Work Order Release Approval workflow

Hi All,
I am trying to setup Work Order Release Approval workflow. I have set its AME using supervisory level as the action type. When I tried set work order status, I had to set the department as I set department attribute as its AME condition, and work order status changed into Release - Pending and form become disable.
Where can the supervisor make his/her approval to relese the pending status?
I tried the Maintenance Super User page, but it can only review.
Any help is greatly apprecaited.
Thank you,
Iqbal

PM Work Order release date.

Hi guys,
Where to find the work order release date? In the Header Data, there is no field mentioning about release date. There are only Basic Start/End Date and Malfunction Start/End date.
Thank You

Hi Rio,
Generally that basic start date is date which order is going to be released,
In Application tool bar There is a "release" button whenever that button is clicked that order is released with the date which is basic start date there is no special space for release order date.

Purchase order release strategy Workflow not working

Hi All,
I am working on PO Approval release strategy and it is not working fine . The release strategy set up is configured by my functional consultant . I just copied the standard workflow template WS20000075 and making changes to my custom workflow template . When ever po is created an event "RELEASESTEPCREATED" get triggered and the first approver receives an workitem and when he approves it goes to Second Approver and it is working fine . But when rejected then a notification email goes to initiator . Now when an initiator login into ME22N and made any changes ( even material text change ) in it then again "RELEASESTEPCREATED" event getting triggered . But I need to trigger my workflow only when there is change in PO Net value .
Kindly help me how to achieve this functionality .
Thanks and regards
Dilip

Hi Vikram,
There is already an existing entry for BUS2012 with event CHANGED against the change doc EINKBELEG .
Acutlly when login as initiator and try to change PO through ME22N here are my observations :
case 1: When Buyer click on " Cancel Reject " button and do any changes ( even text change ) then RELEASESTEPCREATED and CHANGED events are triggering . But since the event linkaged is set to RELEASESTEPCREATED workflow get restarted again.
Even the CHANGE event does'nt have 'RELEASECODE' as parameter to restart workflow .
Case 2: When Buyer doesn't click on " Cancel Rejection" buttion and do any changes then only CHANGE event get triggered
which do nothing since there is no event linkage .
Is to click on " Cancel Reject" button mandatory ? . But even though we make " Cancel Reject" as Button mandatory then RELEASESTEPCREATED Button triggering for any change but we need to trigger it for only net Value change .
Thanks and regards,.

EAM OSP: How to Disable Requisition Import AutoRun on Work Order Release?

Hi,
We want to create Purchase Requisition for OSP resource Items from eAM Work Orders by manually running Requisition Import request from purchasing. But as work order is released Import Requisition is auto run and requisition created. Is there any parameter or profile option to stop this request from auto run on release? Kindly guide.
Regards,
Syed Mustafa Arshad

Hi Hrishi,
Thank your for your response.
The second option you specified Operation is used in case of Oracle Discrete Manufacturing not for EAM. It is used when you want to start requisition as Item is moved from one operation to next so it cannot be used in case of EAM.
We wanted it because our requirement was to generate requisition in incomplete status and with requisition import automatically parameter is passed as "Yes" for Workflow and requisition is generated in Approved Status. There is a patch but it was not working fine with 12.1.3 and the issue is on SR and we needed a work around urgently. But now a new patch was provided and it seems our issue is resolved now and now Workflow parameter is passed as "No".
And about requisition creation time, I came to know after raising service request that it is standard functionality and requisition import cannot be delayed to run it later manually.
Thank again for your response.
Best Regards,
Syed Mustafa Arshad

Order release approval

Dear
Just have the idea about below one. We need the maintenance order approval based on plan cost.
For this we created Class type 032. The created class is assigned there. In class we referred the PMCO table and value is above one dollar.
Now the thing is how to make this effect in order level. Even i cant assign to the equipments,functional location. Also there is no standard t Code is available for order release like PR.
Thenna

hi all,
find the solution for planned cost,maintenance acitivity types,etc
1.create ct04characteristicand maintain values 10k,20kof some range if your going to call permits on planning cost here in additional tab mention the structure CSEVPERMIT & any field names
ILART-Maintenance activity type
PKOSTEN for planning cost
USER4 for estimated cost
IKOSTEN for actual cost.
2.Create permit class and put the charc in permit class and for class type 049 maintain classification status in IMG.[Cross application components--> classification system->classes---->maintain object types and object keys(here plz read the note and maintain status for class type 049).
3.Create permits using IPMD and put category , order status and goto classification and maintain permit class and select particular charc value for that permit.
By the above process respective permits assume that you have given based on planned cost of the orderget automatically assigned to the order,now you can maintain authorisation for the permit for issuing
Hope this might have met you requirement.
Plz try the same and let me know if you have any querries or no .If working give up points'''

