Reserve Encumbrance when approving PO

When I try to encumbrance and there is no funds on specific combination I got an error message , but PO continue to approve.
The PO is not encumbrances and after trying to approve it's stopping in status Preapprove.
I am working with 11.5.10.
But in 11.5.9 It's stopping the user and you can not continue to approve if you try to reserve and failed on budgetery control.
How can I stop the user continue the PO to be approved if there is no funds?
Thanks,
Kobi

hi,
you can try setting the budgetary control in GL to absolute instead of advisory

Custom SRM workflow: task forwarded to last change author when approving.

Hi experts.
We encountered this strange behaviour when approving a Purchase Order, previously rejected.
More precisely: the PO is created by user A, user B rejects it, user C approves it, then the same workitem sent to C is forwarded to B instead of being routed to user D through the flow. I do not want this to happen.
Is there a way I can modify/customize this?
Many thanks.

Short answer: Yes.
Longer answer: only you know which workflow template you are using. Is it a standard SAP template? If so, which one? Is it your own custom workflow? If so, you have to explain it if we are going to be able to provide any help.
I won't be surprised if your response is that you are using the standard workflow that you customize with release procedures. But I can't know that, so please (everyone) be specific and informative when you ask questions. The readers here may all have some workflow knowledge, but most of us are not very good at reading other people's minds.
PS: Version information can also be quite significant. In some cases there are big differences between e.g. R/3 4.6C and ECC 6.0.
If you have used the release procedure customizing it could be your customizing that causes the behaviour you have observed. Please give some more information about your current setup.

Comments when approving User Registration

Hi,
When approving a registration request for a new user from CRM HTML administrator, there is a Comments to User box in the last step, where Approval/Rejection text can be entered.
There is also a tip provided below the text box :
"The comments you enter will be seen by all other approvers, and will also be sent to the requester as the reason for the approval/rejection".
But these comments do not come in notification to requester.
Where are these comments used?
Regards,
Mohammed

hi,
when comments are entered in that box, those comments are sent to the isupport user being approved. the isupport user sees those comments in the body of the email that says that his request for an account has been approved.

When approving a PO through SRM inbox, the 'Back to Approval' link ismissin

When approving a PO through SRM inbox, the 'Back to Approval' link ismissing

The issue that you have reported is not a bug, but a strandard. Once the
application is integrated to the Portal, the navigation between screens/
transaction is handled differently and should not be compared to ITS.
In EP, you will have to use the Portal's 'Back' button to navigate back.
Please refer to note # 933450 as the correction is the same for this
issue also.
The link has been removed because navigation in EP is handled
differently as compared to ITS. In EP you use the EP's navigation and
not ITS links like ('Back to Sourcing') or ('Return to Change Version')

Making comments mandatory for only some roles when approving CUP requests.

Does anyone know if there is a way to make Comments required in CUP requests when approving a request for just certain roles? We don't want comments to always be required, just if you are approving a request for Role XXX for example.
I tried using the Comments Mandatory setting that is available on the Role Details screen (along with the associated flags on the Roles/Role Selection screen), but this only seems to require a 'request reason' for the role when the request is being built. It doesn't require comments when the request is being approved. (There also appears to be a bug with this because this request reason doesn't show up anywhere in the request after it is built.)
I know you can set the Comments Mandatory on for the workflow stage, but then you have to enter a comment for every request, regardless of the roles. We are wanting them to required only for a few specific roles.
We are on GRC 5.3 11.2.
Thanks.

Hi Bob,
It is not possible to enable the comment option only for few roles. Either it can be on for all, or off.

Raghu

Want to pop-up a msg when approver tries to approve a requisition

Hi All,
We have a requirement to pop-up a message when approver tries to approve a zero value requisition.

Sounds like a great question for the OA Framework Forum

Error when Approving Purchase order

Dear all,
we are using oracle applications version 12.0.4, I am facing an issue when a Purchase order is approved , the approver is getting a notification
" Unable to reserve funds" and purchase order is going to pre-approved status. I tried to check funds from purchase order form but Its showing me a message
"The header currently does not have distributions eligible for this action"
Edited by: user13295191 on 02-Nov-2011 05:12

A quick hack would be to try this functionality from the old form (instead of the OA page) just to know the error.
Thanks,
Vinod

Error when approving the request in OIM 11g R2

I have a catalog item for iPlanet User resource setup to go for beneficiary manager approval. On the approval window, when the manager approves the request, OIM tries to forward to the url /identity/face which throws an generic error saying "identity" page doesnt exist because it doesn't get resolved as hostname.
I have another OIM instance where the popup window just disappears when the approval button is clicked. I'm not sure what the default behavior is. In R1, it used to get a OIM alert box notifying that the request was approved/rejected.
I'm getting these errors in the logs when I approve/reject
The parent-organization-chain is empty for the organization list

