RFx Response Approved / Rejected notification

Hello SRM Experts,
We are currently experiencing some complications with our e-mail notification for approved/rejected RFxs, some are unable to receive the e-mail. We have checked the possible configuration for this like transaction SU01 etc., we might missing something.. Any inputs?
Thank you!

Hi Ranjan,
Thank you for the quick reply.
Yes we have already checked tcode SOST, but the mail didn't reach SOST . It's weird because it happens only on selective users...
Thank you!

Once RFX response approved the other responses should delete

Hi All,
We have one requirement, Using SRM 7, RFX is sent to 4 bidders, all of them sent the responses, now Buyer has decided to go one of the Bid, once the RFX response is approved all the other responses should get rejected and the notification should sent to them.
Did any one already using this scenrio please help how to proceed.
Regards,

Hi,
Ricardo mentioned correctly.
I've tested this scenario, you need to accept which ever you want and reject remaining bids.
Other wise for the remaining bidders status will be shown as submitted not rejected.

PO change version Approval/Rejection notification to requester

Dear SRM Gurus,
We are in stand alone scenarion of SRM 7.0 using process controlled WF.
We have received an request to send out notification on approval / rejection of and PO change version.
The PO's are created automaticaly from approved SC's and only the PO change triggers the approval WF.
I've already checked the IMG: SRM server > cross application > Event and event schema for alert management.
1. Define events: BUS2201 Purchase order is present with APPROVAL_PROCESS_DOC_APPROVED and APPROVAL_PROCESS_DOC_REJECTED
2. Define event schema for obj. type BUS2201 event schema PO the APPROVAL_PROCESS_DOC_APPROVED and APPROVAL_PROCESS_DOC_REJECTED with subcategory event APPROVAL_RESULT_NOTIFIC_NEW are set to event category NOTIFIC Message.
3. Define Recipient of notifications: PM Approve change version of purchase order - User Role CR contact person the options rejection and approval of application object are selected.
The users I'am using to test are the same as those who receive notifications for SC rejection/approval so I guess it's not connected to SU01 or PPOMA settings.
Still I don't see notification sent via SOST.
Any ides what I could check next please?
Thanks in advance for you help.
Michal

Hello Michal,
did you give the event schema created to corresponding transaction type ?
If you are expecting to receive notification during approval workflow, check OSS note [1395980 - No notifications of approval sent during approval process|https://websmp101.sap-ag.de/~form/handler?_APP=01100107900000000342&_EVENT=REDIR&_NNUM=1395980&_NLANG=E]
For PO, you can also check OSS note [1572957 - PO change version reject notification not sent|https://websmp101.sap-ag.de/~form/handler?_APP=01100107900000000342&_EVENT=REDIR&_NNUM=1572957&_NLANG=E]

POR (Purchase Order Response): Approve/Reject buttons not functioning

Hi folks,
In SRM 5.0 extended classic scenario, a POR is sent to EBP from SUS. The POR is outside tolerances so it triggers workflow -WS14500019. When a user goes into their Approval Inbox they have the option to Approve or Reject the POR using the Approve/Reject icons.
When a user clicks on either the Approve or Reject icon, a message appears at the bottom of the screen:
"Work Item is been Processed, Please Wait"
When this message disappears the work item is not processed and remains in the Approver's inbox unprocessed.
If anybody has any suggestions it would be greatly appreciated.
Regards,
Pat

Hello Nagarajan,
Thanks for the response. I have realised that the Approve/Reject buttons should not be used with PORs. I am still a little unsure as to how it is supposed to work though. Take the scenario below:
A buyer orders a quantity of 10
The vendor responds with a quantity of 7 which is outside the tolerances and goes to approval
If the buyer does not accept the response but wants to request 10 again what should they do?
1) If they copy the POR to their PO a changed PO is sent to the Vendor with a quantity of 7.
2) If they copy the PO to the POR but untick the header and item levels in the POR, the SUS PO remains in a status of Confirmed so the vendor will ship the goods.
Which options above is most suitable when the Buyer wants to request the 10 again? Option 2 and then to manually change the PO to a quantity of 10?
Regards
Pat

How do we incorpoarte 'Approval/Reject' notifictaion in BPEL?

