Editing After Approval ..

Hi ..
Is there any possibility to edit the document after the approval procedure ended .
for ex : If user created the PO which goes for the approval . And the approval provider wants to edit the quantity .Can it be possible ?
Or Is there any possibility to change the rows field after approval by the user ..
thanks
Ashish

Hi Ashish,
In SAP B1 once the document goes through approval procedure it can't be edited.The authorizer can either approve or reject the document.
Once it is rejected originator has to create new document as this document is also not editable in 2005B.
Hope this helps

Sales order not editable after approval procedure

Dear SAP,
for a customer we need to find out a way to edit sales orders after approval. Example: User fills a sales order with more than 100 positions and had a typing error which is realized later.
Next example: Customer wants the delivery conditions to be changed. We know that changing a document after approval might sound strange - but the customer's processes are like that.
Thanks a lot in advance, sincerely
Guido

It is not strange that every now and then, users have requests to change a document after approval. However, the discipline is absolutely necessary here. There is no room for you to change. Otherwise, the approval procedure may not be that useful. If there is typo, you have to recreate the document. Next time the problem would be less. If unfortunately customer wants the delivery conditions to be changed, then you have to recreate the document too.
Thanks,
Gordon

SC can be edited after Approval.....

Hello Gurus,
This is the Major Issue i have never faced.just have a look.
I have my user created the shopping cart,the SC went for Approval,
sc approved and a follow on document was created in the Backend-R/3
as Purchase Requisition.
Now the unsual thing is that,the User is able to Edit/Delete the SC.
We could see the cart in the backend only and It seems that the system allowed the requisitioner to update/delete this shopping cart even after the approval process was completed in SRM and a R/3 requisition was already created. Please verify.
when the user deleted the item in the SC it was also updated in the PR in the backend as item deleted.
i think shouldnt happen.
can any 1 help me in this
is there anything missing from my side.
any configuration to be done not to allow user to edit/delete the SC.
Thanks
Arshad.

Trade Promotion - edit after manager approval

Hi,
We are currently upgrading from Version 4.0 to CRM 2007. As part of the upgrade, the business is requesting the ability to leave certain fields in the BI planning table unlocked for editing after the promotion has been approved. They want to avoid having to go through the re-approval process. Does anyone know how we can allow this?
I took a look at Critical Changes, but I could not find a lot of information, and it seems to only report on changes that then need re-approval.
Thanks,
Simon.

Hello
I think that the BI planning grid will be editable after change to system status release. I think that there must be code in the system to make it read only based on status.
I would suggest looking for that code. In a standard system, the BI planning grid is editable when the promotion is editable.

After approval AR is not released

Hi Friends,
We have developed a workflow for approval of AR's.
I am creating appropriation request thro' IMA11 , and then I am sending it for approval now status FAPP for approval in progress now it came in my workflow inbox now I am approving the AR, after approval the status of AR should be released but it is not happening.
What may be the reason?
How can I check the workflow log errors of AR's, can I see it thro' IMA11or SWBP.
Any pointers
Thanks
Ashu
Edited by: ashutosh p on Dec 7, 2009 8:49 AM

Hi Sreenivas ,
Thanks for your reply.
I want to know the reason why AR is not getting released after approval in workflow.
Actually in IMA11 screen after creating AR's we are hitting the control data tab and after clicking on status the AR comes in my workflow inbox for futher action for approval.
And status of AR should be chqanged once we approved in the workflow.
How can I check the workflow log error of a particluar AR?
Thanks
Ashu

SP2013 Content Approval Process, restrict status change on updates after Approval

Hi ,
I had implemented the SharePoint content approval process for one internal requirement. Now, there is a need for modifying the content after Approval Status and by doing so SharePoint modifies the status as 'Pending' after edit. But, I have to retain the
approval status.
Please share any thoughts on how to achieve this ?
Thanks in advance.
soundar

Hi Soundar_SP,
After you edit the list item, then the approve status will change to pnending. This is by design.
There is no OOTB feature to achieve your requirement.
As a workaround, you can create a custom Approve workflow with start Approval Progress action and set the workflow started when item created.

