BOR for PS budget approval workflow

Hi gurus,
               I have a Project Systems scenario in which For all the changes done in CJ40, one reminder has to generate for Budget approvals to the concern in T-Code: CJ30.
Has anyone done this workflow before. Is there any standard Workflow or business object for this.
Please share your idea on how to proced with this workflow scenario.
Regards,
Hari

Hello Hari !
              I suppose bus2001 will be suitable to your requirement.
              If it doesn't suits, you can find the business object by adopting following steps :
              1.Switch on the event trace inb SWELS transaction.
              2.Go to CJ40 and do the changes and save.
              3.Go to SWEL and see what business object have generated for the time stamp at when CJ40 is saved.
              That's the business object required for your scenario.If no business object is seen , set the status(system or user as required) and do the above 3 steps again.
             Still, no event is fired in SWEL, find the appropriate BAdI or user-exit  and you can get the job done.
              There is no standard workflow that suits to your requirement.You have to go only for custom developments.

  • Fix authorizations for the budget approval flow (internal orders)

    Hi,
    I need to fix the authorizations for the budget approval flow.
    What do I need to take into account?
    Thank you.
    Kind regards,
    Linda

    (1) Each appropriation request should be attached to an investment program (leaf) position. To update the approved budget on the investment program from time to time, you should
        -  make a plan rollup from the appropriation requests to the program positions via IM34 (use an appropriate status selection profile on the initial screen of IM34 and select appropriation requests only to make sure that
           >  only appropriation requests
           >  with status 'Approved' are taken into account),
        -  To budget the investment program via IM32, set view 'Planned total' (Menu: 'Views -> Planned total') and copy this view, which contains the latest approved budget amounts, to the "real" budget (Menu: 'Edit -> Select -> Select all' and then 'Edit -> Copy view').
    (2) You can even generate an order from the appropriation request that enherits the appropriation requests plan value. For details see SAP Library (Menu: 'Help -> SAP Library'), path 'Financials -> IM Investment Management -> Appropriation Requests -> Replacement by a measure for implementation'.  Analogously to step (1), you can also take over the orders 'Planned total' view into the orders budget via txn IM52.
    If you strictly limit the authorisations to execute IM34, IM32 and IM52 as pointed out in steps (1) and (2) to a handful of people who execute these functions as pointed out above (withoud adding or removing budget arbitrarily, of course), the budgeting process
    really focusses on planning/approving appropriation requests which is fully accompanied by the approval workflow.
    Hope above helps you.

  • FMBB Budget Approval workflow is not triggered

    Hi Experts,
    I want to activate the standard workflow for Budget Approval in FMBB t-code. I found two standard workflow templates for this WS12300025 and WS12300026 and I activated it. In both workflow templates start event is maintained as 'BUS0050'  'PREPOSTEDDOCCREATED' .
    But when I am creating Budget document in FMBB t-code, 'BUS0050' 'POSTEDDOCCREATED' is triggering , so the standard workflow is not triggering.
    Then checked in forums, that we should maintain SPRO settings. I maintained the setting in SPRO.(Attachment 1).
    After maintained this setting I am facing an error while creating Budget in FMBB t-code. (Attachment 2).
    Kindly help me on this is urgent .
    Thanks & Regards
    Ayyappan.V

    Ibrahim, The complete statement is:
    If event linkage not activated it (Workflow Instance) will not get traced i.e. in T-Code SWI2_FREQ, thats the reason I have suggested to check error message in SWEL .
    SWEL will always create entry whether linkage is activated or not, the only thing is trace should be on in T-Code SWELS.  Hope things are clear now.

