Hi Anwar,
Please see the SAP Note No. [1261872]
which says
Approval Status Report retrieves no results
Symptom
You work in a company where Data Ownership is enabled (Administration -> System Initialization
-> Authorizations -> Data Ownership Exceptions -> Checkbox 'Enable Ownership Filtration' is checked).
You generate an Approval Status report or an Approval Decision report (Administration-> Approval procedures),
you specify the required Document Status and you do not specify a user name.
When running the report the following error message appears:
No matchingrecords found '<Document name>'(<Table Name>) (ODBC-2028) Message 131-183.
The report does not return any results.
This issue might occur when two or more peers add documents that trigger the approval procedure
and when one peer is not authorized to see the other peer's document.
Other terms:
Authorization, Approval, System message, No Matching Records, Approval Procedure,
Data Ownership Authorization, Approval Status, Approval Decision, creator, Originator,
approval Template, You Are Not Authorized
Reason and Prerequisites:
Application error.
Solution:
This issue is candidate to be resolved in a future version.
Workaround:
You can specify the specific originator name in addition to the Documents Status selection in the report selection criteria.
Close the thread, IF issue solved.

Madhan.

Problem in Approving Requisition Request in MSS UWL

Hi,
I'm facing problem in approving requisition request sent through Manager in MSS UWL.
We have configured standard process HR_MSSRCF_REQUISITION with ISR scenario is SRQ3. Workflow is WS45600028
Case: When I successfully Check & Send Requisition Request form from MSS Recruitment, it is coming in Manager UWL.
But, when i open the workitem for approval it is not coming as a PDF form with Approve Button in the bottom (Standard). Instead, it opening as per the below screen.
Please help to resolve this issue.
Regards

You should be giving the process reference number or workitem ID in transaction hrasr_test_process.
Which release you are on , what is the SP level of component EA-HRGXX?
Further as per note 972322 - HR Administrator: Migration WD4A - the start process application has been migrated to WDA.
Check the UWL XML configuration to see if the config is as below for the approval task...
APPLICATION     ASR_PROCESS_EXECUTE(For EhP4, otherwise application depends on the level of EA-HRGXX )
      DYNPARAM     WI_ID=${item.externalId}
      NAMESPACE     sap
      SYSTEM_ALIAS     <use your system alias>
A sample XML is available with note - 1371626 - UWL Configuration for HR Administrator BP version 1.51.
This appears to me to be a XML configuration issue. Collaborate with your portal and UWL config consultant.
Hope this helps.

Problem in approval process

Hi
I have a problem in approval workflow in sharepoint designer.I
use the following action:
start Approval process on Current Item with "these users"
and I declare "these users" with workflow variable (for example: user 2)
but when I check the workflow logs I see these two messages:
Approval was started. Participants: user2
Task created for user1 on behalf of user2
user1 is the person who create the Item which result in workflow running.but I want to create the task for user2.
what did I miss?
Thanks in advance
Regards

Hi croute, here is the picture
According to the person who create the item I chose the approver and then start approval process,
but I don't know why the approval process assign automatically to person who create the item!
Thanks for your response and waiting for new one :)

I-Procurement problems with approval hierarchy - Urgent!! Please help!

Dear experts,
I am having a number of problems in i-procurement (12.1.3). When creating a Requisitions in i-procurement on the screen when it arrives with the approval list, it has retrieved a personel who is not in the hierarchy list at all. (not using AME just employee hierarchy)
I have checked the usual setting such as making sure the document type settings is correct and the position hierarchy for the position raising the requisition.
In addition to this once proceeding with submitting the requisition the created time is completly wrong. It is displaying a date occuring in the past. And in the Justification field it has already been populated it appears that it has captured information from a previous requisition. Furthermore in the created by field it also displaying a name of a different user to the one I am currently using.
I am out of ideas as to exactly what the problems is. Would appreciate if any I-procurement gurus can take a look at my issue.
Thanks and Regards

That sounds like a feedback loop.
Does the tone alter in pitch when you alter input and/or output levels or move your microphone?
And have you checked your coreaudio device in *Logic Pro>Preferences>Audio* ? And your recording settings in *File>Project Settings* ?
And how is your monitoring setup? Directly from the Presonus, or do you use *Software Monitoring* ?
Does the tone stop when you hit Pause ?
2nd possibility: a note event somewhere triggers a synth - but that would also happen in playback, so it is a long shot.... it does not happen in playback?
regards, Querik.
ps: the advantage of smashing up things is that then you are at least sure you can't fix it anymore. Better keep some broken stuff handy, because you'll regret smashing up working stuff.

