Process determination Rules

Hello all,
iam trying to understand the significance of the "Process determination Rules" tab under resource object is? i understand i can assign rules here which i have defined in the rule builder screen . what i want to know what effect will it have on any reconciliation that will be done for this resource?
thanks

Each resource object is comprised of one (or more) provisioning process and potentially
one (or more) approval process.
The resource object definition serves as a template to be referenced
when the resource is being provisioned to users or organizations. Since the resource
definition may be linked to multiple approval and provisioning processes, Oracle
Identity Manager must know which approval process and provisioning process to
execute when the resource is requested or direct provisioned to users or organizations.
This determination is made using the use of process determination rules.
Thanks,
Devendra

About the process determine rule

I'd like to have different approval process of requesting resource for different user type, and I know that we can implement it using process determine rule.Everything goes well if the requester is the user himself.But if a manager requests resource for his employees,we can't obtain the employees' info,as we have to use the user type as rule,so all of them have the same approval process.In this circumstances,What should I do in order to have different approval process according their user type ?
Thanks in advance!

As the target user is not known until the request is submitted you will not be able to invoke the approval based on identity type if anyone other than the user requests a resource for the end user.
in your default approval process you can have a task which will check for the identity type of the user and then according insert an approval task in the workflow that is required when the identity type is a specific value.
e.g. if identity type is employee approval by security dept is needed
Have the porcess determination rule that will serve if users place requests for themselves. if others place a request on behalf of the user then the process determination rule will evaluate to false and the default approval associated with the ro will get kicked off. It is in the default approval that you write the above mentioned adp that checks for id type and invokes / injects approvals tasks dynamically into the workflow. check the api's for instantiating an approval task. you will need to have uncheck the set disable insert checkbox on the approval task.

Process Determination in Rule Designer

Hi,
why is that i am not able to find Approval SubType under Process Determination Type in Rule Designer? I can see only User provisioning and Organization Provisioning under Process Determination Type.

What version of OIM are you on? If 11G then there is no approval process in OIM and hence there should not be any approval determination rule as well.

Error while maintaining determination rule in CRM

Hi,
I get the following error while trying to copy the existing determination rule. Could you analyse this please.
ERROR MSG:
Prefix number: entry missing for system CRD client XXX
Message no. 5W023
Diagnosis
Tasks, rules, and workflow definitions require an ID that is unique throughout all systems and clients. In this way, you can ensure that you can transport these objects from one system into another at any time (without restrictions). From a technical point of view, the uniqueness of the ID is ensured by what is known as a "prefix number". You can define a separate prefix number for every system and every client in table T78NR.
System Response
If a prefix number is not defined in the client in which you are currently working, it is not possible to maintain (maintenance terminates).
Procedure
Maintain table T78NR in Customizing, and create an entry for the system in question and the current client.
Many thanks

Organizational Management objects are identified by an eight-digit number.
In the cases of tasks, workflows, rules and task groups, this eight-digit number consists of a three-digit prefix number followed by a five-digit number which is determined by internal number assignment. The complete number must be unique across systems and clients. From a technical point of view, the uniqueness of the number is catered for by the prefix number.

Agent Determination Rule using Function Module

Hi all,
I am trying to create a custom agent determination rule using function module. But my rule is not getting invoked when the workflow is executed.
I created a custom rule and linked my function module (with proper signature).
FUNCTION 'ZRULEXXX''
""Local Interface:
*" TABLES
*"      AC_CONTAINER STRUCTURE SWCONT
*"      ACTOR_TAB STRUCTURE SWHACTOR
*" EXCEPTIONS
*"      NOBODY_FOUND
And I am hard coding some values into table ACTOR_TAB
REFRESH ACTOR_TAB.
CLEAR ACTOR_TAB.
IF SY-SUBRC NE 0.
    RAISE NOBODY_FOUND.
ELSE.
    ACTOR_TAB-OTYPE = 'US'.
    ACTOR_TAB-OBJID = 'XXXX'.
    APPEND ACTOR_TAB.
    ACTOR_TAB-OTYPE = 'US'.
    ACTOR_TAB-OBJID = 'XXXXXX'.
    APPEND ACTOR_TAB.
ENDIF.
But a worklist item is not being created for the users appended to ACTOR_TAB.
Is there anything am missing. Please let me know.
Thanks in advance
Regards
Raju

Hi,
Change it to following code. It will work.
REFRESH ACTOR_TAB.
CLEAR ACTOR_TAB.
*IF SY-SUBRC NE 0.
*RAISE NOBODY_FOUND.
*ELSE.
ACTOR_TAB-OTYPE = 'US'.
ACTOR_TAB-OBJID = 'XXXX'.
APPEND ACTOR_TAB.
ACTOR_TAB-OTYPE = 'US'.
ACTOR_TAB-OBJID = 'XXXXXX'.
APPEND ACTOR_TAB.
*ENDIF.

