Error with WF : Approval workflow is ambiguous

Hi, I have actived the WF 14000044 Completion of shopping cart by purchaser (requester view) AND the WF 14000109 Approval n-step over Value Limit and a I got error message: Approval workflow is ambiguous
thanks
Dayana

Hi,
It seems for a particular condition,both the workflows are getting triggered for the event "SC CREATED"..Hence the message...
Please check the start conditions for both the WF's.They should be unique.i.e. Under which case the corresponding worklfow should be triggered should be definate.
HTH.

EBP PO creation - Approval workflow is ambiguous

"Approval workflow is ambiguous. Inform system administrator"
Could you please help me to fix this issue?

More than one WF is active which satisfies the same start condition. Please check if there are any WF's without start condition. This also contributes to this error.

Financials AWE - EOAW_CORE.ENGINE error when submitting approval workflow

I'm getting the following error when trying to approve or preview and save a requisition with approval workflow (awe) enabled in our stage environment. It works correctly in our development environment, and I've tried comparing all of the configurations, roles, permission lists, templates, etc., to assure that they match, but something is still awry. I've compared a lot of table contents between both environments; although I may be missing some. Can anyone give me some ideas as to what to look for to see what might be missing from our stage environment that might have been overlooked?

"Local event error" with AP invoice workflow

Dear All,
I work in AP module Oracle Apps. 11.5.9 version. I have problems with the AP invoice approval workflow (production instance). This problem occurs very ocassionally but is really problematic.
I couldn't find any proper solution in metalink.
We have customised the seeded workflow and works fine with all scenarios everyday. But strangely it happens that some functionality doesn't work fine.
Because of the above problem System Admin. receives thousands of automatic emails.
Description:
Event Error Name: WFENG_EVENT_NOTFOUND
Event Error Message: 3142: Process 'APINV/16880017_1' has no activities waiting to receive event 'oracle.apps.ap.event.invoice.approval'.
Event Error Stack:
Wf_Engine.Event(APINV, 16880017_1, JCP_APINV_M, oracle.apps.ap.event.invoice.approval)
Wf_Rule.Default_Rule(oracle.apps.ap.event.invoice.approval, EDD209EC55E662EFE0340003BA2CC156).
Has anyone encountered this situation before. If so please reply to me at the earliest.
Thanks a lot for your valuable time
Anand.

Anand,
See either Metalink Note # 277613.1 (11.5.9) or 330194.1 (11.5.10) - both describe the error and each offers a slightly different workaround. Note that they were easy to find by searching for oracle.apps.ap.event.invoice.approval :).

Error Message: No approval workflow found. Inform system administrator

Dear Gurus,
I've encounter this error message when I'm creating a shopping cart. "No approval workflow found. Inform system administrator"
I've checked the conditions at "SWB_COND" and it looks fine.
I've check Event Type Linkage "t-code SWETYPV" and its active "SAVED". It links to function module SWB_CHECK_FB_START_COND_EVAL.
Cost Centers and HOD are maintain correctly.
Need your advice.
Regards,
Santthi.

Hi,
The message you are getting i.e. "No approval workflow found. Inform system administrator" is because no workflow has been activated properly for the business object BUS2121(for the Shopping Cart).
Please check the following:
In SWE2,check whether the event linkage is activated for any of the workflows for the object BUS2121.If atleast one of the workflows for BUS 2121 has been activated,you should not get the message.
If any of the workflows has been activated,please check whether the start conditions for that workflow has been activated or not.Even if the start conditions have not been activated,the error message should not appear as the start conditions need to be checked when 2 workflows are activated in the system for business object BUS2121 for shopping cart.
If more then 1 workflow is activated,check the start conditions for these workflows.

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

Hi
Which SRM Workflow Scenario are you using (IS it Item level workflow or Shopping cart level Workflow) ?
Are you using customized SRM Business workflow or Standard SRM Workflow ?

Error in Leave Approval Workflow

Hello Experts,
I'm Using Standard Workflow WS0040077 for Leave Approval . I Activated the Event Linkage in SWEL .Did General Task in Agent Assignment . But when i run transaction PA30 . i get this error in SAP Inbox.
Following error occurred:
00 341
RFC_NO_AUTHORITY
Message text:
Runtime error RFC_NO_AUTHORITY has occurred
SAP System: EDV
Client: 100
Event container appended as attachment.
Event linkage not changed.
Event stored temporarily.
Events can be redelivered via event queue
administration (transaction SWEQADM).
so what should i do to solve this problem.

