Shopping Cart Workflow - "Wait for change event" not firing?

Hi there,
I have a scenario where if I create a shopping cart above my spending limit it will go into the approver's inbox, that is fine.
Now if I change the total value of the shopping cart to be within my spending limit the original workflow should be "logically deleted" and a "no step approval workflow" should be triggered.
I see when the SC workflow triggers it also branches with a "wait for events", so that if it changes etc it will get caught here.
When I change the SC it does not do anything, the value of the cart changes but it still sits in the approvers inbox and the "no step approval workflow" does not trigger.
We are busy upgrading to SRM 5.0, it worked perfectly in the SRM 3.0 system we had.
Any ideas what would cause the "change event" not to fire?
Thanks for the help

Hey Masa,
You are the man!! That solved it.....I have implemented the BBP_WFL_SECUR_BADI and for whatever reason I set the security level to 4 when it should have been 2.
4     "High" (workflow is never restarted when changes are made)
3     "Medium" (WF restarted conditionally when changes are made)
2     "Low" (workflow is always restarted when changes are made)
1     "None" (changes to the object are not allowed)
0     "Not defined"
Thanks for the help

Shopping Cart workflow retrigger for changes done to SC already created

Hi all,
A shopping cart is created and later on in "Check Status" when the shopping cart is opened in change mode and any changes are made to the shopping cart either header or item level, the whole approval workflow is retriggered and the approvers are determined again.
We have a scenario where for a particular account assignment category the approvers are added manually - ad hoc approvers through the "Add Approver" in "Approval Preview". For these shopping carts with manual approvers when in "Check Status" any changes are done to header or items of the shopping cart, the whole approval workflow is retriggered and the manual approvers previously added are refreshed as per standard SAP.
I have to put a check in DOC_CHECK badi for the existence of approvers. If no approvers found an error message has to be thrown for adding the approvers manually. I am doing this by reading the approvers from the container for a cart created already. But when changes are made and the workflow is retriggered, the workflow container contains only the previous approvers and not the refreshed ones. So this is not captured in DOC_CHECK badi.
Is there any way to capture the retriggering of workflow in DOC_CHECK badi, so that the check for approvers works fine even after a change being done to a shopping cart which is already created.
Thanks and Regards,
Asha

Try this FM BBP_PDH_WFL_APPROVAL_SIMULATE

Error in work flow wait for change event

Error in work flow wait for change event of business object bus1014, Actually this business object is triggering for two transaction one is me21n and another is c201 . am trying to create fork with two branches one is create and another if change occurs wait will trigger, bt when i trigger work flow controll is not after fork, it will stop in fork only. and am not getting my workflow container variable getting instantiate, am getting error in wait. please any one get out of me in this

Hi Sangeetha
What is LV_MATERIAL? is it a BO container element? or a class element or a just a simple variable?
Error message is clear, you are trying to evaluate LV_MATERIAL but it does not contain a value.
This is a custom workflow as it begins with WS9xxxxxxx... what is LV_MATERIAL used for? what are we expecting it to hold? maybe, from event to workflow binding we can pass the value to it.
Please share the following:
1) Definition screen shot of LV_MATERIAL
2) Screen shot of The step where it is first used - from SWDD
3) Screenshot of Event to Workflow Binding
4) name of your base Business Object (seen in the triggering events tab of the WF template in PFTC)
5) What is the corresponding variable for that BO in your workflow container
6) Screen shot of WF definition from SWDD - please identify the step going in error in that screen shot

Correlations in Workflow - wait for Delete event problem

Hi All,
I am working on version ECC5.
I have a workflow that needs to wait for any changes to i0008, i0007, i0509 and i2001 for the person who is the subject of the workflow. I have used correlations to do this and it is all working fine except for the Delete event.
For each infotype I wait for each event ie. Approved, Changed, Created, ApprovedCancelled and Delete. When the events are published the wait event is triggered and the workflow goes to the next steps where it does a recalculation, fires off a new workflow and ends the current one. This is working for all of the events except Delete. The Delete event is set up exactly the same as the rest, but somehow the workflow wait event is not triggered. It is happening with the Delete event for all the Infotypes I am waiting for.
Does anybody have any suggestions as to what may be the problem.
Thanks
Sandra

Arghadip/Martin thanks for your replies.
Yes, the delete event is being published. I am using the same object e.g BasicPay for the delete event that I am using for the other events - Approved, Created etc. that are working. The correlation and the wait for event steps are set up exactly the same way as they are for the events that are working. I find it curious that the delete event doesn't work for any of the infotypes. Why? Could it be that when a record is deleted the object no longer exists?
Any suggestions?
Thanks
Sandra

