Workflow for Approval of Appropriation Request

Dear experts,
I have been working on Workflow for Approval of Appropriation Request.
Even after carrying out all the required configuration, the process is not working. Following are the symptoms:
When appropriation request is submitted for Approval, I am maintaining user ids of approvers in the Partner field.The moment I click For Approval status the Approve Button is deactivated.Even when I log in from the Approver's user ID the button is Deactivated.
When I check the Business Workplace Inboxes of Approvers there are no Workflow related mails.
please help me out
Regards,
srikanth

srikanth,
Have you maintained all the configurations related to Work flow in IMG? like activating event linkage, assigning agents, approval schema etc...
Also, have you maintained the workflow automatic configuration in transaction SWU3,
you have to maintain the following:
1. create a user id WF-BATCH, user type system and maintain a password for this user (seek BASIS team help for doing this)
2. Assign SAP_ALL & SAP_NEW in user profile tab.
3. in SWU3, under Maintain Runtime Environment --> Maintain Workflow System Administrator , select line and click on execute button, select user - WF-BATCH, save and back.
4. then in the same screen select *Configure RFC Destination * click on execute, system prompts with the user id mentioned in the above step, you enter the password mentioned in the first step, click OK.
5. now select *Maintain Runtime Environment * click on perform automatic configuration button (f9).
6. Ensure that the option Maintain Runtime Environment turns to Green tick mark.
7. select Classify Tasks as General click on perform automatic configuration button (f9).
8. Ensure that the option Maintain Runtime Environment turns to Green tick mark.
Now can go to transaction SWDD, on the left side of the screen, in the field WORKFLOW enter this value* WS00300022* press enter. Click on test (F8) button.
In the Test Work flow screen select BUS2104 line, it shows a new line at the bottom of the screen with the following options:
Object type: BUS2104, Key:
You enter the appropriation request number in the field key (you cannot directly enter value here, choose drill down option (f4) then a new window pops up, enter the approp request number, click ok.
then click on execute (f8).
Now you can check in the approver's business work place under Inbox - workflow.

Need Approval process workflow?

Is there a workflow for approval and Reversal of Regular Journal

Thanks ,

For such activities you would probably better make use of ISR.

Forwarding Workflow for approval

Hello Experts,
A 'Maintain Position' workflow was generated by an employee. Ideally it should have gone to the employee's manager as first approver, but since the manager is not set up in SAP, the workflow has gone into error (its shows in Tcode SWI2_DIAG). I need to forward this workflow to another manager for approval as it's urgent.
I guess using SWIA might help but as I am new to workflows, I am not sure of the exact steps to be followed. Can someone please help me out on this?

if there is only manager, who is responsible for approving that WF for all employees..then you can assign that manager directly as the agent to that WF by changing it in WF. u can do this by choosing approver type USER and provide his SAP SYSTEM ID (IT105.SUBTYPE 1)in agent assignement at approval step.

Workflow for approving documents: rejected document

Hi expert colleagues,
at my client we are implementing the workflow functionality for approving documents (EhP2). I managed quite easily to set-up the basic workflow as described in the documentation. I have one question though, the problem is the following:
Step 1: a correction document is entered by the corporate consolidation team person 1 and a workflow is triggered
Step 2: the document is rejected by the approval agent of the consolidation unit
Step 3: the rejected document becomes available for person 1 of the consolidation team, but the person is not present that day. Another person of the consolidation team wants to pick-up the rejected document, adjust it and start the workflow again. This seems to be impossible, the rejected document can only be modified (or discarded) by person 1. Even if person 1 identifies a substitute, the substitute cannot change the rejected document.
Question: is there a way to let another person pick up a rejected document?
Thx, ewald

Hi,
you can probably assign multiple approval agents to one consolidation unit. But in the case there is a rejection by one of the agents the document goes back to the initiator.
The document initiator can only discard or change the document via the consolidation monitor, task manual posting. And the initiator is the only one who seems to have the power to call up a rejected document (in that way it looks a bit as a user specific held document).
Any extra thoughts or should I look on the workflow forum?

