Approver Delegation failed in GRC AC 10.0

Hi GRC,
I am looking for urgent help.
I delegated my access to respective approver in GRC AC 10.0 System and I created one Request and select manager field as my name in GRC Access Request form. As per delegation process request should go to respective approver but the request comes to me only , its not send to respective approver.
Could you please help me to resolve the issue.
System Details :- GRC AC 10.0 , SP12.
Regards,
Karnatak.

Hi Mustafa,
Sorry for late Replay.
I check that it is in active status , but not working.
And one more problam is Main approver deligates his access to backup Approver.
Now user submit the request and then system sent request to two Approver inbox (Main approver and backup Approver) but e-mail notification is sending only main Approver not to Backup Approver. in this case how backup approver can know the request is pending for his approval.
Please help me to reslove the issue.
Regards,
Karnatak.

AE 5.2 Approver Delegation working after valid to date

We have a user that set up an approver delegation with a valid to date of 06/03/2008 and as of 6/20/2008 it is still working.
Has anyone else seen this and know of a fix, besides deactivating the delegation.

Clark-
Yes, this is a bug that SAP will address in SP 9 or 10, not sure.
Right now, you have to manually make the delegation inactive or delete it...

Approver Delegation

GRC 5.3 sp9: When the AEAdmin does the Approver Delegation for a user (userA) and delegates the approval to userB, any new request goes to userB (as it should) but also goes to userA, both for approval. Where is the email for userA coming from and how do I kill it?

Hi Jack,
You cannot stop the email. It is going to both users becuase they are the next approvers. Either A or B can approve the request, so the email is sent to both of them. Hope this helps.
Thanks & Regards,
Venky.

11I - PO DOCUMENT APPROVAL MANAGER FAIL 시의 기능 개선 사항.
====================================================
PURPOSE
PO Document Approval Manager Fail 시의 기능 개선 사항에 대한 검토.
Explanation
PO 를 승인하였으나 Status 가 In-Processs 인 경우가 발생할 수있다. 이런
경우는 보통 PO Document Approval Manager 가 정지되었거나, Workflow 에서
Error 가 발생한 경우가 일반적이다.
이런 경우의 처리 방법은 Workflow Sysadmin 권한으로 Login 하여 Retry 하거
나, wfretry.sql 을 수행하여 문제가 발생한 workflow 의 진행을 재시도 하
게 된다.
Procurement Family Pack F 에서는 이같은 재시도를 자동으로 수행하는 기능
이 추가되었으며 아래의 방법으로 설정할 수있다.
1) How to Implement This New Feature:
- Apply 11i.PRC_PF.F (Procurement Family Pack F) AND one-off
patch 1942091
- Procurement Family Packs G and higher
2) Technical Details:
a) Dodument manager 에 관련된 Error 를 처리하기 위하여 새로운
Purchasing Item Type 인 "POERROR" 이 추가되었다.
POERROR item type 에 대하여 아래의 workflow attribute 가 define 되었
으며 이 값들을 설정하여야 한다.
관련 Attribute 들은 아래와 같으며 Business 환경에 맞게 적절한 값으로
설정한다.
DOC_MGR_WAIT_RELATIVE_TIME Length of time, in minutes, processes
will have to wait before getting picked
again.
Default = 0
RETRY_COUNT Number of attempts to get document
manager for approval.
Default = 0
TIMEOUT_VALUE Length of time, in minutes, for
notification automatically close itself.
Default = 0
SYSADMIN_USER_NAME Application user (typically the System
Administrator) who can receive
notifications for document manager-
related errors in status 1 and 2.
YOU MUST DEFINE THIS MANUALLY TO A VALID
USERNAME.
b) POERROR item type 에 대하여 Workflow Background Processor 가 주기적으
로 수행되어야 한다.
document manager 에 대한 재시도 횟수는 아래의 요소에 의해 결정된다.
- Attribute DOC_MGR_WAIT_RELATIVE_TIME
- WorkFlow Background engine wait period
c) Approval mode 와 관계없이 POERROR 를 처리할 Workflow Background
process 가 수행되어야 하며, wait time 후에 해당 process를 재시도하게
된다. Background engine 이 start 되면 document approve 를 다시 시도하
게된다. User 는 status 1 와 2 errors 에 대해서는 Notification 을 받
지 않으며, status 3 error 는 User 에게 Notification 을 보내게 된다.
(Sysadmin 에게 발송되지 않음.)

How to trigger provisioning - after approval task failed but data corrected

Hi,
We have a situation where the approvals are provided for the requests but approval task failed(denied) due to misconfiguration. But really all the approvals are provided by the required personnel. So, we need to manually correct the data and trigger the provisioning. Could you please advise on how to manually/otherwise trigger the provisioning in this scenario
Thanks,
Sudhakar

Thanks Kevin. We could locate these requests and update the records in DB. But wasn't sure if we can trigger the automatic provisioning from there. I was thinking there may be a way to restart the workflow/provisioning from the point where it failed. That would be a nice feature to have.