Purchaser Assignment / PrGrp:Workflow problem:No approver found.WS14000044

Hello,
I am facing a problem concerning the Workflow WS14000044.
In the organizational structure using transaction 'PPOMA_BBP', I went
to the bottom left hand panel. I have assigned a purchasing group to a
purchaser as follow :
Right click on a "Purchasing Group" and I select "Purchaser Assignment"
menu.
Then the right hand panel changes from "Staff assignments"
to "Purchaser Assignment". I select a purchasing group and I assign
this purchasing group to a purchaser.
But when i create the SC, the system does not retrieve the 'approver'
for workflow WS14000044. Error mesage in approval preview : 'no approvers'.
Regards,
Lina

Hi,
Please refer to the following ---
This workflow is started for a shopping cart if the
shopping cart requires completion by the purchaser before
actual approval. You define the criteria used to decide that
further editing is required in the start conditions. Provided that
these criteria are fulfilled, this workflow is started after the
purchaser has edited a shopping cart (and occasionally in the case
of a change during approval). After the purchaser has edited
the shopping cart, the creator receives a work item and
the normal approval process can start.

Problem in Approver Levels?

HI all,
I have developed a workflow in which there are three levels of Approvers.Initially WI goes to first to approver and there is one step in which i have called a task in which there is display method of ZOBJECT which displays module pool screen and on click of BACK it will ask you for decison Approve OR Reject.and if it is approved by Appr1 then it will go to Appr2
but the problem is if Appr1 will not execute the WI withinn1 hour then It will go to Escalator1 approver and if it is approved by Esclator1 then it will go to Approver2.
How to go to Appr2 From Esc1 appr.
Regards,
Arpita

Hi,
Iam not sure how you are trying to determine the APPR1 and ESCLT1, ( Assumption that by rule or approvers and the respective level escalators are configured in a table)
1. Try to maintain Approvers and escalotrs ina Z table withrespect to each level.
2. And in one BOR method try to read this table based on the level.
3. Get both the respective level approver and escalator and pass back these two values back to the workflow..

Problems to approve Purchase Requisition

Hello guys! How are you?
Here in the company we have the following issue:
- One specific user couldn't approve purchase requisition, so, the MM Consultant asked to BASIS Team to remove the WLC Parameter from this user, after this, he mays approve again.
My doubt is, It can interfere in this? I don't found any evidence about this parameter that can explain this issue.
Another doubt, What's mean the positions 1 and 5 of this parameter?
Thanks in advance guys,
Regards.
Danilo Cardoso

Hi Danilo,
Parameters are to fill field values automatically from memory. Most of the time, cleaing this parameters will solve problems like not able to display attachments, etc. In your case, if you would like to have technical understanding, you need to perform debugging to find out what specific field/fields were effected during approval process. The value in each position means as following:
Position 1:seems to always be set - but may be changed somewhere else
Position 2:Double-clicking on an object.Most of the time becasue this thing is not set the attachment does not open.By setting it equal to X we can achieve the same.
Position 3: WI technical view / user view wo ActX
Position 4: Enable forwarding ... to several users
Position 5: seems to always be set - but may be changed somewhere else
Position 6: This parameter is set to Display texts in logon language
Position 7: This parameter is used to set WF log technical view / user view wo ActX
Position 8: WF log user view with ActiveX
Position 9: WI user view with ActiveX
Position 10: No tips & tricks ...
Position 11: No HTML in execution of workitem

Problems with Approving Content

I have a problem when a person posts or edits content must be approved.
The other persons don't get a notifaction that content have to be approved.
And if the admin looks on the page and uses the approvement portlet there is nothing to approve.
In addition the content (i used normal textitem) can't be edited by anyone other.
Do i have to add the persons which should do the approvement to special groups or roles? Is there anything what i have to pay attention on?
Hope anyone can help and sry for my english.

hi,
As far as I know, for approval process to be run successfully, setup is required at the very start.
1. Under page group [Configure] tab, tick the [Approval and Notifications] checkbox.
2. Under [Approval] tab, design your approval workflow, ie. who will be the approvers and in what sequence.
3. Create a page under the same page group.
4. Under [Access] tab of the page, add users who can add/update contents to the page with "Manage items with Approval" privilege.
5. Add the "Edit" link on the page for the authorized users.
6. Add "My Notification" portlet for approvers so that they can be notifiied if any request of approval is outstanding.
That is what I do now.
Thanks

Problem with approving standard workflows.

