PO Workflow with Forecasting & Replenishment

There have been a number of posts about PO workflows either not triggering or triggering multiple times after implementing SAP Notes 764521 and 797775. I have also activated all the linkages mentioned in SAP Notes 595732 and 597784.
BUS2012-releasestepcreated event is triggering wo times
However, it seems like most people have just deleted the BUS2012.ReleaseStepCreated line in SWEC and it has worked.
Has anybody done this in conjunction with SAP Forecasting & Replenishment? If so, can you answer any of these questions, because they are driving me mad!
1. What do I use to trigger my workflow now? Should I delegate FREBUS2012 to BUS2012 and use the new BUS2012.Created event to trigger my copy of WS20000075?
2. If I am going to delegate FREBUS2012 to BUS2012 and I want to extend BUS2012, do I need to create a subtype of FREBUS2012?
3. When I make a significant change, all I'm getting is a BUS2012.Changed event, not a SignificantlyChanged event. Do I need to create an entry for this in SWEC?
4. Have I already gone mental?
Any kind of guidance here would be great.
Thanks a lot

Hi Lyal Schumann,
After seeing into the system i found something, i think it may solve your problem, but i am not sure. Try this.
1.What do I use to trigger my workflow now? Should I delegate FREBUS2012 to BUS2012 and use the new BUS2012.Created event to trigger my copy of WS20000075?
   In both the business object there is a event called created so use this event to trigger your workflow. " If you see FREBUS2012 it has said that it is subtype of BUS2012 so there is no need to delegate this again.
2. If I am going to delegate FREBUS2012 to BUS2012 and I want to extend BUS2012, do I need to create a subtype of FREBUS2012?
    It depends, if you want to enhance the business object you have to create a subtype of FREBUS2012. But i dont think so it is required.
3.When I make a significant change, all I'm getting is a BUS2012.Changed event, not a SignificantlyChanged event. Do I need to create an entry for this in SWEC?
It is required to create a entry in SWEC for the significantlyChanged event
4.Have I already gone mental?
   I dont know that. Just for joke.

SAP Forecast & Replenishment flat forecast (plain)

Hi,
I am currently configuring SAP F&R (Forecast & Replenishment) and I've found that it doesn't matter which is the configuration of any of our product / locations and we will always find a flat forecast after FR Processor run.
The forecast will take in consideration the DIFs so it will show the spikes, but no consumption fluctuations will be shown when the forecast is weekly displayed during a non-DIF period. The dayweights are dynamically calculated since the daily-forecast output reflects different values (only weekly forecast is constant).
If anyone had this problem or can give me any indications about how could it be resolved I would really appreciate it.
Kind regards,
Xavi

Hi Xavi.
I am configuring SAP F&R 4.1 too. I am not sure about your problem but the flat forecast after FR Processor could be because your time serie data (consumption values) are very constants (similar values). On the other hand what Replenishment Type do you have selected in F&R Mass Maintainance for Location / Product?.
In my case I have a problem with automatic order proposals release since I don't get the automatic release. I use Replenishment Type 11 and I have the profiles with large restrecitions to avoid the exception cases. I get forcasting and automatic order proposals but no automatic release. The system generates this message exception: (High Priority) Exception-based release check enforces manual release for order prop. 0000000179.
If anyone had this problem or can give me any indications about how could it be resolved I would really appreciate it.
We could get more working together.
Best regards.
Alberto.

Book on SAP Forecasting & Replenishment (SAP F&R)

Hi,
Is any book available on SAP Forecasting & Replenishment (SCM part of SAP Retail) which covers processes in detail with example.
Thanks.

Hi
To be honest, we don´t find consultant as well as project regarding SAP F&R, Due to which we always limited with F&R knowledge. You can find some basic information below.
http://www.scribd.com/doc/137256373/SAP-Forecasting-and-Replenishment-for-Retail-A-short-Overview#scribd
The best would be you should apply for SAP Training which could be offered online or personally.
In our case , we opted for Online training which was good to get F&R overview as well as some good slides.
With this information, I am sure you can explore by yourself. Please find below the links for training.

Single step workflow with multiple approvers (without using a group)

Hi,
is it possible to have a single step workflow with multiple approvers without using a group? This is for a contract document.
i want to add a number of users based on particular logic. The approvers are random and do not belong to any particular group.
DO let me know if it is possible or if any of you have done that.
thanks in advance.
regards,
rubio

Hi Rubio,
I believe the behavior would be, if individual users are added as approvers then the system would require each approver to approve the document. However, if you use the user group, you could set the role so that it would be either ALL or ANY.

