Workflow in release streategy

Purpose of workflow in release strategy & how to configure is it applicable for both with and without classification

Hi Prabu,
If you want to use workflow to release POs, you must make the standard and basic settings for workflow (Basis -> Business Management -> SAP Business Workflow).
·     In the case of a release procedure linked to workflow, you must have previously created the user names, positions, jobs, etc. that you here assign to the release code in the organizational plan and must have linked them to the relevant standard tasks in task-specific Customizing (Basis -> Business Management -> Business Workflow -> Perform Task-Specific Customizing).
·     You must assign the authorization M_EINK_FRG to the persons who are to be involved in the release procedure ( Authorization Management -> Create Authorization Profiles and Assign to Users).
If a release code is to be used in workflow, indicate this accordingly in the Workflow field
The Workflow indicator is also used to control role resolution:
·     "1 - Role Resolution with Group, Code and Plant (T16FW)"
Here you use a role resolution that is supplied in the standard system. To do so, you must assign the release point in the section Workflow (see below).
·     "9 - Role Resolution via User Exit"
Here you use the customer exit M06E0005 to define a role resolution of your own.

  • Create workflow to release Down Payment Request (F-47) before automatic Pyment

    Hi Experts,
    I use basic workflow for parked document to release all invoice document from AP. But i get problem with down payment request.
    In my company, we run down payment by F110 according to down payment request. We use workflow to release parked document before post. But down payment request is created as noted item, so that, it isn't go to workflow when create. Please give me advice how i can manage Down Payment Request. Ex: we want block down payment request when being create and have release function to permit down payment by F110.

    Hi,
    Using T-code F-47 - Down payment request against raise to possible as follows.
    a) Purchase Order Document
    b) Production Order
    c)PM Order
    d)Service Order
    e)Process Order
    f)Internal Order
    Down payment request is not possible against to raise StockTtransfer Order(STO) and display error message.
    So, you have to choose the above list only.
    Hope, it is useful for you.

  • Purchase requisition workflow - reset release via BSP and BAPI

    Hello,
    We have a small workflow to release purchase requisition.
    A mail is send to the approver. The approver opens an BSP application to release or refuse the PR.
    The approval works well.
    The rejection doesn't work well.
    I use the BAPI_REQUISITION_RESET_REL_GEN to reset the first release of the PR (00 release key)
    We have 00, 01, 02 as release key, and all the release have to pass to release completely the PR.
    00 is the requester level.
    My problem is :
    for example I am the 01 level. I received the mail from 00 level, I refuse the PR via the BSP. In ME53N, the current release key is now 00 but when I look at the workflow, the following agent (corresponding to 02 release key) is determined. Normally nothing has to happen.
    Someone has an idea to stop the workflow ?
    thanks
    Véronique

    Hi Martin,
    When I checked the contain of container in the workflow (in the log), I saw that the release key is 02.
    I don't know why but the WF received the event RELEASESTEPCREATED instead of normaly it is finished.
    When I reset the release via ME54N, the WF ends correctly and no new event is received.
    How can't I see why the event is started in the BAPI.
    In fact it is very strange, if I used the BAPI alone, all works, no new event is started.
    But if I used the BAPI in my BSP, a new event is started.
    Thanks

  • Workflow Task Release Status

    Hi All.
    A quick questions. What's the purpose of workflow task release status?
    What's the impact if keep in "Not Release"
    Cheers

    Okay,
    I admit, a bit short on the explanations.
    But (I'm not on an active SAP environment right now, so everything I say, could be wrong, sorry if that seems the case, if not, then I should worry about trying to have a life outside of SAP   )
    When you press F1 on the the release status it is said, that these things have only administrative purposes and do not change the normal behaviour of the system.
    Kind regards, Rob Dielemans

  • Urgent Help :: BPEL Workflow Auto Release Error

    HI All,
    im working on a workflow project, i have 3 levels of approval process, first it will assign to one group one of the user pick the task assigned to this group, will act on this by claiming the task and then approve/reject the task. The approved task will move to a next group and the users in the second group will act on that similarly.
    There is a auto release function available in the BPEL workflow. when the user does not act on a task for a particular time that will release the task automatically after a certian amount of time. but strangley the Tasks which are in suspened/completed are being released by workflow auto release function even though the users has completed the task it is bringing back the task to user.
    i think auto release should work on only for claimed tasks when the user is not working with claimed tasks for a particular amount of time. but strangely this is occuring for the completed/suspended tasks.
    can anybody got similar type of error.
    please advise if this needs to be set manually/is it a bug ?
    please find the server versions and details below
    Theser are versions im using in the server..

    but strangley the Tasks which are in suspened/completed are being released by workflow auto release function even though the users has completed the task it is bringing back the task to user.
    Do you mean even after the approver approve this task, the task still release back to the user?
    Thanks,

  • Workflow for releasing PR

    Hello Friends,
    I need a workflow for releasing the PR. For this I had used the default workflow WF_REQ_REL. Its working fine.
    My problem is, if I am rejecting and saving the release of an item in the PR, the workflow is currently choosing the outcome 'Purchase requisition item significantly changed'. Is this correct?
    When I reject the release of a particular item in the PR, I think the outcome to be executed should be 'Release of purchase requisition item refused'.
    Can someone give an appropriate explanation & a solution for this ? Is there anything wrong from my side ?
    Regards,
    Abijith

    Hi Abijith,
    Yes it will follow the significantly changed branch only if you cancel or reject a purchase requisition. The reason is if you check the status of purchase requisition then whenever the PR is rejected, the status becomes changed.
    If you want to take any action in the workflow when the PR gets rejected, then you need to read the field BANPR of table EBAN. If BANPR = 08(REJECTED) , this implies that the PR is rejected and you can take the further actions thereafter based on it.
    There is nothing wrong from your side. But try to look into more technical things like values of fields in table EBAN etc. to know why exactlly  it is following the SIGNIFICANTLY CHANGED branch.
    Feel free to ask more if you don't get this.
    Regards,
    Guddan

  • Customizing steps of workflow for Release strategy

    Hi Experts,
    Iam looking for step by step customizing details of workflow for Release Strategy for Purchase Requisition.
    I need necessary classification and Customizing settings for a release procedure in the purchase requisition to the workflow.
    I am looking for the steps, in which the purchase requisition can be edited straight from the workflow inbox.
    Regards
    Nani

    Hi Nani,
                First you have to confirm what kind of release it is in Purchase req you have Item level release and over all release.
    Item level release - WS00000038
    Over all Release - WS20000077
    Now please confirm with your MM consultant that he has done the release Strategy and tesed it Ok.
    Escecially things like assigning plant, Assigning Agents,Release codes and so on when everything is done by him in SPRO.
    Now your work starts If it is just release use the standard workflow.
    If they need additional notification mails and things like that copy the standard workflow and do the customization in the copied version and deactivate the standard workflow.
    You can also do dead line monitering (Factory Calander) and many more things.
    also please go through these 2 links you will get better idea.
