Travel Approval Process

Hi,
We are in process of Implementing Travel management.
And we are currently testing the following two Standard Workflow templates
WS12500022 - ExpAutoAppr
WS20000040 - Trip Approval
Both the Workflow templates were tested with the transaction "TRIP"
So when a new Domestic Travel expense is created in TRIP.
The events - BUS2089 CREATED and CHANGED are created (as found thro SWEL)
and so both the workflow templates are called.
The problem is :
In case of WS20000040 - The execution stops in the Step -"Wait for 'Changed' event".
In case of WS12500022 - the Workflow template is fully executed and status changes to completed - after executing the same wait step -"Wait for 'Changed' event".
So can anybody explain , why the same step in the two standard templates, work in totally different logic.
Regards,
Raj
Note:
ECC Version 6.0

This is two different "programs". I don't have any experience with them, but it seems that WS12500022 is an enhancement of WS20000040. Not sure why they wouldn't just change WS20000040, but that is probably a policy issue in SAP.
So in short, activate just one of them, the one that acts the way you want it to.
However, that wasn't really answering your question... sorry about that and you probably already saw it yourself. The behaviour for the "Changed" event should be the same, at least in the system here (also ECC 6.0) both of them have a parallel listening branch which just listens for Changed and which will end the workflow if it completes.
1) Check SM58 to see if there were problems in the event delivery to the WS20000040 workflow, I have seen workflows stop in event waiting steps, and it has always (as far as I can recall) been due to SM58 problems.
2) Check that no-one has fiddled with the workflow template and made it wait for 2 of 2 branches or added some other condition to the parallel branch end node.

Approver Details Not Visible After Changing the Approval Process

Hi Gurus,
This expense report belongs to an open approval task when an approval process has ended its validity date.
After a new approval process is activated, all pending approval tasks experience the issue of approver details not showing.
In order to reproduce following steps need to be done :
1. Deactivate the current approval process and activate the new approval process.
2. When the status of the recently deactivated approval process is "Ended With Open Tasks", go to the "Show Open Approval Tasks" to
see the open approval tasks.
3 Check the Cost Assignment area for expense report which is in the open approval tasks.
3. Approver Details are available.
4. The approver sees the expense report on his/her approval list.
Once the approver approves, it doesn't go out of his/her approval list and the expense report is still pending for approval.
To determine if the expense report has no other pending approval from anyone else, there should be the approver
details but the issue is it doesn't show up.
The expense report is also stuck on the approver's approval list even after approving.
Workaround provided to the Customer: Recall the ER and submit again for approval.
But as per customer there should be a background job to refresh the expense report to reflect the approval details.
And issue should not occur as explained on the point 4.
Kindly suggest if anything is possible to improve the system behavior.
Regards,
Rahul Mishra

Hi Rahul,
Although we have a workaround, I believe a permanent solution has to be implemented.
In cases when an expense report has more than one approver (for example there are 4 approvers) and the 3 approvers had already approved, I think it will not be good to recall the expense report and resubmit because the traveler will have to seek for approval again from all the approvers.

Approved invoices can not be edited - Approval process

Hi Experts -
I have recently raised an incident with SAP about Approval process - the complete message and support reply is as follows - but i believe we need a change in the approval process - if the approval required is only one but you have defined two people (Either or OR) in the approver list - the system should allow the document to be edited if one of the approvers reject it.
please let me know and i believe we need a change in design - unless otherwise a solid reason is given to justify the existing design
10.07.2009 10:32 Description (English) by SRS Manian
     We have created approval procedure for all the invoices which are entered into the system., The
'Accts' user enters the invoice into the system - the invoice comes for approval to 'Manager' user.
When the Manager opens the invoice via Alert window - he/she wants to modify certain information
(lines as well as Sales person) and approve it.
The invoice which gets opened from the alert window - does not allow the user 'Manager' to modify at
all. All the information on the invoice are greyed out.
The system should allow the user 'Manager' to modify the information. Since the manager has full
authorization to the system.