Pass Work Order attachments to Workflow container

Hi experts,
I have a question concerning passing attachments from Work Order to Workflow(or Task) container.
There are several files attached to Work Order in TCode IW32.
The files are attached directly and are saved on SAP server. Not via URL.
I have to send email in Workflow with these files attached to email, i.e. to pass them to workflow or task container.
If I use BO SOFM I need to get the path where the files are saved on SAP server.
How can I add these files as attachments to email?
Thank you.
Nina

Hi,
Add a step in the workflow to add the attachment befer sending mail step.
Two thing you need to know.
1. Workflow workitem id
2. attachment name and location.
Now first upload the attchment to workitem id through FM SAP_WAPI_ATTACHMENT_ADD.
Then make the binding between the workflow container and mail step for &_ATTACH_OBJECTS&.
after this attachment will be available in the mail.
Thanks and regards,
SNJY

Work Order Release related issue in PM

Hi Experts,
I am using the WorkOrderRelease template in BLS to release the work order in PM.After creating transaction in BLS , I created Query Template for the same.
Now In both BLS as well as in Query template its working fine.
But when i am trying to create the Display template for the same, i am not able to retrieve column names from OutputXML file automatically once query template is selected .
Please guide me.
Saumil

Hi Jamie,
ya i also know that it returns only one coulmn ' Message ' as output but thats the only field which will tell the status of releasing action like whether my Order is released or it is already been previously released or there are some other errors. So because of this i need to display that column for which i am not able to create the display template.
Please suggest.
Thanks & Regards

Purchase Order Release Strategy Workflow

Dear SDNers,
I created a custom workflow to trigger workflow when PO created. This workflow send mails to portal for approval to approve the release stratagies of purchase order.
From portal side its working fine. Once the approval approves, user decision step going to next level. every thing is fine from portal side.
But if they go for R3 side to release PO at ME29N, here facing probelm
Suppose, Workitem is waiting at level1. Approver1 recieves used decission step at portal. But by logging into R3 system and release PO, the workitem which is at approver1's inbox has to vanish from his inbox. Its not happening now.
What I hav to do. Kindly let me knwo.
Thanks in advance,
Regards,
Venkat

Hi Venkat,
Two things you should change here:
1. The Event that triggers your workflow should be BUS2012(RELEASESTEPCREATED). This event occurs when a release strategy is activated for a PO due to various reasons.
2. You workflow should have a 1 : 2 fork . One path (fork path) should follow the User Decision path using a portal and the other should be a asynchronous workitem with the following 3 as terminating events:
      BUS2012         RELEASED
      BUS2012         RESET
      BUS2012         SIGNIFICANTLYCHANGED
The workitem can be with or without agent.
This should help you.
Regards
Gautam

Purchase Order release strategy -- Workflow related

Hi All,
We have a scenario where in the PO's are subject to Release Strategy with 4 levels based on the Value of the PO.
My requirement is to .........
1) Trigger a workflow once the PO is fully released. (Final approver has released), send a copy of the PO spool to the ID of the person who has created the PO.
2) Normally the spool is saved in the ID of the person who has done the final release.
Please suggest if this is possible thru workflow and how is this to be configured ?

Purchase order release stratergy Workflow

Hi All,
I am using SAP standard PO rel. workflow WS200000075 using BO BUS2012.
At the first Activity - task(TS20000166) it determines Agent(receiver of workitem for releasing), through default rule(20000027), at simulation of rule it determines agent correctly, but its not doing so while we create purchase order.
At event trace I am getting error - Import Container contains error
My Question is
1. Do I have to map determined agent through Default rule to workflow container using a variable???
2. Am I missing something in the workflow to map to any container?
Kindly advise
-Indrajit

Hello
I'm using the BUS2012 Object type in workflow task but in simulation the task run correct but in the transaction when modify a purchase orden the task send an error...
maybe the error is similar...did you solve this problem?..
Thanks!

Material apporval after work order release

Dears
Many times our PM team requires material after relase also
But as per std sap practise if we save this material even after release then reservation creates
can you guide me how we can send the extra material for apporval again after release
Regards
Ingole chandrashekhar

Dear Pete
It is that when order intially planned apporved then afterwords aome material is required for same work carried out
Again when planner can change the order he adds new material in it without apporval of his senior since then he saves the order it creates reservation from order even after release
How to avoid this situtation

Sales Order Line Approval Workflow

Hi All,
I have 2 scenarios which I need to implement.
1. When New Sales Order created with couple of Sales Order Lines. When User Book the Order at that time System should Book the Order but Line status should not be change to "Awaiting Shipping". Based on some logic, a Notification should go the Approver to approve the Sales Order Lines. When he approves then Line status should change to 'Awaiting Shipping'.
2. If the Line is Approved and in 'Awaiting Shipping' status and the user updated the Quantity or any other field then again System should send a notification to the approver to approve the modified Line (almost same logic like PO).
And how can I restrict a particular user to book the order?
Any idea how can I implement the above scenarios.
Regards,
Arsalan

Hi,
It is possible in header of sales order while booked form enter stage it's go in approve process.
