Settings to recall shopping cart when awaiting approval

Hello
We are on SRM 7.0.
In SRM 7.0 when SC is in awaiting approval and requestor press edit then shopping cart can be recalled. What are the settings / sap note required for this.
Thanks,
Ashish

Hi
Are you a creator of shopping cart and trying to edit the cart while awaiting for approval ?
or
some once created and are you trying to edit the cart in awaiting for approval?
what is your SP ?

Shopping Cart in "Awaiting Approval" Status

Hi All,
There is a SC which requires an approval from one approver. The SC has gone to Approvers inbox for approval. The approver has approved the SC. After this the SC is not getting approved and its hanging in Awaiting Approval Status.
We are using N-Step BADI
When I was checking on this I was seeing entries in SM58 as below.
Caller       Function Module                Target System                    Date       Time     Status Text
XXXXXXXXX SWF_RUN_REMOTE_SERVICE         WORKFLOW_LOCAL_100               03/04/2011 06:34:01 Name or password is incorrect (repeat logon)
XXXXXXXXXX SALRT_CONFIRM                  WSCAH003SAP01_SR1_62             03/04/2011 06:34:01 Name or password is incorrect (repeat logon)
your valuable suggestions are very helpful.

Satya.

Hi,
Thats strange because the error 'Name or password is incorrect' usually occurs when RFC destination is not appropriate.
Some quick checks
1. Automatic workflow customisation (SWU3) done? All green?
2. Remote logon working?

Shopping Cart change by approver is not updating in approval preview screen

We are using SRM 4.0 in ECS and have been noticing a problem with the approval preview on the shopping cart when the shopping cart is changed or rejected by one of the added approvers.
The shopping cart was created with multiple line items for materials and when the shopping cart was ordered it workflowed to the 1st approver that was added. He noticed that a price was wrong on one of the line items of the shopping and proceeded to change it and then approved the SC. The approval preview screen in the SC shows that it was approved but the preview does not show that it was forwarded to the next approver listed on the preview screen. However checking in the backend I'm showing the SC sitting in the inbox of the next approver stating: Your shopping cart 'MD D&C LL1 dvf Vetco-Subsea Wellhead Eq' was changed/rejected in part. Please check.
Why isn't the approval preview updating when the SC is rejected or changed?

hi,
This behaviour of the system is as follows , when the first approvers makes the changes and then approves the cart , it will go to the requestor of the shopping cart , and wether the workflow should restart --->
depends on the security level of the approver who is changing the cart -->
you can find the security level of the approver --> in the transaction SU01 ---> persononalization tab ---> key bbp_wfl_security
and the text you have mentioned --->
Your shopping cart 'MD D&C LL1 dvf Vetco-Subsea Wellhead Eq' was changed/rejected in part
this is for the requestor of the cart ---> this is mail which specifies that the first approver has partially approved the cart.

Shopping cart-Requestor and Approver of Shopping cart shouldn't be same

Hi,
I have a requirement where the Requester and the Approver of the Shopping cart shouldn't be same.
This requirement needs to be met for online and offline approval both .
Secondly if the Requester is set as Approver Substitute then in that case also it should not allow the requester to approver the shopping cart as in this case he has become the approver too.

Hi,
Please check if DOC_CHANGE_BADI is called when approving SC.

Account assignment not updated in SRM's shopping cart when changes are made in ERP's PO - Classic Scenario

Hello!
A customer has classic scenario and creates shopping carts using only cost center as account assignments in SRM.
When the PO is created in ERP's backend, sometimes a purchaser changes the account assignment to Asset("A").
The account assignment changed in ERP is not reflecting in the shopping cart and the result is that the requester can not make a goods receipt in SRM because the account assignment does not match the PO.
Does anybody knows what shall be done so the account assignment in SRM is updated according to ERP?
Shall I use BBP_DOC_CHANGE_BADI?
Thanks in advance!
Best regards,
Karin

Hi Karin,
As Mithun rightly said, the changes made to the PO will not be reflected in the SC not just in Classic but in Extended Classic Scenario as well.
We create a Confirmation against a PO and not against SC, so it is not necessary that the SC needs to be updated.
Is the system allowing the creation of the Confirmation or is the error coming up when the confirmation is being posted on the backend system?
Can you check the SLG1 in SRM for the error that it is triggering when the PO is changed?
Regards

