Work flow overview in PR

Hi
Iam facing a problem in customized work flow. Work item is found in T-code SWIA and in SBWP(business work place).
But When i go to Purchase requisition screen(ME53N) and click Work flow overview,I receive a message "There are no work flows that have already worked with this object"
Message no. SWL013
Any customizing was missed?
Please guide me.
Thanks
Deepak

Hi,
This sap standard functionality only searches for workflows started with the appropriate business object.
In your case BUS2105.
If you use a different one then it will not show up in here.
Kind regards, Rob Dielemans

Hii..
Work Flow- SAP Business Workflow
Purpose
SAP Business Workflow can be used to define business processes that are not yet mapped in the R/3 System. These may be simple release or approval procedures, or more complex business processes such as creating a material master and the associated coordination of the departments involved. SAP Business Workflow is particularly suitable for situations in which work processes have to be run through repeatedly, or situations in which the business process requires the involvement of a large number of agents in a specific sequence.
You can also use SAP Business Workflow to respond to errors and exceptions in other, existing business processes. You can start a workflow when predefined events occur, for example an event can be triggered if particular errors are found during an automatic check.
SAP provides several workflows that map predefined business processes. These workflows do not require much implementation. For an overview of these SAP workflows, refer to Workflow Scenarios in Applications.
Integration
SAP Business Workflow uses the existing transactions and functions of the R/3 System and does not change the functions. You can combine the existing functions of the R/3 System to form new business processes with SAP Business Workflow. The workflow system takes over control of the business processes. If you are already using SAP Organizational Management, you can use the organizational structure created there to have the relevant agents carry out the individual activities. It is possible to have an activity carried out by a position. This ensures that the respective occupiers of the position can carry out the individual activities during execution of the workflow. This means that personnel changes in your organization are taken into account immediately in the execution of a workflow.
Features
SAP Business Workflow provides a number of tools for defining and analyzing workflows as well as for monitoring operation.
The Workflow Builder is for displaying and making changes to workflows. You can make small extensions directly to the original workflows supplied by SAP, such as carrying out your own agent assignments or changing deadline monitoring.
There are several Workflow Wizards to support you in the definition of workflows, with which you can create specific parts of a workflow. The Workflow Wizard Explorer gives you an overview of the existing Workflow Wizards.
In order to make the functions of the R/3 Systems available to a workflow, you use business objects, which you can define and analyze in the Business Object Builder. These business objects are made available to the workflow in reusable tasks. The Business Wizard Explorer gives you an overview of all existing tasks.
The end user receives information about the activities they are to carry out in their Business Workplace. This provides them with a central overview of all the activities that they are authorized to carry out. They can commence the activities from here.
Several tools are available to the workflow system administrator, with which they can control and analyze the current workflows. The workflow system administrator is notified of problems automatically by the system.

Work flow in iLife

Hey kids,
I have A BUNCH of video that I need to boil down in to multiple DVDs with multiple chapters per DVD (about 8 hours). Is there a description of a good work flow from iMove to iDVD described anywhere,....Do i need to export each "chapter" as a movie and then import them into iDVD in order to maintain a chapter structure?. If so what is the best way to do this,...HELP , PLEASE!!

That's a lot of video! In general, the workflow I prefer is doing editing in iMovie, quitting, then open iDVD and import the video. iDVD has 3 options for converting video into the correct format for DVDs, and you set this in Preferences (up to 60 min=Best Performance; up to 120 min=Best Quality; the Pro setting takes longer, but does a better job with the more highly compressed 2hr video). With so much video, it might make sense to divide your footage by 110 minute blocks (there needs to be room for a few other files so you can't fit a full 120 minutes of video on a single layer DVD).
That's a high level overview; Klaus' links will give you more details; the "Missing Manual" and other books will provide lots more detail; and the forum here is good for questions.

Flow (overview/conceptual flow) of MM

The flow (overview/conceptual flow) of MM (from the ABAper's point of view)?

Hi,
MM starts with creation of purchase requsition ,it is an internal document raised inside the orgasitation.If suppose ur pc is not working you will tell this to your manager and he/she in turn need to place an order to the it dept for the new pc .this is internal doc flowing inside the organisation.this is purchse requistion.
After the purchase requisition IT dept checks for the satndard vendors that are avaiable to buy pc like Hp,IBM,DELL.(vendor :A company which supplies parts or services to another company. also called supplier. )IF there are any standard vendors we directly place an order.
If not IT dept will send R.F.Q(request for quotation) for the vendors and in turn vendors will send quotaion .
After they send the quotation IT dept will compare all the quotations selects one based on the price simulation ans select one like from HP and place an purchase order .(Commercial documents used to request vendors to supply a product or service in return for payment and providing specifications and quantities. )
after placing the purchase order goods recepit will be done based on the purchase order.(goods receipt will some times with out considering purchase order as Po will not be placed sometimes for urgent requirement)
->Then comes invoice verification.Invoice verification be sometimes before goods receipt also.
Tcodes
1)Purchase requisition ->ME51n
2)RFQ ->ME41

About Work flows

Hello All,
I would like to know when was work flows concept introduced and whats the purpose. Wiil the concept of work flow concept persists for long term. Any replacment for work flows.
Kind Regards,
Kumar.

