How to start approval procedure for a Document/Draft using DI API

Hi!
My code imports purchase orders from one non-B1 system to SAP B1 using DI API. The problem is that in B1 system there is an approval process configured and I need the newly created purchase order to enter this approval process.
Currently this is not done because approval procedure isn't triggered when creating documents using DI API.
I had an idea to create a draft of PO instead of the PO and then push this draft into approval process somehow. But I can't find a way how to tell DI API to start approval procedure for my draft/document.
Thank you for your replies!
Jan

Unfortunately there is no way to trigger the approval process for any object added through the DI API.
Your workaround of adding the documents as drafts is as close as you can really come but maybe you could extend it slightly - it will involve a UI API addon:
Make the addon mandatory, and add a UDF to the user table, for example "U_Approver" and a UDF to PO document, like "U_Approval"
- Set this U_Approval to yes when adding through DI and add as draft
- When user opens draft document in the application, check are they an approver (U_Approver = "Y")
- If they are not, and try to view/add a draft which is flagged as needing approval, block them from adding.
You could further expand your DI project to send a mail to the approver whenever a draft PO is added.

How to create approval procedure when saved as draft?

How can I create an approval procedure where the document is saved as draft?
Specifically, returns saved as draft where document total is greater than $3,000 need approval.
Thanks

Hi,
Approval Procedures cant be used in draft mode. Approval Procedure itself acts as document in draft. It wont do inventory postings & financial postings as well. Just create approval procedure with your requirement & try.
I am looking forward your reply,

How to create Store Procedure for export result select in .txt or .csv

Hello,
I'm using MSSQL Server.
How to export results query in .txt or .csv?
But
I can not use bcp or SQLCMD.

1) linked server
insert into txtsrv...table1#txt(CustomerNumber,CustomerName,EntryDate)
select orderid, shipname, orderdate
from Northwind..orders
Set up the linked server
Connecting a directory of text files as a linked server is easy. Here’s how:
In Windows, create a new directory for the linked server.
For this article, that directory will be E:\txtsvr.
Add that directory as a linked server with sp_addlinkedserver:
EXEC sp_addlinkedserver txtsrv, 'Jet 4.0',
'Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0', 'e:\txtsrv', NULL, 'Text'
That’s all that’s required to add the linked server txtsrv
as a connection to the text files in E:\txtsvr, but there are
no tables in txtsvr yet. Also missing is a required file, schema.ini,
which must contain a description of each table’s format.
You can learn more about schema.ini from the Microsoft MSDN Library,
but for now, just use Notepad or your favorite text editor
to create the file e:\txtsrv\schema.ini as shown in Listing 1.
In addition, create an empty text file in e:\txtsrv named table1.txt.
The file e:\txtsrv\table1.txt is now an empty table in the linked server txtsrv.
We can see that if we list information about all the tables in txtserv with
the system stored procedure sp_tables_ex:
EXEC sp_addlinkedsrvlogin txtsrv, FALSE, Admin, NULL
EXEC sp_tables_ex txtsrv
Text files are tables
We can’t issue a CREATE TABLE statement against this linked server,
but we have created a table easily enough. We can, however,
run INSERT and SELECT queries, if we use the four-part naming
convention <server>…<table> (that’s three dots):

Why you have to pass 14 parameters for DELETE and UPDATE? Do you have any Primary Key? If you do NOT have primary key in your table then in case you have duplicate information, SQL will update both or delete them together. You need to provide DDL of
you table. What are the data types of fields?

How to create repository folders to various file systems

Hi
How to create repository folders for various filesystems,and allow the user to do access those files(checkin/checkout)
Prasad

Please explain further.
You can create a file system repository for each of the file systems.
The document approval workflow is a functionality which is already available withing the portal.
However, be aware that the file system repository does not support custom properties and versioning.
In that case you might want to use a CM respository in the FSDB mode which lets you store metadata on the portal and the actual files on the file server.

Approval procedure for Outgoing payment

Dear all expert,
I want to know how to make approval procedures for outgoing payment. So, everytime user create outgoing payment, it can't be printed until it's approved by Chief Acct. Where do i set this approval, because i see in the approval module, there is no outgoing payment document.
Thanks

I have checked that, at least until 2007A version PL49 Outgoing payment has not yet added to Approval Template. You may use SP Transaction Notification to block some users for posting.
Thanks,
Gordon

