How to re-start the workflow for Shopping carts in WAITING status

Hi
We are using 1-step approval work flow, and we get some strange issue. We can add approver in the workflow, but after we click order button and back to check status again, sometimes there will be "Ad-hoc agent not found" issue. Do you know how to solve?
And one workaround for user is to re-add the approval, and sometimes the shopping cart back to normal. But sometimes, after we add the approver, the shopping cart are in waiting status:
Workflow Item:
Workitem-ID 000000714642
Task WS10000276
Text One-Step Approval: Value limit: Shopping Cart
1000114698
Status WAITING
Statustext Waiting
Date 13.06.2008
Time 10:41:22
So may I ask how to re-trigger the workflow?

Hi,
Thx for that. I need to trigger the Approval workflow to go the the approval manager.
Can u give me the document on this? thx, kerry.liu [at] ap.effem.com.
Thx very much

N-step approval workflow for Shopping Cart-WS14000133

Hi Experts,
We have 5-6 levels of approvals for Shoppoing carts.All the SC needs to be approved by 5-6 managers based on their approval limits.All the approval limits are assigned at the Role level .(We have created Z roles)
Please let me know how and where to define the roles in BADI to activate the N-step approval workflow for Shopping Cart-WS14000133
Thanks,
Venky

To add to Masa's reply.
This Badi is well documented by the online help and it even comes with example implementations AND it is mentioned in full detail at help.sap.com

Workflow for shopping cart ordering not triggered

Hi Gurus,
we are running SRM 7.0 and we are facing a big issue in handling the shopping carts when created by interfaces.
basically, when we create a shopping cart via interfaces and not manually on the SRM, the shopping cart remains in status "Open" and it is not ordered. We can also see in the shopping cart (in the tab Approval Process Overview we can see that the Approval Status is Open - No Decision Made).
Can anybody give a hint on how having the worlflow to "order" the shopping cart executed also whenever a shopping cart is created by the interface and not manually?
Thanks a lot in advance (lot of points promised...)

Hi Masa, thanks a lot for answring!
- It is a new implementation
- We are using the new Processed-Controlled workflow
- it works if I manually create a SC from the standard webdynpro UI and I click the Order button.
- How can I check the receiving interface?
thanks!

Issue in Process Controlled workflow for Shopping cart in Quality system.

Hello All,
I ahve configured a Process controlled workflow in SRM 7.0 with custom resolver, and I am facing an issue taht the Workflow works well in Development but in Quality the approvers are dropped after SC is ordered in Quality system.
The SC Workflow drops the approvers picked up from the Interface method /SAPSRM/IF_EX_WF_RESP_RESOLVERGET_AREA_TO_ITEM_MAP and IF_EX_WF_RESP_RESOLVERGET_APPROVERS_BY_AREA_GUID of BADI /SAPSRM/BD_WF_RESP_RESOLVER. The approvers can be seen in the shopping cart Approval preview Tab until the SC is ordered.
I have compared the OSS notes relevant for Workflow, all of them have been transported, Also I compared and checked general Workflow settings, BRF Config and Process level settings in Dev and Quality, everything is same.
Also while debugging; the approvers can be seen in the decision set table in the create_process_forecast method of class /SAPSRM/CL_WF_PROCESS_MANAGER.
Kindly let me know what else i can check to find the root cause.
Thank you in advance for help!
Regards
Prasuna.

