Value flow to Work-Flow Notification

Dear Experts,
Following is the issue.
In a notification type the 'Action Box' has been configured and provided with 'Create Notification' functionality.
Now the 'Cost Center' value in the Location tab of the Main Notification is not flowing to the notification created through action box (WF-BATCH).
Please help in achieving this.
Kind Regards
Jogeswara Rao

You will probably need to copy this FM to a "Z" version and add the additional data as required.
Then assign the new FM to your Action Box settings in the IMG.

Standard Work Flow

Hi,
Can any1 tell me about the standard work flows (not work flow module) available in SAP. We want Purchase Requisition & PO release should be through email. (not SAP Inbox).
Thanks,
Rashid.

hi rashid,
BC - Workflow Scenarios in Applications (BC-BMT-WFM)
Purpose
With SAP Business Workflow, SAP AG provides an efficient cross-application tool enabling integrated electronic management of business processes. SAP Business Workflow is a solution which has been integrated fully in the R/3 System and which enables customer-specific business process flows to be coordinated and controlled on a cross-application and cross-work center basis. SAP Business Workflow therefore enhances "ready-made" application software. The SAP Business Workflow definition environment can represent business processes simply and can respond to changing external conditions quickly, even in a live system, by adapting the existing business processes.
Workflow Scenarios
Many SAP applications use SAP Business Workflow enabling preconfigured workflow scenarios to be reused in various situations. The scenarios can either be implemented without any changes or configured for your business processes by making minor adjustments. These workflow scenarios reduce implementation time significantly and have been optimally configured for the respective application functions.
Many workflow scenarios are integrated in IDES (International Demonstration and Education System). It is possible to simulate the business processes of a model company in this fully-configured system.
Features
The workflow scenarios can be divided into three categories:
Creating events
Events are created to report status changes for an application object and to allow a reaction to the changes.
Document 4711/98 posted
Material XYZ created
These events can be used as triggering events for your own tasks or workflows. The events are therefore "connected" in a flexible and customer-specific way to application events, without having to modify the standard part of the application.
In some cases, the triggering of these events is not activated in the standard version, but depends on the Customizing settings. You can find further information in the application scenario documentation.
Providing SAP tasks
A task contains a task description and the connection to the application logic via the method for a business object. Before you can use a task productively, you must assign the tasks to its possible agents.
The tasks provided by SAP are generally used as steps in SAP workflows, but you can use them for your own developments as well.
Release change request
Change purchase order
If a workflow scenario only involves one task, the scenario can usually be regarded as a minimal solution for showing the connection between application functionality and SAP Business Workflow. For differentiated control, this SAP task should be replaced by a customer-specific task.
You can find further information in the application scenario documentation.
Providing SAP workflows
A workflow contains a complete workflow definition covering several steps. An SAP workflow has a complete workflow definition, but must still be adapted to the organizational environment of the customer.
Release a purchase requisition
Recruitment
In cases in which SAP workflows describe business processes which also occur in your company, or in cases in which changes should not be made to the SAP workflow for technical reasons, the SAP workflows supplied can be used without any changes or adapted using workflow configuration.
In all other cases, the SAP workflows can be used as templates for your own developments. The existing process structures of the business application components, which are often represented within a transaction, are generally not replaced. SAP Business Workflow is seen as an integration level "above" the standard business functions and uses the existing transactions, function modules, and reports.
see the below links for entire info on workflow.

Using attachments in work-flow and creating custom text with key values

Hi,
I have 2 simple requirements.
1. how to attach a tcode or trigger method of business object for work-flow item. The user should be able to navigate to transaction to see data before approval or rejection.
2. I have created custom task for long text that will be displayed in the SAP inbox. How do I provide key values in this long text. I was able to do in the subject line using Substitution parameters(&Name1& etc..)
Regards
Kasi

I did the same thing. see details.
Created Workitem and attached a task "TS92500097". in the task, I mentioned Business Object and method to be called. I have set the binding also for this business object. the method I am calling is nothing but just "display" which is using call transaction. 2 problems here.
1. How do I show this "BusinessObject.Display" as an attachment or link in the mail.
2. how do I assign key values during exection of this attachment or link.

Work Flow Notification mailer

Hello Team:
We have enabled work flow notification mailer service in our EBS system. Last week I restarted the services ( ALL Tiers ) and as soon as I did the restart. The business users started to receive Notification mailers. Apparently a bunch of them. I looked at the Workflow configuration settings and I was unable to figure out the setting that triggers this email stuff.
Any idea about where this setting should be checked and tuned . We are on 11.5.10 CU2 and it is running on RHEL 4.0.
Regards,
Bala

Bala,
If you are using notification mailer services just for testing purpose then update "Set Override Address" option in "Workflow Notification Mailer" services to a active mail a/c, so that all testing mails will be re-directed to this a/c instead of various users mail a/c. But if you are implementing the notification services, then pls go though the notification services implementation document once and set the required parameters as per your business requirements.
Users also disable receiving mails at their end, by editing their e-biz user a/c "preferences" and set e-mail notification style to no e-mail notifications option.