Mulitple lined S/C gone into error after approval

Hello I hope someone can help (sorry Im not technical I am still learning lol)
We have recently patched our system for the first time since go live and I have come across a problem that I cannot seem to find a solution too.
We have SRM 5 5.5 version and are up to patch note 16 and I am looking for a fix for the following error.
When a shopping cart is raised over multiple lines but different Vendors are used, after approval it splits into several PO's as normal. However, since the patching we have found that after approval some of the PO's 'Order Status' states it is still awaiting approval even though it has been approved as one shopping cart but the other PO's are fine. Below is an example that was raised on the same Shopping cart and have all been approved at the same time but some are showing as approved and some are not onl;y on the status and you cannot confirm etc -
Number              Name Purch.              Purch. Group                  Total Val.                       Status
3500006321      Split PO test 2 MG       P12 Shared                     15.00   GBP                   Awaiting Approval
3500006318      Split PO test 2 MG       P12 Shared                     150.00   GBP                 Awaiting Approval
3500006317      Split PO test 2 MG       P12 Shared                     20.00   GBP                   Awaiting Approval
3500006316      Split PO test 2 MG       P12 Shared                     30.00   GBP                   Awaiting Approval
3500006319      Split PO test 2 MG       P12 Shared                     750.00   GBP                 Ordered
3500006320      Split PO test 2 MG       P12 Shared                     2.50   GBP                     Ordered
Does anyone know of any notes to fix this as I have searched and have had no joy.
Look forward to your advice and thank you in advance.
Kind regards
Michelle

I also happened to catch the stack below in the debugger. I've seen it a few different times and it may be related. Looks like it's the op.textScrap that's null in my case. Not clear on what leads to it. It actually looks like it may be a bug in RichEditableText in the Flex SDK instead of something in TLF.

Update Sales Order after approval procedure

Hi,
Anybody knows is there any way that we can enable updating of non-numeric field e.g. "item details" in the Sales Order's row after it's posted? Note that there is approval procedure involved, and Sales order posted with a status (approved).
I realized that only UDF at the document level can be updated. How to enable editing of UDF at the row level?
Thanks!
sianghing

No. Other than Sales Employee field, there is no option to update row level data after approval.
Thanks
Gordon

PO not created after approval.

Hi
We are working on SRM4.0 classic scenario with SAP R/3 4.7.
We are having following scenarios to create backend docs.
1. All SC created from catalog should create PO in backend R/3.
2. All SC created using Free text description (All non catalog items) should generate PR in backend.
All PRs are getting generated perfectly as per point 2.
But the problem is with point 1 where PO is not getting generated in backend after approval is done.
As per my analysis, system is picking the PO number and object type perfectly. But all these records exists in BBP_DOCUMENT_TAB. Even after running CLEAN_REQREQ_UP also they are not going to backend.
In BBP_PD it shows I111 Item in transfer process with no check in inactive column.
No errors in SC monitor(RZ20).
I dont know where am I missing. Checked all possible things.
Did anyone faced such situation please throw some light on this.
Thanks in advance

Patches not visible in SCCM 2007 Site server even after approving the patches in WSUS

I have approved the above patches in WSUS and ran syncronization. The log wsyncmgr.log show that synchronization is done and even all child sites are syncronized. But I am unable to find the above even in the parent site. Checked all the SUP settings and
all the 2008 server updates are set and marked to download.
Please help me out on fixing this.

So you should NEVER approve anything in WSUS. This will cause problems with your clients. Honestly since you approved things in WSUS, I would uninstall WSUS and reinstall it, reinstall the SUP, this will clear up any issues that now exist.

Workflow in Project server 2013 online not going particular stage after Approval

Hi All,
i have created workflow using sharepoint designer 2013 for project server 2013 online. and i have also set the approver after the first stage. when i create a project using this workflow, project is created successfully and the approval task also go for
a approval to specific user. and i have set the property that after approval it has to go on specific stage. but the problem is when user approve the task it shows approved but my stage in workflow is remain same. it is not going to any stage.
i don't know why this type of problem is occur.
FYI, i have created same workflow for Project server 2013 on premise(Which is installed in my server) and
it is working fine but when i want to deploy this workflow in
project server 2013 online its giving error.
so please help me to solve this type of issue.
Thanks

