Reg approval routing process

Hi,
I am following this note to define the approval process for the items to be uploaded.
It is
http://portalstudio.oracle.com/pls/ops/docs/FOLDER/COMMUNITY/OTN_CONTENT/MAINPAGE/PUBLISH_CONTMGMT/TECHNOTE_APPR_OVRW.HTML
I defined the approval routing at page group and page level and gave the recepient as one of administrative users.
I made one user having manage items with approval privilege.When I login as this user upload item in a region under some tab then the item gets added.It should not.
When I login as an administrative user and check my notifications portlet there is not item pending approval.
Therefore this approval process is not working.
Could u pls help me in that.
Thanx
-Vipul

If the tabs have their own security settings that user should not be able to see them. Check that the user doesn't also have View privilege on the page group - that might be overriding the tab privileges.
For updated documentation on the approval feature, please refer to the new User's Guide. This version is currently in beta for the upcoming 9.0.4 release, but applies and is generally accurate for the 9.0.2.6 release.

Internal Order: Approval Routes

Good morning,
We use internal orders in our company, on purchase orders and for goods issue.
However, we are looking for more control on the usage of these internal order numbers as users have been coding things incorrectly and we have to make manual corrections after the fact.
Is there a way in SAP to implement an approval route for purchase orders/goods issue situations where an internal order number is assigned? That way, the appropriate manager can approve/reject them before they are posted and have to be corrected.
If not, does anyone have any other recommendations?
Thanks in advance for your help.

Kristine

The IP Routing Process for VLAN's?

I have the CCNA Study Guide third edition. Chapter five, page 254 has a description of the ip routing process. It descripes the ip routing process using two nodes on different subnets and a router.
We've recently deployed VLAN's, so I'm asking if I replace the router with a switch in the description, if the principles would still apply? I'm also asking if someone knows of a link that describes the ip routing process when using a VLAN? I'm looking for documentation that's similar to what's in the book, but modernized.
tia

I do not have the book but i will try to help:
Switches dont do inter-vlan routing (Unless you are using a layer 3 switch) so if you are have different Vlans configured on your switch and want them to comunicate each other without a router you cant.
If you have a router the same principles apply to normal routing, remember that VLANS are just a way of dividing your clients, so your VLANS configured on your subinterfaces will appear directly connected on your ip route table. For example:
VLAN 10: 192.168.10.0
VLAN 20: 192.168.20.0
VLAN 30: 192.168.30.0
You have vlan 10 and 20 locally on a lan interface (They will be directly connected on your ip route) but vlan 30 is reachable thru a serial interface (ppp or frame relay) you would use:
ip route 192.168.30.0 255.255.255.0 serialx/x

Timesheet Approval Configuration - Fixed Approval Routing

Hello,
Currently our timesheet configuration is through chain approvals. Team member submits to their manager, manager does approval and sends to me (timesheet manager). I have Fixed Approval Routing unchecked, as I would like for the Manager to be able to select
me as manager to approve. However, after unchecking Fixed Approval Routing, it doesn't seem to pop up for managers to select me as the timesheet manager. They just get the dialogue box to click OK when approving. Is there a configuration I'm missing? I tried
this for every manager by delegating and it seems it just goes directly to their timesheet manager without having a message to send to. Previously, it would work fine, but after a few configuration tweaks it stopped popping up to select timesheet manager.
Johnny Eltawn, Project Server Admin

For Project Server 2013, Try following:
Add yourself in the "Timesheet Managers" list, which can be set under "Server Settings" -> "Timesheet
Managers"
Update Team member and make yourself as "Timesheet
Manager"
thru "Manage User" or thru "Resource Centre."
Update following setting on "Server
Settings" page, in the "Time and Task Management"
section, click "Timesheet Settings and Defaults"
Select the "Fixed Approval Routing" check box.
Under "Task Status Manager Approval", choose "Enabled" if you want managers to be able to approve individual
timesheet lines. You can also choose to "require line approval before timesheet approval."
Hope this will help you.

