = sSysSerialNumbers.GetValue(iCount)
objSerialNum.SetCurrentLine(iRowNo)
objSerialNum.Add()
Next
end if
iReturnValue = oDlv.Add()
Here when we trap using Getlasterror the error that we got is mentioned above.
Any help is welcome
thanks in advance
Ganesh.

Hi Aleksey,
I checked that and there is enough quantity for the warehouse. When we added the same through SAP without using the Add on that we have created and the delivery is created properly. So we have enough quantity of the item in the warehouse.
Thanks
Ganesh

Request for Serial Number when licensing CS6 package with CC

We're setting up our first batch of CC subscriptions for some new staff and to cater for some upgrades from CS5. However, we need to remain with CS6 likely for the rest of this year to maintain a consistent art pipeline.
If In understand correctly, I can use CCP to create and deploy only CC packages, while I need to use AAMEE to create the CS6 packages. Following: http://www.adobe.com/go/aamee_deploymentguide I created an unserialised, trial mode Flash Professional package and deployed this on a test system. At the same time, I invited a test user to our CC for Team subscription (under the VIP program) and assigned a live Flash Professional subscription to him.
The package deployed successfully (although it took an incredibly long time) and when started < i clicked the 'License this software' button. The user sioged in successfully with his newly created Adobe ID and was then asked for a serial number. Since this is a CC subscription, I don't have a serial number to give him. I had assumed that the adobe ID was now associated with the license and the serial number would not be required.
How do I get past this stage when deploying this package to users? Is there some undocumented option or modification I need to make to the package?

Just to clarify this for anyone else that's reading:
The client-side AME is installed automatically with CS6 applications. It is this component that is failing to validate my CC subscription, causing the application to fall back to requesting a serial number.
After a telephone call with Abhijit, we discovered that installing the standalone CC desktop application, either before or after the CS6 package, allowed the subscription to be validated and the software activated. It seems like there's a significant bug there, or at least a lack of consideration for the possibility that clients might not have CCD installed. The workaround is just about satisfactory for my environment, but I think this could still cause trouble in some larger or educational setups.
A useful tip: The CCD installer downloadable here: https://ccmdls.adobe.com/AdobeProducts/KCCC/1/win32/CreativeCloudSet-Up.exe supports the same command line switches as msiexec, so although it's not readily deployable as an MSI, it does allow for unattended installation.

Approve Request App on Fiori Wave2 - Error

Hi,
We are trying to use the Approve Request App on Fiori Wave2.A dynamic tile has been created. While trying to launch the app from the Approver id we get a popup saying Failure-Unable to launch App. Steps mentioned in the Approve Request app on SCN (links referred : http://scn.sap.com/docs/DOC-46215 and http://help.sap.com/fiori_bs2013/helpdata/en/a8/995952d9a6617fe10000000a44538d/content.htm have been followed and checked.
Could you help us with this issue?
Attached is a screenshot of the error.
Regards,
Ann

Hi Ann,
Beside the Dynamic App Launcher Tile, you also need to add a target Mapping in your catalog.
Check if the target Launchpad role (Transaction LPD_CUST) exists in your SAP ECC system
Add an Target-Mapping Tile
•Add the Intent data
•Semantic Object WorkflowTask
•Action approveRequests
•Add Target data
•Launchpad Role UIX01CA1
•Launchpad Instance TRANSACTIONAL
•Application Alias ApproveRequests
•Add General Data
•Specify the supported form factor
Good luck, it works for me.

Approval Request assigned to DELETED User

Hi All,
I have created an approval process with type "User" and "APPROVER" as user and then I have deleted this user in OIM. But still the approval request is getting assigned to this user "APPROVER".
Is there way to assign this request to "SYSTEM ADMINISTRATOR" or user's manager or display a kind of error message in the "Approval Details" page.?
Thanks & Regards
INIYA

Don knwo why it is going to Deleted User. It shouldn't go. If it is going then you can raise SR with Oracle.
For your question, with custom Task Assignment Adapter you can assign it to System Administrator. If your Resource Object has some then you can make one more field with some Default Message.
If Approver is deleted then you can update the form field with any message you want.

Serial nos not to appear only for STO delivery

Hi All,
We have set up serialziation for Finished products. We have set up the serial no. profile so that serial no. entry is mandatory during delivery (only).
Now the client doesnt want the serial nos. to appear for deliveries created for stock transfer process.
How can this be done?
Can we set up some contol the the delivery type level?

Hi,
There is no such direct solution for control serial number assignment on basis of delivery,but I think still we can fulfill this requirement.
In OIS2
For serialization procedure maintain serial usage none or optional,so it will not be mandatory/required
Then now incompleteness procedure is based on delivery document type and delivery document item
So through this you can make it mandatory for required delivery delivery type/item and exclude it from STO

Approve Request for GRC

Hi Experts,
I am new, relatively in the mobile space. Here in our company we would like to use the Approve Request Fiori APP specifically to approve the GRC request.
The GRC server resides in other box where I have not installed Fiori. So my question is very simple. Do I need to install fiori in the GRC box in order to see all the requests? or when I created or enabled the services the System alias will be poiting to my GRC box?

Hi Jose,
Which server has NetWeaver Gateway components?
Frontend server - NetWeaver Gateway and Fiori UI. ( I guess your case is ERP)
Backend server - The server which has GFC inbox. ( I guess your case is GRC central server)
Frontend server and backend server should be connected with trusted RFC.

Approval request delayed

I've created approval procedure based on a query and it works well - documents are moved for approval and approval table is filled for selected users. The problem appears in abnormal behavior of approval request messages for these documents. Sometimes each permited user gets a message, sometimes only one or two of them and there rest receives it after few hours or after restarting SAP or never. It's an issue for approval procedures using queries only. SAP Business One 2007A SP01 PL10 HF01. Has anyone had this kind of problem and how can it be solved?
