Document Management in GRC 10.0 Process Control 10.0

Hi - Our Company is looking to implement GRC 10.0 Process Control 10.0. We have a bit of a challenge for which document management services to go with . Currently there is no integration between GRC 10.0 and OpenText or Sharepoint. I was wondering what solutions others have for Document Management in GRC 10.0
Thanks

Hi Sabita,
Did you check this article on Content Life Cycle Mngt supports all SAP GRC products. Check the link for detailed article and I hope this would be right direction for your company to go.

Can we rename ABAP roles in GRC Process Control to adhere to naming convntn

Hello,
We are working on a new implementation of the GRC Process Control 2.5 product. It comes with 11 standard roles. I wanted to change the names to adhere to our company's role naming conventions. Will this adversely affect any functionality. I know that in PC, there is a additional level of security that is maintained thru the NWBC. How will that be affected? And is it typical to have a non-sap security team maintain the roles/user thru the NWBC and have SAP Security maintain the ABAP users/roles?
Thanks in advance.

Hi Arvind:
We copied the standard delivered ABAP roles to our namespace, made a few additional changes and are using them no problem. We also copied the NWBC roles to our namespace. We have the default roles as reference. We did this for consistency, but also because ABAP roles and App roles can change as the App roles did in SP04. This way we compare the app roles before and after a SP to make sure we agree with any role changes introduced to default roles. This way, we don't unknowingly introduce changes to our roles based on the changes SAP introduces to their roles at any given point.
As far as the tester role goes, it is at the Process level. If you aren't sure go into the app under User Access => Roles and their tasks like you will assign it and restrict the selection to "proces". You will see it is at the Process level. As far as the rest goes, you seem pretty well versed in the security guide so I'm sure you know this, but as long as the level of the role is equal to or greater than the task you can assign it. Ex: You can assign a control level task to a Corporate level role but not a Corporate level task to a control level role.
I hope this helps.

Process Controls 10 - Missing application links

Hello
We are having an issue where three of our application links for process control are not appearing in NWBC. I have activated them in LPD_CUST. They were visible before I put them in a package and transport. After the populating the transport the links were appearing as Application 1 (Description in language English doesn't exists). I went into LPD_CUST and manually updated the description field for each link that was displaying this. All of the links were updated with the correct text and visible except the following:
Indirect Entity-Level Control Evaluations
Indirect Entity-Level Control Evaluations by Organization
Risk Assessment Results
I have tried to delete and re-copy from the repository launchpad but the links still do not appear. Below are some screen shots from LPD_CUST and NWBC. Anyone know why these links would not appear when the others do? Especially when they were appearing prior to inclusion in package / transport.

OK, to answer my own question.
It was not a "problem", but a "feature".
I had the server starting in development mode, so by default process instances are terminated upon redeployment.
Editing the setDomainEnv.cmd and setting
set PRODUCTION_MODE=true
solved my "problem".
Hope this helps s/o in the future.

Is migrating open application workflows to process-controlled WFL required?

Dear forum members,
We have upgraded an SRM system from version 5.0 to 7.0 (SP 7) and we have gone live in SRM 7.0 with the old application-controlled workflows still being used for old and new documents.
We are in the process of changing the workflow to the new process-controlled (BRF) workflow and this works OK for new docments in our test systems.
Can you confirm if we MUST migrate the old workflows to the new BRF workflow when we activate the new p-c workflow into the live system?
I would prefer to have the old application-controlled workflow continue for existing document approvals and use the process-controlled workflow for new ones.
My questions are:
1. Can we use both application and process-controlled workflows together at the same time (new docs use p-c workflow, existing approvals to continue to use A-C workflow while they run down)?
2. If not, can we migrate SC n-step BADI workflow to the p-c workflow (report /SAPSRM/PR_WF_MIGRATION_CFG implies not)
Any help or advice is appreciated as always!
Thanks a lot,
Nick

hello,
we are dealing with the same issue in a srm migration from 5.0 to 7.0.
We have a copy of the production system with a lot of open workitems based on application controlled workflows.
We build up new process controlled workflows and activated those for the new shopping carts.
The report for the migration (/SAPSRM/PR_WF_MIGRATION_CFG) of open workitems seems to be not sufficient, because
- all open workitems are going to be restarted, right?
we tried to approve old woritems from the powl, that seems to work. Simultaneously brf workflow works fine.
Right now we are wondering why it should not be possible to finish the old workitems application controlled and the new ones process controlled. Do we miss something?
Has anybody experiences based on customer projects?
kind regards
Carsten

Parallel process in Application engine

could any one explain me what is parallel process in Application engine where temp table is use?
give me with example?