Workflow WAIT FOR EVENT STEP deadline not working

Hi,
Need some inputs for the experienced people;
I have a wait for event step in a workflow with deadline monitoring (Latest End) but it doesn't seem to work.
Ofcourse, all the required setting are in place and deadline works fine for other Activity steps.
The problem is specific to Wait for event step.
The alternative is having a fork but I just want to know why the wait step with deadline doesn't work.
Thanks,
Roopesh

Hello Ajay,
Can you share with us what did you do to solve your problem?
I'm facing the same thing in my project now, I'm wandering if you could help me with this one.
I have this wait for an event step wich is configured to wait 4 minutes since the work item creation. I've also selected 'Modeled' on the Action field, and a display text for the outcome.
But in one of my tests, the event hasn't occurred and the workflow stuck in this task forever.
Thanks in advance.
Regards.
Actually, I think I got this handled. This thread was really helpful to me: http://scn.sap.com/thread/47482

Shopping Cart Workflow Problem is not able to determine agents

Hi Experts,
We are facing a problem in SRM 5.0 shopping cart workflow. Normal flow is as follows: -
Create SC > Goes for Approval to level 1 approver > Item appears in Approver's list > L1 approver approves it > Follow - on Document is created.
Currently while creating shopping cart, we are able to see name of approver in approval preview. Still that item doesn't appear in approver's list. We checked in workflow log, it is getting stuck in task which is supposed to determine next level approver.
Currently approval is done using workflow template WS14000133 and BADI BBP_WFL_APPROV_BADI. In this BADI we are able to find approver perfectly but that is not getting filled in the container of workflow. The Approver List of workflow container is appearing blank.
Any pointers to this issue will be helpful
Thanks
Siddarth

Hi Ricardo,
In BBP_WF_APPROV_BADI we have implemented Method GET_REMAING_APPROVERS. The code snippet of method is as follows: -
CALL METHOD EXITINTF->GET_REMAING_APPROVERS
EXPORTING
    IN_UPDATE = IN_UPDATE
    DELETE_REJECTED_ITEMS = DELETE_REJECTED_ITEMS
    ITEM_DEDUCT_RESET = ITEM_DEDUCT_RESET
    ITEM_APPROVAL_HISTORY_TABLE = ITEM_APPROVAL_HISTORY_TABLE
    APPROVAL_HISTORY_TABLE = APPROVAL_HISTORY_TABLE
    ACTUAL_APPROVAL_INDEX = ACTUAL_APPROVAL_INDEX
    GUID = GUID
    OBJECT_TYPE = OBJECT_TYPE
    OBJECT_ID = OBJECT_ID
IMPORTING
    APPROVAL_TABLE = APPROVAL_TABLE
    APPROVAL_ADMINISTRATORS = APPROVAL_ADMINISTRATORS
    ITEM_APPROVAL_TABLE = ITEM_APPROVAL_TABLE
    NO_FURTHER_APPROVAL_NEEDED = NO_FURTHER_APPROVAL_NEEDED
CHANGING
    ITEM_APPROVAL_OBJ = ITEM_APPROVAL_OBJ.
Now can you please tell me which variable I am suppose to look at?
Thanks
Siddarth

Iphone 4s not syncing to iTunes *waiting for changes to be applied*

I have a brand new iphone 4s that wouldnt sync with my pc desktop and i recently got a new mbp and the same thing is happening an error keeps popping up in Itunes after the 2nd step of syncing and it says waiting for changes to be applied. Its really frustrating i restored my phone and it did nothing for the syncing just deleted all my apps...and ive researched these problem before and its obvioius a big occurance with other users and apple has done nothing?!?! wth !! and i have no voice memos on my phone so there is nothing to delete for those that have solved their issue that way....So if someone has a solution to help me sync my iphone 4s to my mbp i would greatly appreciate since obviously apple does not care to fix this issue!!!! terrible..

also tried to wifi sync and nothing ...

When syncing after recent update, sync is stuck at "Step 4 of 4" "Waiting for changes to be applied" and will not complete, even after hours. How can this be fixed?

I completed the most recent software update for both iTunes and iPhone recently. I am now trying to sync my iPhone to add newly purchased audiobooks and the sync remains stuck at "Step 4 of 4" with the message "Waiting for changes to be applied" I have tried everything to correct this. When sync is cancelled a failure to sync message is generated. Any ideas????

