External requests and QA Approval procedure

Hi all,
We have the standard solution QA Approval procedure implemented. This solution is to become mandatory the approve of all requests in Quality Assurance systems before imported in production system. When I have an external request imported in the development system, it arrives with a different transport layer. The SAP suggestion is create a request of transport of copies, and after then copy the external request to this new request. The problem is that when we are transporting the new request (transport of copies), it also cannot be approved in QA.
I'd like to know if somebody already configured the QA approved procedure for external requests.
best regards

Did you put a message to SAP? I have never come across this problem.
What is your system release?

Query that will run on the items matrix and trigger Approval procedure

Hello,
We are trying to design an approval procedure whenever an item code appears in a certain UDT.
For example, we have many items in OITM.
We have 50 of those items also in @BIN.
The approval procedure should be triggered only when the document lists one of the items that appear in @BIN.
I am using the following query:
SELECT 'TRUE' where $ [$38.1.0] IN (Select code from [@BIN] )
The problem is that the query would only search on the first row and wouldnu2019t continue to the next rows.
Do you have any idea how to bypass this limitation?
Thanks in advance
Revital
SELECT 'TRUE' where $[$38.1.0] IN (Select code from [@BIN] )

Hi Revital,
One way to implement this functionality would be to use a UI API that verifies the values while filling the items in the Matrix. For this you would need a little programming knowledge but no extra license.
There is a lot of information including Code Samples in the SDK Package delievered with every patch of Business One.

Approval Procedure in service request/Service Order

Hi,
We are implementing approval procedure to set up an approval process in service request & order.
We have made the necessary configurations in IMG->CRM->Transactions->Basic settings->Approval settings.
The web UI component for approal procedure is BT_APPROVAL does not show up in assignment block of SRQM_INCIDENT_H or BT116H_SRVO. Therefore we are note able to view approval procedure in web ui.
Please let us how to activate this component in service order & request in web ui
Regards
Sushant

Hi Vikas/Sushant,
This has been implemented in standard in the component "SRQM_RFC_H". This is the component for Request For Change.
In your case you will have to do the same if you want this approval block for Service Order or Incidents.
It could be executed in 3 major steps:
a) Add BT_APPROVAL as an Usage in these Components through the UI Runtime Repository tool from the component workbench
b) Make this assignment visible by adding it to the Overview page in Runtime Repository and changing the Overview Page Configuration to accommodate this view
c) Make changes to pass the data to BT_APPROVAL. This will require you to enhance the component. the enhance the Component Controller and then change the method WD_USAGE_INITIALIZE in the component controller to bind the BTADMINH of the Service Order component with that of the BT_APPROVAL. Something like below
    when 'CUBTAPPROVAL'.
      iv_usage->bind_context_node( iv_controller_type = cl_bsp_wd_controller=>co_type_component
                                   iv_target_node_name = 'BTADMINH'
                                   iv_node_2_bind      = 'BTADMINH' ).
Please check RFC the component mentioned above for finer details.
Thanks!

PO Amendment and approval procedure

Hi Experts,
My customer would like to have approval on PO amendment, he want an approval on changes in price and quantity.
In SAP B1 before GRPO or AP Invoice anyone can do amendment in PO and all the amendment we can see through change log.
To have control on this kind of amendment my client need Approval on PO updation.
Can we have uery base approval on PO updation?
Pls. give me solution for the same.
Regards
Kamlesh Vagal

Dear Kamlesh,
once we use sap standard approval procedure, we cannot amend the PO once it is approved. you can do changes till the PO is not approved (by Rejecting or Not Approved decision). Once approved it cannot be changed. Here you can try to convince your client that SAP follows a basic principle that once document is approved it should not be updated. If you allow it to amend then the Approval has no meaning. In such scenario your client may argue that we'll have approval even for amendments then you need to do it thru customizaation

Request: PL/SQL, External Table and SQL Loader

I see lately Questions asked in SQL and PL/SQL forum regarding SQL Loader and External Table are being moved to {forum:id=732}.
Being an PL/SQL developer for some time now i feel External Table (and if i may, SQL Loader and DBMS_DATAPUMP) are very much an integral part of a PL/SQL development and the question related to these topics are well suited in SQL and PL/SQL forum. Even in SQL and PL/SQL FAQ we have exclusive content that discuss on these topics {message:id=9360007}
So i would like to request the moderators to consider not moving such questions out of the SQL and PL/SQL forum.
Thanks,
Karthick.

Delivery date and approval procedure

Hello,
My customer has the next problem. He generate a purchase order after approval procedure was ended. sometimes he wants to update the delivery date field in the row of the purchase order, but he can't do so because approval procedure restrict any changes in row level.
what can be done to solve it.
thank you all

It is always very interesting how people seem to simply accept that the system can not perform basic functions.
In our company, we are facing some critical issues because of this problem. E.g: a purchase order has been approved and teh supplier rings to inform us of supply delays. The procurement officer can not update the delivery date on the purchase order to document the updated delivery day.
This is obviously causing some major drama at the warehouse as they rely on the delivery date of purchase orders to prepare the space required to receive goods.
This is also impacting the work of the procurement manager who will possibly ring the supplier to inform him of delays when relasticly, the company has already been informed.
The approval process in SAP Business One is lacking a basic function of "loop" or simply a system to identify non critical fields which can be updated once the document has been approved (like a date, some remarks etc.).
SAP, it is time to work on a few basic ERP things.