ORA-2001:The approver group Process MFG Approvals has dynamic query in wron

ERROR ORA-2001:The approver group Process MFG Approvals has dynamic query in
wrong format in 11i
We are setting up the Approver Group 'Process MFG
Approvals" using a dynamic query, like:
SELECT PAPF.EMPLOYEE_NUMBER
FROM PER_ALL_PEOPLE_F PAPF,
fnd_lookup_values FLV
WHERE FLV.MEANING=PAPF.EMPLOYEE_NUMBER
AND lookup_type='SUG_SAMPLE_NOTIFICATION'
AND SYSDATE BETWEEN papf.effective_start_date AND papf.effective_end_date
AND FLV.LOOKUP_CODE= (SELECT GME.PLANT_CODE FROM GME_BATCH_HEADER GME WHERE
GME.BATCH_ID=:transactionId)
- Above query is passing the validation action from within the setup screen.
- However, when this approver group is being invoked via Sample Creation
workflow, there is following error raised:
ORA-20001:The approver group Process MFG Approvals has dynamic query in
wrong format
More, if user is trying to use a more simple query like:
select distinct person_id from PER_ALL_PEOPLE_F where full_name = 'Mr.
Oliverking G' we are getting same error
Any idea, plse, would be gretaly apprciated.

Hi,
You need to prefix the value with a text string which indicates what kind of value you are returning.
E.g. if you are returning a user ID, prefix the value with 'user_id:'; if you are returning a person ID, then prefix it with 'person_id:'
There is an article on my blog about creating a dynamic approval group in AME as part 5 in the series on AME: http://www.workflowfaq.com/ame-part-five-defining-a-dynamic-approval-group

2 - way routing process in an ESB

Hi !
I want a 2-way routing process in an ESB .
My requirement is there is two table say Emp and Company .
I will select some data from Emp and after some transformation I will insert those to data into Company table .
When I am using poll then it is working fine but when I am trying to use select and insert query then router only accept select wsdl not the insert wsdl .
Help me regarding this

Hi,
I am afraid that there is no way to have two routing nodes in one flow. But you can use service call to get same job done.

6513 ACL List ION Routing Process

Hello everyone I have a question about ION Routing Process that seems to show up on the 6513 cisco switch.
Ok question, when I do a show access-list Test-ACL
It will show me Test-ACL list then right after that with ION Routing Process the next line starts with all of the ACL lists that are on the device.
We have two 6513 and they both do this but when i check out two 6509 they dont do this.
Also check on 3750e too dont do this
Can anyone explain this to me ?

Craig
What you are asking for can be done but it will be a bit tedious. You describe having 20 entries in the topology table and you want to control which one gets placed into the routing table. To do that you can either make the composite metric of the one entry more attractive or you can make the composite metric of the other 19 less attractive.
When you use an offset list you add to the metric of an entry. It will not make any entry be more attractive but it can make other entries less attractive. So you could configure an offset list identifying the route in question and apply some offset (100 should work for example). Then you would need to apply this offset to the 19 neighbors who are advertising the route.

Routing process

Hi,
While I am debuging ICMP traffic originated from a router ( Debug ip packet details) it is showing packets routed via FIB and reply is showing as routed via RIB .is it means ICMP packet originating from the router is CEF switched ? if it does then whether the CEF switched packet will show in the debug output ?.Documents showing that only process switched packet can be debugged .
one more doubt regarding the routing process
documents stating that the routing process is actually consist of three processes 1.routing 2.switching 3.encapsulation
so regardless of every switching methods (Process ,Fast or CEF ) router is doing routing table lookup in the first process (Routing)

Two route-processes for same vrf on a PE

Hi
Is it possible to have two route processes, for example eigrp and ospf, for the same vrf on a PE router.
The situation would be, two customer sites on one PE, one site is running EIGRP and the other one OSPF
Thanks for your replies
michael

You should be able to use any combination of supported IGP (ospf, eigrp, rip, static) or BGP between the different the PE and the different CEs belonging to the same VRF.
Hope this helps,

Approval preview process controlled workflow

Hi,
We are using process controlled workflow (N step) for the shopping cart workflows.
While sending the reminder mails to the approvers, we would like to include the approval preview in the email.
In application controlled workflows we could use FM BBP_WFL_DIN_APPR_CONTAINER_GET to get the approval preview details.
Is there a similar function module to pick the approvers/approval status/step name etc for the process controlled workflows so that we can simulate the approval preview?
Thanks

