Needs to goto self inbox for approval

Hi All,
When we create Shopping cart we need to send a meesage to self Inbox rather line manager or some one. There is no need of check the amount value for approval. If anyone come across for this kind of process it would be appreciated with points if you could with me?
Thanks,
Narsaiah

Hello,
First of all, set the configuration for auto approval. Easiest way to do is use BC set.
Transaction SCPR20 :
BC Set : /SAPSRM/C_SC_600_000_SP04
Now, SPRO - SRM - SRM Server - Cross Application Basic Setting - Business Workflow - Process Controlled Workflow - Business Process Configuration - Define Process Levels - Select BUS2121 - Process Schema definition - Select 3C_SC_600_000
- Now click on Acceptance by contact person.
- Maintain Task ID 40007953 SRM Shopping Cart Approval (1)
Hope this helps.
Thanks

RFX Not reached Approver Inbox for Approval

Hi Friends,
We are experiencing a very strange cases.
In RFX approval process RFX has not reached Approver. When I check in Workflow through tcode SWI1 I dont see any agent assigned to it.
Functional consultant says that he has already set the ROLE right and all future RFX will pickup correct Agent.
Now how can I process the same RFX(which has not reached the approver and does not allow us to change and re-publish again).
Either this RFX should reach the Approver or else it should allow me to re-publish it again(Currently RFX is non editable, Cant Publish)
This is happening in Productive system
Thanks

Hi,
Since RFx will have versions.. if this is the change version of RFx... then you can delete the version by calling the FM 'BBP_PD_BID_DB_DELETE' and BAPI_TRANSACTION_COMMIT sequetially.. i am not suggesting this way.. this must be the worst case..

Need to do the security for "release" pre-approved batches

Hi Floks,
We need to control the finance users just for entering pre-approved batches and submitting only (not allowed for release) and then the finance manager will "release" the same batches and do the distribute costs.
Can any expert help me, if any posibility to do this? (11.5.10.2 projects)
Thanks in advance,
Surya

Hi,
Exclude the below Function from the Users' Responsibilities and also remove the REVIEW Menu because User can Release the Batches from this Menu as well. If the Users need to search the Batch for review then they can search using ENTER Menu.
Function Name: Pre-Approved Expenditure Entry: Release
I did for 12.0.4. No idea about 11.5.10.2.

Self registration with Approval

Hi,
I need to understand how this self registration with approval works. What we need in something on these lines
user self registers -> approver approves -> user gets access to portal
Can i create a user without any role assigned the him and when the approver approves, automatically some pre-designated role gets assgined to the user? I want my approver to just click on approve YES and not actually get into UME stuff.
Please help
-Alpana

Thanks for the reply Michael.
Yes, i have already gone thru company based self registration. But it does not specify the role assignment part :(. What i read was ok ... you register then u get assigned to the portal as guest user and then if approver approves the request the user becomes a COMPANY user. But then when the approver approves the request, does he assign the company related roles to the user? Or can that be coded somewhere?
Please help.
-Regards,
Alpana

Get PO Approval limit for Approver and substitute

Hello all,
Description:
When an approver assigns a substitute for approval, the PO Value Limit (HRP5503-LIMIT) for the position needs to be equal to or greater than that of the approver. If this is not true, then an error message saying u201CSubstitute has insufficient signing authorityu201D should be returned to the user upon adding the substitute.
Logic can be found in SAP program LBW02F01 (include)
under routine FORM / D1328_FIND_DEPUTIES
Here i need to fetch the PO approver details and substitute detaiils.
Please let me know about this.
Thanks in advance

Substitution is for the total inbox ...
I don't think it can be done only for Purchase Order or Shopping Cart or What ever it is...
You can use the Implicit Enhacement Operation to add code to the standard sap code...
Try to re-use the following code and get the value limit from the Business Object BUS4101.
"swc_create_object req_user 'BUS4101' sy-uname.
swc_get_property req_user 'ApprovalLimit' lv_calimit-approval_limit.
swc_get_property req_user 'ApprovalCurrency' lv_calimit-currency."
FORM / D1328_FIND_DEPUTIES -- In this, "gt_deputies" is the standard table used by SAP in the code which stores all the substitute uses..
You need to delete the user entries who are having value limit less than the approver user in the "gt_deputies".
I have done the same for one of my requirements.. but it was not specific for only PO.