Hi,
Have you checked the workflow config in SWU3? It sounds like there may be a problem with the LOCAL RFC destination used by workflow. Click the 'Start Verification Workflow' button in SWU3 as a health check.
Also, are you testing this in the right client?
cheers

Error with Statement Rule: Reference is ambiguous

Hello,
Hopefully someone will be able to help me out with this inquiry. I have a configurator model where the BOM has been imported. Within this model, there are two BOM nodes of the same name (Item Number) but they are unique in the model by their effective dates. Basically, I have the following:
Model
__Feature1
____Option1 Eff_In: 1/1/2009 Eff_Out: 9/20/2011
____Option1 Eff_In: 12/21/2011 Eff_Out: 9/21/2090
If I create say a CONTRIBUTE statement rule referencing node 'Option1', I get an error that reads "The reference Option1 is ambiguous". I understand that I am getting this error because Configurator cannot determine which instance of this Option1 I am referring to. Can anyone tell me how I can specify the specific node required? I would have expected that Configurator would always look at the structure effective dates, but it would appear not. I have looked at using full path or properties as part of my node reference, but the effective dates don't appear to be a standard system property that can be referenced (unless I missed something).
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Paul Wentink

RE: [configsig] ambiguity error
Hi Lauree,
As Carole rightly pointed out, this issue has been recently fixed in 11.5.10 branch. This happens only when the ECO change brings one or more item’s attribute changes. i.e. for instance an OC undergone an ECO change, with {min=0 and max=null} prior to ECO change and {min=0 and max=1} after ECO change can cause this issue.
With regards,
Veerendra S.

Hi Lauree-
This is a known issue, and I had them create a fix for it in 11.5.10 when we were on 25-43A. Now the issue exists in 12 and I haven’t yet logged the TAR for that. We have exactly the same issue as we force all bom changes through ECOs, and even putting effectivity dates on the rules that match the effectivity dates of the BOM does not resolve the issue. Fix was produced off of TAR 7619362.994, looks like bug number was 8737252….not sure what release it was part of, we applied it as a manual fix, a jar file and an update to package body for cz_model_util_pvt.
Holler if you need more info.

I have a component that is currently in a logic rule. When this component is in a logic rule it works.
This same component was changed out on an ECO, causing 2 records in the BOM. One with an end effective date and another with a begin effective date. When I convert my rule to a statement rule, I receive this error. I’ve received this error in the past and normally I thought I’d just changed the effectivity range associated with the rule and that resolved the issue. But, it’s not resolving the issue today.
Is there any other way for me to resolve this without deleting the component in the bom that has been effectively end dated? I don’t want that route because that defeats the purpose of using an ECO and general foundation of why we use ECO’s for our healthcare products.
The reference 8003-518.8003-519.8003-502.029-4572-03 is ambiguous.

Building approval workflow that spans two system

Hi,
We are on oracle apps 11i.
There is a requirement to build a workflow that spans oracle purchasing and another procurement system for PR.
After purchase requisition is handled in the system it should be forwarded to the other procurement system.
the procurement manger would either approve the purchase request and continue with the cycle in the external system or reject and send it back to oracle for modification.
this is how i see the solution so far:
-enter employee name and relevant position that refers to the manager in the external procurement system
-add position to existing position hierarchy
- when PR is sent in hierarchy to above manager, a database trigger can run to send the data to external system
till this point,please advise if there is a more appropriate solution
for the inbound data, how should i update the workflow? What are the APIs that i can use to reject the PR and send it back to requester for modification? if approved, how to handle the PR workflow in Oracle? How to stop the buyer from autocreating a PO automatically from PR?
regards

Hi,
"Approval workflow is ambiguous. Inform system administrator"
This error comes when you have more than one workflow active and your start conditions has a conflict. ( means you have same conditions for both the active workflows)
Go to SWETYPV and find out your active workflows for the Business object BUS2121 and deactivate the one if both are not required. Select on the active workflow and go to details where you will find this FM SWB_2_CHECK_FB_START_COND_EVAL. If this FM exists then there is a start condition for your active workflow.
Then go to SWB_PROCUREMENT or SWB_COND and select your BOR as EC Requirement Coverage Request and findout the active start conditions for both of your active workflows. Analyse and if there is a conflict change it.
If you dont have start conditions for both the WFs then create for one with the create tab in SWB_COND.
Let me know if you need any further inputs.
Best regards,
Sridhar.

JV Approval Workflow

Dear Experts,
I need to create Appproval workflow for Journal Voucher. I had gone through the docuemnts in SPRO - financial accounting - tools - workflows.
I have created a small custom workflow with FIPP - Completed as triggering event. But i feel we can use the std workflow template provided by SAP, but dont know which one to select and how to proceed. If anyone has information, please guide me.
Any kind of help is highly appreciated.
Regards,
Lakshmi

Hi Lakshmi,
I am having a challenge with JV approval workflow myself and I'm wondering if you can help. Essentially, I need users to be able to post JVs below the threshold amount, and park (send for release) ones above the threshold. I just posted a note, the contents of which are copied below. Any guidance you can provide would be much appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
Kathryn
Our objective is to have senior accounting personnel approve/release journal entries that exceed a certain value, say $100,000. We have configured the release function for parked documents, using workflow WS10000051 with business object 'FIPP', event "COMPLETED" and release amount of $100,000. However, this appears to assume that staff have authorization only for parking, because if you have posting authorization, nothing stops you from posting a document over $100,000. It seems illogical that you have to exceed a certain $ value before the release will trigger, but if your document is below the amount, you can't post it because you can only park.
In order to avoid making approvers release every single journal entry, what we want is for users to be able to post any document below $100,000.00, but be forced to park ( save as completed) all documents >/= this limit. We tried setting up a validation on the document amount, but the error message forces us to exit completely, i.e. doesn't allow us to park the document.
Is there perhaps a different workflow that triggers at the point of posting, rather than parking, that will accomplish what we want?
Thanks,
Kathryn