Like in Oracle Workflows, how do I incorporate approval/reject notifications?
Using BPEL process, I am trying to send an email notification to the approver.
The email should have 2 buttons, 'Approve' and 'Reject'. Based on the approvers selection,
the BPEL process should choose the conditional flow.
Here my question is, how do I incorporate the email with these 2 buttons.
And how do I incorporate the conditional flow?
In Oracle workflow this can be easily achieved.
Please point me to the related documents/procedures.
Thanks,
Bala.

Hi Sandra,
For your code logic, I1129 with inactive X should be included to get the list of SC which are in awaiting approval or may be approved but without follow on doc.
But could you check if you get any message in RZ20 after the follow on doc is created and it becomes inactive ?
may be you can check the SAP note: 1499352 - SRM Transfer: Redesign, bug fixes

After approver reject RFx response(QUOT), is that possible tho open back?

Hi Gurus,
We are now implementing SRM 7 EHp 1 and with workflow in RFx creation and evaluation. During RFx evaluation, once the approval reject the quotation and the status will turn into REJECTED. Is there anyway to open back the quotation in order leave it as rejected.
There is few scenario we facing at the moment.
1. 5 lines item. Bidder A been partial award 3 items and Bidder B partial award 2 item. Both quotation route to approval in awaiting approver status. If approval reject bidder A quotation and put a remark to purchaser that bidder B should get the full award (5 items). Is that possible to handle by the system?
2. 5 lines item. Bidder A been partial award 3 items and Bidder B partial award 2 item. Both quotation route to approval in awaiting approver status. The approval reject bidder A and accept bidder B. Could system handle the 3 items back to the sourcing cockpit?
Best regards,
Wind

Hello Wind,
Kindly refer to the thread Re: Quotation in Release Rejected Status, how does the purchaser can review it? , to solve your issue here.
As per the standard functionality delivered with SRM 701, purchaser user should be allowed to view the details for the Rejected RFx response and he also he will be provided with the Undo Reject option to re-submit the response for approval to the purchasing manager.
Hope this helps you.
Best Regards,
Rahul

Why I am not able to approve/reject my workflow notification from email?

For R12 AP Invoice Approval Workflow, I have done Approver group set ups in AME. In HR People form, set my email id for that person. In FND USER from, used that person as the employee to have the email id populated for the user and saved the record.
When I am creating an invoice and initiating workflow, I am getting a notification in my mailbox but cannot approve or reject from the mailbox. I may hit the Approve link but it is not doing anything. In order to approve/reject the notification, I have to log in as that person in Oracle Apps and do it from there.
Is there anything I am missing? I have a requirement that the approver only approve / reject from their mailbox and they do not log in to Oracle Apps to see their notifications. What to do to make them enable approving from mailbox only?
I am having a steep deadline and will very much appreciate your responses.
Thanks.

When you try to approve/reject or do any operation on the workflow using email the issue is the you do not have the responsibility/user values set.
You need to login to Oracle Apps and select the correct resp in order to take action on workflow.
Please check if you are table to take action from oracle apps that explains it. there are a couple of metalink notes too.
You may apply appropriate patch and then this will work.
If it is an SSHR WF you need to be minimum on ATG ROLLUP 7

ARQ: How to configure Role Approve/Reject Email Notifications???