Agent Determination Rule Not Working

I have created an new agent determination rule in PFAC.
The category I used is "Agent Determination: Responsibilities".
I have also selected the "Terminate if Rule Resolution has no Result" option.
The container has one element in it which is NOT mandatory called "Clinic".
I have set up the responsibilities, where there is only one which catches all - In other words, I created a responsibility for Clinic "*". I have also assigned a position as a responsible agent. The position is linked to a person number, and the person has a user-name assigned - All are in the valid period.
If I test the rule, and do not enter anything for the Clinic, and click the test button, it returns my one agent, which is correct.
The problem is that in my workflow I have assigned the rule as a responsible agent. At runtime, the workflow falls over saying that the agent determination has failed. This does not make sense, since I have not passed anything in binding to the rule. As mentioned earlier, when testing it works fine. I have tried using the rule with and without binding but it wont work. If I change the step in the workflow to rather use position, it works.
Please let me know if you have any ideas - I am really battling with this strange problem.

I tried deselecting "Terminate if Rule Resolution has no Result" in the rule definition.
Having done that, the workflow now works correctly - It actually DOES find an agent and the workflow goes on as expected.
This is really weird, because if the terminate option is selected, it falls over saying that no person was found. Now with the terminate option not selected, it finds the agent - Is this a bug, or am I misunderstanding something???

Function Module Interface for Agent Determination Rule without Tables Param

Hi,
I'm currently trying to create an agent determination rule using a custom function module. I know that the function module must have a certain interface consisting of two table parameters to be accepted by the system.
But since table parameters are obsolete for a few years, what's the solution for this?
As workaround, I just copied an old function module with the right interface but that's not an ideal solution for me.
Did anyone else come across this?
Thanks and regards,
Max

Hello,
"I know that the function module must have a certain interface consisting of two table parameters to be accepted by the system."
So, you have to use tables. You can't use tables in a new function, but you can copy one that does.
What sort of "solution" did you have in mind?

Problem in Org determination rule

hi all,
i have postal codes assigned to the org model as attributes,(ie) the org unit is responsible for that postal code only, i have created org determination rule by selecting the postal code as an attribute, i have created bp in which i have mentioned one of the postal code which is in the org model,
when i run transaction i need only the org unit to be picked and shown based on the postal code mentioned in the BP , now it is showing all the orgunits which i dont need,
please suggest me what setting i have to do.
its urgent

Hi shalini,
while simulating the rule in pfac, i am able to get the correct org unit for the pincode, while running the transaction my problem is still the same getting all org units in the pop up, i am sure i have correct org rule assigned to org profile and profile to transaction.
to be clear, my requirement is, for a transaction type, i have defined prt functions "customer" and 'employee responsible' in UI interface setting of prt detr procedure. here the employee responsible should not be the user creating the transaction. this should be the org unit "sales group" which is having certain pincodes assigned in org model, the same value which is populated in sales group field should be populated in 'Emp responsilbe' field in UI of transaction type.
here my first problem is i am getting all the org units for the selection when running the transaction, where user doesnt know which org unit should be selected for the customer belonging to the particular pincode.
if i get value sales group field how can i get this value populated to Employee responsible field in UI
suggest me how can i achieve this.
ITS URGENT

Organizational Model Determination Rule

Hello !
I am looking for an organizational model determination rule which is looking for the Org Unit of the given employee responsible. Could anybody help?
Maybe a little more explanation. I created a partner determination procedure which looks for the employee responsible via the business partner. The system should then look for the organizational unit in the org model, which belongs to the employee responsible. Therefore I need an organizational model determination rule.
Thanks a lot!
Astrid

Hi Prajit ,
We want to determine Org based on employee responsible but not on basis of USER.
Employee responsible will be assigned to a particular position in Organization .
We want to determine Organization unit where Employee is assigned to that particular position.
When employee resposnsible is changed Org unit (Service ) should be changes .
Please suggest solution.
Thanks & Regards,

Business unit in mitigation control and business process in rule architect

Dear Friends
Can any one please tell me the difference between business unit configuration in mitigation control and business process in rule architect.
If they are same, why we are configuring the same two times.
full points awarded for good answer.
Thanks and Regards
A.Rama Krishna.

Hello Ailanani,
The use for these entities solely depends on the business and has to be decided between the implementors and the BPOs. This can vary a lot from organization to organization and thus cant be generally stated.
Also, as this would be an integral part of the implementation, would advice you to be sure and clear once you define them or take help from some GRC AC consultants who can guide you on the same. Without a clear definition of the BPs and the BU's you may end up putting a lot of time, money and resource for a thing which probably you might have to reverse later.

Hi,
I am not sure if the configuration of MSMQ is fine at you side, it is better to check my how to document too as here I clearly mentioned about MSMQ steps.
This is the direct link: https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/101531ad-bcf5-2b10-ac9c-c102908c1b7f

Storage Location Determination rule

Hi Gurus
Please i want to add a new storage location determination rule (ZALA) to the existing MALA, RETA & MARE. I'll appreciate if you can give me the menu path.
Many thanks, Felix

Hello Felix,
Please refer to SAP Note 124041 regarding the user exit for storage location. The function EXIT_SAPLV02V_002 is called by the function SD_STORAGE_LOCATION_DETERMINE.
Userexit EXIT_SAPLV02V_002 should always be called under the following
conditions:
a) there is no storage location present in the preceeding document
b) the delivery item is in creation (not change)
c) the rule for the for the storage location determination is not a
standard one (transaction OVLQ).
In addition I would also suggest you to go through SAP Note 396480.
Hope this helps.