I am also experiencing issues with this. After the approval task is completed, the Workflow gets cancelled with the following message
RequestorId: 60d96368-4cb4-b059-8086-604972a92e60. Details: System.Collections.Generic.KeyNotFoundException: The given key was not present in the dictionary. at Microsoft.Activities.Hosting.Runtime.Subroutine.SubroutineChild.Execute(CodeActivityContext context)
at System.Activities.CodeActivity.InternalExecute(ActivityInstance instance, ActivityExecutor executor, BookmarkManager bookmarkManager) at System.Activities.Runtime.ActivityExecutor.ExecuteActivityWorkItem.ExecuteBody(ActivityExecutor executor, BookmarkManager
bookmarkManager, Location resultLocation)
All other desired workflow actions work as expected. Emails are sent, project is moved from stage to stage, however as soon as the workflow approval task is completed, either Approved or Rejected, the Internal Status is changed to Canceled and the
workflow fails.
What is interesting is when the Approval task is completed, the approver will receive an email notification that the task was CANCELLED or DELETED....
not COMPLETED, which is what would be expected.
Has anyone seen this - any potential resolution?

Request stays in Authorizing state even after approval

I've been trying to debug this for days now and it completely breaks my lab - until it fixes itself after some random time and then breaks again
I created a simple approval workflow which seeks approval from [//Target/Owner] when joining an Owner Approval Group. The request makes it to the Group Owner, but when the group owner approves the request, it stays stuck in Authorizing state and the user
doesn't become a member of the group. The WF also remains in Running status even after the request is approved.
I've seen some similar problems around on the internet, and all seem to suggest Exchange related issues. I don't have an exchange setup in my lab, but I don't think not being able to send an email would completely break the approval process. Besides, it
does seem to spring back to life randomly and it all starts working again before breaking - very intermittent.
I've been messing around with the PS WF activity (which I use to calculate custom approvers), but I have disabled that WF completely for now and I'm just using OOTB activities and approvers.
Any suggestions on what the issue could be (apart from exchange)? There are no errors in the event logs either, but there are loads of exchange related errors/warnings which are expected. Alternatively, is there somehow I can disable the "feature"
where FIM tries to send an email?
Thanks

Yep, the approval responses are generated but the request still stays in Authorizing with the workflow in Running state.
What makes this even more bizzare is the intermittent nature of the issue, it just seems to resolve itself after some time then break again.
One thing I have noticed is that the problem starts when I use my custom WF to add approvers to the WF dictionary - the first activity is a powershell activity which calculates the approvers and the next one is the OOTB approval activity which sends an email
to [//WorkflowData/Approver]. However, the PS script runs just fine, and the approver gets the request but after approval nothing happens (although approval responses are generated)

Approver regrouping in Shopping cart after approval and refresh button is clicked

Dear Experts
I created a shopping cart (Say 5 levels of approval) it reaches the approver . The approver approves the shopping cart and the cart is in completion step. When after approval in 3 rd step. If i click on refersh button at the top, the list of approvers who approved the cart are getting grouped in to a folder like structure. How it can be avioded i.e we need the approvers to be shown in sequence even after n approvals and clicking on the refresh button.
Thanks & Regards

Hi Laurent,
Please check the screenshots.

After approv status inquiry, it should not allow to change anything .

Hi,
As per the client requirement, we have assigned the three level status profile to in inquiry process like Block status, Review and approve status.
Block status-It is initial status. After save the document it will be in block status
Review status u2013It is the 2nd status. After review of authorized person, it will be changed as review status.
Approve status- If everything is correct, then higher authority will give the approval for same and will change the status.
Here client requirement is after approval of same inquiry document, it should not allow to anybody to change anything (quantity, material, any addition) in same document with va02 Tcode. Need your support if anything possibility is there for same requirement.

Shopping Cart Item deletable after approval

Hello all,
I have an issue regarding Shopping Carts: When a Shopping Cart is approved, gives a Purchase Order which is sent to Vendor, Requester can still delete Item of Shopping Cart, which has effect to delete Item in Purchase Order. I opened a message for SAP but they tell me this is the standard behavior which is for me a non sense!
I would like to know if you already met the fact that Shopping Cart Item being deletable after approval and if you corrected it, how?
Thanks,
Patrick
PS: I am working on SRM 5.0

Hi,
Yes this is a standard behaviour.
The business case is a user who made a mistake and do not have access to PO due to lack of authorization.
He should be able to delete his SC which trigger a delete status at PO item level.
Then , if system is well configured, an update output is triggered to communicate to the vendor taht the line item has been deleted.
If you do not want this behaviour, just modify the roel authorization in PFCG transaction.
Kind regards,
Yann