Workflow for approval Plant/Company code wise

Dear Gurus,
I am new to work-flow I want to change my work-flow according to company/plant wise .
Right now we have made a workflow with two release levels one for purchase and second for Finance.
We have got two companies under one client and same controlling area. But both companies have different company codes.
When Po is sent for approval the alert mail is given in SAP-inbox of approving authorities according to category like Spare,Raw material etc.
But due to same workflow the mail goes to both companies authorized persons so what happens person from one company is giving approvals for another company. So we want to sent mails to SAP inbox according to their company codes or if this is not possible than plant wise.
Thanks in advance
Himanshu

Hi,
As per requirement i think your workflow is working fine in particular plant, if yes means in your workflow container is there any company code is available please confirm the company code in workflow container
if company code is available means then you all just want to do is you need to bind the company code to your business rules and your open sql query should be based on company code also, then your agent assignment will automatically work for different plant.
Hope this helps,

Workflow for restart from a step

Hi,
I have created workflow. I have decision step and after decision step one more method calling BDC .if error occurs in BDC
i want to restart from decision step .
How to achieve this .
Can any one help
Regards,
Madhavi.

Hi Madhavi,
You can try the transaction code SWPR - it doesn't restart the workflow, it resumes from where it stopped.
Else, you can also start new workflow through SWUS with the same object key and change wf_initiator accordingly.
Thanks,
Anusha

OLM-SEL: Approval WorkFlow for Re-Booked Contracts

Configure workflow to apply the different approval flows for booked and re-booked contracts. Even with AME rules, you still will have to write the query to determine the type of contract being approved. The only good reason to use AME is to utilize HRM rules (ie, organization hierarchy) to manage approvals. Use of AME will not help you configure workflow based on whether or not a contract is being booked or rebooked.

Hi,
The another option is to delete the contract version.. you can do this calling the BBP_PD_CTR_DB_DELETE & BAPI_TRACTION_COMMIT by sequential. get the change version guid from BBP_PD and pass the GUID to BBP_PD_CTR_DB_DELETE. make sure you have put 'X' for iv_save_on_db flag... this is not good way to do.. but the worst case this might help..
or try to release the contract via SWO1 - BUS2000113 - SETRELEASED method..

Sending my callable object as interactive form thru workflow for approval

hai
I have created a sales order form as per the requirement given by sales head.Also i ve created a role in portal and have deployed my application implementing the rfc s required. i need to send my callable object(component1) to the saleshead with approve and reject button where when he approves notification mail should be sent to the required persons and if he rejects it should come back to me.(order initiator).i need to complete this soon and i dont have any idea about _+sending my callable object as interactive form thru workflow+_ .plz guide me with the steps(step bye step process) to be followed which ll help me to complete this project.

Can we know the reason why do you need to extract the Interactive Form from Workflow.When you are calling the workflow try to save the form in a shared folder and save the url of the shared folder in a field and try to acces it by using SAP Activity.You can create a button for that create an SAP activity and when you click on the button the Interactive Form can be opened.
Iam not sure weather i have answered your question or not?

You'll have to raise request for Dummy Organization. It's Order for Organization so will not appear for user.
I am not sure the full flow/complete requirement of your.
APMU, you want approval while creating Organization into OIM.
This is not possible OOTb when you create ORg in OIM.
You'll create 1 dummy Org
1 Dummy RO "OFO".
Attach one Object Form with this RO.
Raise request for Dummy Org and Give the name of Org on the object form for which you want approval.
In the provisioning workflow, use OIM API to create Org into OIM.
Done !!!

SharePoint Task List using Workflow for approver chain, gathering information from another list.

