Workflow for appropriation requests

Hi friends,
This is regarding the approval process for appropriation requests.
The necessary Event linkage activation, partner determination procedure, appropriation request types, defining of approval levels for AR and other necessary configurations. When I am clicking the "for approval" button, the workflow gets started. But the corresponding person is not getting the mail in his inbox for approval.
Please give a solution asap.
regards
Pratap.V

Hi Sreenivas,
I already did this. Still the problem exists.
Frankly speaking, I know I am making a silly mistake somewhere because I have done all the major settings required. And I am finding it difficult to trace this small mistake. It will ne good if you can send some screen shots of all the configuration required for this.

Workflow for authorization requests

Hi
First of all
I don't normally work with SAP security and authorizations, so please tell me if my question is in wrong forum.
My question
Does any Workflow for authorization requests exist.
If I search SDN and google, I get lots of hits about authorization for workflow, but what I search is workflow for authorization requests.
Background
I often observe time wasting discussions about "who should have authorization for what", and I think this is caused by lack of well defined procedures describing the business rules and process for granting authorizations to a specific user.
Of course I understand the need for a more overall design and implementation of authorizations, but at the same time I observe, that a very common scenario is, that a new or existing employee is asked to take care of some business task or maybe a system maintenance task like customizing, but the user don't have the correct authorizations to perform this specific task.
So
Does any standard workflow exist for handling the process of requesting, approving and implementing authorizations?
Or is there a better approach to this problem?
Kind regards

Hi,
if you mean a request for new role assignment then there is no standard SAP workflow for this. You could implement. SAP offers other tools that can help you to achieve this. GRC suite has a tool for role approvals and it's super easy to implement approval workflow in SAP IdM. 3rd party IdM solutions have workflow capabilities as well. External tools such as SAP IdM allow you to perform role assignment over multiple SAP and non-SAP systems (there are other benefits as well).
If you mean request to add missing authorization object to already existing role then I don't think there is a need for workflow. In stable environment this should not happen very often and you still have to create/modify security role in DEV and then posh it through QA environment to production.
Cheers

Three level release for appropriation request (IMA11)

Hi
we are using IM for budget control and within IM, appropriation request for budget approval.
we have done the necessary configuration available in IM for budget release but still system not trigering work flow once appropriation request save. we want to sent the approval request is SAP inbox.
experts are requested to revert with steps and T Code to get approval reqest in SAP mail box.
Thanks & Regards

Hello,
Once you are sure that the configuration has been done perfectly, please check whether the system is publishing the event by going through the event log(SWEL). Before checking the event log, make sure that the event trace is on in the system by using the transaction SWELS. Once the event trace is on, save the request again and check for the event in the event log by using the tcode SWEL.
Once an event is publised in the system, use the same as the triggering event for the workflow template and then use the Sendmail step to send a mail to the SAP inbox.
Hope this will help.
Thanks,
Samson

Populating Persons involved for Appropriation Request

Hi All,
I am working on appropriation request workflow. When the user enters the planned value for AR, depending on the value and dept to which he belongs i need to pick up the concerned persons who will be involved in the approval process.
I am implementing BADI definition - APPREQUEST_UPDATE to identify the persons. But i am unable to fill the "Persons Involved Tab" as the badi has only import parameters and not export parameters.
As per my understanding if i fill the "Persons involved Tab" with the persons details SAP will send the workitems to all those involved.
Any inputs in this regard are highly appreciated
Thanks in advance,
Regards,
Lakshmi Narayana

Hi,
As per my understanding, Why dont you write your own custom method that populates the list of agents based on your own business logic(I mean on the initiator's dept) into the internal table ApprovalAgents and sent it back to workflow,
then everything should be taken care.
Add this step after of 'Determine approval givers involved' step of the standard template(WS00300022).
Hope this helps.

Workflow for Payment Request

Hello ,
Is there any standard workflow(s) for Payment Request Release procedure (T-Code : F871)?

Hi Anurag,
To search a workflow, go to t-code PFTC, select workflow template and give the workflow ID.
It would open the workflow template for you.
Also you can go to SWDD and enter the workflow ID. This would open the entire workflow and would display all the steps the workflow has in a graphical manner.
To find the workflow associated with Payment Request Release procedure (T-Code : F871), go to SWELS and activate the event trace. Now execute your transaction F871. Go to SWEL and see all the workflows triggered for Payment Request Release procedure (T-Code : F871) events. You can also find the workflow linkages in SWETYPV t-code.
Hope this helps!

AE 5.1 and 5.2 - Configuring parallel workflows for "Delete" Request type

Has anyone configured parallel workflows for the "Delete" Request type? I want to configure 1 for SAP and 1 for non-SAP applications, but have been unable to do it successfully.
The initiators I have created that do not work are:
1 - SAP initiator:
SAP application with "OR" condition
Request Type = Delete with "AND" condition
2 - Non-SAP initiator:
Non SAP application 1 with "OR" condition
Non SAP application 2 with "OR" condition
Non SAP application 3 with "OR" condition
Request Type = Delete with "AND" condition
When I create a request to Delete a user with SAP app and Non SAP app I get the error: "Error in creating request. Multiple Initiators, [NON SAP DELETE, SAP DELETE] Found."
Based on what I am reading on p. 58 of the AE52ConfigGuide.pdf, this should be possible to do. Does anyone have any suggestions?

