Workflow for Employees (HXCEMP) customization

Hello all,
I have customized process 'Apply Rules and Notify Approvers' in a copy of HXCEMP and now i want to upload it to the server and use it instead of the orginal.
Is there a way i can setup or configure the copy of HXCEMP and use it instead of the original?
Tnx in advance,
Ronald

OS HP-UX Titanium
DB 11g
EBS R12.1.2
More specific: i know how i can upload the customized workflow. What i mean is is there a way to start de customized workflow XXHXCEMP (Workflows for Employees) from EBS instead of the original HXCEMP.
In PO you can do it with doctypes setup. Here you can define the customized workflow to be used.
Kind regards,
Ronald

OTL Workflows for Employees

Hi All
I have a requirement to customise the OTL Workflows for Employees, what I need to do is change the workflow to send notifications to the task manager in a project. If the task has no Task Manager then the notification must go to the project manager. I am new to workflow, I just to find which process actually groups the time card entries so I can be able to manipulate that process into splitting on task Level not notproject level.
Please any info will be greatly appreciated

Denise,
Based on the profile value, (If it is set to yes), it will always go into 'Deferred status' and then when you run 'WF background process' for OTL workflow for
employees, it will get picked up.
Sometimes, the time that the WF sits in Deferred status may be longer and even WF background process will NOT pick them up (during that time)
and one quick solution to bounce the DB(yes, database),
Hope this helps.
Thanks

OTL Workflow for Employees starting in Deferred Status

Suddenly the OTL Workflows for Employees went to Deferred status. It was necessary to manually start each one. I have checked all other worklfows and they are fine. Only the Timecard Approval does not start. We have stopped and restarted the concurrent managers as well as bounced the Apache server. Nothing is kick strating this workflow process.
Any ideas would be appreciated.

Thanks and Regards

If you would have done a little searching you would have found it. You can find all the relevant BOR's in the repository. You can find examples of linkages in SWEHR2 and if the right one isn't there you can create yours in SWEHR3.
Please put in a little effort of your own in stead off taking the easy way out and ask for everything here. Also let us know what you already did to solve your problem so you don't get the answers you already tried.

Hi Asif,
Thanks for the reply.
I referred the links mentioned by you, but couldn't find anything relevant to re-triggering of Account Generator workflow.
The customizations I did are working fine and is triggering the workflow. But my Question is, what are the circumstances that re-trigger the Account Generator for a given Purchase Order.
To elaborate, say for instance I have created a PO for PO category 'Electrical Equipments' furnishing all other details and charge account is generated for this category, and the PO is saved. Now I come back and change the PO category to 'Medical Equipments' for the same PO, retaining all the other info same.
So here, will the Account generator be re-triggered to generate different charge account?
Kindly suggest.
Thanks,

Want to deactivate Workflow for single Employee

Hi Team,
We have a requriement to deactivate T&E (Trip Approvals) workflow for a
Personnel number, Basically he is a director of the company who doesn't want to
and allow his Assitant to do it on his behalf with out him receiving the
approval.
Currently we are following the below process
Trip created by Employee --> Checked and Approved by Manager --> If
not approved by 5 days, it will go to Manager's Manager (Senior level).
Now for this specific case, we need an exception process as below, where we
need to deactivate the Workflow only for Director, if not possible then the
trip's Wrokflow can be generated as below.
Trip created by Director --> Approved by Assistant.
Please guide me.
Regards,
Sandeep

Hello
You can use a standard functionnality in workflow which is substitution/delegation. The director can delegate for a specific task (trip approval) and for a period of time to another user.
So he will delegates to his assistant and the assistant will do the validation on his behalf.
It is a common requirement and delegation is often used for high level managers.

LSO Workflow for Participants from Course Admin and Instructor

Hi All,
As par standard SAP we found that there is no approval process/Workflow for participants if they are booked by course administrator/Instructors.
Please suggest if we have to make some enhancements or if I am missing some standard configuration here.
Regards,
Umesh

Hi Connie,
Thanks for your reply,
Yes at the moment I am concentrating on the Classroom training part only.
As you correctly pointed out that the few of the Associates will not have the access to the computers/training system they do request by telephone/email to training department directly and I think this is the process in most of the organizations.
Now if the admin is booking the courses on behalf on the employee, it should go to the Manager for approval and subsequently the employee should be also informed.
So I am looking for similar process.
Kindly let me know if this can be achieved in some way, e.g (some sap customization or some simple enhancements).
Regards,
Umesh

Price variance workflow for blocked invoices in MM purchasing

Hi Gurus,
We are implementing price variance workflow for blocked invoices. We built a custom workflow to
take care of the routing requirement of the customer.
We also did necessary customization defining the tolerance limits for price variance. Before testing the workflow wanted to check events in SWEL and its is found that system doesn't raise any event for price/ quantity block and hence the workflow is not triggered at all.
Event trace active flag is set in SWELS. I am not able to figure out what we are missing.The invoice gets created correctly with the price/quantity blocks and blocked invoices are available when we see in Tcode 'MRBR'.
Any suggestion will be highly appreciated.
Edited by: srinivas bejjanki on Jan 29, 2009 10:34 PM

Hello,
So you are absolutely sure the event trace is on. If you try SWUE with some other event, you see the entry in SWEL, dated a few minutes ago, correct?
When you try SWUE with BUS2081.BlockedPrice does it give any message?
Does SWUE work with any other BUS2081 event?

