SAP SRM - Find workflows in use

Hi,
Just wondering what the easiest way is to find out what workflows are being used in SRM 5.
I know the approval one is being used as i can find it in the customising but unsure how to find out what
standard ones might be getting used.
I've tried SWDM - that's giving me loads of active workflows that i know aren't all used
SWDD - just lists all the workflows in SRM
Event linkage - just turned on for the approval worklow
I've been using SWI6 and searching workflows by object , is there a better way?
Could also search table swwihead - but this also seems like a bad way
Cheers,
Tony

Hi Tony,
Go to Transaction SWU0 ( Event simulation Transaction).
Fill the Business object number : like BUS2121, BUS2201 etc.
Fill the Event : saved ( Shopping cart created ) Changed ( Shopping cart changed ) Use the F4 to choose the appropriate event.
Execute after filling the above data.
For the Business Object you have chosen system will display all the possible workflow that are currently active in your system.
Similarly change the business Object number and try for other business objects as well.

Suresh

SAP SRM PORTAL WORKFLOW

Hello All.
i have a bidder approval workflow. I have to call a function module that will create an LDAP account. So I'am using an activity step in the standard WF, and calling this function module (attached to a BO method--delegation). The FM, wants some parameter which is not there in BO, but this data is there in Portal.
How can i bring the data from portal (while bidder is created), to the BO. How can i get the field names of the portal .

Hi,
The workflow function in MDM is different architecture from SAP Business Workflow.
Modeling workflow tool is Visio in MDM.
You should not download the MDM components from NetWeaver MDM. You should download it from SRM-MDM Catalog.

Approver not determined process controlled workflow in SAP SRM 7.0

Hello all,
I have setup process controlled workflow in SAP SRM 7.0 EHP3 for shopping cart approval.
I have 4 approval levels.
I have used item-based Decision for entire document because for some items i want system approval.
In implementation of BADI /SAPSRM/BD_WF_RESP_RESOLVER, in the method /SAPSRM/IF_EX_WF_RESP_RESOLVER~GET_AREA_TO_ITEM_MAP, i am skipping the items for which i want system approval.
Also in method /SAPSRM/IF_EX_WF_RESP_RESOLVER~GET_APPROVERS_BY_AREA_GUID of BADI implementation class, i am keeping the approver table empty for the step which i want system approval.
For example i have 1 item in shopping cart and for 1st step, based on some accouting criteria, i want system approval for 1st level and the workitem should go directly to 2 approval step when shopping cart is ordered. This is not happening.
But if i have multiple items, and one item should have system approval based on some criteria and the 1st approval level should be system approval and other item should go to the 1st approver. This is happening and showing 'system' approver for item1 and 'appr_xyz' for item 2.
For shopping cart having only 1 item, If i approve the shopping cart in this state only, it doesn't go to any approver and is not usable.
am i missing anything in BADI /SAPSRM/BD_WF_RESP_RESOLVER??
Please let me know.

Yayati Ekbote

Hi Adrian,
Yes it is possible to display custom workflows in the Universal Worklist, However, I am not sure what you are trying to do with a routing table. If the workitems are of type decision, you can use UserDecisionHandler (action handler) configured in the XML file to use the Approve/Reject functionality - we are talking about webflow connector here correct? R/3 connector?

SAP SRM Workflow Options: Winshuttle or ABAP WebDynpro

We are implementing SRM. Our considerations for SAP Workflow are Winshuttle with an MS Sharepoint Site,or,ABAP WebDynpro. Does anyone have any experiences or suggestions that they could share that could help us to make a desicion. Or, another method that is cost efficient and easily supportable?
Thank-You.

Hi Tom,
Workflow component is in built in SRM. You donu2019t need any external component for it.
There are 2 types of workflow supported by SAP SRM.
1. Application Controlled Workflow
2. Process Controlled Workflow (BRF)
You can use BRF if you are implementing SRM 5.0 & above.
I think you should explore more on SRM workflows; it will certainly give you insight on workflow implementation.