This is my understanding.,
A request cannot have more than one initiator. You cannot trigger multiple initiators for one single request. In your case both attributes SAP & Non SAP application are given with OR condition which makes both the initiators alike. As mentioned in the documentation the request for deletion can be made to happen in both SAP & Non SAP application by having forked path (for this the initiator should be OR Application SAP OR Non SAP Application AND Request Type Delete). Given the other option then it should have different initiator for SAP and Non SAP applications by giving them with AND condition.

Reporting options for Appropriation Request

Hi Srinivas,
I have some Questions regarding the above issue...
1. Transaction IMR4 appears to show only the current status of an appropriation request. Is it possible to see the sign off history of the appropriation request within that (or the other IMR) transaction?
2. Whether the 3 tables that you have specified can be queried for the sign off details?
IMAK (Appr. Request)
JEST (IQ* - Status)
TJ02T (Text for Status)
3. How do the IMR* transactions relate to the information contained in the IMA11 and IMA12 transactions?
Please provide me the answers.
Thanks,
Jeevan.

How to find the workflow for Change Request for the PO's

Hi All,
We have a PO which is pending and we can't receipt it again nor make payment on this. After checking the Approval history for that PO we found that the change request has been made. The change request was to change the amount to be paid to R39196 instead of R58237.00. We don't know where to check the workflow for the change request to identify the cause.
what i need to know is how to find the workflow for that change request? The other workflows can be checked using the po_header_id for the PO's but i am confused with the change request workflow
Your input will be highly appreciated.
Thanks in advance

For 11.5.10.2 run this query to determine the keys to search on:
Select wf_item_type, wf_item_key from APPS.po_change_requests where document_type = 'PO' and Document_num = 'put-PO-number-here'
Then use the keys returned by the query to look up the Workflow in
Workflow Administrator Web Applications / Administrator Workflow / Status Monitor
Search using the results returned in fields "Type Internal Name" and "Item Key" in Status Monitor
The query for change requests on a specific Requisition would be:
Select wf_item_type, wf_item_key from APPS.po_change_requests where document_type = 'REQ' and Document_num = 'put-Req-number-here'

Auto Approval Workflow for leave request Management.

Hi Guru's,
I am working on leave request Workflow i.e WS12300111.
Now i have to implement the auto approval of workitem if the approver doesnt take any action in 3days.
1. i have implemented deadline monitoring i.e in Latest end tab
refer date/time :- Expression Date : %DATUM% Time : %UZEIT% 3 days Action : Modeled Display test
Outcome : Reminder Mail
In outcome tab i have activated Processing obsolete.
i have created an activity if the deadline is reached so that it should auto approve the workitem.
in that activity i have created a copy of class CL_PT_REQ_WF_ATTRIBS created 1 method auto_approve. and used function module PT_ARQ_REQUEST_EXECUTE so that it will change the status from SENT to APPROVE.
But when i apply leave in portal , workflow starts but it doesnt reach to branch auto approve after the deadline is reached.
Please suggest is the deadline monitoring implemented correctly or not .
whether the auto approve method used is correct or not
or there is another solution to this
I have checked the SWU3 setting and it is green.
Please Advise
Thanks in Advance

Workflow for Purchase request

Hi all,
I would be glad, if someone can let me know weather SAP B1 9.0 supports purchase request object in Workflow.
If yes let me know the process.

Neslin

Hi Aarya,
Check whether approver 1 can release PR for approver 2 and approver 3 with normal ME54N transaction. If yes, then its an issue of authorization.
Check out the authorization object M_EINK_FRG in user profile in this case. I think the authorization for release codes assigned to approver 2 and 3 is given to approver 1.

Workitem Lock problem in workflow for leave request

Hi Experts,
I am facing the strange problem in the workflow of the leave request.
We have implemented the two level approval for workflow. For the first level approval we have created custom WebDynpro application where approver approves the request and selects 2nd approver for the workflow. Here we are calling method initiate_state_transition of class/interface if_pt_req_request to change the status of workflow from sent to approved in custom WebDynpro application .
For the second level approval we are using standard approval application.
When 1st approver approves the request, workflow moves to next task, but this task gives error "Work item 000000605682 locked by user SD21690 (enqueue error)".
I am not getting why this is happening?
Could you please help me.
Thanks
Sameer

Hi
As you have developed a custom application for first level approver where the status of record is being changed from sent to approved.
please check what is the workitem number that is initiated. If its 605682 and the first approver is SD21690 then please make sure you release that workitem in your webdynpro application.
You must have customized the workflow to add the first approver step. Where you would be mentioning the name of the custom application in SWFVISU against your custom task.
The problem is with the workflow so please check the workflow. Your first approer is not releasing the workitem post approval and that is the reason for lock.
Vivek - this lock is not enque lock its a workitem lock.
Please revert with further questions if required.
thank you
barin
