How to force note attachment in an approval process ?

Hello experts,
I am trying to find a solution in order to force an agent to write a note as attachment, during an approval workflow process, especially when the agent rejects.
Does somebody already implement such solution, and how ?
Thanks in advance.
Vlef

Hi Vlef,
after your decision task, insert step "Document from Template" (standard SAP task TS70008298).
this will display a document in the agents' inboxes that they have to fill in. You can create a doc template at design time (SAP has some standard templates you can use, or can create yourself)
or can specify the template at run time, by populating the correspondent workflow container element "WF_DOCUMENT_0001".
I hope this helps,

  • How forward User Decision attachment to previous approver?

    Hi all,
          I would like to forward the user decision work item - attachment notes to the previous approver. how to forward this?.
    In my workflow i have four approvers. if  2nd approver rejects/approves the work item using user decision and he is typing the text in the attachment by clicking attachment button in the work item user decision display. Now i would like to send this to the previous approver ... how to do tis?
    Regards,
    Roops.

    This attachment will be stored in the AttachObjects container eleent in Task 300052. You need to bind this container element in  AttachObjects  of Workflow container and create send mail step with this attachement being sent to the 1st approver.
    For all this it is better to copy standard Wflow and change accordingly in your custom Workflow.
    Thanks

  • How to send a group notification in approval process?

    I'd like to send a group notification in approval process, so as to tell them that they hava pending tasks in OIM.
    As if the out of the box does not support sending an email to a group of users. I have written the custom code
    to implement it, but I don't know where should I attach the adapter/event handler in the approval process.
    Any suggestions will be helpful! Thanks!

    Hi,
    I you can attach the adapter to to approval task as you attach adapter to other process task.If you are writing task assignment adapter then you can also attach this adapter in assignment tab.

  • How to create Request programmatically to trigger Approval Process

    My scenario is dificult... I need to start Approval Process when the user want to assign AD Resource to other user without Request service. So I want to create Request programmatically from Event Handler to start Approval Process for Provision Resource request type.
    Is this right Way?

    If you talk of request, you will have to use RequestService. You can use code to work with the RequestService to create the request and the approval for you.

  • How to print notes attached to calendar events

    My wife has been adding notes to her iPhone 4 calendar on a daily basis that are critical medical information.  I want to be able to print the notes. The event title shows up in print, but not the note infrmation.  Is there any way to print the note inrormation attached to an event ??
    I've been undergoing chemotherapy since Feb. My wife meticiously records date, place, drug info, medical notes each day as an event in her iPhone 4 iCal app as a note.  We can use the day and place for tax purposes, and looking for a simple way to do it.  Looking for any way other than cut & paste to a text file.
    Any help would be appreciated.

    Hello
    I don't have Outlook 2011 but only guess here.
    Generally speaking, AppleScript's "whose" filter is very limited and does not support list containment test. So perhaps you'd have to resort to something like the following script, which actually scans the events for test.
    tell application "Microsoft Outlook"
        my events_with_categories({category "Conference"})
    end tell
    on events_with_categories(cats)
            list cats : list of categories to be matched
            return list : list of calendar events whose categories contain every item of cats
        script o
            property ee : {}
            property cc : {}
            tell application "Microsoft Outlook"
                set ee to calendar events
                repeat with e in my ee
                    set e to e's contents
                    set cc to e's categories
                    set _match to true
                    repeat with c in cats
                        set c to c's contents
                        if c is not in my cc then
                            set _match to false
                            exit repeat
                        end if
                    end repeat
                    if _match then set end of my ee to e
                end repeat
                return my ee's contents
            end tell
        end script
        tell o to run
    end events_with_categories
    Notes.
    * Script is not tested.
    * IF this works but is too slow, we may try to speed it up by retrieving categories of events (list of lists) in one statement, by which we can dramatically reduce the total number of Apple Events to send.
    Good luck,

  • How to force Functional Module to use Batch-Process ?

    Hello all,
    I am calling a FM via synchronous RFC. No matter what I try the functional module is started
    in a dialog process in the remote system. This is inconvinient because sometimes the process takes too long and a timeout occurs. I also tried transactional RFC and asynchronos RFC but no  difference here.
    The FM will always be executed in a dialog process.
    How can I tell the functional module to use a batch process ?
    Thank you for your answers,
    Axel

    hi,
    use
      CALL FUNCTION 'HR_START_BATCHJOB_IN_OTHER_SYS'

  • Approval process should proceed if deadlins is missed

    Hi all,
    In the workflow WS10400002 (One-step approval) in SRM, when the deadline had exceeded the approval should happen automatically.
    While checking in the latest end tab, an alert mail can be triggered. but how do we make sure that the approval process happens automatically if the deadline is missed.
    Thanks and regards
    Kishan

    In the Latest End tab you need to make a Modelled deadline not a Display Text. If modelled deadline is done you have to name an outcome that branches out from the task where deadline is set. Now you use this step to complete the approval step automatically and after that create a Process control step that will complete the Workflow. 
    Just follow the steps
    1)You can use Latest End Tab in a Step which is attached to a task. Use Modelled deadline. Using this another branch is created from the step.
    2)Activate the Outcome Processing obsolete for the Step that needs to be sent to the Manager.
    3) Now put a process control in the branch that has been created due to modelled deadline. Use "Set Workitem to Obsolete" in the Function and provide the Step number in which the deadline step is incorporated.
    4) Now create another step at the branch Processing obsolete of the step that has the deadline and copy the above step with deadline removing the deadline part. This step is only for manager.
    use this accordingly in your Workflow.