Hi,
IIRC, Oracle Workflow was introduced in Oracle Applications release 10.7 (although there weren't many flows provided in those days). Standalone Workflow was available with the 8i database - since it used queues, 8.1.5 (Enterprise Edition) is probably the first really stable database that it would work with.
As for it's purpose, have a look at the Wikipedia entry for workflow, which gives some good overviews of workflow technology (rather than an Oracle specific view).
The concept of a workflow engine will be with us for a long time - however the technology within Oracle changed when Oracle bought Collaxa. Oracle Workflow has been removed from the 11g database (although there is a version available with Oracle Warehouse Builder), and will be replaced with the more expensive (rather that free!) BPEL product. BPEL will be the workflow engine of choice within Oracle Applications Fusion as well, but is still present in Release 12 of the eBusiness Suite.

Sharepoint Foundation Can not update External List by Work Flow

Hi
I try to update External List by other list Work Flow, in Sharepoint 2010 Foundation.
Here is the manual：
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/office/ff394479(v=office.14).aspx
But it fails , and the error message is “The
workflow could not update the item in the external data source. Make sure the user has permissions to access the external data source and update items.”
Is there some limited in Foundation?

http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/0bb9ef28-3614-4db2-b19f-dd81e8cc2d42/the-workflow-could-not-update-the-item-in-the-external-data-source?forum=sharepointgeneralprevious
With no Secure Store in Sharepoint what we ended up doing was creating a new external content type, adding a new connection and picking a connection type of .net type instead of sql. This means we needed to create a .net app as the go between but within
.net we had all the usual tools for connecting to sql without permission issues.

Triggering a sub work flow for multiple users at same time.

I have a scenario in which I have created sub workflow as an activity for approval process. This sub work flow should be triggered for multiple users at the same time and their decison is independent of each other.
This is like creating multipe instance of the same sub work flow and then the sub work flow runs indepedently as a new work flow for each of the approver and the process is completeded for approver independently.
How can this be achieved?

Tyr to do like this,
1. First include the subworkflow in the main workflow template.
2. Now include standard Block Step in the main workflow template.
3. In the block select the block type as ParForEach.
4. Before doing the 3rd point make sure that all the agents for whom you want whom you want to initiate the workflow, populate them in a Multiline conatiner element.
5. Once completing 3rd and 4th points open the block step under the tab ParallelProcessing assign the multiline container element name in the for e;g if the multi line container element name is COSTCENTER then do the binding like below. the conatiner element COSTCENTERLINE is created by default once you include the multi line conatiner element under parller processing tab.
&COSTCENTER[&_WF_PARFOREACH_INDEX&]& --------> &_COSTCENTER_LINE&
Now assign the agent of the subworkflow as COSTCENTERLINE , imean if suppose you have 3 entries in the internal table then three separate and for three different agents the workflow is instantiated.

Work flow block in credit memo request

Hi Friends,
I want to create a credit memo. I am creating the credit memo like: Sales order>Invoice>Credit memo request-->credit memo. Now my credit memo request is got created but is assigned with Workflow block at header level, now when I am going back in VA02 and saving it after removing the block at header level, but when I am again checking in VA02/VA03 work flow block is there. Now when I checked that in my workflow , it is in outbox and but I am not able to approve it becoz it is in outbox.
Where it is going for approval , it is only created by me and I don't see any approver field in credit memo request screen.
In the wrokflow outbox am getting that block CMR --as completed and get CMR approver as Error.
How can I remove the workflow block ? Any pointers.
Regards
Ashu
Edited by: ashutosh p on May 20, 2010 1:39 PM

Please check the Workflow log. By default whenever you create or act on any workflow workitem it will appear by default in your SAP Outbox.

Work flow

Dear all,
we need a workflow for creation of material master.
Say Basic data is created by MM dept.
then MRP & work Scheduling views are created by PP dept.,
then Purchase views are by MM again,
then inventory dept. creates storage locations,and f
inally finance dept creates Costing & Accounting views.
Our requirement is when over one dept. completes creation of their respective view, mail should get triggered to subsequent dept. to continue the work.
regards,
K.Kumaran.

Dear,
Use Tcode SWDD for work flow activities....Take help from your ABAP team...Give them the user Authorizations based upon your requirement.
Hope this will help you.
