R12 Payable Invoice Approval - Issue - Requesting URGENT help please

Hello,
This is on r12.1
For some reason all invoices entered on Invoice workbench goes into approval mode "Not required" after we check the "initate approval" checkbox on the Action button.
This is happening irrespective of any supplier, amount we use.
We have no customizations in AME and APINVAPR workflow.
The system options approval tab has check box "Use Workflow for Invoice Approva" CHECKED.
The checkbox "Force Invoice Approval" is UNCHECKED.
We have run out of options and the problem is still persistent.
Please advise. How can we have invoices go through approval and not have it "Not Required" all the time.
Thanks,
Darsh

Hi Darsh,
can you review the AME configuration on the approval limits and the people assigned in the approval groups.
Also, is this is the first time you are using this feature ? If not, was it working fine before ....?
Also please check the below reference:
11i: APXINWKB - Invoice Approval Status Is Incorrectly Changed To Not Required when Approval is Initiated if Approval Group Contains FND Users [ID 331214.1]

  • R12 Payables Invoice Approval Workflow

    Hi All,
    We are using standard Payables Approval Workflow.
    The standard behaviour is that if we have 2 lines for an invoice, it sends the notification for first line first and waits till this line gets approved.
    Once Line1 is approved, it sends the notification for second line.
    Our requirement is to send the notifications for both the lines at the same time.
    Can someone please suggest how we can do this?
    Thanks,
    Amit

    Hi,
    Since it is a standard WF one cannot modify it.
    If we modify the standard workflow theres a chance of our changes getting erased when a patch is applied to the instance.
    One can create completey create a custom workflow and make it perform all the tasks performed by seeded workflow.
    Thanks,
    Vinod

  • Oracle Payable Invoice Approval with AME issue

    Hello,
    This is on r12.
    We are using AME for Oracle Payables Invoice Approval.
    We have a requirement that if the supplier type is of Audit, then Person "John Johny" is the final authority on that invoices. That means such invoices will have one and only one approver - "John Johny"
    To incorporate this, I did following AME setup
    1. Created a List Modifiers Conditions of type "HR People" and "FND User" and explicitly assigned John Johny in the condition.
    2. Created an Action Type of "Final Authority"
    3. Created a rule of "List Modification" type
    4. Attached appropriate conditions
    5. Attached List Modifier ConditionsMy probelm is #5 from above. Even after creating conditions of List modifiers #1, It is simply not showing up in list of values when setting up the step #5. Not sure what is missing. Any advise?
    Thanks,
    Darsh

    The AME does not apply any item class when list modifications rule type with final authority is applied.
    The drop down box for item class remains grayed out
    Thanks

  • Payable invoice approval

    i am using r12, tested payable invoice approval via approval management engine found following issues during testing;
    1. When I change Invoice amount through "view additional invoice details" in AP Invoice approval notification it shows the old invoice amount approved by user in "Invoice approval status report" and the revised amount in parables invoice window.
    2. Invoice approval status report shows incorrect invoice i.e if an invoice of Rs. 100,000/- is approved by 3 users it will show the total number of invoices approved = 300,000/- instead of Rs.100,000/-.
    could you please guide me what is the problem and how to resolve it.
    early reply is requested
    regards
    Zunair

    Dear its not the reviewed amount but it is showing that "total number of invoices approved Rs. 300,000/- while it is only one invoice and it is showing **total number of invoices approved = Rs. 300,000/-** if it is showing invoice amount than it is also wrong as I have sent only one invoice of Rs. 100,000/-.

  • AME Payables Invoice Approval

    Hi,
    I'm new to AP module and AME. Currently working on setting up a rule in AME for Payables Invoice approval. Here is the rule - If Invoice amount is greater than $50 it needs an approval from manager level1. I'm getting this
    Error : "This transaction's requestor lacks a person ID, so AME cannot locate the requestor's supervisor to begin the chain of authority."
    So I found out that I have to use attribute TRANSACTION_REQUESTOR_PERSON_ID which needs requester ID.
    1. How do I populate the REQUESTER_ID in AP_INVOICES_ALL.
    2. How to I stop the approval to only one job level.
    Please let me know.
    Thanks in advance.

    Follow the following steps to do the personlization:
    Open the AP Invoice window. Go to Help --> Diagnostics --> Custom Code --> Personalize
    Enter a sequence and description as desired.
    Condition tab:
    Trigger Event: WHEN-VALIDATE-RECORD
    Trigger Object: INV_SUM_FOLDER
    Condition: :INV_SUM_FOLDER.REQUESTER_ID is null
    Actions Tab:
    Seq: 1
    Type: Property
    Object_type: Item
    Target Object: INV_SUM_FOLDER.REQUESTER_NAME
    Property Name: Value
    Value: =select full_name from per_all_people_f
    where person_id = (select employee_id from FND_USER
    where user_id = :INV_SUM_FOLDER.CREATED_BY)
    and sysdate between effective_start_date and effective_end_date
    Seq: 2
    Type: Property
    Object_type: Item
    Target Object: INV_SUM_FOLDER.REQUESTER_ID
    Property Name: Value
    Value: =select to_char(person_id) from per_all_people_f
    where person_id = (select employee_id from FND_USER
    where user_id = :INV_SUM_FOLDER.CREATED_BY)
    and sysdate between effective_start_date and effective_end_date
    Save and validate the personalization. Close all window, open the invoice window again and enter the invoice details. Upon saving the invoice header, the person name and id will be populated automatically.
    Ensure that an employee is attached to the person entering the transaction (in the user definition screen).
    Hope this helps