Vikram

RAW editing workflow with Photoshop Elements 6

I have been using the following workflow with RAW images in iPhoto and editing them in Photoshop Elements 6. It seems to be working fine. Does anyone see a problem with my workflow???
I choose to edit in external editor (Elements 6), and the image opens in Camera Raw. I make my edits here because I really like the editing power of Camera Raw. After I am finished, I chose Save As and choose jpeg. The save dialog tries to save back to the Originals folder in the iPhoto Library that the RAW file came from, so I simply choose the appropriate event in the Modified folder and save it there. It replaces the jpeg that iPhoto had created when the original RAW file was imported. When I go back to iPhoto the changes are applied.
Now I realize that I can't reopen the original RAW file again in Elements without reverting to original, but that is usually not an issue. I also realize that messing with the iPhoto Library outside of iPhoto can be dangerous. Another drawback is that I haven't been able to open multiple RAW photos from iPhoto into Camera Raw so I can apply changes all at once.
But I can't see anything wrong with the workflow. Am I on the right track, or am I missing something?

No, I don't believe you can do that with RAW editing. By manually replacing the first modified version with your RAW edited version iPhoto will not update the thumbnail. You will be able to see the edited version if you go to the edit mode or full screen mode. But the thumbnail will not be identical. If that's OK with you then you should be able to go with that workflow.
If the edits are significant enough you might want to save the new file to the desktop and import as a new file.
You can try this on a copy of the iPhoto Library. Open the library package and move the contents of the Data folder to the trash along with the Thumb32Segment.data, Thumb642Segment.data and ThumbJPGSegment.data files. Then launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys depressed and follow the instructions to rebuild the library. Select the first three options. This will rebuild the thumbnail files and my reflect your edited versions. Again, make a backup copy of the library before trying this.
TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto (iPhoto.Library for iPhoto 5 and earlier) database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger or later), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 6 and 7 libraries and Tiger and Leopard. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.≤br>
Note: There now an Automator backup application for iPhoto 5 that will work with Tiger or Leopard.

Export PDF Workflow with Applescript and CS3

Hello,
I am setting up some PDF workflow with Applescript.
On a given moment, as my script runs and after getting some user-input answers to questions in some dialogs, my script tells InDesign CS3 to open the Export Adobe PDF window for the current document. I copied and pasted that small part of the script:
tell application "Adobe InDesign CS3"
tell document 1
export format PDF type to "Macintosh_HD:Test01.pdf" using "somePreset" with showing options
end tell
end tell
When you run this small part of my Applescript, InDesign opens the Export Adobe PDF window (as expected) waiting for me to click on "Export". That is exactly what I want, since the user is given here a last opportunity to change some values (for example page range, or spreads). When all is set, the user can click on Export to close the dialog and finish the script.
Problem: I was hoping that the Adobe PDF Preset "somePreset" would be selected in the first pull-down menu of the Export Adobe PDF window when this window is opened by the script. Unfortunately the last used preset is always selected by default. Anyone suggestions or help?
Kind regards,
Bertus Bolknak.

My operators enter the page range and filename into a dialog box. Then I set those in the script. I use the Press Quality preset to start with and then set the changes I want into a export variable. I set things like bleed, marks, page range, etc.
Here is an example:
set theProps to properties of PDF export preset "[Press Quality]"
try
delete PDF export preset "Schmidt PDF"
end try
set theStyle to {name:"Schmidt PDF", acrobat compatibility:acrobat 7, bleed top:"0.125i", bleed bottom:"0.125i", bleed inside:"0.125i", bleed outside:"0.125i", page marks offset:"0.125i", include ICC profiles:Include None, effective PDF destination profile:use no profile, effective PDF X profile:"No Color Conversion"} & theProps
make PDF export preset with properties theStyle
set properties of PDF export preferences to theStyle
set color bitmap sampling of PDF export preferences to none
set grayscale bitmap sampling of PDF export preferences to none
set page range of PDF export preferences to (item i of myPageList) as string
export document 1 format PDF type to (PrinergyFolder & myJobNumFinal & "_" & VerCode & ".pdf") as Unicode text without showing options
I am also doing this in Quark.

Workflow with item type and item key is in progress. Abort existing workfl

Dear all,
I'm using the below code from the submit button event to launch the workflow. The workflow works fine when I submit for the first time, when i try to submit for the second time from the same session it throws me the error as Workflow with item type and item key is in progress. Abort existing workflow.
Where I am struck,Kindly send me any solution.
I am using below code in oaf
public void workflow(OAPageContext pageContext,
String headerId,
String empName,
String userName
String wfItemType = "XXSample";
String wfProcess = "XXSample";
String wfItemKey = headerId;
OANavigation wfClass = new OANavigation();
// Create Workflow Process
wfClass.createProcess(pageContext, wfItemType, wfProcess, wfItemKey);
System.out.println("Workflow created");
wfClass.setItemAttrText(pageContext,
wfItemType,
wfItemKey,
"XXHDRID",
headerId);
wfClass.setItemAttrText(pageContext,
wfItemType,
wfItemKey,
"XXEMPNAME",
employeeName);
wfClass.setItemOwner(pageContext, wfItemType, wfItemKey,username);
wfClass.startProcess(pageContext, wfItemType, wfProcess, wfItemKey);
System.out.println("Workflow started");
Thanks,
Kumar.

