RFQ Workflow: Agent assignment

Dear All,
We are working on the Release RFQ workflow.
Per my understanding, the IMG settings determine the users/OUs who should be receiving mails
to release the RFQ. This multilevel approval is in place.
Now, I have created an RFQ, this triggered the workflow, but there is an error in the release activity.
The error says "Purchase reqn number is not found".
Do we need to explicitly mention the release rule 20000030 in the agent assignment section
of the workflow? Why does the error abt purchase reqn appear?
Does it look if the RFQ is created w.r.t Purchase reqn?
As this is both MM/workflow related doubt, Iam posting it in both the forums
Please help me.
Thanks,
nsp.

Thanks for your response.
These steps are already taken care of.
Now, what I have done is, I have created an RFQ  with reference to a purchase requisition. In SWEL, I see workflow WS20000080 triggered. But I get an error saying "Element purchase order is not available in the container. Error in resolution of rule 'AC20000030' for step.  Agent determination failed"
Can you advise me? Why does it look for purchase order ?
Thanks,

  • Workflow agent assignment in Production system

    Hello Sap Gurus,
      Is there a way to maintain harcoded agents(not a general task..but putting in a user's name) on the tasks in the SAP production system without going to Change mode.
    I know we can do it for the Workflow templates in Dispaly mode but for the tasks, it wouldn't let us do without being in Change mode.
    Any suggestions is appreciated
    Thanks

    Hi Rachana,
    The agent assignment of a task is a PD infotype and therefore the question is do you have the authorisation do maintain in production?
    From what you have described, the short answer appears to be no.  But a longer answer is that, with sufficient access, you can open a workitem in change mode and forward to a new agent after using the Replace Manually option.
    Another option would be to go in throught the diagnosis tolls (SWUD) and use the option test environment.  You will see the steps of your workflow at the bottom of the page.  If there is a red football shaped object - this is agent assignment - you can click to maintain the assignments.
    A better question is why maintain by user ID here as it is a pain to maintain.

  • FI Payment Release Workflow Agent assignment and SPRO settings.

    Hi Experts,
                     I am working on Payment release workflow for 2 stages. So for this i have activated the main workflow WS00400012 and for First level release WS00400011 and for second level release WS00400021.
    Now where should i assign the agent for First level release and second level release ? and what setting should i do in SPRO as FI settings.
    Any of you suggestions will be of great help me to resolve this issue.
    Regards,
    Hari

    Hi,
    Thank you for your reply.Should i mention the main workflow number in SPRO or
    just the subworkflows alone ?.
    Assign main workflow number
    Can i assign users directly in workflow itself insteas of assigning position in SPRO.
    Don't assign users inside the workflow, if the user id you want to change then again you have to change the workflow.

  • RFQ workflow

    Dear Experts,
    I am using std workflow WS20000080 for RFQ. I have used rule 20000030 for agent assignment. Also I have made my task as general for all activity steps. But although i have made all settings in workflow side when i test it i am getting error in workflow log as "Element purchase order is not available in the container. Error in resolution of rule 'AC20000030' for step. Agent determination failed". I found a similar thread in forum that i given below. but there is no solution given for that thread.
    [RFQ Workflow: Agent assignment]

    Kind Regards,

    Hello,
    " I just executed the whole process after 1 day. Surprisingly its working now."
    That sounds like SWU_OBUF. Are you certain you did that?

  • Workflow - Dynamic agent assignment

    Hello!
    I am doing Workflow development. I have a question about Workflow Agent Assignment.
    I want to assign multiple agents ( 1 or 2 or more agents and It's not static. Each agents have task that processing independent. and next task is started after end of all multiple tasks.).
    But I can't dynamic assignment('Adhoc agent assignment' is not that.)
    Can you help me?(Is this possible?)
    Best Regards,
    Juhyun

    Hi
    If I have understood you correctly, you have a multiline container element with a number of agents (type wfsyst-agent) - and now you would like to send a workitem to each agent - and not just one workitem to all of your agent.
    To achieve this you need to define the task (or sub workflow) as a multiline element. T
    his is done in task implementation in the workflow builder. Switch to the tab <b>Other</b>, in here you add your multiline container element containing.
    When you now go back to agent assignment, you will find two container elements for your multiline element, use the one with [&_WF_PARFOREACH_INDEX&].
    The result will be that exactly one workitem is created for each entry in your multiline container element.

  • WorfFlow Agent Assignment at Task Level...

    Hi,
    I have problem in Workflow agent assignment...
    In agent assignment at Task (MM Invoices Parked/Posted) level, I have assigned a position(Account Payable)to AC Role...
    Under this position, there are 8 users....
    In the Workflow process,At this task level the work item is going to only one person inbox not all these 8 users...
    Can you please advise me, where I was wrong...
    Warm Regards,
    Thirupathi....

    Hi Thirupathi,
    There are a couple of things you can try:
    - Agent assignment gets buffered in HR, normally refreshed at midnight. Use txn SWU_OBUF to refresh them manually.
    - Are all agents also possible agents of the task or is the task defined as a general task?
    - (just adding the obvious) make sure your task is in status READY, else it would have been reserved by someone.
    Cheers

  • Held PO triggering workflow and agent assignment to myself

    Hi experts,
    Is there a way where I can prevent held documents from triggering my workflow?
    How can I achieve the following 2 scenarios for agent assignment:
    1) Create PO and workitem route back to myself
    2) Release PO and workitem route back to myself

    Lester,
    If you are a User01, then You started the process like if you are creating the PO, then the workflow is getting triggered. So now you are the initiator of the process, and in WF_inititor will be hold your user name user01.
    Thanks,

         Menu options -- > additional data-->agent assignment --> maintain --> select your workflow (this is where you are missing)
         click on "atttributes' buttone..

    2. In your workflow some of the elements are mandatory,  pass the required value into that element.

  • Agent Assignment in Workflow

    If anyone had worked on customizing the WF for Changed Sub profile, WS1200124, please tell me how to configure the role for the standard task: 1200191, Abbreviation: PDVDispProfi .
    I need to use this task for two purposes, one to show to the owner of the profile and second to the manager of the owner of the profile.
    I tried giving the rules 01200025 for Employee and 01200024 for the manager in agent assignment for the tasks, but the workflow hangs at these tasks.
    If I hardcode the agent to some user, it works fine.
    Any suggestion on what would have gone wrong?
    Is something to be activated at the rule level?
    Thanks in Advance.

    Hi Mikko,
    I work on ECC5 system.
    Your answer solves half of my issue.
    I assign an Expression with &EMPLOYEE& as the agent to task and this sends the mail to the employee.
    the Work Item Subject says "Your Dev. Profile has been change".
    Now, I also need to send the same mail to the supervisor of the employee.
    Here, The workitem text should be "Dev. Profile has been changed for the Employee<b> XYZ</b>".
    So, I cloned the task TS01200191 to TS900001,
    changed the text accordingly and
    created a container element "PERSON"
    inserted this element as a variable in the text.
    I need to pass this PERSON to the task in the binding from workflow.
    This PERSON should be created in the workflow container and filled.
    Please confirm if this procedure works or if there is a better one.
    Thanks.