Deletion of Shopping Carts in SHC Approval View

Classic Scenario; SRM 5; R/3 46c
Hello everyone,
I was wondering if you have an approved Shopping cart, I believe that you can delete (by clicking on the trash can icon on the line item level) the shopping cart. Is it possible to control this so that no one can delete/modify a Shopping cart from the SRM side?
Thank you for your help,
Jay

Hi Yann,
As always thank you for your great replies.
My understanding is that you can set so that deletion can be controlled either at:
Deletion will be possible during SC creation
Deletion will not be possible while SC is in approval
deletion will not be possible while SC is approved
If this is the case where do I set this authorization lets say for the BBP_STAL_EMPLOYEE? I apologize for this rather basic question - any short explanation will be awesomme.
Thank you,
Jay

Process Controlled Workflow- Shopping Cart Item level approval

Hi experts,
In SRM 7.0 I have activated BC Set '/SAPSRM/C_SC_600_001_SP04' & I have implemented BADI '/SAPSRM/BD_WF_RESP_RESOLVER'.
My requirement is to send work item to WBS owner at item level.So the possible cases are 10 items will go for 10 approvers if they have 10 different WBS..
I have written logic to fetch WBS owner in method'GET_APPROVERS_BY_AREA_GUID' & assigning approvers to 'rt_approver'.
But the problem is all the approvers are assigned to all items.Rather it should be one item & corresponding WBS owner should be the approver.
Please suggest how I can achieve the required functionality.
Thank you.

Hi Masa,
I have used 'GET_AREA_TO_ITEM_MAP' only to export 'is_document-document_guid' from method '~GET_AREA_TO_ITEM_MAP' to 'GET_APPROVERS_BY_AREA_GUID'.
Can I use this method for mappping Items & approvers?
Please suggest.
Thank you.

Awaiting approval shopping cart

Hello
I am using EBP Extended classic scenario.
My customer wants a report about the next shopping cart approval,
meaning the current person who should approve the SC.
In ODS 0bbp_sca I can see approver number only when the sc is approve
(status I1129).
When the status of the shopping cart is "awaiting approval" (status
I1015) I get only one line in the SCA DOS and the column "approver
number" is empty.
In case of "awaiting approval" I expected see all the persons who
already approve the SC (in separate line) and one line of the current
person who should approve the shopping card, the KF of approval first
day and time will be filled and the KF of approval end day and time
will empty.
Thanks and best regards,
Yaniv Caspi

Hi Yaniv,
You need to enhance the datasource by adding a new field which does not contain any constraints and do write a logic for the approver no. in cmod and again activate the datasource.

Change Shopping Cart in status "Awaiting Approval"?

Hi there,
Quick question: Should a user be able to change thier shopping cart if it is still in "Awaiting Approval"? It would seem like a logical thing for the user to be able to change the quantity, date etc of the item before it is approved?
I have been looking at template SAPLBBP_SC_UI_ITS 120 and it seems SAP standard prevents this?
How would I allow users to be able to change shopping carts in awaiting approval state?
Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks
Lynton

Shopping Cart Approval & PO generation

Hi All,
I am using N step BADI for Shopping Cart approval process. Here can we generate the PO even when the Shopping Cart is awaiting Approval.
Please let me know how POs can be created without any approval necessary?
This is Urgent!!!
Thanks,
San

Hi,
Yes this needs to be active.
This is the job which updates the item overview status from awaiting approval to approved.
We had a similar issue for one step workflow for SC where becos of this the SC's were showing awaiting approval though the approver activity is completed.
Refer OSS note 790027 which says that after all configs the status is updated by background jobs. This is the one which is explained in it.
Go to SWU3 and verify all green tick marks "Schedule background job for event queue" is the with this job. Execute it and you can display the job from here.

Forwarding Shopping Cart

I have a shopping cart in awaiting approval status,
there is no approver assigned to it,
I got the work item for this shopping cart from BBP_PD and when I go to SWIA to forward the shopping cart to an agent,
it gives error saying work item is cancelled or deleted, hence unable to forward.
how to change the status of the work item?
how to forward this shopping cart?
any alternative to restart the workflow or forward to an angent?
please advise
thanks & regards
milesh.

Hi,
The workitem id that you are getting from bbp_pd is header workitem ...
you can only forward the dialog workitem. to some one else. you can find the dialog workitem from SWIA in workflow detail log.. if the document is awaiting for approval status without assign the agent, the creator of the document can recalled the document...which then restart the workflow...
it gives error saying work item is cancelled or deleted, hence unable to forward. it means.. workitem has been deleted manully or requestor of the completed delete the document which system force the workflow to change the status..