What I have is a Custom List, that got the following fields for each item.
ApplicationName(SingleText) OwnerApproval(Person) ManagerApproval(Person) InstallExeuction(Person)
Example data:
| ApplicationName: Photoshop
| OwnerApproval: Mister Blue
| ManagerApproval: Mister Red
| InstallExecution: IT Group
What I have now then, is a task list as well. Where the user can press new task, and type in their PC name (singletext) and a dropdown menu to choose what application they want, for instance Photoshop.
I'm not trying to make a workflow that starts when a new item is created to send an email to the OwnerApproval set for this specific application, Photoshop, if he approves it, a new email should be sent to ManagerApproval specific application, Photoshop.
And if the last person ManagerApproval accepts it, a last email should be sent to InstallExecution, which if this person approves the task is marked as completed.
I've been trying for mad now using SharePoint Designer and I almost got it to work.
Can anyone help me? I'm going mad here, I have VERY LIMITED knowledge in sharepoint designer.

Hi Plankton,
To achieve this goal, we can create with three Start a task process steps in the workflow and the workflow needs to be set to start when an item is created.
For example, the custom list is called Custom, and the task list is called Task Custom.
We can use the Task Status column for showing as Rejected or Excuted/Installed based on the users’ approval, so we need to add Rejected and Excuted/Installed values to the Task Status column. (same settings for Custom:ManagerApproval and Custom:InstallExecution
as Custom:OwnerApproval with their own column value)
Best regards.
Thanks

Workflow for MM purchase Requisition steps required

Dear all,
        I am trying to configure purchase requisition Workflow.
        I am working with Work flow, WS 00000038
        I have assigned agents to TS 20000162
        Now how to proceed further, do i need to maintain some more settings
        or i should try to test system.
        Regards,
        Gaurav sood

Under the assumption that things have not changed much since 4.70, here's quick introduction:
The workflow is started only when a relevant release strategy is found, so customizing of release strategies is a very important (first) step here.
In the Implementation Guide you find the customizing in the following path:
Materials Management
-- Purchasing
-- -- Purchase Requisition
-- -- -- Release Procedure
-- -- -- -- Procedure with Classification
Only the procedures with classification are relevant if you want to use workflow to notify about requisitions waiting for release.
First you must set up a classification class if that has not already been done. Derive your characteristics from the structure CEBAN. The online help is not too bad, I had never set up classifications before and managed to get it working.
If you need data that are not available in CEBAN, or you want to modify them for the purpose of determining the release strategy there is an enhancement you can implement, and there are customer fields you can use. The enhancement definition's name is M06B0002.
As an example of what you can do, I have used it to set the company code in one of the customer fields, and to change the account assignment type. However, whether you need this enhancement or not depends strongly on what data you use to determine your release procedures (a step in customizing you will get to later).
When that is done you define release groups and release codes. Release codes are defined within each release group. Whether you should use one group or several groups is often a matter of choice.
I myself prefer using several groups even if I don't have to, so long as it doesn't lead to having to define duplicate release strategies (which you will soon get to). So, if there is some characteristic that clearly separates your release strategies, e.g. the highest amount that does NOT require release etc, you can define one group for each value (group) of this characteristic.
For instance, if some company codes require release for everything worth more than 100EUR while the default is to require release from 10.000EUR you could create to release groups. None of your release strategies will be duplicates since the value from which release is required will be different and you thus need to have that as a characteristic.
You then check that the set-up of release indicators is OK, and then you are ready to start defining the strategies. Release stragies are defined within each release group, and use one or more release codes (two or more release indicators).
It is fairly self-explanatory once you get into the screens. The thing to be observant about is to not define overlapping strategies, as this will prevent the solution from working.
When you are done, and have tested the solution in DEV it is time to transport it to the QA system. That's when I got a rather unpleasant surprise. The classification data are not transported, so both the characteristics and class, as well as the classification data in each release strategy had to be redefined. And in roughly two hours I have to do it again in production.
It is possible to transport classification information, it is described in SAP OSS Notes (different solutions for different versions).

TEM Workflow for "Approval of Employee's attendance booking"

Is there any special configuration point, which I may be missing on, in order to trigger the standard workflow " Approval of Employee's Attendance Booking" thru ESS (t-code: PV7I)