Standard SAP work flow in Quality Notification (TASKS)

Hello Experts
we are using ECC 6. I am testing standard SAP workflow in quality notification (QN).
I have done following:
1. craeted QN with type F2 and assigned defects and tasks. In tasks,under column TASK PROCESSOR I selected user responsible.I also assigned my SAP user id under RESPONSIBLE column to receive SAP email when task is released.
2.realeased tasks and QN, saved QN.
3. in TX SBWP , see SAP email under Outbox->Started workflow area with status "READY"
My expectation is that I should be getting email in my SAP INBOX or in workflow to confirm that email is sent to appropriate user.
Seems that currently it is in-transit stage and not sent.
Do let me know what I am missing, any configuration required.
Thanks

Hi,
For all three tasks, it is very conveniant to assign ROLE or USER itself to the task.
But for that Purchse activity would be your new and separate task it self, for which you should new task, where you can assign the RULE for the Agent. That may make it optional as per your requriement.
Hope it'll work for you.

Work Flow Notifications

I have a few work flows set up. We have team members that are complaining about the frequency of the past due notices and I am looking to dial them back a bit. Maybe send them out once a week rather than daily.
I cannot find any documentation for editing the frequency of the past due notifications for the OOB application (SP 2010).
Does anyone have any information on this or know where I can find something about this?
Monica

By past due do you mean the tasks list or have you developed something custom?

Absence Notification - Work Flow

Dear All,
I have a question and I request you to provide me your valuable answer .
When a employee creates absence notification, the notification goes to the supervisor for approval or rejection.
The employee changes his mind and wants to change the dates of absence or delete the notification prior to his absence approval or rejection.
Is this possible with SAP work flow?
Thanks in Advance ,
Shankar

Hi Shankar,
As you are new to workflow I would suggest you first go through the FAQ in the WIKI which could be found through the sticky threads at the top of this forum. Also read the [SAPHelp|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/a1/172437130e0d09e10000009b38f839/frameset.htm].

User created the credit memo and submitted for approval. user is expecting the mail in his mail-box, once he submitted the credit memo for approval and same way once approver approved the credit memo, user is expecting mail such that credit memo has been approved.
He informed that previously he is receiving the mails as expected.

even i have gone through WF_USERS table this particular user is existing and status is "ACTIVE".
But user is not yet received any mail.
Kindly some one help me to sort out this issue.

Later i have checked workflow mailer, it was down, due to that notifications are not reached to users/customers.once it is up and running mail notifications sent to respective users successfully.
Many Thanks.

Info required on work flows

Hi all,
Can anyone provide me info on work flows . Any documents is highly appreciated.
Regards,
Rajashree

Hi Rajashree,
Workflow is a tool for automating the business process so that the process itself flows smoothly, without bottlenecks and without dead ends. Critical parts of the process can be streamlined with deadline monitoring and contingency options. Participants are informed of milestones in the process. The process definition itself is powerful enough to allow business re-engineering with re-training and to eliminate the impact of workforce changes on the basic business process.
SAP Business Workflow is the R/3 tool for handling the process automation within R/3 or between R/3 systems and other systems involved in the business process. It is flexible enough to handle ad hoc processes such as the circulation of an electronic document. It is robust enough to handle mission critical process in the production system such as the creation of a material master.
The different R/3 applications supply standard workflows for the commonly occurring processes. Once these workflow templates are activated, they are ready for immediate use. A complete set of workflow tools, including the workflow editor and workflow generation wizard, are provided to enhance these standard workflows or create new workflows. These tools are complemented with transactions for monitoring, tracking and the statistical analysis of the processes.
Because the business process often does not step at the R/3 boundary, various interfaces and third party tools are available for extending the process across systems.
Workflow is the technique for automating business processes. It is particularly beneficial
when different people are involved in different parts of the process
when a process only occurs sporadically and the users need to be reminded of what they need to do
when the duration of the process is critical and deadlines have to be met
when the process definition is likely to change on the fly and retraining users is not possible.
By automating the process, you free the users from having to know what to do when. Work items are sent to the participants notifying them of what they have to do, and a single click on the notification calls the correct transaction and navigates to the relevant screen.
When the workflow runs it creates work items which are like e-mails, but
they have the advantage that they contain the intelligence needed to execute the relevant task with the correct data when the operational user executes them,
they provide their own functionality so that the operational user has access to everything that is useful to improve the flow of the process,
they disappear on their own when they have been executed by someone else or made obsolete.
These work items can be received in the R/3 business workplace, MS Outlook (or any other MAPI compatible client), Lotus Notes, or work item notifications can be distributed by e-mail.
SAP Business Workflow:
accelerates the workflow across applications, functional areas, organizational units, and time periods,
supplements the integrated management of processes in the SAP System with individually tailored options for automating and actively controlling business and communication processes,
combines integrated organizational management with flexible assignment of tasks and responsibilities to locations, positions, jobs, groups, or individuals,
actively supports a quick implementation of workflow technologies through predefined workflow templates, Workflow Wizards and flexible adjustment options,
integrates every employee in the value chain by providing a versatile integrated inbox ("universal inbox") at their work centers that can be configured individually,
provides a Workflow Information System that is the foundation for process change management and continuous business engineering,
was designed to be a change-management tool,
simplifies continuous business engineering and process change management with user-friendly tools for defining and dynamically changing workflow tasks
conforms to the workflow standards of the Workflow Management Coalition (WfMC)