Hello Vinita;
Thanks for the input and sorry for the not so "ASAP" reply;
From what I'm seeing in from your 2 screenshot, i strongly believe that the problem is even before the Z implementation /SAPSRM/IF_EX_WF_RESP_RESOLVER~GET_APPROVERS_BY_AREA_GUID (in which the FM i ZSRM_GET_USER_FROM_PGRP is called. I think the problem could be in the process level determination ZSRM_WF_BRF_0EXP000_SC_APP100. Let me explain:
In your cases where not buyer is determined, in the approval tab there is not even a process level for buyer approval. If the problem were indeed in the implementation /SAPSRM/IF_EX_WF_RESP_RESOLVER~GET_APPROVERS_BY_AREA_GUID then the process level would be there, but the system will display, instead of the name of the buyer(if the buyer determination fails) a red label with the message: "With the strategy "Buyer determination" an approver could not be determined (or something like that..please check the image at the end of the text)".
I can propose a way to discard this: Implement the method /SAPSRM/IF_EX_WF_RESP_RESOLVER~GET_FALLBACK_AGENTS of class ZCL_BADI_SC_WC (in case you didn't know, in this method you can specify an "default" approver in case that the determination of approver in GET_APPROVERS_BY_AREA_GUID fails). The idea is to specify an default approval and see how it behaves:
If the user you indicated in the method GET_FALLBACK_AGENTS appears as approver, then yes, the problem is arises from implementation GET_APPROVERS_BY_AREA_GUID, in which case it could be a data problem (peharps in pposa_bbp?). You could also check in TX SU53 with the users with this problem to see if there's a missing authorization objetc.
If, in the other hand, the "default" approver is not shown, it means that the process level buyer determination is not even called, so you should check in more detail ZSRM_WF_BRF_0EXP000_SC_APP100 and /SAPSRM/CL_WF_PROCESS_MANAGER > Determine process restart –method ----- (i have never used this method, so i could not tell if it could be the source of the problem).
Also, you could implement the method GET_FALLBACK_AGENTS in this way so the default approver would be the WF administrator indicated in the customizing (or you could just append directly any user you want):
METHOD /SAPSRM/IF_EX_WF_RESP_RESOLVER~GET_FALLBACK_AGENTS.
   DATA: lv_admin_expr TYPE swd_shead-admin_expr,
         lv_admin      TYPE swd_shead-wfi_admin,
         lv_admin_type TYPE sy-input,
         ls_agent      TYPE /sapsrm/s_wf_approver.
   CALL FUNCTION 'SWD_WF_DEFINITION_ADMIN_GET'
     IMPORTING
       default_admin_expr = lv_admin_expr
       default_admin      = lv_admin
       default_admin_type = lv_admin_type.
   ls_agent-approver_id = lv_admin.
   APPEND ls_agent TO rt_agent.
ENDMETHOD.
Error of agent determination:
Please let me know the result of the test with the implementation of method GET_FALLBACK_AGENT. By doing this we could ensure if really the problem is in method GET_APPROVERS_BY_AREA_GUID or before. I just made the test in our system and I'm almost sure that you wont get the default approver, but i could be wrong.
Any question please let me know.
Best regards

Need to query workflow for Shopping Carts for a report

Hello,
I am not familar enough with SAP's workflow to know if there are tables or function modules that I can use. I am requested to develop a report to allow selection of a user's id and find all shopping carts where that person is in the workflow. Can this be done without re-inventing the world?
Thank you in advance and points will be assigned accordingly.

Hello Steve,
To remove action from specific workitems, you can do this in the UWL configuration file.
1) Download the configuration file (in ZIP format). Go to:
System Administration > System Configuration > Universal Worklist & Workflow > Universal Worklist Administration
Click to "Administrate Item Types and View definition".
Then download file 'com.sap.pct.srm.core'.
2) Navigate to each WI you would like to change:
- <ItemType name="uwl.task.webflow.srm.TS40007952"... (SC Completion)
- <ItemType name="uwl.task.webflow.srm.TS40007953"... (SC Approval)
- <ItemType name="uwl.task.webflow.srm.TS40007954"... (SC Approval)
3) Within those item types, put a new property to action reference "reject" for 'Actions' definition like below:
<Properties>
<Property name="display_order_priority" value="uwlExcludeFromPreviewDetail" />
</Properties>
4) Save and upload file again.

How do I start the script for Photoshop CS6 in Bridge CS6 image processor ?

I am new to Bridge and I am lookiing for a way to batch process images. I opened 'preferences' and did not find Photoshop CS6 under the script list. How do I open and run the image processor? Thanks for any help!!

I have clicked on 'tools' within Bridge but there is no 'Photoshop' in the drop-down menu.
Misread your post a bit and see you want the image processor, however, this should be in the same location as the Batch option. If you don't have Photoshop in that list it means the start up script is not active or not installed properly.
First check Bridge preferences / Start up scripts and see if Photoshop is listed inhere and has a checkmark in front. If no checkmark then set it to on, restart Bridge and try again. If no Start upScript at all first try restart Bridge holding down option key (Mac) or ctrl (Win) and choose reset preferences.
If still no luck try a reinstall of PSCS6 to also reinstall Bridge again. (you first have to uninstall PSCS6, be sure to have a back up of custom settings etc).