PR.

We had also faced this problem.
You need to raise an OSS.
but we were on 4.0.SP08
surprised for 5.0SP07 this problem is continued
you will get a note from SAP to apply
the note which we got may not be applicable to you

PO should not go for approval if it is from a contract

Dear Gurus,
This company wants to approve the contract but the POs created from that contract should not go for approval again. Please give an idea to achieve this requirement?
Thanks,
Chameendri

Hi,
We need to define Contract under characteristics of PO approval process goto SPRO > Materials Management > Purchase Order > Release Procedure fro Purchase Orders > Edit Class
Enter Class : for example POREL , class type 032 > Char tab
Enter POCONTRACT under characteristics
Enter Contract Number under description
Enter CHAR under Data Type
Enter 10 under No.of characters and 0 under decimal places
Then go to PO release strategy > Classification
Enter Contract Number under characteristic Description and Value leave it blank
this is what we did in our company and it is working fine.
POs created with referece to approved contract is not triggering to approval process again.
I dont know whether you are still waiting for the answer.
Please try and let us know the results, if it works.
Thanks.

INBOX for ESS?

Hello All,
is there any possibility to show IBO_WDA_INBOX work items in ESS. i have a requirement to show Work Items in my ess menu. I added this WebDyn app and its configuration in my ess menu but when i click on items for approval it returns following error:
is it any way to show WORK ITEMS for ess?
regards,
ALI.

Hi Siddharth
You are, i was trying to avoid creating a new menu tab (like Manger Self-service) and combine ESS and MSS menu, but after a lot of challenge i found POWL INBOX is not gonna work in ess other than i add MSS role to my user which consequently added MSS menu.
At the end i created a new Z copy of MSS and just like what you said customize it for my requirement. It seems like without MSS menu we can not run such application with OBN authorization of MSS. This is not what i claim for testing purpose i added MSS role to my user and just hide it from NWBC but again in ESS menu i was able to access inbox but when i click on HCM links i received same error message.
Case closed by creating a cutome role in PFCG with MSS access.
Thank you all for helpful information.
Regards,
Ali.

SAP workflow sent mail to outlook for approval

Dear Expert,
I have created a custom workflow for sales order, when ever the sales order has been deleted i need to set a mail to manager for approval in outlook mail box. Is it possible to sent to outlook mail box with work item for approval.If they click on approval button the workflow needs to delete the sales order else it shoul retain as it is.

Thanks Shashank.
You have mentioned that we can read user profiles and send e-mails with help of agent assignment. But, you have also mentioned that this is the case where HR is not implemented. So did you mean that where there is no Org Structure?
In my case, we have HR implemented and we have an Org Structure. In the PO/PR release strategy we use Org Structure and Position to decide whom to send E-mail.
Now what is it that I need to do differently to make sure that the E-mail is sent to Outlook directly not via SAP Inbox.

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,

Permissions for Approving Review Activities via the SSP

I need a little help figuring out the necessary permissions I need to assign in SCSM 2012 R2. I'm trying to create a user role that will allow users to do only the following tasks via the self-service portal:
Approve a Review Activity
Reject a Review Activity
Mark an Activity as Completed
Mark an Activity as Failed
I want to ensure that users can only submit a vote for themselves for Review Activities. For example, if User1 and User2 both have to vote on an RA, I don't want User1 to be able to Approve on behalf of User2 via the SSP.
I've tried creating a custom role based on the Advaned Operators role, but that gives too many permissions (User1 can approve on behalf of User2). I've also tried creating a custom role based on the Read-Only Operators role, but then User1 can't approve
at all. Can someone point me in the right direction?

Activity Implementors is the first option. That allows the user to edit, vote and complete activities. however, this will not prevent approve on behalf.
I'm going to buck the trend here, and suggest that you should not restrict on behalf of approval. This can be a real hassle if someone goes on vacation or is otherwise indisposed. The general methodology for this is trust and verify, I.e. set up
an alert or notification for behalf of approvals that goes to a supervisor or have an auditing report that shows votes on behalf.