     Dear Manian,
Thank you for contacting us.
When the originator sends the document for manager's approval, note that the at that stage, the document is still in the 'Approval Process'. This is because the system is waiting for the 'Manager' to 'Approve or Reject' the document. Hence, looking at the Document, it is still in 'Draft - Pending' Status.
When the document is in 'Draft-Pending' Status, the document is not available for editing, because the system considers that it is still in the waiting process. In your case, the manager cannot edit t he document.
To amend the document, an action is required from the approver either to reject it first. Once rejected, it can be amended and re-sent for approval.
I have checked our knowledge base and noted that there is an article which describes the approval process. Please refer to the Expert on Phone Wiki Article (March 2009) with title: Why a draft documen t in an approval process cannot be modified by the originator?
The link will provide the explanation:

     Thanks for the reply. The scenario is when the Manager receives the
document for approval, he wanted to edit and add it. Your reply (and
documentations) states that it needs to be rejected first before it is
available for editing. When it is gets rejected - the person who
orignated the document gets an alert and he can edit it. Here the
Manager must get an alert so that he can edit the Rejected document.
When the 'manager' rejects the document, and goes back to the alert
window to open the document - it is still greyed out !!
How does the 'manager' reject the document and edits it ?

     Dear Manian,
If after the Manager rejects it and still the document is not editable (greyed out), it means that the document may still be in the 'Approval Process'. When it is greyed out, what is the status of the document in the header? Does it say 'Rejected' or 'Pending'?
If it is still in 'Pending' mode, please verify the number of 'Approvers' set in the 'Stages' tab of the 'Approval Template - Setup' window. If there is more than one user listed as 'Approver', and o nly 1 approval is required, the system provides an opportunity to other 'Approvers' to approve or reject the document. If in your case, the number of approvers is 2, and manager 'rejected' it, the sys tem still keeps the document in Pending status as it waits for another approver's decision to reject or approve it.
Also, verify the number of 'Approvals' required. If the number of 'Approvers' who have not rendered their decision is greater than or equal to the 'Approvals' required (e.g. approvers - 2, required ap provals - 2) the system keeps the document within the approval process. This is to allow the other 'Approvers' to decide on the document.
I hope this clarifies the behaviour. If you can provide us a step by step screenshot of the issue, this may help us to provide a more accurate response.

When the header says 'Pending', then it means the document is still within the approval process. Please check the Approval Template and see the number of approvers and the number of approvals require d.
The number of approvals and approvers may be greater than 1. In this case, the system waits for other approvers to approve or reject the document. Once all the approvers have rejected the document, th en the document will be released and available for editing.

     Hi:
Thanks for the reply - i tried this and found out the following:
1 - In the approval templates - we had mentioned number of approvals
required as '1'.
2 - in the number of approvers - we had mentioned two users
Though the template requires only one approvals (Either or OR) the system
expects both of them to approve or reject -
Can u please let me why is this behaving like this - or is this is the
way it is designed ? - if this is the way it is designed - i beleive it
is wrong - weneed to give a solution to the customer

     Dear Manian,
Thank you for the information. The behaviour is a current system definition documented as per Note 1321234. I have attached the said Note for your reference. When only 1 approval is required and there are 2 or more persons are allowed to approve the document, the document does not get automatically rejected when 1 person 'rejects' it. The system waits for other approvers to render their decision b ecause a person may still approve or reject the document.
The design is not an application error. If you would like to change this design, please post your requirement in our SAP Business One Product Development Collaboration

Approval process (Release strategy of scheduling agreement)

Hi,
Recently we are trying to implement the approval process of scheduling agreements.
Client requirement is when ever there is a change in price irrespective of the following
1. Retrospective price change in any line item
2. Current price change in any line item
3. Future price updation in SA in any line item
4. New addition of line item
the system should trigger the release process (i.e. Approval process).
Our idea is to design the approval process based on document type and net value of SA. Based on which trigger should happened. But when we test it we find the following issues.
1. Trigger is not happening for future date price change or price for new period as the net value of SA is based on validity time.
Becuase the net value change will happen only on that onwards..
Also we are not using any cumulative pallned values in agreements.
Any can suggest the best solution to over come this..or Any user exit is avaliable to handle this issue.
regards,
K.Sundaresan.