Hi,
I would like to achieve below for my business scenario with below MSMP stage configurations:
MSMS Stages Configurations:
MANAGER --> Can act on both request and line items level
Role Owner--> Can ONLY act on line items
Requirement
In best case, a Manager approves all the line items in an Access Request. Then an email notification mail for "NEW WORK ITEM" would be sent to Role Owner(s) at next stage. This is achieved.
Now at Role Owner Stage, below 3 cases are possible:
1. All Role Owners can approve the line items
2. All Role Owners can reject the line items
3. Some of the Role Owners approve and Some of them reject line items
In all the above cases, a Role Owner ALWAYS click on "SUBMIT" button (as he is not authorized to reject a request as a whole) and this action is considered to be as "APPROVED" and eventually, "APPROVED" event is triggered.
This looks good in case numbers: 1 & 3. Meaning, even a single role is approved, request can be considered as approved and the request details can be sent to business user.
However, I am facing a problem when ALL the line items are rejected by ALL the Role Owners!
This will surely close the request. However, the email notification that will be sent to user in this case will be of "APPROVED" though the request is rejected in a sense (because all the roles are rejected)!
Can anybody please he understand this and design proper solution?
Regards,
Faisal

Hi Faisal,
We are on GRC SP13.
Please do below settings to make role approval/rejection comments mandatory.
2040 - Set this parameter value as YES
In MSMP - Role Owner - Stage settings - Please maintain these settings
I have come across the same scenario as yours. Below is my observation.
When all role owners rejects all roles by REJECTING roles at LINEITEM level, request instead of getting closed at ROLE OWNER stage, it is going to next stage and getting closed there. I assume this is standard behaviour
Let's see if we can get experts advise on this.

Madhu.

Sales Order (Returns) for Approval / Reject

Hi,
I have a Sales Order of Credit Only Order type.
Existing Custom Workflow
When the Customer Service creates Sales Order of Order Type Credit Only, it will got to AR dept for Approval/Reject.
If the AR dept rejects, then a Notification will flow to Customer Service with Rejection comments.
Required Logic
Once Customer Updates and saves Sales Order, Customer Service should have an option to send SO back to Approval to AR dept.
Could any one give me the logic.
Thanks

Thanks for your quick response Ajay.
I am aware that I can move it to unrestricted stock but I would lose my link to the RMA sales order. Correct?
We currently are not using split valuation.
Any other suggestions?

Approve/Reject from Outlook ?

Hi,
I got the requirement that Send a mail to the outlook. up to this is fine. But the user wants to take decision from Outlook itself?
How can we maintain Approve & Reject in Outlook. How the response will come back & Effect on the BO. Please explain?

Akash,
There are other ways to do it but the best way is to use Extended Notifications. If your workflow task is a User Decision (it should be) then you can make the approve/reject links show in Outlook as follows: call SWNADMIN, go to Subscriptions, select the relevant subscription, go to the Message tab, near the bottom is "Show User Decision As". Set that to "HTTP Link", save it and you should be done.
Hope that helps!

WorkFlow Reject Notification

Hi ,
I have a requirement like the workflow should be Approved when all the list of people in the Approval list. If any one rejects then it should result in Rejected and notification should be deleted from the rest of the people , who are not responded.
For ex:
4 people in the approval list. Workflow will check all 4 are approved are or not. For suppose one person rejected then approval requested notification should get deleted from the remaining 2 people.
Now.. we are good with the Approva process but when the 2nd person rejected it is not deleting from the rest of 2 people.
Can anyone tell me how to acheive this
Thanks in Advance

Hi,
Build a role (either use a responsibility with the people in it, or use an adhoc role) and send the notification to the role without ticking the expand roles box.
Everyone in the role will see the notification, and as soon as one of them responds, it disappears from everyone's list.
HTH,
Matt

Configuration of WF approval email notification

We are on 11.5.10.2 and I have a workflow configuration question. When an approval notification is routed to a manager and he or she views it in their worklist, the response line that has the Approve, Reject, or Request More Information buttions appears at BOTH the top and bottom of the page. But when the manager views it in their email box, the links to Approve, Reject, etc appear only at the bottom of the email. Is there a way to configure the emails so that the response links appear at the top of the page in addition (or instead of) to the bottom of the page, the same as the worklist page? Managers are finding that when viewing/approving via PDAs, part of the notification is being truncated, as is the case with OTL timecard approvals.

Hi,
Please see if this thread helps.