  • Budget Approval Workflow

    Hi,
    We have requirement for budget approval request for portfolio item. I guess we dont have any standard workflow for budget approval. Please suggest if anyone has worked on similar requirement. Also I want to know if SAP recommends any non workflow based solution for such requirement.
    Regards
    Shrikant

    Hi Shrikant,
    In this scenario, you can only enter the values manually after offline approval or you need to develop a z-webdynpro component and attach those details to financial information of portfolio items.
    In case of SAP PS/internal order, the budget planning & approval has a control over business transactions like PR/PO commitments since the planning is done over cost collectors. In portfolio management, no cost collectors, so no budget planning provided. And the information in items are there to enable decision making.

  • How to set the conditions for item deletion approval workflow?

    Hi,
    I have created approval workflow for item modifications ie, when user try to modify an item, it will send a mail to Project Manager. For that I set the conditions in Change the behavior of the overall task: 1. When the task process starts 2 . When the task
     process completes .
    Change the behavior of the single task: 1.when a task is Pending.
    [I followed this https://www.nothingbutsharepoint.com/sites/eusp/Pages/5-Steps-to-Enhance-SharePoint-2010-Approval-Workflow.aspx ]
    My Requirement is that I want to set this same workflow for the scenario: when the user deletes an item it will send a mail (intimation mail for item deletion) to Project Manager. here i dont want to send modification mails when user deletes an item.
    When user modifies an item: 1. intimation mail, 2. Approve/Reject mail 3. intimation for approval / rejection mail.
    When user deletes an item: 1. intimation mail.
    How can we set it in one approval workflow?? where i have to set the condition for sending either item modification mails or deletion mail.
    Thanks,
    Praveen ji

    Hi,
    According to your post, my understanding is that you wanted to start approval workflow when item deleted.
    You should first make some changes to trigger the workflow when you delete the item.
    You can use the Event Receiver to achieve it.
    In order to trigger workflow on item delete you need to create event receivers and from event receiver call the workflow already attached with list.
    http://ravendra.wordpress.com/sharepoint-workflow-on-list-item-delete/
    You can also create custom action to start the workflow, you can refer to the following article, then modify the workflow as your need.

  • Imaging Payables Invoices upon Receipt for attachment to approval workflow

    Looking for a solution to image Payable Invoices on receipt. This Invoice image has to flow through the approval workflow as an attachment with the ability to open / print.
    Would appreciate any help you may be able to provide or insight from any experience you might have with similar requirement (Best practices, Issues/challenges, etc). Thanks.

    1) PO approval and invoice approval is independent of each other. You have to have PO approvals. Invoice approvals are optional.
    2) Check ap_wfapproval_history_v and ap_inv_aprvl_hist_all
    Hope this answers your question,

  • Steps required for second level approval Workflow

    I think you have to activate the below workflows in the system which automatically  identifies the number of levels that it should cross.
    WS14000133
    WS10000049
    WS14000134 ---> This Sub workflow determines,  is there any next approver or not?.

  • From_User not populated for AP Invoice Approval Workflow

    Hello,
    We are using the AP Invoice Approval and Requisition Approval workflows. When a supervisor grants their worklist authority to a requestor of a requisition the requestor is not allowed to approve their Req. This appears to be the correct action.
    However when the same circumstances arise with AP Invoice Approvals the requestor of the invoice is allowed to approve their own invoice through the worklist delagation of their manager (these requestors do not have workflow admin privs.). We have noticed that the "From_user" is null on the wf_notifications table for APINV message types but not for REQAPPR message types.
    Does anyone have insight into this difference in functionality?
    Thanks,

  • Program Exit for Travel Expense approval workflow

    Dear Experts,
    When a travel expense request is raised from the portal, the requester can attach certain documents like Files, notes to the same  for the approver to see.
    But when the approver sees the request in his UWL, he is not able to see the documents that the requester attached while creating the request.
    I used a Program Exit for the same to happen, which creates a custom Event of a Custom BO, which in turn is attached to a standard task, that calls a method of an ABAP Class, that in turn attaches the document for that particular Employee and trip number.
    But I am not able to View the document in the UWL.
    Am I missing anything?
    Please help..
    Note: I reffered the following document (which was very helpful):
    http://scn.sap.com/docs/DOC-29492

    Try changing the behavior of the uwl when calling a SAP GUI from the default ITS to WIN GUI since you can't display documents on ITS:
    Content Administration->Portal Content->Portal Users->Standard Portal Users->Universal Worklist->UWL - Launch SAP Transaction
    Under Property Category choose Content - Transaction. Set the property SAP GUI Type to SAP GUI for Windows.