Below are the (changed) item fields :
Purchasing Document Item Change Date AEDAT
Item Delivery Date EINDT
Schedule Line is "Fixed "FIXKZ
Below are the (changed) header fields :
Release Indicator: Purchasing Document FRGKE
Release status FRGZU
Purchasing document processing state PROCSTAT
Item and header changes have same "Change document number " and transaction code "ME38" , this happened only in some cases,Rel Strategy is on document type level ,I am also confused on this .
Please assist on this

How to use a pwa group in CREATE A TASK PROCESS in SPD 2013 for project server workflow approval process

I am working on a Project Server 2013 workflow. I am creating this using Sharepoint Designer 2013. In this workflow I am using approval process at one stage. I have created a security group SalesManagers in PWA. I want to use this group for workflow approval
process. I want all users of this group get approval tasks.
For this I used START A TASK PROCESS activity in the SP Designer. I clicked on
this user and created task process. But here I could not find SalesManager group which I created in PWA. I was only able to find the users. I can also see
Administrators for PWA . But couldnot find SalesManager or any other security group created in pwa.
Can anyone suggest how I can get the security group created in pwa.

NBDevelopment,
I believe SPD only recognizes the SharePoint Groups and not the project server security groups.
The Administrators for PWA, and few other groups like Project Managers for PWA etc., are synced SharePoint Groups with the security groups, which is why they show up in SPD.
You could create a SharePoint Group for the Sales Managers group and use that in SPD.

</Fault>

Hi,
I have run into the same problem with SOA 11.1.1.5 version. In my case after fixing the following two errors it seems to work fine.
If you have followed the guide, there must be some errors:
First the java code if copied then contains an extra enter value:
Instead of:
"try {
System.out.println("Prototype for invoking an OIM API from a SOA Composite");
System.out.println("RTM Usecase: Self Registration Approval by Organization
Administrator");"
Use the following:
"try {
System.out.println("Prototype for invoking an OIM API from a SOA Composite");
System.out.println("RTM Usecase: Self Registration Approval by Organization Administrator");"
The other error is that you should not use <BEAHOME>/oracle_common/modules/oracle.jps_11.1.1/jps-manifest.jar, but the <BEAHOME>/oracle_common/modules/oracle.jps_11.1.1/jps-api.jar in jdeveloper. After these the deployment to the application server works fine for me.

Any idea how to resolve this ??
Thanks,

Based on the error trace
Caused By: java.sql.SQLException: ORA-12899: value too large for column "DEV_OIM"."REQUEST_APPROVALS"."APPROVAL_STATUS" (actual: 442, maximum: 32)
you are inserting a value too large for REQUEST_APPROVALS.APPROVAL_STATUS column. It should contain values like COMPLETED, approved, rejected etc... Check your custom approval process again.

ITEM tab in the Approval Process overview IN srm 7.0 AND EP 7.1

Hi Friends,
I am working in SRM 7.0 with EP 7.1..
1 . I have to remove 'ITEM' tab in the approval process overview screen which is apprearing in Portal. approval process overview screen will be appeared when 'Display / Edit Agents' Button in the Header level of the Shopping cart screen.
2 . Remove Approval Process overview tab in the detail screen of the shopping cart.
Any idea
John.

Hi Masayuki,
Thank you for your quik reply.
can you please explain little bit more on this..
2. tab
Easy way is right click, User Setting -> Hide Tab. or User Setting -> More.. Remove display tab
I tried this option but this is each user setting , Can we make this centerlized?
or
Go to SE80 Webdynpro and change the visible property.
I know the webdynpro for this tab but to change this visible property do I need have access key( Core modification ) or any other way to do such as enhancement spot?
John.