Query on components to be used for SAP SRM Installation

We have a requirement for SRM Server.. I need some help on what installation objects should I download. This is on AIX and DB2
for "EHP1 FOR SAP SRM 7.0 -> based on SAP NetWeaver 7.02"
I'm sure that I'll need :
1) Installation Master
2) Export (SAP SRM 7.0 EHP1 Installation Export 1-3 of 3) 51038765_1
I have queries on this:
3) For Java stack, the component available is BS7i2010 Java Components 1x4 of 4
I have NW 7.3 based EP system. Can that be used for Java or Do I need to install another stand alone Java ?
If it can be used:
- Will it not create problems b'coz portal is on 7.3 and SRM is based on 7.02
- are there any SRM Java specific components in this installation object or is it a plain NW 7.02 Java stack ?
4) What is SAP SRM 7.0 EHP1 Components in terms of functionality given?
5) We need MDM Server:.
For MDM Server: Where do I need to download MDM Server from ? I am not sure If we have license under our S-user.. Can you give me the path where download starts ?
For MDM Catalog :what is the difference in
- SAP Application Components"> SAP SRM"--> SAP SRM ENHANCE PACKAGE" >EHP1 FOR SAP SRM 7.0>Installation -->based on -->based on SAP NW 7.02 --> 51039147_1 SRM-MDM CATALOG 7.01 1 of 5

Any clue, please help..

FM or include that triggers Workflow in sap SRM 5.0.

Hi All,
Can anyone tell me the FM, for triggering a workflow in SAP SRM 5.0. I mean the name of the program or Include or an FM which finally triggers workflow while saving?
Thanks,
Edited by: Manoj Singh on Oct 6, 2011 6:51 PM

Hi Gaurav,
Thanks for responding. Yes, all the backend config are in place since I am able to successfully run an equivalent RFC (BBP_PD_SC_GETLIST) and another RFC named BBP_PD_SC_GETDETAIL from SE37. The problem seems to be something very specific to the ES. May I request you to run this ES at your end (if possible) and let me know the result possibly with the input and output message similar to the one I pasted in the origincal question.
Thanks in advance,

Using business objects in SAP SRM Content

There is an integration scanarion (MM->SRM) inside SAP SRM SERVER 5.0 SCV. There is a mapping between IDOC outbound interface and PurchaseOrder inbound interface.
But how PurchaseOrder is inserted into SAP SRM? Why there is no PurchaseOrder -> IDOC Mapping.
Is it a good practice to have additional layer of interfaces, for example (IDOC->PurchaseOrder->JDBC_XML instead of IDOC->JDBC_XML) ?

as far as i know, SRM is working with proxies. so for the purchase order interface in the XI content a (inbound) proxy should exist within SRM, inserting the data into the according tables.
your second question is referring to what is called a "canonical data model". in general it's not a bad idea, but it depends on the integration strategy of each company if it is used and within XI content from SAP it is definitely not used
best regards
Christine

Advantage of using SAP SRM

Hi,
Could any one please explain the advantages of using SAP SRM over MM module. As per me we can de most of the activities in MM except some vendor related activities (and that even if SUS is used).
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Lalit

Hi Lalit,
All advantages of using SRM and MM module is in Plan-Driven Procurement documentation on service.sap.com/instguides -> SRM.
Generally planning in APO or MRP in an ERP system calculates the quantity and materials required. This requirement can be transffered to the EBP system. Requisitions from SAP Plant Maintanance or Project System are also possible requirements.
The requisitions are passed to EBP. If the data is complete and unique, purchase orders can be created automatically. If the data is missing, the proffesional purchaser has to complete the missing information in Sourcing or via Process Purchase Orders. An option for the professional buyer is to assign un-sourced PO to an RFQ and send it out for bids.
The proffesional purchaser completes the orders, assings source of supply, add or deletes item.
Once the order is complete it is issued automatically to R/3. XML is the upcoming medium, since the data can be automatically integrated in more and more supplier's systes, or You can send orders by e-mail, fax or print them.
Goods receipt is either done in EBP by supplier via an XML confirmation, by employee who requested the item by general goods recipient or in the backend system. Inventory is updated in backend.
The invoice is processed in EBP manually by the requestor or an accountant submitted by the supplier via an XML invoice, possibly from SUS or backend system.
You can also look in Self-Service Procurement documentation on:

Do we need a SAP PI system to use SAP SRM enterprise services?