  • Deadline Monitoring for N-Level Approval Workflow WS14000033

  • Budget Approval Workflow Error: FMBCS_WF_ROLE_BUDGET parameter: FMBCS

    Hi All,
    I am implementing BCS Standard workflow templates WS12300025/6 on ECC 6.0.  When I test the workflow, i get the following error:
    "Function module call up error: FMBCS_WF_ROLE_BUDGET parameter: FMBCS"
    What could be the cause of this?
    Please assist. 
    Thank you.
    Robeth

    Sudhir,
    I have tried simulating the rule alone but I get the error message "Test not Executed".
    I must admit I am new with Objects.   Which Object ID is not properly imported?  When I define binding automatically, the following workflow and rule objects are generated,
    Workflow          Rule
    &ACTIVITY&    &ACTIVITY&
    &BUS0050&    &BUS0050&
    &LEVEL&        &LEVEL&
    I have also tested the workflow without the rule using Tcode SWDD directly,  the task is started ok but work item in the agent's inbox has decision box showing only one alternative (Cancel and keep work item in inbox) instead of two.  In addition it does not show the attached pre-posted document.
    When I run Tcode FMBB directly to trigger the workflow, the workflow is not triggered even though type linkage for event PREPOSTEDDOCCREATED has been activated.
    I am puzzled by this.  Please give me step and step and if possible give me the objects.
    Thank yuo.

  • Change in Work item Text for Approval Workflow WS14000133

    Hi,
    I need to change the work item text for Shopping Cart Approval Workflow WS14000133.
    I have created an Attribute in Business Object BUS2121 and called the same attribute in work item text.
    In PFTC -> Redefine Work item text - > and i have defined the work item text as well called the attribute from the container.
    what  the problem over here is - when I am passing the attribute in the work item text in the task, I am unable to see the work item text with the Dynamic Attribute but I am able to see the work item alone (not with the Dynamic attribut)
    But when i debug the workflow from SWI1 then i can see the dynamic attribute in the Container of the workflow but nt in the approver's inbox in portal..
    Can you please tell me - that why is this a strange behaviour that i can see the Dynamic attributed created initially in the workflow container of the Business Object but nt in the Approvers inbox either in Backend nor in the front end...
    Thanks,

  • Problems with Auto approval workflow (WS 10000060) for shopping carts

    Hi SAP Network community,
    I have got a problem with the auto approval workflow for shopping carts.
    Basically the workflow approves the shopping cart once it was created.
    But then the related Purchase Order remains in Status held. If the PO gets ordered manually then it is not transferred to the R/3 backend system.
    For testing purposes also the one step approval workflow was activated. If the shopping cart gets approved by clicking into the detail approval screen (not by approving through the green tick box in the shopping cart overview) then the PO gets ordered and transferred to the backend system as normal.
    But if the shopping cart gets approved by using the green tick box in the shopping cart overview then the same problem occurs as described for the auto approval workflow.
    The system version is SRM 4.00
    Did anybody have the same or similar problems with the auto approval workflow and what could be the reason for this problems.
    Thanks in advance,
    Robert

  • Standard n-step approval workflow for Purchase Order in sap 4.7?

    Hello friend,
                 In SAP 4.7 there is any standard template for  n-step approval workflow for Purchase Order.
    thanks in advance.

    Hi AM,
    there is no std template for n-step approvals but for Single Release.
    What you could do is create a custom one as per the number of approvals for PO.
    Also note a PO Release Strategy can handle only 8 levels of approval.
    Hope it helps.
