Hi Munavar,
There are some OSS notes available for this issue based on the Service Pack.
Please let us know which service pack you are on to help you further and suggest the correct OSS note.
Neverthless look out for your custom code whcih you had written if you are using N-Step approval BADI BBP_WFL_APPROV_BADI for triggering / approving the work flow.
In case the issue is urgent you can use Manual (forced)approval using SWO1 txn.
Enter BUS2201 as object type and click on Test button and then click on Instance button and provide the GUID of the P.O (Use BBP_PD to get GUID of P.O) and then under Methods execute Set Released.
The P.O gets approved after the execution of set released.
Hope this will help you in resolving your issue. Clarifications are welcome.
Award points for helpful answers.

Purchase Order shows all Characteristics

Hi Gurus,
We create Subcontracting Purchase Order for a configurable Material Sales Order. The Sales Order shows only the Class but the characteristics are hidden during the print out but the Purchase Order shows all the characteristics when Printed. The Purchase Order looks like a mess as there are so many characteristics printed along with the Order. Can anyone suggest how to hide those characteristics when we print the purchase order? Any help is appreciated and points will be rewarded to the right answer.
Thanks!
SR

you can remove the flag for the filed P - Print Relevant
indicator in CL02 for the charcterisitcs assigned to the class
Enter the class in CL02, click on change, goto the Char tab page, here in Charcteristic line remove th flag for Print

VM2.2 manager page shows wrong status "Shutting down" for VM Guest

Hi,
VM manager page shows wrong status "Shutting down" for VM guest, I can very much connect to console and see it is up and running.
It happened when trying to shutdown VM guest manually but in parallel VM server got rebooted automatically.
Any information on How to correct the status in VM manager page?
Thank you.

I found below this solution on http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E15458_01/doc.22/e15441/appendix_e.htm#BHBCIAJB
To solve this problem, change the status manually as follows:
1.Make sure that the virtual machine in the target server has been shut down. Use xm list or virsh list to check the virtual machine name and ID.
2.If the virtual machine is running, use xm shutdown vm_id or virsh shutdown vm_id to shut it down, where vm_id refers to the virtual machine name or ID.
3.Use xm list or virsh list to check if the virtual machine has been shut down. If it is still running, use xm destroy vm_id, or virsh destroy vm_id to shut it down.
4.Log in as oracle (or root first, then su - oracle) to the computer where Oracle VM Manager is installed, and run the following commands to change the virtual machine status to Powered off in the Oracle XE database:
export ORACLE_HOME='/usr/lib/oracle/xe/app/oracle/product/10.2.0/server'
export ORACLE_SID=XE
$ORACLE_HOME/bin/sqlplus / as sysdba
SQL> update ovs.ovs_vm_img t set t.status='Powered Off' where t.img_name like 'vm_name';
SQL> commit;
SQL> quit
vm_name refers to the virtual machine name.
5.Retry your operation, or delete the virtual machine directly.

Purchase Order created in status expired

Hi,
we use SRM 7.0. After orderering a shopping cart and successful SC approval the purchase order is immediately displayed in status "expired". The PO can not be changed; there is no approval data. Event trace SWEL shows no entry /SAPSRM/CL_WF_PDO_PO READY_FOR_WORKFLOW.
Do you have any ideas on this behaviour?
Best regards,
Frank

Hi Frank,
I do not think PO has a staus "Expired".
There might be some development done in your organization.
My guess is delivery date might have been expired and your project team might have developed to show that as "expired" (my wild guess...)
Pl verify.
Best regards,
Ramki

Purchase order in 'Archived' status

Hi All,
We are using SRM5.0 ECS.
After SC is created for 'Free text' requirement, PO is created. When looking at the Purchase order in 'Process Purchase orders',it is giving the message as 'Error while reading the PO in backend system, Inform system administration'. When looked into Item details it is showing the status of PO as 'Archived'.
This is happening only for random Purchase orders. Please let me know what could be the issue.
Regards
Krishna

Hello,
Run FM META_PO_GETDETAIL in SRM, specifying the ECC system ID and PO number which has been created there.
Check if there is any authorization message.
I have seen a similar issue which was related to authorization of RFC user, who was not able to check PO details in backend.
Kind regards,
Ricardo

Purchase Orders - Subcontracting wrong movement type 545

First of all this is not about asking a clarification of what is MVT 545 or MVT 543
I'm asking why the system is behaving in this way however there is no BOM for the material or even negative indicator
Dears ,
We are facing a problem regarding subcontracting purchase orders , as for the same Material & same Vendor , some times while we are receiving purchase orders the MVT 545 shows up instead of 543 , This happen automatically and we ca not change it , However for other purchase orders for the same Material & Vendor it shows up MVT 543 which is ok for us
We need to make sure that the MVT is 543 while we are reviving , So could you please clarify the reason of this system wrong behavior
Note : our purchase orders are a reference to a PM order
The problem is that we didn't create any BOM for this material , and the second thing that some POs for the same material work fine and posts with MVT 543 not with 545

Here is the pictures
Firstly Here is faulty PO components
and here is while trying to post GR , the MVT 545 shows automatically
Secondly Here is normal PO components
and here is while trying to post GR , the MVT 535 shows automatically which is normal for us

Purchase Order in Held status

Hi -
We are using extended classic scenario - PO created both in SRM and backend ECC. We configured one level approval for shooping cart. Shopping cart is getting created and approved by the next level approver. However after the shopping cart is approved, PO is created in SRM with held status and backend ECC PO is not created at all. We checked workflow settings and other configs etc. - everything looks great. Can someone throw some light on this issue ?
Thanks

Purchase order with HELD status

Hi,
After approval of shopping cart all my purchase order are created with held status.
When controlling the purchase order i have the error message "Select a location to which a plant has been assigned"
Could anyone please give some explanation.
Thanks

Hi
Hope it would not allow to order a cart since you don thave a plant details?
check it up. If Po created check why plant details are not copied into your PO.

PCR "Status overview" showing wrong status

Hi,
We are implemeting Personnel Change Requests using Adobe forms. Our approval processes are working fine. But the status overview link in the "Personnel Change Request" tab shows wrong data. It shows the status as "Open/For Approval" for all PCR's submitted irrespective of the actual status. When i check in Started workflows from Txn:SBWP in R/3 i find that a few of these workflows have actually completed.
Is there any configuration that is to be done to display the correct status? Any inputs on this would be of great help.
Thanks,
Prasath N

Hi Raja,
Thanks a lot for your inputs. Finally i found the issue. I have not set the system status using the task TS50000049 and hence the system the notification remained in "Approval required" status. I was under the impression that this status is set automatically once the approval is completed. Initially when i started the development i had assumed that this task was also used to help in updating the data along with TS50000058. Since we are updating the data in background using certain function modules and BDC's i had removed this step in my custom WF.
I have solved the issue now but still there are some of the questions as given below. Please clarify these if you have any idea on this.
1. There are some hardcoded values like QN44, QN55, PMM4 that are passed to the business transaction. What are these values?
2. How is the system deciding the statuses on these values? Is there a place or table where these business transactions are linked to the Approval texts? 
3. I searched through table TJ01T and found list of business transactions for Notification but i just get an error (in WF log) if i try to use them!!!
Thanks,
Prasath N
