PO Account Generator Workflow

We are customizing following account generator workflows:
1. PO Requisition Account Generator(POWFRQAG)
2. PO Account Generator(POWFPOAG)
Requirement: When user enters charge account manually for requisition/purchase order, SEGMENT4 value has to be updated based on business rules. Based on new SEGMENT4 value, charge account should be updated accordingly. User will be entering the charge account manually.
Problem: We have included required customization in these workflows. 'CODE_COMBINATION_ID ' attribute(charge account id) is updated with new CCID value. However this value is not getting reflected in the form.
Example: Charge account ID which is entered manually in the form is 14049. As per business rules, new charge account id will be 14052. However this value when passed to the form is not getting updated. When we see workflow attribute values from 'Status Monitor', charge account id is having the value 14052.
So the main question is whenever charge account is entered manually, requisition/purchase order form allows updating charge account through workflow? Generally, if project related information is entered, charge account can be overwritten with workflow. However in our case, we are not having any project related information. Based on charge account which is entered manually, we will be updating SEGMENT4 & then generate a new CCID. Any suggestions or pointers will really help.

Hi Asif,
Thanks for the reply.
I referred the links mentioned by you, but couldn't find anything relevant to re-triggering of Account Generator workflow.
The customizations I did are working fine and is triggering the workflow. But my Question is, what are the circumstances that re-trigger the Account Generator for a given Purchase Order.
To elaborate, say for instance I have created a PO for PO category 'Electrical Equipments' furnishing all other details and charge account is generated for this category, and the PO is saved. Now I come back and change the PO category to 'Medical Equipments' for the same PO, retaining all the other info same.
So here, will the Account generator be re-triggered to generate different charge account?
Kindly suggest.
Thanks,
Nivedana

Help Required in : PO Account generator workflow customization.

Hi All,
I am new to workflow, I want to customize PO account generator workflow in 11i. I need to build the logic to populate charge-account on PO.
I have identified the process in PO Account generator workflow but I am not sure whether I should pick the same process for modification or create new process.
As I don't want if any upgrade patch applied , it will overwrite modified standard process. I have read articles on preserving customizations but couldn't get much from it, they are very confusing.
Please help.
Thanks in Advance.

This sounds like Oracle Applications.
I suggest you ask your question in the E Business Suite section of the Forums, that's the place for Oracle Apps questions.

Query about Inventory Cost of Goods Sold Account Generator WF Customization

Hi
We are trying to Customize the 'Inventory Cost of Goods Sold Account Generator' workflow for our client in Oracle Applications 11.5.10 instance.
We have successfully uploaded the modified workflow and changed the GL Account Generator Process to point to the Custom Workflow.
Database is bounced after this change, but the changes are not taking effect.
Any help in this matter would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks and Regards

Hi,
You shouldn't need to bounce the database for any changes to take affect (although if you were experiencing the "existing state of the packages has been discarded" error then it would clear that).
Switch on debugging so that the workflow is persisted rather than being run in forced synchronous mode, and then see what route the process is taking. If you open the workflow from the database via workflow builder, are you seeing the correct version?

Matt

Account Generator within AP

Account Generator workflows are available in FA, PA, and PO to derive invoice distribution line account information for AP Invoices created from these feeder systems. We would like to use an Account Generator like workflow to derive the accounting for invoices entered within AP (via either the Invoice Gateway or Workbench forms). Has anyone done something like this? If not, does anyone have ideas on how to do?

Would anyone have example code of how to call the Project Supplier Invoice Account Generator (PAAPINVW) from the AP custom pll?
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

I have customized the PO Account Generator/Requisition Account Generator workflow in 11i. We have the similar requirement in R12,
is there any other way that we could implement the same requirement for building the charge account on PO/Req ?
I have heard about Sub Ledger Accounting Engine, but I am not sure how it can be used to implement the account generation on PO/REQ.
Over View on Requirement:-
Requirement is to generate different segment values for charge account on the basis of Project , Tasks, Expenditure used on the PO/REQ.
If anybody has idea on the same please share the related documents or implementation approach.
Thanks in Advance.

How Does The Account Generator Default The Accounts In Oracle Purchasing

I enter requisition in iprocurement, add a Project/Task. Where does the workflow look for the default accounts?
Thank you

Hi,
To Default the accounts, the Requisition Account Generator workflow - POWFRQAG would be called.
It is normal, that POWFRQAG does not default charge account for project based requisition.
You are required to customize the POWFRQAG workflow.

Error APP-PO-14040 in Po Requisition Account Generator (Doc ID 263850.1)

Purchasing Account Generator Needed attributes

Dears,
We have a requirement where it require to modify the account generator, the solution is to generate a new CCID according to a value stored on the Purchase order
DFF header.
I was looking on the WF Item to see how can i pass this value to the WF but i could not find any link with the PO at the first place.
WF Name is PO Account Generator

All the DFF attributes are passed to the account generator workflow by the code. Have you checked the HEADER_ATTXX values in the wfstat?

Account Generator Customisation

Hi All,
Can we define rules to default accounts based on DFF segment values ?
The requirement is the default the requisition distribution accounts based on the requisition DFF values selected at the header level.
Thanks and Regards,
MPH

Hi,
This can be done only by the account generator workflow customization.. You cannot use any seeded functionality for this.

OM: Generate Cost of Goods Sold Account (OECOGS) workflow

Hi all
I am new to apps and workflow, Can any one tell
1) when OM: Generate Cost of Goods Sold Account (OECOGS) workflow will run after the "workflow backgroud process" request (or) at the time "workflow backgroud process" request? ( when we transfer the data from OM to AR we will run this "workflow backgroud" concurrent Request. But i dont know when this (OECOGS) will run)
2) Can any one help to find out which exact package trasfering the data from OM to RA_interface_lines_all

For 1):
When a workflow is launched (create and start) from anywhere in the application a form or batch program, the workflow will continue to process all activities until it finds an error or it is explicitly defined to deferred the current activity. In that case the activity will be put in a workflow queue, so that later on the worfklow background process resumes such activity till the workflow is completed or again an error is hit or the activity is explicitly defined to be deferred.
So basically when a worfklow is launched, it will process as much as it can till it is completed. The background process will progress a workflow when it did not complete in the original kick off; otherwise it is not needed to run the background process to complete a WF.
Yes, the status monitor is a good tool to tell what stage a workflow process is at.
For second question you might need to open a forum thread on the involved functional groups.