  • Payable Invoices Approval

    Hi
    I need to customize the payable invoices approval method for the legacy data (data migration)
    Approach
    Get the API which the Workflow is using to approve the Invoices... and customize it... create a concurrent program and submit the concurrent program...
    after the data migration is completed enable the workflow...
    Can you pls let me know the API name which does the approval opeartion..
    I do not want to customize the workflow as it is a one time job...
    If there is any changes which can be done in the interface table pls let me know.. if i can do a manual update on to the tables, if possible pls let me know the tables for same.
    Regards

    Hi,
    We have done an extension on the approval workflow here.
    Basically, if you set the WF_APPROVAL_STATUS status of the invoice and corresponding invoice line to ‘WFAPPROVED’ then the invoice is approved.

  • R12 AP Invoice Approval

    We have a requirement to initiate Invoice Approval only for Prepayments. I was able to make the necessary setup in AME to take care of the necessary approval mechanism. However as the 'Use Invoice Approval Workflow' option is chcked int Payables Options, 'Standard' AP Invoices are also requiring approval. Now we do not want any approval for Standard invoices. Is there any way to implement this? There is a Force approval option, but that would require opening each AP invoice one by one and will be vey time consuming. Is there anyway to bypass Invoice approval for Standard Invoices even with 'Use Invoice Approval Workflow' is checked?

    Hello
    Go to PAYABLES>SETUP>INVOICE>APPROVAL WORKFLOW
    Click SETUP icon for Payables Invoice Approval
    Click CONDITION under Setup
    Click CREATE button
    Select SUPPLIER_INVOICE_TYPE_LOOKUP_CODE for Attribute
    Put Prepayment in String Value
    Click Apply
    Now go to Rules
    Click Create Button
    Enter Name - e.g. Require approval for Prepayment
    Click Next
    Click Add Condition
    Select SUPPLIER_INVOICE_TYPE_LOOKUP_CODE in (Prepayment)
    Click Continue, click next
    Add Action Type
    Then Finish!
    Note: You should inactive/delete the existing rules to prevent rule conflicts.
    Let me know if it works. Thanks.

  • Load XML in intranet ? urgent help please...

    Dear friends, I need urgent help: I have a CAYIN screen (which lets me display evetns, etc) and gives me the option of loading/displaying a FLASH (SWF) file, well, I need this SWF to load some XML data ("texto.xml") but  seems that when the CAYIN program which executes flash, does not allow the SWF to find the XML in the same folder...
    Then I tried many ways to load the XML file with no success till now. Some tries are :
    obj_xml.load("\\192.168.0.100\media\texto.xml")
    obj_xml.load("\media\texto.xml")
    obj_xml.load("texto.xml")
    obj_xml.load("../media/texto.xml")
    obj_xml.load("\\media\texto.xml")
    obj_xml.load("file:\\192.168.0.100\media\texto.xml")
    obj_xml.load("..\\192.168.0.100\media\texto.xml")
    I guess I am writting something wrong or forgetting something. Would anyone please help me ? because these files are in an internal server "192.168.0.100" (intranet).
    Urgent help please, thanks in advance,

    if the swf is in a directory with subdirectory media which contains texto.xml, use:
    obj_xml.load("media/texto.xml")

  • Accounts payable invoice approval

    Hello All,
    I am working on AP invoice approval workflow, i wanted to know whether there is any standard workflow for this.
    Cheers
    Manish

    Hi Manish,
    For Non-Po Invoices(Which uses Business Object FIPP) please check workflow templates WS00400004 and WS10000051.
    However for PO Invoices(Which uses Business Object BUS2081), i did not find any standard workflow templates.
    However you can build your own workflows based on the requirement you have.
    You can check workflow templates  and event linkages in transaction SWETYPV.
    Hope this helps.
    Please reward points if the hint is found useful.
    Thanks & Regards,

    Hi Nazeer,
    The value of Tan(45) is beng wrongly calculated by ABAP because internally the data type for all the Trignometric functions are represented as Floating point numbers.
    Please refer to this:
    The results of the following functions have the data type f:
    &#61599;     Trigonometric functions: cos, acos, sin, asin, tan, atan
    &#61599;     Hyperbolic functions: tanh, sinh, cosh
    &#61599;     Exponential functions (base e): exp
    &#61599;     Natural logarithms (base e): log
    &#61599;     Logarithms (base 10): log10
    &#61599;     Square root: sqrt
    In case you have any further clarifications,do let me know.
