Workflow Approval Notification in Sales Aggrement of Order Mgmt R12

Hi All,
In Sales Aggrement form in Order Mgmt(R12), after submitting the draft, Approval Notification is not firing.
When checked in the workflow status, it is being directed as 'Not Eligible' and ending the process. I have checked in the package 'OE_APPROVALS_WF.Initiate_Approval' the varibale Role is getting null value.
Can anyone let me know what exactly does this mean. how can i see/fire the notifications.
Regards,
RR

Hi All,
The issue is resolved. I have changed the Approval in Transaction Types from Fullfilment to Negotiation.
Regards,
RR

Program to send Workflow Approval Notifications to Outlook (RSWUWFMLEC)

Hi,
We recently upgraded from SRM 4.0 to 7.0. We used RSWUWFMLEC to extract approval work items and send email notifications to Outlook. Can we use same RSWUWFMLEC or is there a different program/process for this in SRM 7.0. For some reason RSWUWFMLEC is not working for SRM 7.0 approval work items.
Thank You
Vineela

Hello Vineela,
Check SAP help for SRM 7.0 release regarding offline approval:

Approval Notification through pl/sql

Hi,
We have a requirement to send the workflow approval notification through pl/sql.
Please share which API needs to be used.
thanks,
Swathi

There is no standard API with Oracle's default supplied PL/SQL packages that supports workflow.
So I read this question as how IPC (Inter Process Communication) processing can be done in Oracle.
There are a number of methods. You can use Advance Queues - queue a message to be de-queued and consumed by the message queue owner process. You can simply insert into a table and commit - and have a another process reading this table and process the events inserted into the table. You can create a database pipe between processes. You can submit a background job process and instruct it to perform the notification processing for you.
The most appropriate method depends entirely on the requirements that need to be met, and problem to solve.

How to implement Approval hierarchy for Sales Order in Order Management.

Hi,
We need approval process for sale orders in Order Management module. Currently we are using credit HOLD option for orders at shipping level. The issue we are facing now is we can not cancel those orders who contains Service Line item in it while on HOLD. The restriction raised at the time of cancelling the order that the Line Item is "fulfilled". Service line item's get fulfilled.
Is that any other possibility to have Approval hierarchy for Sales Orders in Order Management Module? If it is possible can anybody share the related document or implementation guide?
Thanks with anticipation in advance.
Many Regards

I copied the standard order header workflow and the "Book Order, Manual" workflow to custom workflows. I then modified the "Book Order, Manual" workflow to put another completely custom workflow (call this "Approvals") in between the "Book Eligible" and "Book" steps.
The "Approvals" step assessed the sales order, changed the order header to the pending approval flow_status_code, and sent out the appropriate notifications. The "Approvals" step returned a Complete/Incomplete where complete would proceed to "Book" and incomplete would go back to "Book Eligible." The new workflow was then assigned to the order type needed. I don't still have access to that environment (job change) or I would give more definite instructions.

Purchase order approval notification as per project

I want to send notification to approve purchase orders. I can do this by configuring purchase order release strategy. But I want to identify the approver as per project.
Purchase order has project number in account assignment tab.
Can I relate this in workflow so that notification will be sent to project manager as per assignment in purchase order ?

Hello Sachin,
Standard SAP forms pick up the delivery address that was determined in the Purchase Order line. Normally this is either the Plant address or, if maintained, the storage location address. The storage location address can be maintained in customizing under "Enterprise structure - Definition - Materials Management - Maintain Storage Location".
The form checks the delivery addresses on the different PO lines. If these are all the same, it displays the address in the document header. If not, then it displays this per line item. If the printout does not show the PO line delivery address from the plant or storage location, the logic in the form is probably different from standard SAP logic. In this case, you should look for solving this in the Form, in combination with the standar SAP logic for determining the delivery address in the Purchase Order.

Purchase Order Approval Notifications and Multiple Currencies

All,
If I have a user who creates a requisition in EUR and then submits the requisition for approval to someone who has a default currency of USD, the workflow notification will show the value of the requisition in both EUR and USD. This is because the ICX: Preferred Currency profile option has been set at the user level.
However, this does not work for purchase order approval notifications, just requisitions. This makes my management unhappy. Oracle Support indicates this is an enhancement request. However, I have a difficult time believing there is not something in the Oracle apps that allows this functionality in the PO Notification. We are on 11.5.10.2.
Many thanks,
Jeremy

What is order against workflow approval ?

what is order against workflow approval ?
How to configure ?
Thanking you.

