Workflow Information System (WIS)

Hi all,
Recently i came to know about WIS.
When i researched, i found that it is a workflow reporting tool for LIS (Logistics) system only.
(1) Then what about workflow reporting for non-LIS system ?
(2) From SDN, I discovered that it is going to be obselete soon. Then what is the alternative for the same ?
Please answer my qus.
(3) I will highly appreciate if you can give more practical examples of the WIS reporting.
In SDN, till now no clear cut explanation is posted for WIS.
Let's make this thread count so that others can leverage from it.
Regards,
Debi

Any body who can answer my question ?
Thanks,
Debi

Error Message: No approval workflow found. Inform system administrator

Dear Gurus,
I've encounter this error message when I'm creating a shopping cart. "No approval workflow found. Inform system administrator"
I've checked the conditions at "SWB_COND" and it looks fine.
I've check Event Type Linkage "t-code SWETYPV" and its active "SAVED". It links to function module SWB_CHECK_FB_START_COND_EVAL.
Cost Centers and HOD are maintain correctly.
Need your advice.
Regards,
Santthi.

Hi,
The message you are getting i.e. "No approval workflow found. Inform system administrator" is because no workflow has been activated properly for the business object BUS2121(for the Shopping Cart).
Please check the following:
In SWE2,check whether the event linkage is activated for any of the workflows for the object BUS2121.If atleast one of the workflows for BUS 2121 has been activated,you should not get the message.
If any of the workflows has been activated,please check whether the start conditions for that workflow has been activated or not.Even if the start conditions have not been activated,the error message should not appear as the start conditions need to be checked when 2 workflows are activated in the system for business object BUS2121 for shopping cart.
If more then 1 workflow is activated,check the start conditions for these workflows.

R/3 workflow information

Is it possible to store "workflow" information in BW? We currently use a customised program in R/3 to retrieve this information, but would prefer to access it via BW if possible.
Regards, Frederick

Hi Niharika,
I think you have a typo in your code. You can retrieve the work item id by using [code]<Property name="DynamicParameter" value="wi_id=${item.externalId}" />[/code] instead of [code]<Property name="DynamicParameter" value="wi_id=${item.externaId}"/>[/code]
In addition, you can get values from the work item container by extracting them as custom attributes:
[code]<ItemType name="uwl.task.webflow.TS90000001.<system id>" connector="WebFlowConnector" ...>
<ItemTypeCriteria ... />
<CustomAttributes>
<CustomAttributeSource id="WEBFLOW_CONTAINER" objectIdHolder="<element name>" ...>
<Attribute name="<element name>" type="string" displayName="<element description>" />
</CustomAttributeSource>
</CustomAttributes>
<Actions>
 <Action name="launchWebDynPro" handler="SAPWebDynproLauncher">
 <Properties>
 <Property name="DynamicParameter" value="<custom param>=${item.<element name>}" />
 </Properties>
 <Descriptions default="" />
 </Action>
</Actions>
</ItemType>[/code]
Hope this helps,

Organization O 50000716 is not a purchasing group; inform system administra

Dear Expert,
Need your help, we using SRM 7 with extended classic scenario, we use workflow for PO with 3 levelling (if the value of po more than 200 million Rp). now, there is no problem when we approve this po for approver 1 and approver 2. but when the approver 3 want to approve this PO, these error show up:
Organization O 50000716 is not a purchasing group; inform system administration ( i actually have assign a purchasing group in function tab for this organizational unit )
System of purchasing organization O 50000658 and purchasing group O 50000716 differ (there is a different with the company code for O 50000658 (cc:1000) & O 50000716 (cc:1100)) but i'm not sure this is the cause.
best regards,
Melynessa

Hi Melynessa
Did you maintained a purchasing organization for the approver 3? A purchasing group and a purchasing organization are needed.
Try to compara the information of approver 1 and 2 with approver 3 (PPOMA_BBP, SU01, etc).
I hope this helps.

Read currently running workflow information

Hi everybody,
Please let me know if anyone came across a situation where we need to read the currently running workflow information..
To be precise, I have a workflow which starts a method, which in turn executes code present in an include.. Now, in this include, I need to know whether it was called from the workflow.. (What i mean to say is that, the include could have been called from many places.. like BAdI methods etc.. I need to execute a specific action only if it was called from the workflow.)
The plan could be something like.. "read all the currently running workflows and get the related information" .. Any idea how????
Regards,
Arun B

