Workflow authorization for PS

Hello SAPians,
I am looking for some information regarding a workflow which is creting issue.
Issue is:
workflow has been created and this is the information of that.
**''Description**
**This workflow is triggered when a user attempts the release of an activity within a network contained in a project in the PS Module.**
**The workflow consists of three different authorization levels. All three levels must approve the release of the activity in order for this action to be available to the initiating user to carry out. If all three authorizations are granted, then the initiating user receives notification of this and is then allowed to release the activity in the corresponding transaction.**
**Furthermore, if an authorization fails to be given, the initiating user and any users corresponding to previous levels of authorization receive a notification that authorization has not been granted to release the activity.''**
But that workflow for authorization is wrongly sent to the wrong person who is not involved in that type of workflows.
Please let me know where I can check this?
Please let me know how I can proceed further in this regard. .what could be a solution for this?Please let me know the path for configuring this approval process route.
Please let me know if you need any information.
Regards

Hello,
I am not much aware of the workflow.Can you please let me know where I can check the table for configuring the user's.
Please let me know the Table and configuration details where I can check the PS Configurations and data relating to workflows for PS.
Thanks for your time in checking the issue.

Workflow WS14000030 for vendor approval from OPI

Hi,
 The task TS14007942(approve creation of vendor) is included in the workflow WS14000030(Vendor One-Step Approval). Also included the agent assignment (Rule 00000157 for Manager).
It is given in help.sap.com as below ..
A vendor that has been transferred to the EBP System via OPI provisionally receives the status locked (all documents containing this vendor temporarily lose their validity). The system now checks the authorization of the purchaser / requester relating to transaction BBPMAININT:
· If the purchaser / requester possesses the change authorization, the 0-step approval workflow WS14000043 starts and the vendor is released immediately.
Depending on the Customizing settings, a workflow notification follows.
· If the purchaser / requester does not possess the change authorization, the 1-step approval workflow WS14000030 starts and the manager of the purchasers purchasing organization receives a work item with a request to approve or reject it.
When I checked the same,
 The Transaction 'BBPMAININT' is under the package 'BBP_BUPA'. There is only one authorization object under this package by name 'BBP_BUYER'.
 The documentation says "The object consists only of the field Activity.The activity has only one variant, 70 for 'Administration'; in other words: an 'All or nothing' as far as the data of the purchasing company is concerned".
can anyone help me in running the workflow??? How can I restrict the authorization for the transaction BBPMAININT.
Thanx,
Sivagami.R

Hi
Please try this ->
You have to assign authorization for changing shopping carts during the approval process. This is controlled by means of a role-based attribute BBP_WFL_SECURITY, and is set in the transaction PFCG on the Personalization tab page. There are four possible levels of authorization:
1) High: Workflow is never restarted.
2) Medium: Workflow is restarted based on start conditions.
3) Low: Workflow is always started.
4) No: No changes to the shopping cart allowed during approval.
Please refer to these links.

Authorizations for document management

Hi,
I'm trying to figure out what every authorization means and which effects it has...
I created a new user, gave him all the necessary authorizations to use certain transactions in Document management by making a new role/profile for him
After trying everything out, I still have a few questions:
- with Authorization for change object link (C_DRAD_OBJ)I have the following properties:
Activity: change, display
document type: DRM-DRM
linked SAP object: *
document status: *
I know how to display my object link, but how can I change it? Do they mean with changing the object link, the creating of long text for the link or is there more to it?
- with authorization for document access (C_DRAW_DOK), I can't figure out what the options "Display Application archive" and "Change application archive" mean. Which effect does it have when I choose them? Where do I consult the application archive? What is the application archive? => SOLVED
- Do I also have to give the authorization "Display" when I want to give the authorization to delete something? How can I delete a document info record without displaying it? =>SOLVED
- With "Status dependent authorizations for documents" (C_DRAW_TCS) what do the following options do?
 *change application start (which difference with change?)=>SOLVED
display application start (which difference with display)=>SOLVED
 *request
 *display archive =>SOLVED
 *change archive=>SOLVED
I know it are a lot of questions but I'm making documentation on the authorization profiles of document management and when I figured those few last things out, I can share my documentation with the rest of you...

Good morning,
Havent been watching this thread for some time now, so please shout if you do have any questions.
Just a quick note on deleting documents:
Setting the deletion indicator will simply mark the DIR for deletion, but, it will still be on the dB.
After you have set the DIR for deletion, you need to run the program "MCDOKDEL", which has a test mode and a real mode.
This program will physically delete the documents that you have marked for deletion.

Fix authorizations for the budget approval flow (internal orders)

Hi,
I need to fix the authorizations for the budget approval flow.
What do I need to take into account?
Thank you.
Kind regards,
Linda

(1) Each appropriation request should be attached to an investment program (leaf) position. To update the approved budget on the investment program from time to time, you should
    - make a plan rollup from the appropriation requests to the program positions via IM34 (use an appropriate status selection profile on the initial screen of IM34 and select appropriation requests only to make sure that
       > only appropriation requests
       > with status 'Approved' are taken into account),
    - To budget the investment program via IM32, set view 'Planned total' (Menu: 'Views -> Planned total') and copy this view, which contains the latest approved budget amounts, to the "real" budget (Menu: 'Edit -> Select -> Select all' and then 'Edit -> Copy view').
(2) You can even generate an order from the appropriation request that enherits the appropriation requests plan value. For details see SAP Library (Menu: 'Help -> SAP Library'), path 'Financials -> IM Investment Management -> Appropriation Requests -> Replacement by a measure for implementation'. Analogously to step (1), you can also take over the orders 'Planned total' view into the orders budget via txn IM52.
If you strictly limit the authorisations to execute IM34, IM32 and IM52 as pointed out in steps (1) and (2) to a handful of people who execute these functions as pointed out above (withoud adding or removing budget arbitrarily, of course), the budgeting process
really focusses on planning/approving appropriation requests which is fully accompanied by the approval workflow.
Hope above helps you.