Use class /SAPSRM/CL_WF_APV_FACADE. This is used by standard SAP WF Analysis.
Methods - RETRIEVE_PROCESS_HISTORY, GET_CURRENT_PROCESS_STATE, CREATE_PROCESS_FORECAST.
To analyze more, check the program /SAPSRM/WF_CFG_ANALYSIS_002. Check lines 209...216 (These Lines pull Previous Approved Steps, Current Process Step & Gets the approval forecast). However the REJECTED Items (Accept Decision) work little different (which is not captured by this report).
To Identify the current approval process awaiting decision by the requester of the cart, use method GET_CURRENT_PROCESS_STATE, return parameter structure /SAPSRM/S_WF_PROCESS-PROCESS_LEVEL_LIST-DECISIONSET_LIST-ITEM_STATUS_LIST gets you the current status of the item (ACCEPTED, REJECTED, OPEN, INQUIRED). If ITEM_STATUS_LIST-ITEM_STATUS EQ 'REJECTED', then the WF is waiting for acceptance/resubmission from the requester.
To your specific need, pass DOCUMENT_GUID to the class /SAPSRM/CL_WF_APV_FACADE=>GET_CURRENT_PROCESS_STATE get the return parameter /SAPSRM/S_WF_PROCESS. It will give you PROCESS_LEVEL_LIST. Then loop through DECISIONSET_LIST. It contains Table Types of AGENTS_LIST, ITEM_STATUS_LIST, WORKITEM_LIST. At /SAPSRM/S_WF_PROCESS level, you can get all the details of the current process level details

Inconstancy in Approval Workflow- Process Controlled Workflow

Hello Experts,
We are in SRM 7.0 classic scenario using process controlled workflow and facing an issue as described below:-
During the approval workflow, we are observing that in
Case 1: When approver3 is forwarding the work item to approver10, the approver10 in not getting the work item in his Inbox. However, when we see the log detail in SWI6 the status is shown as u201CREADYu201D
Case 2: We created a shopping cart with identical details as in Case 1 and followed the same approval process i.e.Approver3 forwarding the work item to approver10, however in this case approver10 is getting the work item in his Inbox and when we see the log details in SWI6 the status is shown as u201CCOMPLETED"
We tried this scenario for 10 times and we found that in 2 cases the approval status is showing as u201CREADYu201D while in other 7 cases the approval workflow got completed.
Can you all experts please help us understand why this is happening and how can be find the root cause i.e why Case 1 is in u201CREADYu201D status for last 2 days.
We seek your help in understandingroot cause so that we can eliminate any inconsistency in future.
Any pointers to resolve this issue will be highly appreciated.
Thank you in advance.

Journal shows Approval "In Process" even after Approvers approves it

Dear All,
The Approver gets a notification to approve a Journal Batch. He opens the notification and approves by clicking on the Approve button on the notification page and the page closes. But when we go and check the Journal details in the GL apps screen, the Approval status still says 'In Process'. Also the SYSADMIN gets a notification saying "No approver for employee SGL99 was found to approve XX HLA 8-1 2 only 9953 01-AUG-2006 09:04:12. Please correct the error and respond to this message."
Where is the process stuck? What's wrong?
Thank you for your help in advance.
Harish Amble.

What notification are we talking about? Is it the self-service notification accessed through worklist or e-mail notification that available from the user's e-mail Inbox?
Self-service notification
The notification is rendered by the Application Server over HTTP and the user's response is submitted back to Oracle Workflow using HTTP request immediately upon clicking on the Approve button. When the notification page returns after Approve button is clicked without errors, it means that the notification is responded to successfully.
E-mail notification
The e-mail notification is detached from the Oracle Workflow instance in the sense that when the response is submitted as an e-mail, unless and until the e-mail reaches the Notification Mailer's inbox and the mailer has successfully processed it, the notification response is not really applied. You need to make sure that the mailer's Inbound and Outbound processing is enabled and that the mailer is able to process e-mail responses successfully.
For both the cases above, you might want to go the Status Monitor/Process Monitor/Find Processes and search for that instance of Journal Workflow and view the diagram. You should be able to see the notification activity and the current response for that notification activity. If the notification is still in NOTIFIED status, that means the response is not yet applied.
If you want to troubleshoot the notification mailer, please search in Metalink for notes on Troubleshooting Java Notification Mailer. This helps for 11.5.9 or after.
Hope this helps.