Hello again,
well, as long nobody else runs jobs using this background-user or changes the user-ID of the workflow-system, it'll work fine.
To be more precisely on the WF-BATCH user, you could also check for the configured name. Anyways, for a quick check/fix you could be fine when using this procedure.
However it'll not work within work-item execution from dialog-tasks, as then the actual user processed the code.
So here's the code snippet to determine the workflow user's user-id:
*Method signature:
* RETURNING VALUE( RV_WF_BATCH ) TYPE XUBNAME
*   "User Name of workflow background user
method GET_WORKFLOW_USER.
   DATA: lv_rfcdest             TYPE RFCDES-RFCDEST.
*   Read the RFC destination from workflow basic customizing
   CALL FUNCTION 'SWW_WIM_RFC_DESTINATION_NAME'
      IMPORTING
         WORKFLOW_DESTINATION       = lv_rfcdest.
*   Read the user-ID from this destination
   CALL FUNCTION 'RFC_READ_L_DESTINATION'          "#EC CI_USE_WANTED
       EXPORTING
          DESTINATION               = lv_rfcdest   "#EC CI_USE_WANTED
          AUTHORITY_CHECK           = ' '
       IMPORTING
          USER                      = rv_wf_batch
       EXCEPTIONS
          OTHERS                    = 0.

Error while reading the PO in the Backend system. Inform system admin

Hi All,
We are having a peculiar issue of 'Error while reading the PO in the Backend system. Inform system admin'.
The P.O is in ordered status in SRM but the same is not getting transferred to backend ECC system.
No error messages or logs in RZ20, SLG1 any where.
All programmes like BBP_GET_STATUS_2 and CLEAN_REQREQ_UP are running fine.
Tried pushing the P.Os manually using function module (BBP_PD_PO_TRANSFER_EXEC_V2) to backend ECC.
It was working fine till a week ago and suddenly this problem is coming.
We had implemented few OSS notes suggested by SAP for the issue of 'shopping carts appearing in sourcing cockpit even after P.O creation' in both development and test system.
Now this issue is coming up in test system where as development system is working fine.
Please let us know where to look and how to resolve this issue.
A quick response would be highly appreciated.
Regards,
Teja

I am facing the same issue with one PO in the Production system.
SRM 5.0 , R/3 4.6C Extended classic scenario.
I checked the status of other PO's created today. I see them in R/3. There is one PO which was created a week back which shows up as "ordered" in SRM but the PO is missing in R/3. When clicked on the details on the web, system throws the error
Error while reading the PO in the Backend system. Inform system admin.
Message no. BBP_CF010
I checked RZ20, SLG1 no errors were found. I checked RFC connection, it was working fine too.
I tried pushing the PO using the FM BBP_PD_PO_TRANSFER_EXEC, it did not solve the problem.
In SRM WEBGUI Process PO - Item data -->follow on documents --> PO status is shown as Archived.
Any inputs would be greatly appreciated. Please throw some light on this issue.

Error while reading PO in backend system Inform system adiministrator

Hi All,
I am working on extended classic scenario and the problem is that after the PO ís ordered it gives the message " Error while reading PO in backend system Inform system administrator" and this is happening only for a particular local PO.
When I check the PO number in R/3 it does not exist.
The number range is correct both in SRM and R/3 (external no. range is ticked).
Also I could not find any logs in RZ20 nor a dump.
When I checked in bbp_pd, couldnt find any relevant information except that the PO has the status ordered.
I am on SRM version BBPCRM 4.0 SAPKU40007
R/3 version 4.6 C SAPKH46C47
Thanks in advance,

Hi
Have you tried out this ?
There are two BADIs which might help you in achieving the job.
BBP_EXTLOCALPO_BADI [Control Extended Classic Scenario ]
and
BBP_GROUP_LOC_PO
[Exit Grouping of Items for Local Purchase Orders]
Read the documenatation first, using transaction - SE18
before implementing them for your requirement.
Hope this will help.
Please reward suitable points.

Attribute for user contains errors. Inform system admin

Hello,
We've got an issue with shopping carts created by a user that was deleted from system. When trying to see in Monitoring Shopping Carts header or item details of a given sc. A web error occurs:
The URL http://srp.srm.gruposalinas.com.mx:8000/sap/bc/gui/sap/its/bbpsc11/! was not called due to an error.
Note
The following error text was processed in the system SRP : Attribute for user contains errors. Inform system admin.
The error occurred on the application server srm-pro_SRP_00 and in the work process 2 .
The termination type was: TH_RES_FREE
The ABAP call stack was:
Form: OUTPUT_EXPRESS_MESSAGES of program SAPLBBP_SC_UI_ITS
Form: EXTERNAL_SCREEN_DETERMINE of program SAPLBBP_SC_UI_ITS
Module: EXTERNAL_SCREEN_DETERMINE of program SAPLBBP_SC_UI_ITS
We've cheked SAP NOTE 312058-BBPPU99: Error: Attribute for ... is missing. Inform ...
But it seems that none of the information applies to us, since this issue is only present for Shopping carts that were created by this deleted user.
So we tried to re-assing one of this sc, chaning PARTNER_NO,ADDR_NR
ADDR NP data in table CRMD_PARTNER according to a new given user, but it didn't work. So we need to know how to re-assing this sc or perhaps how to find what specific attribute is missing.
Any advice is welcome.
Thanks in advance.