Alright, so I reset my computer and suddenly it then recovered. Other times it wouldn't recover after resetting the computer, so I have no idea how it happened. I just restarted the computer lots of time and finally it worked.
Okay, back to square one. Now to transfer music, I tried my previous acknowledgable solutions but they didn't work. The iPod touch does not feature a hard-disk mode, and windows media player doesn't support iPods.
I've tried multiple programs to transfer music but none of them work properly and keep giving me error codes. So my iPod still gets stuck at Step 4: Waiting for changes to be applied or whatever it said.
Thanks in advance ._. (Please help)
p.s - Apple is useless. If I don't get steady answers tomorrow I'm going to end up calling them and get this problem fixed first hand. Second hand? I don't know, over the **** phone.

Bought a Brand New iPod touch, my entire music library WILL NOT SYNC (stuck on waiting for changes)

I just bought a new ipod touch, and I'm really struggling to not throw this thing against the wall.
My music won't sync. Its stuck on "Waiting for Changes to be applied"
Im not trying to sync anything else, no video, pictures, apps, anything. Just music. My old iPod touch syncs just fine. I can't restore it, because the restore takes it back to when I was setting the ipod up. I factory reset my ipod many times. I've tried manually syncing songs individually but it hangs on the same spot.
My mac is up to date, my ipod is up to date, my itunes is up to date. What the **** can I do?

I have been able to get SOME songs on by doing artist one by one. I also took off all album art. I have only 10 songs or so that I have bought so this is all my own stuff. I just bought a refurbished ipod touch from the apple store. It seems weird to me that it is not all ipods, just some and with the searching I have done, it was mainly Sept to Nov of last year there was issues.... I feel like returning my ipod and hoping I get one with no issues.

Change Shopping Cart Workflow

Trying to figure out a way to route the shopping cart back to the requestor at all points during the approval process. There are customizations made to the workflow such as a finance reviewer, a commodity approver, manager (org hierarchy) and a financial approver (for $50K+). Client wants shopping cart to come back to approver at any point. Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance.

Basically, what we want to do is to route the shopping cart back to the requestor at any point in the approval process. Commodity Approval is based on material group, Manager Approval is based on shopping cart amount and org hierarchy, CFO approval is based on shopping cart amounts over $500k.Approval amounts are nased on a Z-Table. Using workflow WS14000133 n-step approval of shopping cart (BADI)
Thanks for the response so far! Let me know if you need any additional info MJ!

ITunes 11.1.1 will not sync with ios 7.02 - "waiting for changes to applied"

iTunes 11.1.1 running on MacBook Air will not sync with ios 7.02 - "waiting for changes to be applied". I have been having this issue since upgrading to 11.1. I thought the upgrade to 11.1.1 will take care of it

Yes, my iPhone 5 running ios 7 will not sync in *any* way with itunes now. I can neither add nor remove content via itunes. I just tried to delete 100% of my music from my iphone, it hung forever on "Waiting for changes to be applied" and then when it was finally done... no changes had been applied.
I can't add, remove, change, delete or in any way of any kind sync my iphone with itunes any longer.
I'm becoming the person who refuses to update to the new Apple OS. I used to get very excited about new OS updates. That all ended around Mountain Lion. Yesterday when I saw that Mavericks was out I wasn't excited. Instead I felt a sense of dread, and for good reason. Every time they release an OS in the last few years it's just a cluster-F.

How do i get my iphone 6 plus past the "Waiting for changes to be applied" in itunes.Not syncing music.

I am having trouble with step 5 of syncing. It cant get past the "Waiting for changes to be made" part of the syncing process. Then if I eject the music is not on there. Help?

Go to your App Store and see if you have an App that is in the process of updating or for some other reason in-progress. Check your iTunes for something that is in-progress.

HT1351 My iPhone 5 will not sync music after I updated to the new iOS7. The message "waiting for changes to be applied" remains on the screen. I have restored my iPhone and reset it and nothing seems to be working.

I even have the updated version of iTunes and I am not sure what else I am supposed to do.

Yes, I have the exact same problem with my 4s! Updated to iOS 7 and can't sync. It's extremely frustrating, as music is crucial in my daily life. I was able to remove all songs from my iPhone...and now when I try to sync the 4,000 or so I've selected, it will sync maybe 11 or 12 (if it gets past the "Waiting for changes to be applied" screen), and then just completely stop. No error code or anything. It just stops. It's driving me crazy. See the following 2 links, one is a discussion I created and the 2nd is 5 or so people with the same issue.