Parallel processing is used when considerable amounts of data must be updated or processed within a limited amount of time, or batch window. In most cases, parallel processing is more efficient in environments containing partitioned data.
To use parallel processing, partition the data between multiple concurrent runs of a program, each with its own dedicated version of a temporary table (for example, PS_MYAPPLTMP). If you have a payroll batch process, you could divide the employee data by last name. For example, employees with last names beginning with A through M get inserted into PS_MYAPPLTMP1; employees with last names beginning with N-Z get inserted into PS_MYAPPLTMP2.
To use two instances of the temporary table, you would define your program (say, MYAPPL) to access to one of two dedicated temporary tables. One execution would use A-M and the other N-Z.
The Application Engine program invokes logic to pick one of the available instances. After each program instance gets matched with an available temporary table instance, the %Table meta-SQL construct uses the corresponding temporary table instance. Run control parameters passed to each instance of the MYAPPL program enable it to identify which input rows belong to it, and each program instance inserts the rows from the source table into its assigned temporary table instance using %Table. The following diagram illustrates this process:
Multiple program instances running against multiple temporary table instances
There is no simple switch or check box that enables you to turn parallel processing on and off. To implement parallel processing, you must complete the following set of tasks. With each task, you must consider details regarding your specific implementation.
Define and save temporary table records in PeopleSoft Application Designer.
You don't need to run the SQL Build process at this point.
In PeopleSoft Application Engine, assign temporary tables to Application Engine programs, and set the instance counts dedicated for each program.
Employ the %Table meta-SQL construct so that PeopleSoft Application Engine can resolve table references to the assigned temporary table instance dynamically at runtime.
Set the number of total and online temporary table instances on the PeopleTools Options page.
Build temporary table records in PeopleSoft Application Designer by running the SQL Build process.

Approver not determined process controlled workflow in SAP SRM 7.0

Hello all,
I have setup process controlled workflow in SAP SRM 7.0 EHP3 for shopping cart approval.
I have 4 approval levels.
I have used item-based Decision for entire document because for some items i want system approval.
In implementation of BADI /SAPSRM/BD_WF_RESP_RESOLVER, in the method /SAPSRM/IF_EX_WF_RESP_RESOLVER~GET_AREA_TO_ITEM_MAP, i am skipping the items for which i want system approval.
Also in method /SAPSRM/IF_EX_WF_RESP_RESOLVER~GET_APPROVERS_BY_AREA_GUID of BADI implementation class, i am keeping the approver table empty for the step which i want system approval.
For example i have 1 item in shopping cart and for 1st step, based on some accouting criteria, i want system approval for 1st level and the workitem should go directly to 2 approval step when shopping cart is ordered. This is not happening.
But if i have multiple items, and one item should have system approval based on some criteria and the 1st approval level should be system approval and other item should go to the 1st approver. This is happening and showing 'system' approver for item1 and 'appr_xyz' for item 2.
For shopping cart having only 1 item, If i approve the shopping cart in this state only, it doesn't go to any approver and is not usable.
am i missing anything in BADI /SAPSRM/BD_WF_RESP_RESOLVER??
Please let me know.
Regards,
Yayati Ekbote

Hi Adrian,
Yes it is possible to display custom workflows in the Universal Worklist, However, I am not sure what you are trying to do with a routing table. If the workitems are of type decision, you can use UserDecisionHandler (action handler) configured in the XML file to use the Approve/Reject functionality - we are talking about webflow connector here correct? R/3 connector?