Regarding workflow for OM infotype 1000,1001

Hi all,
i am having one scenerio.
i have to trigger a mail when there in any create,delete,change in infotype 1000,1001.
it should trigger a mail to the personal admin which is stored in 0001 infotype of that employee.
how this can be achived?
is there any workflow exists for this one or thrgh dynmaic action.
Please suggest any solution for this one....
Regards,
Manjunath

Hi Manjunath,
I think there is a standard workflow for that, otherwise you could create one. I think you will need to make sure for which changes exactly you need to trigger this workflow.
You need an event raised when a change is done, and then the workflow will start and you can send the e-mail. You probably need to create a new rule to determine the personal admin from infotype 0001.

Workflow for Document Approval

Hi all,
I'm a newbie to SolMan and is trying to figure out how to implement a workflow for document approval. A similar question has probably been posted in the past, but I can't find a definite solution, only some hints.
Basically, what we're trying to achieve is the following:
When a document is uploaded using SOLAR02, and the creator of the document changes the status to ready for sign-off, we would like to trigger a workflow which will send an email to a couple of persons who are responsible to approve the document. We already implement the digital signature, we just want to add an automatic email notification to be sent to the approvers.
Based on my research, it seems that this is not supported by SolMan and hence we have to do a custom development.
There's an object key called SOLMANDOC and we should raise an event (something like SIGNATURE_PROCESS_START) to send an email notification to the approvers. Can somebody confirm whether my understanding is right ? Does anybody know the name of the BADI that we can modify to achieve our goal ?
FYI, we're using SolMan Rel 7.01 SP 19.
Thanks in advance
Lara

Hi Phil,
I'm facing with problems with creating a simple 2 steps release strategy.
the problem is I cant approve the last step of the release.
This is what I did:
In spro Digital Signature->Signature strategy:
in "Define Authorization groups" I create this entries:
1. EING
2. VERIF
in "Define Individual Signatures" I create this entries:
1. S1   EING
2. S2   VERIF
in "Define Individual Strategies: I create this entries:
SigStrat: ZSIGSTR
Signature Method: R
Display comment: X Required
Display Remark: X
Display document: X
Verification: not checked
in "Assign individual signatures"
CtrIn Indiv.SIG.      AGrpDIG
1          S1               EING
2          S2               VERIF
Display Predecessor for Ctrln is 2 is 1
for "Display release statuses" an entry with one line with the value 1
and in "Display individual signatures there 2 entries 1 and 2.
in spro "Define Document status schemes"
stat scheme "ZSIGSTR"
4 status:
Status                 init status      Sequence    Low     High       lock         Signature schma End status         Cancel status
COPY_EDITING       X                  10           10       20          -
REVIEW                                     20           10        40        X                    ZSIGSTR         RELEASED    DECLINED
RELEASED                                30           10        40        X
DECLINED                                  40           10        20
I created two roles with object c_sign_bpr one with the value "EING"   and the other with the value "VERIF"
I assign this status scheme to a document type in my project.
I tried to release a document the first step was the author of the document move the status to "REVIEW" and I got a window that i need to enter my password and it worked ok.
The problem is in the second step that I need to release the document (now is in a REVIEW status) When I press on the icon in order to release I didn't get the option to release only to cancel there is no "V" option in the small window.
Can you please tell me if I did a correct customization? also can you tell me if my problem is maybe missing authorization? Can you direct me to reading material or to an example?
Best regards

Update Managed Metadata field in SharePoint 2013 Designer Workflow for O365

Hi Guys,
I need to update the managed metadata field in SharePoint Custom List using Workflow but its not working. I have also tried to use the HTTP WebService POST Operation but no luck.
Am doing this for a SharePoint Online (O365) Site.
Has anyone worked on something similar and was able to get it running ?
I saw a post to create a custom Workflow Activity but I don't have a choice to go with the custom code option.
http://patrickboom.wordpress.com/2013/07/23/workflow-activity-set-managed-metadata-column/
I was able to achieve this by creating a SP 2010 based Workflow for O365. Which means that it worked well with SP 2010.
Is there a different way to do it in 2013 ? I tried almost all options apart from creating custom Activity but nothing worked out.
Any help would be great.
Thanks,
Nutan
Nutan Sharma

Hi Nutan,
According to your description, my understanding is that you want to update Managed Metadata field with SharePoint 2013 Designer for SharePoint Online.
As far as I know, there is not an OOB action to achieve your requirement with SharePoint 2013 Designer for SharePoint 2013. Customizing a workflow action is a better option to achieve it. Why didn’t you customize a workflow action as Patrick’s blog?
In addition, please take a look at the article about Nintex workflow, check whether it is useful for you:
http://habaneroconsulting.com/insights/setting-managed-metadata-fields-in-a-nintex-workflow#.UykBSf6KDHo
As this issue is about SharePoint Online, I suggest you create a new thread on SharePoint Online forum:
http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/home?forum=onlineservicessharepoint . More experts will assist you.
I hope this helps.

This workflow gets pernr and benefit plan information from portal.
this workflow is a one step approval mail
In the workflow three steps are there.
In the first step i have to derive basic hourly salary of the person by using infotype --- 008 and company code for the pernr from the 0001 and benefit plan he enrolled

For the first step is there any method I have to create which calls function module.
if so for which object type i have to add method.
third how do I create the workflow container for this.
I am new to workflow. Please help me friends.

I think you should create your own Business Object or you can refer to Business Object EMPSALPACK.
Now Company Code should be an Attribute that you should do the Coding For.
Use this attribute in the Condition Step of Workflow Template.
Workflow Container will contain the Business Object that you will be creating. The Business object should have Key Field Pernr and may be anything relevant that you will do for Coding. I think you might have to trigger the Event of the Business Object through code.
Check the Code below.