OIM11g - Approval Workflow - Requester and Approver is same

Hi All,
I have a scenario where , requests are approved by a group. ( Resource Owners group).
and if anyone needs access to this resource, the members of the group will approve the requests.
What if any member of the "Resource Owners" groups raises a request on the same object ?? OIM functionally sends it to the group for approval, and it will become a self approval and is a conflict.
How to avoid this kind of scenarios.
Regards
Vicky
Edited by: vicky on Dec 7, 2011 5:18 AM

AFAIK I haven't seen any system property to stop this. SOA does not care about who the requester is and who are the approvers. The way Oracle has impletmented the identity service for OIM in SOA does not handle this. Seems there is no SOD checks. Open a SR which I believe should be taken as a ER.
Thus the workaround would be to get all the members of the approver group less the requester and assign to all the members. The member list should be comma seperated user ids.

Approval procedure for item and for business partner

Hi
Anyone has done somekind of approval procedure for an item or for a business partner?
Is there anyway to make this? Or just for documents?
Regards,
Vasco

You can only use SAP approvals for documents. You can construct a less controlled approval method for master items by first creating a BP mandatory "Approved" UDF", and using an auto refresh FMS to set it to blank unless "on hold" is checked when the BP record is created. This will prevent it from being used in documents. Then another UDF for an authorised user to initial the BP record as authorised and uncheck the hold flag. There is nothing to stop this method from being abused but you do have the History log so that you know who did what. I have not tested the exact procedure described but have done similar for documents (to force a save as draft) when the SAP Approval has been too restrictive. Otherwise it's SDK.

Approval Procedures and Stored Procedures

Hi All
I have a problem with approval procedures and stored procedures.
I created an approval procedure to check if a value in the udf is selected or not . if not then a messge is produced to ask the user to select the person to approve the PO.
Biut now the problem is the PO's are linked approval templates to the error messge don't show before the approval template screen.
Please assist.
Thanks
Bongani Dlamini

Hi Gordon
The stored procedure is just for validating if the user has selected the udf value.
It is not for approval*
I created an approval template for this purpose. So my problem is when I add the Po to the system the SP doesn't kick-in and alert the user to select the person to approve the PO.
Process Flow.
User captures PO then select the value on the UDF Field ( Approver) The value selected is linked to a query which is used by the Approval Template
If this method is still not supported then please let me know .
Thanks
Bongani Dlamini

SBO_SP_Transactionnotifaction and Approval Procedures

Hi,
I understand I cannot use SBO_SP to validate row level data in modules where the Approval Procedure are active.
Is there another way to do the following?
I have three header level and row level UDF's that I need to be validated before the users saves the document as draft in the approval procedure. Once the document enter the approval stages it can no longer be update to enter or change the UDF's, in the rows.
U_BU
U_DEPT
U_ProjectInv
Code being used fro other modules. I had to remove modules in approval procedure as documents would simply disaaper when saves as DRAFT.
MY CODE for non approval modules:
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
---+Force BU DEPT and PROJECT -- IN ALL REQUIRED DRAFT DOCUMENTS++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
IF @transaction_type IN ('A','U') AND @object_type = '112'
BEGIN
IF EXISTS (
select T0.Docentry
FROM ODRF T0 inner join DRF1 T1 ON T1.docentry = T0.Docentry and lineStatus ='O'
--select * from ODRF
WHERE
T0.ObjType in ('13','16','17','18','20','22','23','203','204') and
-- ('14','59','60','19''15', )Remove These object as SBO_SP is not compatible with Approval Proceedure
(T0.DOCENTRY = @list_of_cols_val_tab_del and NOT(T0.U_BU IN (SELECT code FROM [@sg_BU] where code = T0.U_BU)))
or
(T0.DOCENTRY = @list_of_cols_val_tab_del and NOT(T0.U_DEPT IN (SELECT code FROM [@sg_DPT] where code = T0.U_DEPT)))
or
(T0.DOCENTRY = @list_of_cols_val_tab_del and NOT(T0.PROJECT IN (SELECT Prjcode FROM [OPRJ] where PrjCode = T0.project)) and not (T0.objtype in ('59','60')))
or
(T1.DOCENTRY = @list_of_cols_val_tab_del and NOT(T1.U_BU IN (SELECT code FROM [@sg_BU] where code = T1.U_BU)))
or
(T1.DOCENTRY = @list_of_cols_val_tab_del and NOT(T1.U_DEPT IN (SELECT code FROM [@sg_DPT] where code = T1.U_DEPT)))
or

BEGIN
SELECT @Error = 1, @error_message = 'Business Unit - Department or Project missing from User Defined Fields or Rows'
END
END
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Kind regards
Eric

Hector,
Sorry for the delay.
The reason I understand it cannot be done as there are postings indicating that SBO_Notifications cannot be used with modules running the SAP Approval Process. I have seen the result my self, with documents disappearing when added as draft with no error message.
If there is a way around this I would appreciate help to implement?
Kind Regards,
Eric Walker