Hi,
I am working in a project where we need to use some enterprise services like ([Maintain Purchase Request|http://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/ESpackages/MaintainPurchaseRequest]) for SAP SRM 7.x. We have an ECC 6 system also in the landscape but the middleware is a non-SAP one. My question is that to be able to use the SRM and Enterprise Services, do we need SAP PI or SAP CE in place. Any help or useful clue/pointers is appreciated.
Best regards,
Nilay

CRM Internet Sales B2B connectivity woth SAP SRM using OCI

Dear all,
we are trying to connect a CRM Internet Sales B2B with a apartner's SAP SRM procurement process. Reading several forum and articles I found that the url to be used by the SRM part is :
http://orestes:50000/b2b/b2b/init.do?shop=b2b%20shop&forward=ocireceive&OKCODE=ADDI&TARGET=_top&FORCETARGET=yes&CALLER=CTLG&~HOOK_URL=
when however hitting this URL we get a system error :
The requested forward <b>ocireceive</b> is not defined on the action <b>com.sap.isa.isacore.action.b2b.StartApplicationAction</b>.
Any ideas?
do we need to setup anything else in CRM e-commerce in order for this to work??
Thanks.

Shouldn't that be ocireceive.do instead of ocireceive ?

Using SAP SRM on Windows Tablet

Hi All,
(1) Have anyone used SAP SRM portal on a windows tablet? How is the experience? Any Issues?
(2) Can we install SAP GUI on a windows Tablet (assume that I have enough memory in the Tab).
Thanks,
Ganapathi

Hi,
I guess both 1 & 2 are possible in Windows Tablet or Mobile devices...because the OS is same..
But I could not try this as I (or none of my friends) don't have these device. If someone has tried, kindly share the experience, or if someone knows about the compatibility regarding these, please confirm.

What product to use with EHP1 FOR SAP SRM 7.0 JAVA System

Hello,
I install EHP1 FOR SAP SRM 7.0 JAVA system and now I what create this system in SAP Support Portal.
What product should I select: SAP SRM or SAP Netweaver?
If I select SAP SRM, in version I don't have option to select SRM 7.0 EHP1 and no Technical usage to select.
If I select SAP Netweaver, in version I have SAP Netweaver EHP2 and I can select Technical usage "Application server java" and "EP Core" but not SRM java.
In Solution Manager I have the same problem, what products shoul I select to create this system in SMSY?
This JAVA system is not in the same network so I don't know how to synchronize system data.
Best regards,
Filipe

Hello,
SAP told us to register the license of SAP SRM in ERP installation number only and when I am creating the SRM system in ERP installation number stuck in the same situaltion as it's not giving an option for SRM EHP1 and not sure what to select for the license and what in SMSY.

Portal Runtime Error while performing User Mapping to SAP SRM

Portal Runtime Error
An exception occurred while processing a request for :

User Mapping not fully available..
Exception id: 04:21_23/06/05_0073_8097650
See the details for the exception ID in the log file

Hi,
yes, Karsten is correct. Just some background:
"User Mapping not fully available.." finally means that user mapping is configured to use strong encryption, but the main crypto key for user mapping is missing. Usually, that's because "SAP Java Cryptographic Toolkit" and/or "JCE policy files for unlimited strength encryption" are not installed (or the server hasn't be restarted afterwards). The note will most likely help
