Trigger approval process when deadline had exceeded

Hi all,
In the workflow WS10400002 (One-step approval) , when the deadline had exceeded the approval should happen automatically.
While checking in the latest end tab, an alert mail can be triggered. but how do we make sure that the approval process happens automatically if the deadline is missed.
Thanks and regards
Kishan

As such there is no system functionality to achieve what is required..
Please create a program to check for deadline and use a workflow approve FM to explicitly approve your cart.. And run this program as a batch job..
Hope this helps.. Please let me know if you have more questions (or need the FM to approve)..
Regards
Rakesh
Ps. Please close the thread if your question is answered..

How to create Request programmatically to trigger Approval Process

My scenario is dificult... I need to start Approval Process when the user want to assign AD Resource to other user without Request service. So I want to create Request programmatically from Event Handler to start Approval Process for Provision Resource request type.
Is this right Way?

If you talk of request, you will have to use RequestService. You can use code to work with the RequestService to create the request and the approval for you.

To Activate the Approval Process when document is in update mode

Dear Expert,
I have applied the Approval Process for UDF using the query "Select Distinct 'True' From ORDR T0
Where IsNull($[ORDR.U_Rebate.number],0)>0 and $[ORDR.DocType]='I' ".
Now as the field is UDF user is able to modify even after approval procedure.
Please help me to apply the above query for the Approval process even when the document is in update mode.
regards,
PankajK

Dear Pankaj,
Current B1 design only support approval for adding document. Update will not trigger approval.
You may use SP_TN instead to block user updating it. If you are not familiar with the SP, search the forum first.
Thanks,

Hello Nicola,
Exactly what product are you using?
What version of that product?
I believe this question is in the incorrect forum, but I need this information to be able to point you in the right direction.
Also in the future, do not cross post questions to multiple forums as that is against the [Rules of Engagement|https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/wiki?path=/display/home/rulesofEngagement]

Trigger a process when a record is inserted into database

Hi, could someone tell me how to do the following (if it's possible):
when a record is inserted into a table in a database,
I want it to somehow trigger an action which will put an item into user's To-Do inBox of the WorkSpace,
the user can then open the form in the To-Do and use it to view the data in the newly inserted record.
this "user"'s login ID is part of the inserted record.
thanks

Mmm, trigger? I don't know of a way.
But I supposed you could have a process that has a timer that peroidically queries the database for changes and then do the same thing.
You could also perhaps write a Service and then use the Java API to start a process?
Maybe take a look here

Approval process when updating a Sales Order

I have created a UDF that specifies whether a Sales Order has been "Picked" and would like to ensure that a user cannot modify the Order after this change of status without an Approval. I have my SQL code and it works properly but only when the Sales Order is created and does not get triggered when it gets modified.
Thanks, Richard.

This is far more complex to implement and can hamper the performance.
FYI. The user updating the Sales Order can be only found in the ADOC (History table)
SELECT TOP 1 T0.DocNum AS 'Document Number', T0.UserSign AS 'User Signature', T0.UpdateDate AS 'Update Date' FROM ADOC T0 WHERE T0.ObjType = N'17' AND T0.DocEntry = @list_of_cols_val_tab_del AND T0.UserSign != 1 ORDER BY T0.UpdateDate DESC
Apart from the aboce, you have to also check in the ADOC table, the Update datetime with the Update datetime of the sales order and the updated field. You have to test this thoroughly before implemting

Query for checking overdue payments and trigger approval process

Hi All
I need a query to be executed when a user is tries to add a AR Delivery Document for a customer with invoices that have overdue DocDueDates.
Regards
Bongani

You probably want to check overdue dates against closed and canceled items, too:
(This allows a zero dollar document to go through, for repairs or replacements)
SELECT DISTINCT 'TRUE' FROM DBO.OINV T0
WHERE T0.[DocStatus] = N'O' AND T0.[CANCELED] = N'N' AND ($[$22.0.Number]) > 0
AND T0.CardCode = ($[$4.0.0]) AND T0.[DocDueDate] < GETDATE()

Approval process should proceed if deadlins is missed

Hi all,
In the workflow WS10400002 (One-step approval) in SRM, when the deadline had exceeded the approval should happen automatically.
While checking in the latest end tab, an alert mail can be triggered. but how do we make sure that the approval process happens automatically if the deadline is missed.
Thanks and regards
Kishan

In the Latest End tab you need to make a Modelled deadline not a Display Text. If modelled deadline is done you have to name an outcome that branches out from the task where deadline is set. Now you use this step to complete the approval step automatically and after that create a Process control step that will complete the Workflow.
Just follow the steps
1)You can use Latest End Tab in a Step which is attached to a task. Use Modelled deadline. Using this another branch is created from the step.
2)Activate the Outcome Processing obsolete for the Step that needs to be sent to the Manager.
3) Now put a process control in the branch that has been created due to modelled deadline. Use "Set Workitem to Obsolete" in the Function and provide the Step number in which the deadline step is incorporated.
4) Now create another step at the branch Processing obsolete of the step that has the deadline and copy the above step with deadline removing the deadline part. This step is only for manager.
use this accordingly in your Workflow.

hello srini,
sounds to iguru that you want to modify the order lines workflow rather than creating a database trigger. I assume that you are a boffin in workflow?

Auto approval process in workflow

Hi,
We are implementing customized workflow with approval/rejection process
There should be a auto approval process when agent does not complete task within 3 days.
When the approval is done then we are sending emails and performing some actions.
When the auto approval happnes after 3 days we do not want the workflow to terminate but it should end.
Kindly suggest if it is possible.
Thanks & Regards
Rahul

Rahul,
You can use a 'modeled deadline' to set the original workitem to obsolete after (say) 3 days.
There is a wizard available to help you with this (in ECC 6.0).
Then, on the obsolete outcome branch, you can add a new (background) step that approves
the item automatically. (This is assuming you have an 'approval' method available for the object).
hope this helps

IPhone Application Approval Process

Does anyone know details around the iPhone application approval process when submitting a newly created application? Timing??

This is the iphone users forum, made up of iphone users, to help solve issues related to using the iphone.
If you are trying to contact Apple, you are in the wrong place. Sorry.

Is it possible to trigger the approval process programmatically?

When a user attempts to add a form the add-on can intercept this but is it possible to check in the code whether this particular Form (document) would pass the approval process or not. The add-on can keep an eye on the loading forms and it can spot the authorization form, but if the approval process does not start for the current Form it would be added and that's too late for the add-on to do its stuff.
Thanks.
Svilen

Hi Svilen,
I don't think you can trigger the approval from within your add-on. However, you could check which approvals are active and retrieve the same query to run within your add-on. The results of running the query should tell you if the current document will pass the approval checks. I think there's a fair bit of work in getting this to work though :-\
Kind Regards,
Owen

How do I finish updating my iPhone4 to iOS7 when it closed down during the process as I had it tethered to my computer and I assume the computer needed the internet to complete the process?

How can I finish updating my iPhone 4 to iOS7 when I had it tethered to my computer (computer using the connection from my phone) and during the updating process, when the phone restarts itself, I lose the internet connection (silly me, not thinking of this) and now it can't finish the process. Can I use a friends computer if I log into my iTunes account...as I downloaded it ok...just cant finish the update. Any ideas?
Thanks
K

If this is the third time that this has happened to you, I don't blame you for being upset. On the other hand, after the second time, you should have learned the importance of backing up your iOS devices and apparently you didn't do that or you wouldn't be in such a panic.
You cannot downgrade the iOS, You have to restore your phone now and all of the contents will be erased. I think you know that though, and I think that you know that there is no way around it either.
