Workflow applet in approval preview (shopping cart) changed in SRM 5.0

Hi,
we have upgrade from EBP 3.0 to SRM 5.0.
The approval preview in the shopping cart transactions (f.e. BBPSC03) now shows only the approval state (in grahpic mode), not the step description from the workflow definition.
In EBP 3.0 was showed the step description.
How can we change the applet output ?

Process Controlled Workflow - 1-step approval for shopping cart approval

Hi,
I have configured a one-level approval for SC (Process Controlled Workflow):
Object Type: BUS2121
Additional 1 level under schema: 3C_SC_600_000 (the last level is the automatic approval)
Level Type: Approval with completion
Eval ID: 0EV_SC_SL1
RR Name: RR_SPENDING_LIMIT_APPROVER
RR Param: USTONY.Y (I hardcoded it using my user ID, for the moment)
Task ID: 40007953 (I have checked, it's generalized as well)
Decision Type: Item-based decision for entire document
For PPOMA_BBP:
Under my org unit (Position):
Approval Limit: 1000
Output Limit: 1000
I didn't do any BADI implementations yet.
During creation of SC by other user, before "Order" the SC, the approval preview can show correctly that the Processor is as indicated in the config.
Once the SC is ordered, the whole step is gone and the event linkage becoming delinked (because there is error, and according to the config in SWEQADM).
However, I cannot find the workitem (no workitem generated) and SLG1 does not give any clue whatsoever.
I tried debugging method APPROVAL_LIMIT, and it seems fine as well.
Please help, what did I do wrong here?
Thanks,
Tony Y

Hi Sahil,
I even changed to first process level to:
Level Type: Approval
Eval ID: 0EV000
RR Name: RR_MANAGER
RR Param: (Blank)
Task ID: 40007953 (I have checked, it's generalized as well)
Decision Type: Decision for entire document
Under PPOMA_BBP:
I made myself as a head of the org unit with the role manager.
The requester is "Exclude" the role manager.
The agent can be determined now.
But the workitem ID is still cannot be generated. It's always no workitem generated.
Please everyone, any help?
Thanks in advance,
Tony

Purchase order created on approval of Shopping cart

Hi All,
We are using SRM 5.0 Support pack SAPKIBKT17.
When a shopping cart is approved, a purchase order is automatically created. And this purchase order is attached to an E-Mail and sent to the Vendor.
My query is that where is this E-Mail triggered? Is there a standard workflow task or any method is called?
Thanks,
Kiruthiga

Thank you Jason.
I put break points in all relevant sub routines in the function group you mentioned. And we approved the shopping cart. Logically, this should trigger a creation of PO. In our system there is no need for an approval for a PO. So the PO must automatically be sent to the vendor. In real, it did not stop at any breakpoint and the workflow WS10400051 (FinalProcNew) is triggered.
I can not understand at which point the E-Mail is triggered. Is my assumption that the E-Mail to vendor with PO as an attachment is triggered in this workflow (WS10400051)?
Please help me understand.
Regards,
Kiruthiga

2. If yes, please guide me the steps or classes and methods are used to do this.
Thanks in Advance.
Best Regards,

Hi Saravanan,
I am sorry for delayed response..
Requiremnet:
Need to add approvers manually to the shopping cart which is on awaiting approval status.
The code flow follows as below:
1. as the workflow already started for this shopping cart so we have interrupted the shopping cart with belwo method
          CALL METHOD /sapsrm/cl_wf_adv_facade=>interrupt_process
            EXPORTING
              iv_document_guid = lv_new_guid ( shopping cart guid)
2. instantiated the object for the class /sapsrn/cl_pdo_bo_sc_adv, to its constructor i have passed values work item id generated in above process.
3. added an approver manually to shopping cart using method of above said class /sapsrm/if_pdo_do_apv_ext~add_approver.
4. if i skip the execution of method /sapsrm/if_pdo_bo_sc~order, i am able see all the approvers added manually but the status is "In your Inbox"
5. if i execute the above said order method, all the approvers added manually are lost.
Question:
1. Please suggest me the sequence of methods called are correct?
2. As per my understanding complete workflow is restarting, so it is losing all the manual approvers if i am wrong suggest me, Is it not possible to have previously added manually added approvers even after ordering the cart?

Shopping cart-Requestor and Approver of Shopping cart shouldn't be same

Hi,
I have a requirement where the Requester and the Approver of the Shopping cart shouldn't be same.
This requirement needs to be met for online and offline approval both .
Secondly if the Requester is set as Approver Substitute then in that case also it should not allow the requester to approver the shopping cart as in this case he has become the approver too.