Hi there,
I am not sure if it is necessarily a bug, but its a matter of understanding all of the settings needed. I had the same problems for a while but after a fair bit of trial and error have found some workable settings.
It probably has more to do with the export settings rather than what viewer options have selected (I don't think that viewer settings affect your export).
What program are you using to export?
I am using compressor to export with aspect ration set to automatic 16:9. Then use DVDSP with the track set to 16:9 letterbox, it seems to export to DVD with the correct aspect ratio that way.
I am having trouble with the image strobing, looks like some kind of interlacing problem, but at least I have got it in the right aspect ratio.
Its typical video, solve one problem and it just creates another.
I am yet to find the absolute best workflow.
In response to Andy above, the original letterboxed footage probably did have something to do with the downconverting settings on the camera, as when I import without downconverting it does not letterbox. In the HDR-HC1 there is an option in the menu called "TV Type" with options of 4:3 or 16:9. I was reviewing my footage on a 4:3 television so I most likely had it set to 4:3 which created the letterboxing in the viewer when I then imported the footage.
Importing the footage in HDV solves the issue of aspect ratio, but creates a new problem with the image strobing.
I hope this was some kind of help to you.

Cereation of serivce notification from sales order

hi friends is there a way to create a service notification from sales order, using any means such as follow up action, etc

Hi, thanks for replying to my post.
This essentially involves the "selling" of a very technical installation of a product which is largley carried out remotely. The current process involves a rather complex departmental chain for the processing (customer care taking a customer call and logging a notification, Techincal dept further processing notification, dispatch dept raising related service order and scheduling etc). To facilitate this we have heavily customised the Notification through the use of "actions" & the action box and would like to continue to utilise much of this functrionality to drive the process flow. In any case, we would later need to create a Notification to record casue, activity, object code etc etc.
Therefore, I prefer to have the Notification in place from the start, even if simply created at same time as service order.
I hope this clarifies our need.
Any suggestions?
Regards
Keith

Notification data copy to Service orders created from sales order.

Hi,
In our business scenario, we are creating sales order from service notification & service order from sales order. Document flow will be Service Notification -> Sales Order -> Service Order.
Here user wants that Notification data to be copied to service order. This is possible when we create service order directly from notification. Buit in our case we are not creating service order directly from Notification, we are creating service order from sales order. in this case notifiationdata is not getting copied to service order.
Our ABAPer's are also tried to find the exit or enhancement points, but not able to find any thing for this requirement.
Pl. suggest, how to do it.
Thank you in advance.

The only way I have seen to do this kind of billing is using Resource Related Billing (RRB) and customizing of the Dynamic Item Processer Profile (DIP Profile)
It is not exactly like a simple flow of Notification > Sales Order > Service order (with all of the problems of how to copy notification data through to Service order) but might be a possible solution for you ?

hi all,
so anyone came across any BAPI or FM that creates Orders from Notification.
My requirement is similar to "Order Explode" functionality in WPS1 transaction (MEB). For two notificaitons, if the task list having the same operation and same type, then a single order gets created.
I want to know whether any FM/ BAPI is available that creates Order in reference to Notification. I just want to simulate Order creation.
Waiting for reply.

Hi CLAUDIA,
This has to be done through user query approval. However, since I don't have similar environment to try, you may start to create your own query first.

Customize PO Approval Notification OA page

Hi
I am trying to customize PO Approval Notification. I want to add more attributes to the &PO_LINE_DETAILS. how to do it. presently. I made change in the workflow but it doesnt reflect on the page.
Purchase Order Lines
Line Item Number Rev. Item Description UOM Quantity Unit Price Line Amount
Want to add Cost center, Promised date columns to this table.
Please let me know how to do it.
Thanks

Find the PO OAF embedded region in the notification. Then you need to personalize that region and add your required columns assuming the attached VO has those values. Otherwise you might have to do VO substitution also.

Hi
It comes from OSS Note ->
Note 983128 - Approval WF Fragment Has No User Assignment
In BADI BBP_CHNG_AGNT_GET we were setting the agent assignment to 'X' instead of 'G' (general task).
Also, Try this. Assign agent for task TS10008126. Don't forget to generate it.
If all your task are classified as general, this is a bug in a FM (SRM5, SP4). No idea if a note exist for this but check source of function BBP_PDH_WFL_APP_ASSIGNTYPE_GET, the task type (WF, TS) is hard coded, you may want to change it )

Trigger email to outlook for PM approved notifications

Hello Guys,
I have a requirement to trigger email to outlook for approved notifications. Wheneever there is a PM notification created by any employee, it has to go to approval to his supervisor and once he is approved, the maintenance can create a WO to proceed. How would I acheive this. I know it can be done thru workflow but wanted to check whether I can leverage extended notifications for this function. If yes, what would be the steps. I did configured the extended notifications and set up the background job SWN_SELSEN but nothing has been triggered. How do system know to pick the pending notifications from IW29 ? is it from variant ? please help me to figure out the right way of doing this.
Mahee.

It's not an standard option, you should develop an ABAP function to send email according the User Status and System Status changes defined for the work orders. You should start with status validations in work orders using tables JEST, TJ30T and TJ02T, starting from AUFK-OBJNR. And for Notifications with table QMEL. Identify a user exit and use this code to send the email:
Send mail via SAP ABAP Code - Code Gallery - SCN Wiki
Additionally, Workflow provides a more complex functionality for this.