PO Approval Delegation

Hi guys
can anyone tell me, if the final approver delegates approval authority to the approver below him,does that approver (approver below) need to have the same limit(monetary) of approval as the final approver

Hi,
Final approver can approve over $20,000
Delegated person can approve with a limit <= $20,000,...
Question : Can this person be able to approve above $20000?????
Ans : Nope.. As his limit is <= $20,000 , any PO within his limit he only can approve even though PO is delegated to him which is higher han $20,000
To confirm the same, test it this way...
Step1:
=====
Assign a job through which the delegated person can approve PO higher than $20,000, now try to approve a PO which is delaged to him whose value is higher than $20,000... He will be able to approve this PO.
Step2:
=====
Assign a job through which the delegated person can approve PO <= $20,000, now try to approve a PO which is delaged to him whose value is higher than $20,000... He will not be able to approve this PO. Now the PO will be pending with his Supervisor for approval.. You can check the same in PO action history
Hope this will help
Regards,
S.P DASH

ICal delegation failing after upgrade from Snow Leopard to Lion

I've just upgraded our Snow Leopard server to run Lion Server.
I have a problem with iCal Server.
Individual calendars work OK: can be accessed from iCal / iThings and so on, and via web interface. But calendar delegation doesn't.
If I open Accounts / Preferences / Delegation from any version of iCal / Calendar I get this error:
In the server calendar server error log I see the following:
[twext.web2.dav.method.report_expand#error] Error reading property (u'http://calendarserver.org/ns/', u'calendar-proxy-read-for') for resource /principals/__uids__/BCDF1D53-4447-40A2-A035-B30F6E2EEDE4/: <StatusResponse 403 Unable to list properties: /Volumes/StorageHD/Library/Server/Calendar and Contacts/Documents>
Anyone got any ideas what is going on and / or how to fix?
Thanks in advance for any help available.

OK - Fixed it.
Turns out the cure is to use the Webcal Interface to re-create the delegations. A bit tedious, but doing this presumably forces a rewrite of the file that previously cannot be accessed. Means you need to set up the delegation again for each account - but this at least is an improvement over not being able to do anything at all.
Once fixed, delegation works just fine.
Hope this helps someone else solve the issue etc.

Requests enter "failed" state without initiating approval

Hi there. Our OIM 11g BP4 installation started having problem with requests. Some of them simply fail, and failing frequency is increasing.
For all failed request the error message is the same:
IAM-2050014:An error occurred while initiating approvals for request oracle.iam.request.exception.ApprovalServiceException: oracle.iam.request.exception.ApprovalPolicyAccessDeniedException: User oiminternal does not have access to SEARCH entity of type APPROVAL_POLICY.. The corresponding error message is {1}.
Two peculiar things are worth noting:
- the better part of those requests share the same template and are set to be auto-approved, via a proper approval policy;
- failed and completed requests are intermixed, i.e. after a failed request there can be a completed request a moment later, or the other way around. That excludes a permission problem like the error message seems to suggest, IMHO.
A real-life example taken right from our installation:
1852 Provision Resource Request Completed
1853 Provision Resource Request Failed
1854 Provision Resource Request Failed
1855 Provision Resource Request Completed
1856 Provision Resource Request Completed
1857 Provision Resource Request Failed
1858 Provision Resource Request Failed
All those request share the same request template and the same approval policy (which, as stated, is set to auto-approve the request).
It looks like SOA approval is not even started, so this behaviour should not be related to SOA.
Any hint of where to look to find the reason for these fails? It is a production environment and this behaviour is starting to become a serious problem.
Thanks,
Rpatri

You mean patch 14036801.
Yes, that was probably the solution: after applying the patch there have not been failed request.
Thanks.

CUP-SP13 Delegation Approver

Hi Experts,
We are running SP13 and I wanted to know if you have tested about the approver delegation in SP13.
I check that in SP12 this approver delegation send only the request for approval to the delegated approver.
After Going to SP13 I tested again and now both the approver and the delegated approver are able to see the request. Have you notice that? does anyone experience the same?
Thanks in advance!
Margarita

Hi Margarita,
As per the functionality of Approver delegation approver as well as the delegated approver both can see the request pending for approval. It is applicable to new as well as old requests depends of the time duration.This as per design of the apporover delegation funcationality.
I do not have SP12 in my landscape, so I can not comment on SP12.
Kind Regards,
Srinivasan