We are testing workflows in Content DB prior to initiating a larger project. We have defined a serial approval workflow for uploading a file to a folder. When a file is uploaded, the approver can see the request but is not given the possibility to approve or reject the request.
The approver has been granted "approval" role with standard permissions "Set Attributes, Set Metadata, Discover, Lock, Get Metadata, Get Content, Set Content, Copy".
What can be missing in our setup that blocks for approving in workflows?

A few things to check:
1) That a message appears (briefly) on the outbound advanced queue (IFS_OUT) when the workflow is triggered. You can perform a "select * from ifs_out_table;" You need to be quick though.
However, if there is a build up of messages on the queue, but none are being removed, it would appear the Oracle Workflow process is not running.
2) If the message appears on the queue (briefly), then disappears, workflow is correctly dequeing the message.
In order for the approve/reject buttons to become visible in the Content DB Web UI, Oracle Workflow must repond on the inbound queue (IFS_IN) with seperate "notification" messages for each of the applicable responders.
If "orcladmin" was a responder for the worflow, a queue message may look like :-
IFS Queue Message Details:
Message Type: IFS_ECM_WORKFLOW_NID
IFS Queue Message Parameters:
IFS_ECM_WORKFLOW_PROCESSID=48799 (STRING)
IFS_ECM_WORKFLOW_RESPONDER=ORCLADMIN (STRING)
IFS_ECM_WORKFLOW_NID=3 (STRING)
You will thus need to monitor the inbound queue table (IFS_IN_TABLE) - and see if Worflow is responding to the request with these responder notifications.
If workflow is not returning notifications for each responder of the original request, then the Workflow process has failed / or is not running. You will need to check with the Oracle Workflow guys on how to debug workflow further.
If however, the notification messages are on the IFS_IN queue, but are not being removed, it means the Content DB agent responsible for processing inbound queue messages is not running.
The agent responsible for this is the InboundQueueListenerAgent. Check the Content DB node log file and search for entries relating to oracle.ifs.management.servers.InboundQueueListenerAgent
You will notice a table in the Content DB schema named odm_responder
SQL> desc odm_responder;
Name Null? Type
ID NOT NULL NUMBER(20)
REQUEST NUMBER(20)
RESPONDERUSER NUMBER(20)
RESPONSE NUMBER(1)
RESPONSEDATE NUMBER(20)
NOTIFICATIONID NUMBER(20)
For a particular responder to see approve/reject buttons for a particular request, I believe the notificationid value has to be non-null.
BTW - the message on the IFS_OUT queue will look something like :-
Q_NAME MSGID
CORRID
PRIORITY STATE
DELAY
EXPIRATION
TIME_MANAGER_INFO
LOCAL_ORDER_NO CHAIN_NO CSCN DSCN
ENQ_TIME

Workflow must return a notification id message for each person listed in the IFS_ECM_WORKFLOW_RESPONDERS queue parameter.
in the case above, the requesters are "ASLAM, CONTENTADMIN, ORCLADMIN"
Using the request id from above ..
SQL> select responderuser from content.odmv_responder where request = 43436;
RESPONDERUSER
38503
...etc
select name from odmv_publicobject where id = 38503
NAME
orcladmin
select notificationid from content.odmv_responder where request = 43591;
NOTIFICATIONID
notice the notificationid is NULL - meaning approve/reject buttons would not be visible
cheers
Matt.

Problem with approval notification

Hi Experts
for some unknown reason we get in the process workflow the error like:
Activity Definition
Name Is Final Approver
Internal Name HR_IS_FINAL_APPROVER_FCT
Type Function
Description Is Final Approver
Activity Version 4
Result Type Yes/No/Error
Default Activity Result Exception
Message Name
Expand Roles No
Function Type PL/SQL
Function hr_approval_ss.isfinalapprover
On Loop Revisit Reset
Cost 0
Function activity cost in seconds.
Error Workflow System: Error
Looking in the Diagram, it looks like, that everything is fine.But i don't know, whta this error means.

In some cases, when the requester has no Supervisor to approve the request, than the process hanging due to IS Final Approver. In this case you must check, if the Approver has an user account in the core application.

Problem with Approval Group

Hi!
I have created an approval group using 3 Single Tiers.
When i run the process, and it is in the first tier, the first participant 'Reject' the task (I'm using an interface with ADF). After this, the process instance should finish, but, it continues the approval flow. Is that correct? I think that if the first participant reject the task, the approval flow should finish, isn't it?
Thanks for your attention.
