Change / replace Approver?

Hi
I am wanting shopping carts to be approved by the creators manager, which is O.K. However, I also want the creator of the shopping cart to be able to select an alternative approver if required. At the moment with what I have configured, I can add an approver, but I cannot delete the original resolver from the list of approvers. When I go to add an approver, the dropdowns under 'More Search Helps' contain - 'Check if change/replace of Approver is allowed'. Please could someone tell me if this is how you achieve being able to select an alternative approver and remove the original, and how you set this up. If this is not how you do it does anyone have any suggestions ?
Thanks
Claire

Hi Masa
We are moving from SRM 3.0, but are doing a completely new implementation rather than a double upgrade.
We are implementing SRM version 7.0, and intend to use process controlled workflow rather than application controlled.
Is there nothing available within process controlled workflow which would allow the change/replace of the default approver?
Just wondering if you have any thoughts on another of my questions -
[Shopping Cart approval by manager with correct approval level;
Many Thanks
Claire

Same problem here. Batteries last about 10 days. Checked each with a digital multimeter. One battery was drained, the other was perfect.
I replaced the dead battery and marked the other one I left in. One week later, the new battery was dead. The marked battery was fine. The mouse is defective, it is only using the power on one side. Time for a return to the Apple Store. I hope it will be a quick swap.

How to change default approval for ResourceAuthorizerApproval ?

Hi,
I'am new in OIM and I follow documentation where I found some predefined workflows. I'd like to use them.
Could you tell me, step by step, how to change default approval for ResourceAuthorizerApproval (only for my new defined resource).
I'm using OIM 11g and Design Console 11.1.1.3.0.2.0

Ok, I made new tamplate (copy of existing one), there I changed Template Level Approval Process and set allowed resources. It seems to be ok :)
If there are other solutions please share with me
Thanks

To change the approval limit for Extended attribute PO Value limits

Hi,
We are on SRM 4.0, in PPOMA_BBP for a local purchasing organisation we want to change the approval limit let us say from 100 to 50 but the system is presenting this field as non editable( In stabdard values sub screen)
In Extended attribute tab in organisation structure after selecting the PO Value limits in SRM 4.0 we see two sub screens
a) Standard values
b) Local values
We want to change the approval limit in standard values sub screen from 1000 to 500, which system is presenting as noneditable.

CATS Hours change by Approver In Detailed Approval View

Hi,
1.Is it possible to change the Hours in detailed Approval view?
In CATS Approval WD, When Approver clicks on hours It will takes to Deatailed approval view, There is it possible to change the hours By Approver?. I need an option to change the hours entered by employee while approving.
Suppose Employee entered 10 hours for particular day and Released, When Approving Approver wants to change it to 9 hours and Approve. Is this possible in CATS approval via Portal?
2. How can I Change (Reject/Approve) the old records of workitem executed already in the past?
Approver might approved/Rejected some hours in the last month, Now he came to know that its wrong,
How can he reset that hours to Reject/Approve in the portal?
Can Anyone help in this?
Regards
Ram

Hi Ramesh,
Probably transaction CATS_APPR_LITE will help. Using this report you can reset the approval. But you can do it from backend.

How to change the Approver in ESS development

Hi All,
I need to change the Approver in the ESS. Right now its taking the team lead in the organizational hierarchy but now it has to be changed to Project Manager which will be fetched from customal table. I was told to use BADI PT_GEN_REQ. How should I utilize this BADI to change the approver? or is there any other option. Could anyone help me regarding this.
Thanks & Regards
Ajo John

I assume this is occuring because you have your standard approval not set to auto complete. On your Standard Approval process definition, on the approve task, add the tcCompleteTask.
If that is not the issue then you need to modify your Self Registration to have an approve task assigned to the appropriate user you would like.

Replacing approver

Hello people,
I'm facing a problem when the final user A is creating a shoping car, and changes the approver. This user A has the role to create the shooping car only. But he can change the approver pointing to a user B, that has no role of approver.
How can I restrict this, to show only the managers? Is it possible?
I'm using EBP 300.
Thanks!!!

Hello Cristiana,
You can do agent assignment restricted to users with the role 'SAP_BBP_STAL_MANAGER' to your WS10000276 by using Transaction OOCU.
Here, follow this path: SAP --> SRM --> SRM-EBP --> SRM-EBP-WFL
Click on link "Assign Agents" --> Select WS10000276
In Standard setting - WS10000276 would be seen as 'General Task' - You need to first change to "No General task" - By Clicking on "Attributes (F8)". And then you can assing above role by clicking "Create Agent Assignment (F5)".
Let me know in case you face any issue.
Regards,
Shiv

How to change SC Approver?

I am using an existing SRM 7.0 system and when I create a new shopping cart based on the amount ordered the SC is either auto approved or the approval goes to the manager.
Any help in checking where the approver is defined? I would like to change the approver and also test with different approver id.
Thanks in advance.

Some troubleshooting ideas:
0. Check if the DCs can resolve each other using their DNSHostName. If not, this indicates some DNS misconfiguration
-- you need to fix that first.
1. Check if the both the DCs are pointing to the same DNS server (or DNS servers that are replica of each
other). Run: "ipconfig /all" and check its output. If not, correct the DNS client settings and run dcdiag after sometime.
2. Check if dynamic updates are "turned on" on the DNS server.
3. Try re-registering the DCs SRV records by either restarting netlogon service or by running the following
command:
     nltest.exe /dsregdns

Change default approver name in ESS leave request

Hi,
Please help me..
I am creating leave request Workflow.
When i go to ESS and try to create Leave Request, ESS already defaults the Approver, and its in display mode only.
I see the F4 help in Approver field and when i try to select from F4 help, it does not take new value. It's still the same value as it was default to initially.
How can i use F4 help and change the default approver name?
Can anyone please help me...I dont know where the things are missing.
Thanks in Advance
Shipra

Thank you all for your reply..
When i changed the configuration, now its allowing me to change the approver while submitting the leave request.
But now it also allows me to enter my user id itself to approve the request
Is there a way that system allows you to enter only your immediate supervisor or supervisor of the supervisor and so on?
Please help thanks.

CATS - Status after changing the approves times

Hi gurus,
Scenario -
1) Employee enters time through ESS with profile lets say ZESS
2) MAnager apporves the times
3) HR administrator can change the apporved times, if they want to lets say with another profile ZADM
What happens:
1) What would be the the statf us of the records changed by Time administrator after approval by Manager. Would it be in process or approved.
CAC2 - I did not find any settings under the cats profile definition where we can determine this behaviour
Requirement
we want the status to go to In process so that manager approves ti again
Any ideas if ther eis any setting to do this.
regards
Raj

Hi,
The status of the records changed after approval becomes 50 "changed after approval". you can view the records and its status in table CATSDB. Goto SE16 and give CATSDB.
For those records which have been changed, system will automatically create new records in CATSDB table with status 20 "released for approval".
Now, these records will be picked up for approval by the manager.
The connection between the old and the new records is the reference counter field in CATSDB. Check the fields "counter" and "reference counter" for the connection.
I hope this helps.
Thanks
Manoj Krishna