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 ?

Process Controlled WF for Shopping Cart

Hi,
We have implemented process controlled workflow for shopping cart approval.
1. Created a bespoke schema for the approval process
2. Defined 5 process levels in the schema
3. changed the BRF event at the schema evaluation level. It now
contains a constant with the name of new schema create in step 1.
4. Decision set used is item based approval for partial documents (Type 4)
4. The first process level is get the technical approval from bespoke
table based on material group. For that we have first created a
Responsibility Resolver Name - ZTECHNICAL_APPROVER.
We have implemented the BADI - /SAPSRM/BD_WF_RESP_RESOLVER. Assigned
the filter as BUS2121 and ZTECHNICAL_APPROVER.
5. Now we have placed the external debugger in BADi. when we create
the shopping cart the flow doesn't stop at the break point. The item
reaches to the last step of Automatic approval (Rejected).
6. We think that schema is getting evaluated, however the process
level is not getting called.
7. Before we created schema, all the carts wer getting "Approved" by
automatic step. In our schema the automatic step is "Rejected", hence
the carts are getting rejected.
Could you please let me know what could be reason for BADI
implementation not being called or is there any config step which we
are missing?

Hi,
I think your process level evaluation id is not true, that is the reason system skips the process level.. Can you check your evaluation event-expression code. What do you see in SLG1? For testing purpose change the evaluation id to 0EV000 and check. Make Sure you debug through the user(requester) that you are creating the SC. Please test and let me know...

I purchased the newest software update for my ipod touch 1st generation and it is saying it is it will now begin download but the status bar doesn't even appear? How can I start the download?

I purchased the newest software update for my ipod touch 1st generation and it is saying it is it will now begin download but the status bar doesn't even appear? How can I start the download?

Well first off you shouldn't have had to pay for a download (just an assumption from the word "purchased".
If you are trying to install iOS 5 on your iPod touch, it won't work they arent compatible. I suggest checking what version of software you are trying to install and posting it in this forum so people can have a better understanding.

How to find the workflow for Change Request for the PO's

Hi All,
We have a PO which is pending and we can't receipt it again nor make payment on this. After checking the Approval history for that PO we found that the change request has been made. The change request was to change the amount to be paid to R39196 instead of R58237.00. We don't know where to check the workflow for the change request to identify the cause.
what i need to know is how to find the workflow for that change request? The other workflows can be checked using the po_header_id for the PO's but i am confused with the change request workflow
Your input will be highly appreciated.
Thanks in advance
Rgds,
Sonia

For 11.5.10.2 run this query to determine the keys to search on:
Select wf_item_type, wf_item_key from APPS.po_change_requests where document_type = 'PO' and Document_num = 'put-PO-number-here'
Then use the keys returned by the query to look up the Workflow in
Workflow Administrator Web Applications / Administrator Workflow / Status Monitor
Search using the results returned in fields "Type Internal Name" and "Item Key" in Status Monitor
The query for change requests on a specific Requisition would be:
Select wf_item_type, wf_item_key from APPS.po_change_requests where document_type = 'REQ' and Document_num = 'put-Req-number-here'

How to avoid starting of workflow ?

hi there,
i have a problem:
on BO BUS2089 (Travel) i have a event 'CREATED'
on that event i have a workflow. everytime the event is raised the workflow starts. so far so good, BUT:
i ONLY want to start the workflow when the travel-request is created in portal (ESS).
But there is a direct way in backup where traveling-requests are entered by administration.
how can i handle this to avoid starting the workflow when it is done in backend system (HR) ?
reg, Martin

Martin,
You should be able to identify the program that is triggering the event. Take a look into the SY-CPROG. I am not absolutely sure, if this is the correct field, but check/compare all the fields in SY structure. There should be a difference between creating/changing the trip in ESS (with the web dynpro application) and creating/changing the trip in backend transaction.
If you can find the difference, it should be an easy task to prepare a check function module for the CREATED event to prevent the workflow starting in the specific circumstances.
There are probably also other alternatives, but this is something you should definately check.

Karri
