Customizing Workflow approval process

Hi,
I have a requirement to customize the 'Change Pay' workflow process in item_type 'HRSSA' to route it through custom approvers derived through PL/SQL code. Please let me know as to where to start from and where do I place my custom function whcih derives the approvers in the workflow process.
If I remove the process name from the AME condition, it doesn't go for any approval as I can see in the Status diagram. The 'IsFinalApprover' node in 'Notification Process for Approvers and Notifiers' returns Y and the process ends.
Thanks,
R

Thanks for the reply.
But the requirement is quite complex to be achieved through AME. For ex: the approval notification should timeout conditionally based on the recipient of the notification which cannot be achieved through AME.

How to use a pwa group in CREATE A TASK PROCESS in SPD 2013 for project server workflow approval process

I am working on a Project Server 2013 workflow. I am creating this using Sharepoint Designer 2013. In this workflow I am using approval process at one stage. I have created a security group SalesManagers in PWA. I want to use this group for workflow approval
process. I want all users of this group get approval tasks.
For this I used START A TASK PROCESS activity in the SP Designer. I clicked on
this user and created task process. But here I could not find SalesManager group which I created in PWA. I was only able to find the users. I can also see
Administrators for PWA . But couldnot find SalesManager or any other security group created in pwa.
Can anyone suggest how I can get the security group created in pwa.

NBDevelopment,
I believe SPD only recognizes the SharePoint Groups and not the project server security groups.
The Administrators for PWA, and few other groups like Project Managers for PWA etc., are synced SharePoint Groups with the security groups, which is why they show up in SPD.
You could create a SharePoint Group for the Sales Managers group and use that in SPD.

EREC: Standard workflow approval process

Hello,
Can someone help me out with the workflow name, for the approval process, if recruiter is creating the requisition?, will the workflow be trigerred after saving the requisition or the releasing the requisition?
Thanks Much.

Chech the WS51800008 in SWDD this workflow trigger in APPROVALREQUESTED event of ERC_REQUI business object, also check WS16900009 This workflow template is used when processing requisition requests within the MSS E-Recruiting integrated solution. In the standard
delivery, it is associated with the Simple Requisition Request (SRQ1) scenario. This workflow is started when a user (usually the manager) submits the requisition request.
Also Check Business object ERC_OBJECT in tcode SWO1and use where used list.

Limiting workflow approval process

Hello,
There's a workflow process for the talent management module HR_APPRAISAL_DETAILS_JSP_PRC. The approval process is going up many levels to the top person in the organization (using the supervisor hierarchy), but I want to limit this to only one step above the appraisees supervisor.
Say I am being appraised, my supervisor will do the appraiser and his own supervisor will approve.
Is there anyway to limit approval levels. I've looked at Approvals Management but not really sure what to make of it to be honest.
Thanks a lot.

I've done a few things just to update.
I create a new condition, the condition type is "Ordinary", the item class is "Header" and the condition is WORKFLOW_PROCESS_NAME in (HR_APPRAISAL_DETAILS_JSP_PRC)
Also, created a new rule:
The rule type is list creation, the item class is Header and the category is Approver.
This rule includes the condition I created above.
Also, the action I have defined for this rule is:
Require approvals up to the first superior, at most.
Should this solve my problem?
Also of note is that the workflow process for HR_APPRAISAL_DETAILS_JSP_PRC contains sub processes, does that fact have any effect?
Thanks again.

Custom Workflow Approval Table

What are some of critical fields that I would need if I were designing my workflow approvals to be based on a custom table? I have a fairly limited understanding of the major data components that are being used for workflow so any input from the experts would be appreciated.

How can we send workitem for approval and rejection to outlook using webservicie?
Please propose a solution or tell me where can I find document regarding this scebario.
Thanks.

Hi Pawan
I have a question regarding this thread.
In case we are using the webservice BWSP to send every user a hyperlink and I have passed the hyperlink in the mail step in workflow , so that on clicking on it they will be able to view their business workplace.
1.Where should we do the setting for the logon credentials that is on clicking the link every user is asked for their user id's and password and then the business workplace opens up.
2. Will he be able to execute the workitems or any other setting is also require.
Also,I was going through your post on using web service to send a link to outlook where in you mentioned a piece of code to generate the hyperlink dynamically since details of host and port may change.
Now how should the above setting for user credentials be maintained in that code.
Your comments would be valuable on this.
Thanks and Regards
Aman

Launch Custom Workflow thru Business Event

Hi ,
My requirement is to launch a Workflow Approval process after creating a Transaction Record in Oracle Apps.
(1) Is it a good practice to invoke the custom workflow (from PLSQL) from a database trigger on the TRX table?
(2) Instead, can I define an event or use a pre-defined business event to invoke my customer WF?
(3) If so, is it sufficient while defining "Event Subscription", just set action type "Launch Workflow" and set workflow details? or do I still need to define an Receive Event Activity in my customer WF?
Thx, Suresh

Hi,
1 - It's probably neither here nor there, to be honest. If it can be avoided, then I would always avoid launching a process from a trigger. However, you may have no other choice than to fire the workflow from a trigger - bear in mind that you will need to defer the process to the background and run a background engine later to start the process off, as the first node will issue a savepoint which is not allowed in a trigger.
2 - Yes. If you are defining a custom event, you will still need to raise the event in some manner, though. If you can hook into a seeded event, then that's the best way to do it.
3 - The workflow process needs to have a receive event node to receive the event. If you are starting the process, then this needs to be set as a Start node. You will then have to ensure that the event gets raised.
HTH,
Matt

Approval process for changes in BAsic infotype

Dear Gurus,
The customer wants approval process whenever hr changes BASIC infotype, a mail shpuld go to his superior, who will approve the request in the system.
- We are not implementing Workflow, ESS.
- Enqueue / Dequeue concept does not work with Time constraint 1.
- We are not in favour of changing time constraint of BASIC infotype
How can we handle this situation thru GUI client ?
Regards,
Vijay Badgeri

Hi Kapil/Sikandar,
Thank you for the reply.
As per my understanding, the steps involved would be:
1. The dynamic action will be triggered during "Change in Pay" action.
2. HR executive will make necessary changes in IT0001, IT0008, IT0014.
3. Dynamic action is triggered when IT0008 is updated.
4 Current values & new values of IT0008 & IT0014 are moved to workflow container and create workflow request to the HR Manager.
5. On approval of workflow request by HR Manager, the IT0008, IT0014 get updated.
my doubts are :
1. What would be the status of action till manager approves?
2. Will HR Admin be able to see the entries made by him ?
(In Finance we have PARK option, is there any such option in HR?)
3. Would the dynamic action triggered if bulk "Change in Pay" actions are generated thru BDC/LSMW ?
Pl let me know...
Warm Regards,
Vijay Badgeri
