Workflow for material changed

Hi Gurus,
I would like to implement a workflow with a mail which wil be triggered whenever a material is changed.
I have created a workflow using SWDD..How can I link this workflow to Material change transaction(MM02)..
I am new to this workflow...Pls help me...
Thanks in advance...
Regards,
Saj

Hi,
you need to create an event for your change document BOR 1001006 thru SWEC.
create a similar event in your BOR Event and use this event in the Basic Data of your WF.
So whenever a material is changed your event would trigger your WF.
Hope I am clear,
any issues reply back to this thread.
Aditya.
P.S
just a suggestion, could you put in your name instead F1 (as I like referring to names, though I just address all by initials) offcourse no hard n fast rule,
but since its a <b>wonderful Forum</b>, lets know each other .
Well my friend I still have no issues with your Display Name, it was just a thought.

How to trigger workflow for already created purchase order ?

HELLO EXPERTS
let me clear my scenario first . i have 1 purchase order whose workflow is not triggered . means it is showing me message no workflow that have already worked for this object.i have created 1 more purchase order taking reference of this purchase order means both are same same message for this po also. it was happening because event linkage for the business object bus2012 is not activated but now it is enabled and i have created third purchase order with reference to above po means this third po is also same as above 2 no change other than po number but for this workdflow is getting triggered . now i want to trigger workflow for orignal first po but for my first po it is showing me same message that no workflow that have already worked for this object. what i have to do to trigger workflow for this po. i have performed this steps in test system. i have workflow number

Hello !
      You can trigger the workflow from SWUE.Enter bus2012 and created for object type and event respectively.
      Click object key button where enter the purchase order number which have been already created.
      But, why do you want to trigger the workflow again for already created purchase order ?

Trigger workflow for material reservation via IW32 (PM order)

Hi,
How can I implement workflow process for material reservation using tcode IW32
- PM order.
Thanks,
Amos

Hello,
when there is no material in the store if the order is showing the availablity,then check the Availability Check for Material, PRTs, and Capacities node in IMG.
In order there are two material availability check,one is over all material availability check,which will shows shortage only before release or during release once the order is relased it always shows that the material is available.
other material availability check is individual line item check,when you check with this it will take to the ATP quantities of the material where it will shows the availability same as the MMBE,including the Reservation,PR & PO quantity.
So better check this.
Regards,
Raj.

Workflow for Material Master and Vendor Master Creation

Hi
Has anyone mapped creation of Material Master & Vendor Master through SAP Workflow.
Seek your valuable inputs.
Best Regards
--Vikas

You may not get the complete standard form which will match this functionality. But you can develop your business logic in custom code for fetching the data and the interface and use the standard templates for layouts if any template matches your requirement. You can see the complete lest of templates in : "transaction SFP->Form->Layout->Tools->Template Manager
Most of the common templates are available here.

Business object for material , template workflow for materials ?

Hi,
I need to create a workflow for material master , creating material basic data, create plant views etc
Which is the appropriate workflow and is there a standard one as a template?
Thanks
Antonis

Hello,
I feel it is better that you use the standard business object BUS1001006 for your requirement related to the material management as some of the events which are obsolete in the business object BUS1001 have been redefined in BUS1001006.
Events like "Material created" and "New View for the material Created" are redefined which I think you need for your requirement.
Hope this will help.

Hi Martina,
If you have done that then you are almost on the verge of completion!
Follow this binding procedure between the task container and the method container and get the results.
In the BO method, add an output parameter that would store the plant detail.
Now create a data element in the method code of the same type as plant detail type.
Then use swc_set_element to store the value of the plant detail in the output parameter.
In the workflow task, create an output parameter of the same type as the BO method output parameter.
In the binding between the task container and the method container fetch the value of plant details from method container to task container element.
Now pass this parameter to the workflow container and use in the send mail step in the mail text.
Make sure to save and generate the BO after doing all the changes.

Key performance indicators (KPI) for material creation

Dear all,
I need to define some Key Performance Indicators (KPI’s) to measure the data quality during the material creation (MM01) process. The objective is to get concrete statistics about data quality/accuracy for fields related to material from all views created with MM01 (basic data, classification, unit of measure...).
I would like to get your expertise on how to measure these KPI’s : which transactions, table (...) to use ?
I have already few ideas :
-Table CDHDR
-Transaction MM04
-Create “checkpoints“ into the workflow for material creation (ZWF01)
Do you have any other idea in mind?
I am open for all advices: transaction, table, process, approach…
Thanks in advance for your help !

I have a few ideas, but the accuracy of the master data is based on your system config.
Some things that are helpful in most of the cases:
- If material type is HAWA (trading goods) your procurement indicator should always be External procurement (check those for other material types if you have it uniformed). You can also check purchasing group based on material type if you have it distinct by material type.
- Check if sales views are opened in all org.levels
- Check if storage loc.views are opened for all SLoc
All in all, you need to have a link of two or more data in material master to be able to check it in some way automatically, otherwise you won't be able to determine if the data is correct or not.
E.g. How would you every know if lot size of 120.000 PCS is OK or not for a specific material or if you need to assign a specific purchasing group to your material.
You know the logic behind your material master data best so you can create the best rules to check for your KPI.
Regards.