How to configure release procedure for rate contracts release

Dear all,
How to configure release procedure for rate contract following are the requirements
they are two release codes c1 & c2 <=100000,>=100000
 if c1 is not there c2 has to be approved
 Change in the value of the rate contract contract
 Change in the validity of the rate contract
 Addition of deletion of line items
While using a non u2013 released rate contract in the PO an error message should shoot out.
Also the logic should be changed while using the rate contract in the PO.
The usage of the rate contract should be till the validity of the rate contract. i.e. the measurement should be end date of the rate contract and the PO creation date and not the delivery date of the PO. &
It should be possible to refer existing valid rate contracts in purchase orders.
Regards,
bhaskar

Hi,
In SAP rate contract is known as value contract denoted with wk. The release procedure for rate contract is same as that of other contracts and scheduling agreements. The tables for contracts will vary with SA (Scheduling agreement) .You may try and maintain condition records based on the customer combination and maintian the validity date of condition records as per your requirement.For contract and PO will have the same header/item table as EKKO/EKPO, and the release
class in standard is the same FRG_EKKO, you can use the same for contract.
To distinguish if it's a contract or PO, EKKO-BSART can be used.
For contract EKKO-BSART will be MK or WK, while PO will have NB/UB etc..
You can restrict the document type to set up the release strategy for only contract.
Of cause, you can also create your own release class Z* for contract copying standard
one FRG_EKKO via CL01/Class type 032, and then assign the class Z* to customizing:
OLME:
-> contract
->Release Procedure for Contracts
->Define Release Procedure for Contracts
->Release Groups
If you have already created the PO release class.
Assign a new chracteristic of Document Category -BSTYP
Please check below link for detailed release procedure. I hope this wil help you out .Thanking you.

Approval Procedure for User Form

Dear All,
I am developing a Requisition add-on. It contains 2 stages. First user creates a requisition & then the authorized person approves this requisition. My problem is that when user creates a requisition, an automatic alert should be on the authorized person side. I can use Alert for this process. But my client wants the same functionality as the Approval Procedure in Admin Module. Can I use the approval procedure for the add-on forms also. ? If yes, then how can I do that because Approval Procedure does not show the user form. Help me regarding this. Any reply would be appreciated.

Hi,
Approval Procedure is not available to User Form. You may try to create the similar process by SDK but that needs too much coding.
Thanks,

How to create a procedure in oracle to write the data into file

Hi All,
I am just wondered on how to create a procedure which will do following tasks:
1. Concat the field names
2. Union all the particular fields
3. Convert the date field into IST
4. Prepare the statement
5. write the data into a file
Basically what I am trying to achieve is to convert one mysql proc to oracle. MySQL Proc is as follows:
DELIMITER $$
USE `jioworld`$$
DROP PROCEDURE IF EXISTS `usersReport`$$
CREATE DEFINER=`root`@`%` PROCEDURE `usersReport`(IN pathFile VARCHAR(255),IN startDate TIMESTAMP,IN endDate TIMESTAMP )
BEGIN
SET @a= CONCAT("(SELECT 'User ID','Account ID','Gender','Birthdate','Account Registered On') UNION ALL (SELECT IFNULL(a.riluid,''),IFNULL(a.rilaccountid,''),IFNULL(a.gender,''),IFNULL(a.birthdate,''),IFNULL(CONVERT_TZ(a.creationDate,'+0:00','+5:30'),'') INTO OUTFILE '",pathFile,"' FIELDS TERMINATED BY ',' OPTIONALLY ENCLOSED BY '' LINES TERMINATED BY '\n' FROM account_ a where a.creationDate>='",startDate,"' and a.creationdate <='",endDate,"')");
PREPARE stmt FROM @a;
EXECUTE stmt;
DEALLOCATE PREPARE stmt ;
END$$
DELIMITER ;
Regards,
Vishal G

1. Concat the field names
Double Pipe (||) is the concatenation operator in Oracle. There is also a function CONCAT for this purpose
2. Union all the particular fields
Not sure what do you mean by UNION ALL particular fields? UNION ALL is a set operation applied on two different result sets that have the same projection.
3. Convert the date field into IST
SQL> select systimestamp "Default Time"
2 , systimestamp at time zone 'Asia/Calcutta' "IST Time"
3 from dual;
Default Time IST Time
05-05-15 03:14:52.346099 AM -04:00 05-05-15 12:44:52.346099 PM ASIA/CALCUTTA
4. Prepare the statement
What do you mean by prepare the statement?
5. write the data into a file
You can use the API UTL_FILE to write to a file.

The response as soon say that shine light on document reflects wording on manual into retina for purpose of consumption by cerebral cortex for the understanding the problem to formulate solution.
Or else you can try plain and simply English saying WHAT the problem is, without making assumptions that we understand your tables, your software, your database, your environment and your requirements.
And drop the "give me response as soon as possible" as no one here owes you a damn thing in terms of how quick to respond to your problem.