  • Approval Process to Apply to Updated Documents

    Hi,
    My customer has a problem with certain Sales Orders not going through the Approval Process.  Users are circumnavigating the Approval Process in a sneaky way. 
    Let us say that we have a Sales Order with a value of £1000.  On hitting Add, SAP asks the user to submit the Sales Order for approval.
    If the user then clicks Cancel they return to the Sales Order entry form.  If he then changes the Order value to a figure which does not fire the Approval Process (for example £0) the system allows the Order to be Added.
    If the user then amends the Order back to the original £1000, he can Update the Order without firing the Approval Process.  I found out how this was happening by looking at the History of a Sales Order and have recreated the issue locally.
    I have found SAP Note Number 904373 - Approval Procedure not working on marketing documents.  This note states that the above scenario is system behaviour.
    Can this be changed so Updated documents will fire the approval process?
    Thanks
    Greig

    Hi All,
    Can we use the Request API to create the request (and then Approval) for other than ADD (object type like Disable, Enable etc) of a user like below
    long lRequestKey;
    long UserKey=1;
    long ObjectKey=201; //testro1
    HashMap reqMap = new HashMap();
    reqMap.put("Requests.Target Type", "U");
    reqMap.put("Requests.Object Request Type", "Disable");
    reqMap.put("Requests.Type", "U");
    lRequestKey = reqObj.createRequest(reqMap);
    System.out.println("Created request and got key :" + lRequestKey);
    reqObj.addRequestUser(lRequestKey, UserKey);
    System.out.println("Added the request user");
    reqObj.addRequestObject(lRequestKey, ObjectKey); // I am not sure if this part is right but without this it is giving me the error.
    System.out.println("Added the request object");
    reqObj.completeRequestCreation(lRequestKey);
    System.out.println(Completed and submitted the request");
    I gave it a try but the Resource detail is not getting populated in the request due to which request hang up in "Request Initialized" state. I tried by passing the Process Instance Key also but no luck.
    Any chance if anyone crack it before. Please tell me. Thanks

  • Trigger approval process when deadline had exceeded

    As such there is no system functionality to achieve what is required..
    Please create a program to check for deadline and use a workflow approve FM to explicitly approve your cart.. And run this program as a batch job..
    Hope this helps.. Please let me know if you have more questions (or need the FM to approve)..
    Regards

  • HCM P&F - Attachment section is NOT visible for the approver

    Hi
    Attachment possible in the process but after submission (with attachment), when approver opens the process, attachment section is not visible to them. We are using FPM forms.
    Appreciate your inputs.
    Thanks

    Thanks Chris,
    let me clarify.....
    I want that when a user click on "Back to Author" button, do_operations should trigger
    Your below part is really what what I want....
    "Now if you expect that when the user clicks "back to author" that you can "catch" that in your "do operations", then that is very wrong. "Do Operations" only gets triggered by the started "check", "user_event_check" and your "user events" set up as such. Things like "back to author" or "withdraw" are handled within the application itself.You would have to modify/enhance that in order to "catch" the "back to author" button press event."
    Any help on how to achieve this functionality would be greatly appreciated.

  • Why can I not attach a document to an email? Every time I want to send an email with a document attached to it, an error notice pops out. It tell me that the file is being used even when  it is not. How can I fix this issue?

    Why can I not attach a document to an email? Every time I want to send an email with a document attached to it, an error notice pops out. It tells me that the file is being used even when  iall other programs are closed. How can I fix this issue?

    Thanks Jeff, I was not aware that a template could be multi-page.  (All the existing templates were 1 page)
    But it worked, saving me some steps.  When I was finished I renamed the document, and locked it.
    Then tried to save it but  could not because it was locked.  I closed it, went to my Spread Sheet Folder ,
    to find it, it was not there.  The Finder could not find it either.
    So I start over again.
    I opened up Numbers and it showed my personal Numbers template folder, it contained both my new 
    original 4 page template and the vanished saved document!
    I tried to delete the template containing these document data and could not - I had to go to the Library/Application Support/Numbers to physically remove it from this folder. Then I started over again.  I Finally found out how to make it work: I can now "save as", and then lock, and it will go to place where I want it to be saved and locked.
    The secret is: Click on the document title in the menu bar, and it opens up  "Save as...", which works the same as in OS 10.4.11, and you can pick the place you want for saving.  Once done that, you can then lock the document in the same pull down menu, and then close it.
    I also found later that I can delete a template from its folder, by letting Numbers open the templates,
    clicking on the one I want to remove, then go to the "Numbers Menu/File/Move to...", select "Desktop"
    and from there the selected template can then be thrown into the Trash from there.
    It appears now that the real fault of the Numbers software is that the "Save as" command is not available in the "Edit" or "File" pull-down menus, but hidden behind the title of the document.

  • My phone is stuck in headphone mode even though the headphones are not attached to the phone.  How do I fix this?

    I am trying to raise the volume on my phone, but it is saying that the headphones are attached when they are not attached.  How do I fix this?

    I tried everything there was. I tried to plug and unplug, I tried to clean it and dry it, and I really didn't want to put my phone in a bag of rice for 12 or 24 hours because I wasn't very patient. So what I did was; I put my phone on headphone mode and put it on airplane mode, then I left it there for 5 minutes and turned airplane mode off and it was working!!!! Hope this helped.