Custom workflow for manual merch projects

Hi,
Having issues in configuring custom workflow.
In ATG10.0.3 created a custom workflow(editCommerceAssets.wdl) & configured with catalog import job (importing thru spreadsheet & creating a Merch project).This works successfully.
I am trying to configure this custom workflow for manually created projects in BCC.
In the following files I tried replacing commonWorkflow.wdl to editCommerceAssets.wdl.
<localconfig>\atg\commerce\web\assetmanager\taskConfiguration.xml
<localconfig>\atg\commerce\web\workflowActivities.xml
But getting this error in pub console:
10:13:23,195 WARN [ActivityManager] The workflow activity with ID /Common/commonWorkflow.wdl has been registered multiple times for the same workflow. Please verify your workflow
configuration as this is not allowed.
10:14:40,453 ERROR [ApplicationManager] There is no application configured with ID '/Common/commonWorkflow.wdl'.
Any recommendations?
Thanks!
Mani
Edited by: user11263665 on Oct 17, 2012 9:38 AM

It is possible that the workflow has already been registered in db before you modified workflowActivities.xml.Did you try cleaning up workflow tables and restart the server??
epub_workflow_info, epub_coll_workflow, epub_ind_wf,epub_wf_server_id tables
Make sure there is only one entry for each workflow in epub_workflow_info. If there are multiple entries, then it may be coming from 2 different places and you need to disable one of them. Whenever you create custom work flow, copy the existing workflow and modify it and give it a different name. If you are importing programmatically, you really dont need to configure it in taskConfiguraiton.xml ( as it corresponds to settings related to which item-descriptors, tabs, security in BCC gui).

Material master workflow for changes

Hi Experts
I have a requirement to trigger multiple material workflows for all the plants that have a blocked status in MRP1 when the material gets uploaded into SAP from a third party.
I have used SWEC and created a new 'MaterialChanged' event and put a start condition for the workflow to look at the MRP1/status.
This looks to work fine as long as there is one plant and its MRP1 has blocked status. I am not able to figure out how to handle if there is a multiple plant specific data for a material and all or some of the plants are blocked, this is when multiple workflows are expected to trigger for each plant. Each plant has got different set of approvers.
Because I think the 'trigger' will happen only once for a material irrespective of how many plants the material may have.
If any of you have handled this kind of scenario, appreciate your help.
Thanks
Sasi

Hi,
I think the easiest would be to just echance the business object with an attribute if there are any plants with the blocked status.
then in your workflow, you retrieve how many plants there are with blocked status and then use that data in the other tab for multiline element in a subworkflow.
This will create all the workflows per plant.
Kind regards, Rob Dielemans

ISR For Approve Create Material Master

I have requirement apply ISR for Control Create Master.Example User1 input information about purchasing group and send to User2. And then User2 input information about Plant and send to next user for approve.If already send to last user and submit,ISR will be create material master.
But i don't know could be apply ISR for this case, Because i find for Costing and Banking.
Please help me. Thank you very much

Hi,
You need to speak to a workflow consultant.
You can get workflow to do many things (including creating a material master) but it takes a lot of coding and design.
For those of you who think that workflow is just used for the standard SAP workflow tasks, you have to realise that workflow is far more powerful and far more useful than many people think.
It is always referred to as "Event triggered messaging" but it is more accurate to call it "Event triggered events".
Within workflow you can chain together many different transactions and or ABAPS and so you can get it to do virtually anything you want (as long as you know how).
In this case you need the workflow to trigger an ABAP or BTCI session etc. that works through the MM01 transaction. It is relatively easy to get it to do this, but I am not technical enough to be able to help with the steps involved (sorry)

Specs and workflow for creating opening/closing titles for video

I'm trying to create specs/workflow for videos that I will be adding opening and closing titles to (black background with colored text), using QuickTime Player 7 (Pro).
The videos are .mov, AVC coding, 1280x720, millions, 30fps, a sample video had a data rate of 7,463 kbits/second.
I created 1280x720 300dpi (perhaps I should have used 72dpi?), saved as a .jpg (highest quality), then copied the .jpg contents into a QuickTime Player 7 (Pro) blank document multiple times until I had enough frames for my need. The resultant video was very large; 339,743 kbps/second. I then exported to H.264, which brings the data rate down to only 214 kbits/second (and looks fine) and then copied that into the head of my AVC coding video.
Questions:
1) When I exported to H.264, the x pixels increased by 6, to 1286. After pasting that video into the AVC coding (1280x720) video, the resultant movie is 1280x720. Did my graphic get compressed by 6 pixels horizontally?
2) Does my method of converting the huge graphic movie to H.264, and then pasting it into the AVC coding make sense? The combined video has AVC coding, according to Movie Inspector; does the H.264 of the graphic get converted automatically? Any better way to approach creating my titles?
Note: these AVC coding videos may get converted to H.264 for some use, but for now, I'm keeping the highest quality (source) video I have to work with.
Thanks,
Bob

"First, tell use why you're not using FCP's titling and keying capabilities."
I don't own FCP.
"Then, explain why you're doing it this way."
I'm able to create graphics with plenty of control in a graphics program (PhotoShop in this case).
"There is no dpi in video, there are only pixels."
Sorry, I posted my thread then realized I left out a bit of info, but couldn't edit the post. I should have written that I created my graphics file in PhotoShop, hence the dpi reference.
"A black background for text is not the same as using an alpha channel."
OK. The portion of my video with titling stands by itself; that is, I'm not overlaying titles on existing video. Is there a use for alpha channel if I'm working up standalone title video frames? Uses less data rate?
It seems from your inference I would be best served by purchasing FCP, so I'll probably take that advice and buy it.
From a general video production point of view, I'd still like to learn more about creating titles in a graphics app and bringing them into QT Player; what format to bring them in as (e.g., H.264 into an AVC coding video, as I've done, or ?), and what happens when my graphics video gets converted from 1280x720 to 1286x780 (AVC export to H.264), and then brought into an AVC codec movie, and the movie remains at 1280x720-- does the graphic get horizontally widened, or the vertical compressed? Thanks.
Bob