Process controlled workflow - SC process schema evaluation

Hi experts,
at the moment I'm using the n-step item level approval in SRM 5.0.
We are implementing SRM 7.0. With the new process controlled workflow I'm not sure how to
implement the logic of our "old" system.
Depending on category and item value the SC item has to be approved by 0 - 7 users.
I've created an event which finds a Z-process schema via FM.
In the FM I've tried to change the process schema (debugger) for one SC item.
But the schema has been changed for all items.
Is it possible to use different process schemas for items?
When yes how can I set the schema e.g.
item 10 schema1
item 20 schema1
item 30 schema2
item 40 schema1
Thanks in advance for your inputs!
Regards
Stefan

Hi,
Schema Evaluation is document header level.
There are 2 ways for implementation.
1. Schema Evaluation returns Schema name. For example, 1 step approval, ... 7 step approval
2. 1 Fixed Schema and 7 level evaluations. 1 Schema has 7 approval steps and each evaluation returns true or false.
You have to implement GET_AREA_TO_ITEM_MAP method of Agent BADI to exclude/include items.
BTW. If you set workflow framework as Application-Controlled Workflow, your old workflow logic works without any change.

Masa

SRM 7.0 Process Controlled Workflow change

Hi
I have a SRM 7 process controlled Shopping cart workflow working ok, Approval based on value levels. The customer wouldlike to change this so that approval is also based on cost center attributes and also want at each approval level to have a reviewer.
Could anyone advise me how to add in a reviewer, as well as an approver for a particular process step, and also confirm that to have the cost center attribute taken account of at each process step, i would have to develop and code a new expression / evaluation ID, rather than use existing one.
Many Thanks
john

Hi John,
Reviews are common for all process level.. itu2019s not process level specify like approvers.. Also we can add reviewers dynamically by a simple BADI implementation and configurations as follows..
BADI Implementation:
BADI : /SAPSRM/BD_WF_RESP_RESOLVER
Enhancement Spot: /SAPSRM/BD_WF_AGENTS
BADI Definition : /SAPSRM/BD_WF_REVIEWER_RULE
Configuration:
We can see Reviewer folder for all process schemas..
For adding approver or pool of approvers for a particular process level, review my answer in the following forum.. Re: SRM 7.0 SP05 - BRF Item level approval does not work
Thanks!!

Complexity of using N-step BADI in SRM 7using Process controlled Workflow.

Hi,
Just as a big thought,
I have a Shopping Cart requirement, Here i am asked to develop a Custom workflow for SRM 7.0.
And the client is looking for us to use Process Control Workflows i.e(BRF integrated one).
I need to understand the complexity of using a N-step BADI.
How would be the complexity level if I use a N step BADI( ie Multiple approval levels on Line Item Based).
Kindly tell me the complexity of Using it and if any one has come across some requirement like this, then explain me that how did you face the situation.
Expecting an Earliest Response.
Thanks,
Shanky

Hi,
Is your project SRM 7.0 implementation project then you have to go for Process Controlled Workflow and if your project is upgrade then you can still go with Application Controlled Workflow but down line this has to switch to Process Controlled Workflow.

Risk Management & Process controls for non SAP client

Hi Forum Gurus,
I need clarity on the following: Can Risk managment 3.0 and Process controls be implemented for a non-SAP client?
i.e. Our client does not run SAP, but they are interested in RM and PC, so is this possible to implement?
Any advice would be highly appreciated.
Kind regards,
PREVO.

Hi Prevo,
Process control and Risk management 3.0 are delivered within same installation package files so it is same for both the applications .
Also real time agents for Oracle or peoplesoft are avaialble if you want to leverage the automated control functionality of PC 3.0 in non SAP environment.
Remember the automated control functionality is the optional feature of PC3.0.If you wish only to use the manual controls features of PC 3.0 you dont need RTAs(real time agent).
You can find further information about manual controls at http://service.sap.com
use the quicklink '/rkt' then the following menu path: SAP Business Objects for GRC Solutions -> SAP BO Process Control 3.0 -> Technology Consultant

Acceptance by Requestor - Process control workflow

Hi All,
I have followed the below thread and configured the "Acceptance by contact person" BRF for status REJECTED. Now when my shopping cart is rejected , i still see the shopping cart as awaiting approval.This is sometihng strange as i expected soomething like "In Your Inbox". In the approval preview i can see it is awaiting acceptance from me. however i am confused as there is no acceptance button in the detail of the SC.
do i need to go to edit mode? if i go to edit mode the SC workflow will start from the beginning as it behaves similarly when we modify shopping cart awaiting approval .however acceptance would have deleted the shopping cart item that were rejected and workflow would have continued from that step onward.
please do let me know what i am experiencing is standard or thereis something wrong ??