How to change the requested delivery date when approval has been done

Hi
We use SRM5.0 and we want to implement SC, now we want to make it possible to change the delivery date in the shopping cart when we approve.
This is needed if we request today but the approver didn't approve same day, therefore the requested day has to move the same number of days, that the approver has spend. Or else the deliver date will not be correct.
Do any of you know how to do this??
Best regards
Jakob

Hi Jakob,
What scenario do you use? Classic, Extended Classic, Standalone?
So depending on your scenario you can have differente types of follow-on documents (PR/PO only in ERP in case of Classic, or PO in SRMand ERP in case of Extended Classic).
Do you use Sourcing Cockpit?
I've tested this scenario in SRM 7.0 Standalone and if the follow-on document (in my case, a PO) is not "Ordered" yet then I can change the SC. But if it is already "Ordered", I can't change the SC. This is standard behavior.
You could use Sourcing Cocking to solve this issue, in this you don't use it yet.
Best regards,
Christian Zeuch

Restrict editing/deleting item when approval workflow is in progress

I have a list for contributors to submit documents and activate an approval workflow. The requirement is to restrict all users from editing and deleting the document once the workflow is activated. After the workflow is completed, if the document
is approved, all users also should not be able to edit/delete the item; if the document is rejected, users should regain the permission to edit/delete the item.
I had no problem with restricting edit/delete permission after the document is approved by adding a Declare Record action after the content approval status is set to approved in SPD.
However, the workflow was not able to complete when I added a Declare Record action in the "When the Task Process Starts" step and an Undeclare Record action in the very beginning of the "When the task process completes" step to restrict users from editing/deleting
the item when the workflow is in progress.
After I activated the workflow and approved the item, the Workflow status shows Approved but the Approval status still shows Pending. In addition, the "Approval Workflow Task is complete" (shown in the following image) is missing in the workflow history,
which seems to me that the workflow task is never completed.
Please advise me the proper way to restrict users from editing/deleting the document while the workflow is in progress. Thank you.

then use SPD to customize the task process to lock them out upon starting and give them rights again upon rejection.

Hi
How was this resolved in the end. I to want to disable editing of document whilst workflow in progress. In SPD how is this achieved?
Thanks

Cusomize the Leave Approve view when approve from UWL

Hi,
The user is approving the leave from the UWL.
when they click on the work item then in the Pop Up window the java application starts.
Now we want to hide the Duration field from the last confirmation field.
I tried to hide these fields from the Leave Request Approval iView, but it did not help.
Kindly provide your inputs
_vishal

Hi Vishal,
I have worked on this requirement before. What you need to do is copy the standard iview of the LeaveRequestApprover application into your customer space. Then hide the buttons in this iview through webdynpro personalisation.
After that you have to download the xml file which gets called for the LeaveRequestApprover application (you can find this by switching on the UWL Support Information) and change the action to 'iviewlauncher' and in the 'property' provide the pcd location of the iview in the customer space.Then re-register the UWL.
Hence when you will click on the Leave Request Workitem from the UWL, this custom iview (already personalised by you) will be launched and not the webdynpro application.
Please see the required details for changing UWL xml code for ivew launcher in SAP Help Library.
Thanks and Regards,
Pinki

Approval messages not coming back when approving by mail

Hello,
We are on SRM 4.0
Approval messages are sent from SRM to different approvers by mail. This works fine.
But when the person approves by mail this doesn't work.
In transaction sost messages are still with 'grey' status and in transaction scot messages are all in status 'in transit'.
This happens only in our Production environment.
Has anyone suggestions?
Thanks,
Laurent.

Further to my previous reply , please also check the following
>
In transit
Number of send orders that are currently in process
outside of the SAP system, that is, the messages have
been transferred to the external nodes by the SAPconnect
send process but neither a positive nor a negative status

check the following in your system

have you set the value to 'SAP connect does not expect confirm.for

Parked journal entry when approve and post it - posts to other accounts...

Help!!!!
We have a parked Journal Entry! When we open it to approve and post - sometime it changes the G/L account and makes an entry to some other account.
How can that be?
It happened couple times!

The user must have changed erronously.
Otherwise, if we are posting to the same account, the parking document should not be changed.
When there are no substituions in the system, I do not think any other possibility to happen this.
You can ask the user again to park to the same account and try to post again to double check whether it is being posted to other account or not. If it is really posting to different account, then there is an issue to be looked into.
Regards,
Ravi