Issue in Purchase Order approval

Hi All,
I am facing an issue in purchase order approval process . Need suggestion from your end.
Purchase order approval gor failed in the work flow stage 'Get PO Attributes'.
I could find that this is because one of the line distribution has quantity ordered as 0 .
And the proc (PO_POAPPROVAL_INIT1.GET_PO_ATTRIBUTES) which is attached to the node 'Get PO Attributes' is ending in error (Divide mby zero error in the proc )
Workflow is failing on the node 'Get PO Attributes' .
Function which is getting called : PO_POAPPROVAL_INIT1.GET_PO_ATTRIBUTES
Since the quantity_ordered in one line Distribution is zero, the function is giving error (while trying to divide by zero).
Query which is failing is
" SELECT SUM( ROUND (POD.nonrecoverable_tax * DECODE(quantity_ordered, NULL, (NVL(POD.amount_ordered,0) - NVL(POD.amount_cancelled,0)) / NVL(POD.amount_ordered, 1), (NVL(POD.quantity_ordered,0) - NVL(POD.quantity_cancelled,0)) / NVL(POD.quantity_ordered, 1) ), X_precision ) )
INTO l_tax_amount
FROM po_distributions_all POD
WHERE po_header_id = POHdr_rec.po_header_id;"
My question is that, how to fix this issue now (any data fix possible? ). As far as I know I will not able to amend the PO now. Kindly give me a work around for this.
Thanks,
Arun

There is a generic datafix script shipped as a patch. This script will help in resetting the document to Incomplete / Requires Reapproval status. There after you can adjust the PO to have correct quantities and re-approve it.
The datafix script is $PO_TOP/sql/poxrespo.sql. Please read the documentation and try out in test instance first.

Approval workflow issue

Hello Friends,
I have created a simple approval workflow with 2 stages for a document library. User A will approve and then the approval has to go to User B
User A is receiving a mail and editing the document and saving it. User A then goes to his mail and approves it.
Now as per the logic, the User B should get an email. But its not happening so.
Is it something that I'm missing? Or should I include all the users in a single stage?
The error that I'm getting on the second stage

Hi Chandra,
According to your description, my understanding is that you got an error when you ran an approval workflow with two stages.
I did a testing as the following workflow, everything worked well:
Please create a new library, and a new workflow as the above, test again, compare the result.
In addition, as the message, the Approval WF failed to run when the user ID was system account. And by default, system account cannot run workflow automatically. So, please use other users to test, compare the result.
Best Regards,
Wendy

MSS Time Approval - multiple (different) selection options for manager?

Hi all
I am setting up MSS Time Approval delegation in ERP2005 without workflow, leave request, nor portal development environment set up.
In this case, the customer needs to have multiple selection options for who to approve:
1. The manager's direct reports (standard functionality)
2. All subordinates, all levels down
3. Delegate's (manager or non-manager) view of a particular (other) manager's direct reports
3b. This might extend to a set of different delegation selections
4. Add or remove certain individuals
Now, getting 3. and 4. to work was simple using the BAdI (I think the enhancement spot is named APPR_CUST), method ...-edit_selection, but I am having difficulties with 2. and 3b. Now I am thinking along these lines, and I would greatly appreciate your input:
A. It seems that the MSS "Approve working time" app only loads the data selection at the entry into this screen (INIT command from portal), using the start perspective determined for example by the IMG for defining the approval profile <-> view. My debugging suggests that the view change from the drop down menu (CHANGE_PERSPECTIVE command) only picks a different way to present the same data set.
Could anybody please confirm or contradict this conclusion?
B. Is it possible to present the entire "Approve working time" section in MSS in multiple different copies so that they would all generate an INIT command? Or is it possible to copy and modify the entire MSS tab, resulting in an ESS tab, one MSS, one "D"SS, one "A"SS (well, not suggesting that the top manager is one, but you get the drift...) and so on?
If either of this were possible, it would be simple to make two modifications, one at the beginning of the FM called by the portal and one at the FM that returns the start perspective.
So far I have been trying to catch and alter the CHANGE_PERSPECTIVE command into an INIT in the back end, but the Time Approval functionality is a bit too complex for me to feel entirely comfortable with this approach.
Your input is much appreciated!
Kind regards
Niclas Arndt

We too are using MSS for time approval of time entered via ESS. We are on ECC 6.0 for the backend (no enhancement packs, at least not yet), currently sp stack 10 with hrsp 24, and EP 7.0 with stack 10 for the ESS/MSS business packages. We are using the standard MSS UWL functionality for the approval, so it is workflow-based in my understanding.
In other parts of MSS, the managers can see a few levels deep in the organization structure, based upon the definition we gave for their structural profiles. For instance, in the team calendar/overview, or other team information, they have a choice for multiple levels or only direct reports. However, in the time approval application, only direct reports are shown, so if a manager goes on vacation, at present the only way to cover time approvals for that manager's employees appears to be to temporarily assign a new 'chief' to that org unit, so HR involvement becomes necessary. The manager doesn't have any method for delegating the approval or other MSS authorities. We were hoping that by allowing multiple levels in the structural profile, such approvals would "roll up" to the next level, i.e. the manager's supervisor, so the next level manager could act as a backup to his/her managers on vacation. That doesn't work, however.
We have heard that a delegation feature for MSS will be available in an upcoming release, but I haven't found any information regarding whether that requires an upgrade, an enhancement pack, a later service pack level, or what or when that functionality will be available. Does anyone know anything about that?
Regards,
Matt