Request Approval Process exception in OIM 11g

Hi,
We have upgraded oim 9.1 to oim 11.1.1.5 and we did not have any request approvals in oim 9.1.
Now we are using oim 11g to develop request approval process. We have tried to raise a request for "Provisioning Resource" - Application Access and "Assign Role" - Business Role Request in OIM 11g environment. Both the Requests are failing with the same exception as below,
Error:
IAM-2050014:An error occurred while initiating approvals for request oracle.iam.platform.workflowservice.exception.IAMWorkflowException: Tasklist mapping failed for workflowdefinition: default/DefaultRequestApproval!1.0 due to javax.naming.NamingException: String index out of range: -1. The corresponding error message is {1}.
Any idea on the above error?
Thanks!!

you can follow these videos to see if you can get a basic manager approval working for a self request resource.

Error during approval Process flow in Process controlled workflow

Hello Experts,
We are in SRM 7.0 classic scenario using Process controlled workflow.WE recently connected a new backend R/3 system to our SRM system i.e we now have 2 R/3 backend system connected to SRM system
It is regarding the two new additional account assignment categories that came into picture when we connected the new R/3 backend system to our SRM system, i.e. Asset and Network.
There seems to be some problem with the approval workflow for those SHC, that have such Acc *** Cats.
Please find below my obeservations:
- if you have just one line item in the SHC, and this item is either booked on Asset or on Network, than everything goes fine. After the Acc *** approval, the PR is created in R/3
- if you have SC with a mix between an "old" Acc *** Cat (Cost Centre, WBS and Order) and one of the "new" Acc *** Cats, than the workflow is not working as required --- the manager, that is responsible for the accounting approval of the two positions (e.g Cost Centre and Asset) gets only one work item in his approval overview --- in that work item, the two positions are there, but the Asset one is grayed out --- so, the Manager approves only the Cost Centre positions and than the SC is no longer with the approver --- if you observe the SC now from the requisitioner point of view, the status of the line items in the approval process overview of both(!) lines is "approved", but the overall status of the SC is still "in approval"
Can you all experts plz let us know why this is happening and how this can be resolved?
Any pointers will be highly appreciated.
Thanks & Regards,
RKS

Change Status of archived document after approval process

hi how can we change the status of an archived document in KM after it has gone thru the approval process.
the reason once we archive we cannot resubmit the document for approval.
thanks

Hi Venu,
have a look under System Administration - System Configuration -- Knowledge Management -- Configuration --Content Management -- User Interface -- Commands -- UI Command Groups -- StatemanagementGroup.
See Java class: com.sapportals.wcm.rendering.uicommand.cm.UIStatemanagementGroupCommand. Take the class and decompile this and everything needed around to understand how this class works.
Then you can choose to extend this CommandGroup to also have a command "Resubmit for Approval" or you can implement your own UI Command only for resubmitting (you will also have to activate your command (group) by settings within the configuration).
On the other hand, if all this is completely new to you, I'm a bit sceptical if the task isn't a bit too big as a first task on KM implementation topics...?
Hope it helps
Detlev

Customize approval process on AP payment cancellation

Dear all,
Is there any one ever add an approval process to the AP payment cancellation function? Could anyone pls share how you can achieve the customization? Our user requirement is there should be an approver to review the selected payment records for cancellation.
HY

Hi,
I feel there is one workaround for this issue, but evaluate this as per your requirement.
Enable Journal approval for Receivables Journal Source and periodically post the Journal entries of Receivables to General Ledger.
Ask the approver to approve the receipts in General Ledger. (Using drilldown functionality if required).
If there is any mistake the approver can always ask for reversal of Original receipt and direct the user to enter new one.
Only drawback is Sales Invoices should also be approved. These should be approved blindly.

Sridhar