Workflow retrigger for shopping cart

Hi All,
What is the procedure to retrigger workflow manually for shopping cart?and what the precautuions to be taken when retriggering workflow for SC.
Thank you
Regards,
Yshu

Hi,
What is your business scenario, you can trigger the workflow again when you change the shopping cart once it is created.
This can be:
1) When users create a shop, hold and then on a later date they want to change the shop and complete the action.
2) When the shopping cart is created always the employees need to have the change functionality till the approval takes place for that particular shopping cart.
This can be achieved by using the different parameters in the BBP_WFL_SECURITY in the Personalization tab in the SU01 , Personalization Object Key and the authorization level 0,1,2,3,4
Best regards,

Workflow Authorization Modules

Can anyone recommend any good sites or papers or anything on creating WorkFlow Authorization models? We're building a web-based workflow application and are exploring different methods of building a flexible authorization system for different user's, roles, actions and tasks. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi psummers8,
Why should you not treat this 'Authorization' only? And put in the Workflow related critirieons into the Authorization module. Thereby you may take advantage of the generic standards associated with 'Authorization'. Besides, you can also use the current technologies, tools for web based security for Confientiality and Authentication.
Have a look at http://www.wfmc.org/.

Hi,
Please read rules of engagement before posting.
Step 1: Finding An Answer
Rule number one: Try to find the answer first. There are tons of resources out there, show that you have tried to find the answer. A question that shows that the person is willing to try and help themselves is more likely to be answered than one which simply demands information. Tell us what you have done to try and solve the problem yourself - often we can learn from that too!
Search the forums, the articles, the blog posts and the Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) in the Wiki for your topic.
Step 2: Asking Your Question
Once you have verified that no resources are available for solving your problem, ask your question. Do the following:
- Use a Good Subject Line
The subject header is your golden opportunity to attract qualified experts' attention in around 50 characters or less. Don't waste it on babble like "Workflow question". We all have busy jobs, often we just skim through the list headings and read those that interest us. Also, DO NOT reply to an unrelated post to ask a different question. This confuses those reading the thread and may lose people that would be interested in your question. Always start a new topic with a new mail.
Bad subject: Urgent problem with workflow
Good subject: Error after transport: "Inconsistent workflow definition"
Do not use words in capital letters and any of the words: urgent, quickly, burning, etc in your message. Especially not in the title! This just irritates and does not help you get to your goal. From our side, we definitely do not answer faster when we see these words.
The same goes for such things as ??? or !!! in appends. In the English language one ? or ! is sufficient to terminate a sentence.

Authorization for opening & Closing posting periods - OB52

Hi,
Is there any way to set authorization for opening & closing of posting periods in OB52?
My scenario:
I have 2 company codes - A & B assigned to 2 different posting period variant - say PPA & PPB.
The user belonging to CoCd A should not be able to open/close posting period of CoCd B and vice versa.
Is this possible through any authorization settings?
Request your help on this.
Regards,
Sridevi

Hi Sridevi
Please go through the following:
You can assign authorization groups for permitted posting periods. This means that, for example, some posting periods can only be opened for particular users within monthly or annual closing. You can only assign the authorization group at document header level and it only affects period 1. The authorization object is called F_BKPF_BUP (Accounting document: Authorizations for posting periods). Read the corresponding chapter on "User maintenance" in the "Assigning authorizations" topic.
"User maintenance"
Due to the modular authorization concept of the system, you can define authorization profiles which are tailored to the workplace of your employees. You can, for example, assign authorization to a workplace in the Accounts Receivable, Accounts Payable or General Ledger Accounting areas.
By assigning authorizations you define which business-related objects your employees are allowed to process and which editing functions are allowed.
In the following activities for authorization management, you must carry out the following for employees who are to work with the system:
Assign authorizations
The authorizations are assigned by specifying permitted values for the pre-defined objects.
Define profiles
In the SAP system, authorizations are grouped together in workplace profiles. Therefore one or more profiles must be allocated to the individual employee in the master record.
I hope this helps.

Authorizations for materials and material groups

Hello experts,
Is it possible to limit the authorization to make purchase requerisiton of some materials or material groups depending on the user?
I heard that it is possible be able to update some materials using the authorization M_MATE_MAT and including them in the material master, material group and user. But this also works for the creation of purchasing documents (PR,PO,RFQ,...)? Do I have to include this authorization for all the materials? If they do not have I understand that works for every people.
Thanks in advance for your help
Best regards,

Hi Madii,
actually Authorization works at the object level, i.s if you have provided the authorization for the user to makePR with certain Material Grp, then if you dont define that grp in the PO role, but still user will get the authorization from the PR role.
why you want to allow the user to make the PR of certain Mtrl Grp for which he should not be making the PO.
or let a different Body take care of the other mtrl Grp.
Hope it helps.

Yawar Khan