Item type and item key forms unique record for the workflow session, you cannot have 2 instances of the workflow running for the same header id, in your case. Check if the process exists for the header id. If so, display a warning message without launching another workflow session, else start the workflow process.
Thanks

Replace AR Credit Memo Request Workflow with a new Custom Workflow

Hello friends,
We have a business requirement to replace the AR Credit Memo Request Workflow with a new Custom Workflow whenever an Invoice is disputed (Oracle Advanced Collections).
The Credit Memo Request workflow is being launched within the Oracle API arw_cmreq_cover. We thought of an approach wherein the Oracle form IEXINDTL.fmb can be renamed and the Custom workflow to be called in the WHEN-BUTTON-PRESSED trigger on Dispute Button instead of calling the program Unit IEXINDTL_CONTROL.DISPUTE (as in standard form) which inturn calls several API's and hence the AR Credit Memo Request Workflow. But this would override the other standard processes being carried out in these API's. Our requirement is to only replace the AR Credit Memo Request Workflow and not to override the other standard processes.
Does anyone have come across the similar requirement? Please let us know your inputs.
Thanks in Advance !

I ran across the same error today. Since it's been over a month, I assume you've fixed it already or decided you didn't need it at all? What was your fix?
For me, I noted that in the sample directory, a similar "createView" call (in End User Anonymous Enrollment) also includes this argument:
<Argument name='viewId' value='User'/>
When I added that to my createView call, the "Missing view id" error went away, and the user are gets created.
I'm not entirely comfortable with the value specified, though; seems like view IDs should be more unique. I would have thought it should have been something like this instead:
<Argument name='viewId' value='User:$(accountId)'/>

Using workflow with Oracle InterConnect

Has anybody had any experience using Oracle WorkFlow with Oracle InterConnect? I have created events deployed by iStudio to Oracle Workflow but when I try to send the message, the activity/function that I create (both PL/SQL or External Java) using Oracle Workflow Builder never get executed. Am I missing something? Are there any procedure I need to run with iStudio and Oracle Workflow?
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Edward

Hi Edward,
When you say that the function never gets executed, do you mean that nothing in the workflow is running, or just this step?
Is the system status set correctly? Have the event definitions been deployed from iStudio to BES? Have you completed the post installation steps for InterConnect for workflow development?
Is it just the workflow component that you are having problems with? Since the workflow adapter is essentially a customized AQ adapter, this should run fine out of the box.
HTH,
Matt

How to integrate workflow with files?

Hi,I know I must configurate workflow before intetgrate
workflow with files.But ,there are some problems! when i configurate workflow ,there is no confirmation window when it finished. so when i configurate files with workflow,the system say there is no workflow scheme, so i can't integrate workflow with files.!
anybody any idea(in detail)? thanks a lot!
2003-7-29

Hi,
When workflow has been installed, it should definitely say that it was installed successfully.
Also for WF to integrate with files successfully there are several additional languages that need to be installed.
I have a good set of install notes for workflow. Email me at [email protected] and i will send them to you.
Thanks and Best Regards

Collective purchase order linke with auto replenishment process

Hi!
This is with reference to linking collective putchase order with auto replenishment process.
For eg: an article defined with replenishment parameter(the reorder point and target stock). while running collective purchase order using transaction wf10...will system consider the reorder point and target stock and raise the PO.

Hi Jyotsna,
The collective purchase order should be used in DC level. That means, based on Stores STO, system automatically converts STO requirements into CPO.
If you want consider Reorder point and target stock, then this is putaway process. That means, DC will maintain and replenish stock based on your inventory norms fixed by you.
Hope this information will be useful.
Bye,

Workflow with Object Type LFA1

Dear Workflow Gurus,
My business scenario is as follows:
1. User will create the Vendor Master
2. Workflow will be triggered to the Manager so that he can check it (Display only)
Basically, I created a workflow with the following:
Start Event - BO LFA1 CREATED
Task - BO LFA1 DISPLAY
I have tested my workflow at SWDD and SWUE. It is working fine and I get the notification in my SBWP. I can then double click/execute the item in my SBWP Inbox and it will take me to XK03 (Working Perfectly). However, in a real time scenario, when I create a Vendor Master via either FK01, MK01 or XK01, I dont get any notification in my SBWP. Im puzzled as the test at SWDD and SWUE was a success.
Im wondering whether Im using the correct Object Type and Method for my START EVENT - BO LFA1 CREATED. Please take note that everything is Active, has been binded and I have assigned (Import checkbox) LFA1 in my Workflow Container
Please advise.

Hi,
It looks no event is created from FK01, MK01 or XK01.
Please activate the workflow event trace and check the event.
Regards,
Masa