Hi,
Please check if DOC_CHANGE_BADI is called when approving SC.

Info record mandatory for shopping cart creation in SRM classic scneario

Hi Gurus,
We are creating shopping cart in our SRM 7.01 system in classic mode. We have not created any info record for the product category and vendor in the backend ECC system.
Do we need create an info record for the particular combination of material group/material and supplier in the ECC backend system so that the shopping cart in SRM classic scenario creates a PO directly in the system?
Thanks and regards,
Ranjan

Hi Sam,
Thanks for your update. So, what you mean that the SRM shopping cart with a direct vendor or contract can create a PO directly in the backend system even if the backend system does not have nay info record for the particular combination of the material and vendor.
Thanks and regards,
Ranjan

Shopping Cart change by approver is not updating in approval preview screen

We are using SRM 4.0 in ECS and have been noticing a problem with the approval preview on the shopping cart when the shopping cart is changed or rejected by one of the added approvers.
The shopping cart was created with multiple line items for materials and when the shopping cart was ordered it workflowed to the 1st approver that was added. He noticed that a price was wrong on one of the line items of the shopping and proceeded to change it and then approved the SC. The approval preview screen in the SC shows that it was approved but the preview does not show that it was forwarded to the next approver listed on the preview screen. However checking in the backend I'm showing the SC sitting in the inbox of the next approver stating: Your shopping cart 'MD D&C LL1 dvf Vetco-Subsea Wellhead Eq' was changed/rejected in part. Please check.
Why isn't the approval preview updating when the SC is rejected or changed?

hi,
This behaviour of the system is as follows , when the first approvers makes the changes and then approves the cart , it will go to the requestor of the shopping cart , and wether the workflow should restart --->
depends on the security level of the approver who is changing the cart -->
you can find the security level of the approver --> in the transaction SU01 ---> persononalization tab ---> key bbp_wfl_security
and the text you have mentioned --->
Your shopping cart 'MD D&C LL1 dvf Vetco-Subsea Wellhead Eq' was changed/rejected in part
this is for the requestor of the cart ---> this is mail which specifies that the first approver has partially approved the cart.

Change approver in shopping cart

Hello, i've been stuck on this for 1 week. i need a way( FM, method) to change an approver in a shopping cart ( not through the portal ) .
i've tried FM BBP_PDH_WFL_APPROVER_CHANGE . It does not work.

A workflow has been implemented ( BADI N STEPS). When you create your SC, the workflow is launched and it returns you your list of approvers from Z tables.
Problem is that the workflow is launched only during creation and modification of the SC.
The client was a tool that will allow them to change approvers automatically( that is they won't have to login SRM portal and change manually )
In the program, you will type the name of the current approver and the new one.
the program must replace the current approver by the new in the Z tables( this is ok) and must transfer all the shopping carts of the current approver to the inbox of the new approver +
you must find the new approver in the SC instead of the old one.

How to change an approver in shopping cart( by function module ) ?

Hello, i wish to change my approver ( not through the portal) but by function module ( or some other way) . Then, the creator of the SC will see the new approver in his cart details and also, when the new approver logs in, he will have the shopping cart in his list.
thx

Hi
you can use FM RH_UPDATE_SUBST_LIST_SERVER to substitute an approver from the backend
thanks

Approval of Shopping cart with limit items

Hi All,
We are using n-step item level approval (BADI) for shopping cart approval.
The approval process is working fine but when i create a shopping cart with limit items, the shopping cart goes withous approval.
The approval process is also working fine if i am including 1 limit item and one normal item.
Please let me know why is approval process not working for shopping carts with only limit items.
Regards,
Gaurav

Hello,
approving a shopping card without any workflow
is impossible in the Standard SRM case.
As there is no workflowlog anymore , it was deleted somehow. Please
ceck if you got processes where the workflow will be archived or deleted
after a while.
The question in my point of view is, why was there a workflow
without any approval steps ?
As i can see you are using only the workflow ws14500015 which
is a badi workflow. So the behaviour is controlled from your
badi,as all approvers come from the BADI.
If there is a automatic approving then the BADI brings not back
any approver and the setrelease method of the workflow is triggered
then immetiately to set the status to "released" = "approved".
To Do:
Check your BADI for Shopping Cards like the example one mentioned above.
Make sure that the workflow logs persist in the system for analysing
the processes and to get the correct approval preview.
regards,
Gaurav