Hi
Which SRM version are you using ? This is an SRM error message.
The manager role should be enough to change user attribute. The transaction is BBPATTRMAINT. Employee role should have BBPUM02 or BBPAT05 to change their own attribute.
Please check whether the User ID you are using to Log into BBP_PD (and seems to be assigned in the org structure also)is consistent and has no errors in tcode USERS_GEN. You should check the user, it's not set up properly in USERS_GEN Transaction, Else repair the user.
To maintain the user attributes you must have the Administrator role.. Your user should have role SAP_BBP-STAL_ADMINISTRATOR and be integrated in the org structure. your user must be integrated in SRM organizational structure. To see which attributes are missing, you can click on the user in PPOMA_BBP to see details, and go to last tab "Check". This will list all required attributes depending on used scenarios (so you may not require all of them). You can also use transaction BBP_ATTR_CHECK to check user's attributes for a particular scenario.
Please go through the following links as well ->
bbp_mon_sc attributes

Logical System for Financial Accounting FI lacking; information systems

Hello,
we`ve got a problem with the creation of a SC. After the selection of a product (doesn`t matter if it`s a "free text", good or service), we got always the following Error:
"Logical System for Financial Accounting FI lacking; information systems"
I`ve already checked the attribute "ACS" in PPOMA_BBP and the RFC-Connections. Have anybody an idea, what i can do else or where i can get further information about this error (like System Log,...)?
Regards Jochen

Hi Jochen,
Kindly check the following SPRO settings in your system
1. SPROSRM ServerTech Basic settings--Define backend system for Prod category. (Ensure that your category which you are using in your SC is defined here with source/target system)
2. SPROSRM ServerCross App Basic Settings--Define Objects in backend systems. (Ensure that Purch grp, prod category, source system, and PO details are maintained here)
3. SPROSRM ServerCross App Basic Settings--Define G/L account for prod category. (Ensure that your Prod category, Source system, Acct assgnmt categry and G/L account are maintained)
Pl check the above and revert back.

Witholding Tax Information system (J1INMIS) Not updating (FICA)

Hi Experts,
We are using ECC 6.0 recently we upgrated with EHP 5. And the current system (FICO) is working fine with TDS calculations and Witholding Tax Information system (J1INMIS) gets updated perfectly.
We are implimenting FICA (student Accounting). FICA has a provision to calculate the TDS so all TDS Calculations done in FICA.
While we transfer the data from FICA to FICO all GL's gets update even TDS GL also getting update. But when I Check the Report Witholding Tax Information system (J1INMIS) the TDS calculated from FICA is note appearing in this report. But appearing in TDS GL's.
I assume FICO system will not have any Vendor information because In FICO all vendor balances will get update to only reconciliation key as vendor are in FICA system.
Another problem is how I can take TDS Certificates for vendors If the Tax Information system doesn't update.
Please suggest.....
Kind Regards,
Shivaji

To get TDS certificate we use T code J1INMIS, Pls dont go to This T code: Follow this:
1. J1INCHLN
2. J1INBANK---Bank no, will be Check Issue A/C.
3. J1INCERT----In this document date should be end of the month date exampl=31/03/2011
After giving all the details in J1INCERT
select - Ctrl S (Save the document_
you will see the below screen (Variant) give variant name XXX Description (Check Printing)
save, you will get 16A Form.

Missing user-defined fields (project definition) in project inform. system

Dear PS friends,
I have extended the CI_PROJ structure with some user-defined fields.
I have started report RCNCT001 (to analyze these new fields in the project information system). The include RCNPROJR was generated and contains the new fields (table XXL_DATA). Include RCNSOM00 was generated too. This is described in note 43493.
But Iu2019m still missing the new user-defined fields in the dynamic selection of reports (e.g. CN40).
What else I have to do? We use SAP_APPL : SAPKH60009
Thanks in advance for any suggestions!

have you used user defined field or custom field via exit CNEX......
User defined fields are activated by configuration using field key
If you added custom fields then check out OSS note 188663 on how to create a CUS view for dynamic selection.

Acct assignment cat. of item not in user data; Inform system admin

Hi all,
We are on a SRM EBP 5.0 project and we are getting the following error when we try to create a purchase order from the purchasers login.
"Acct assignment cat. of item not in user data; Inform system admin"
The complete details of the screen shot are as follows:
The following error text was processed in the system DS1 : Acct assignment cat. of item not in user data; Inform system admin.
The error occurred on the application server lndnysap1_DS1_01 and in the work process 0 .
The termination type was: TH_RES_FREE
The ABAP call stack was:

Form: DETERMINE_EXTERNAL_SCREEN of program SAPLBBP_PO_UI_ITS
Module: DETERMINE_EXTERNAL_SCREEN of program SAPLBBP_PO_UI_ITS
We did the following steps :
Created shopping cart- employer and WF triggered apprd. by manager.
Purchaser did "Carry Out Sourcing ", and if we say "Create Purchase Order", the PO gets created with a information message that "Incomplete purchase order 11/1 is created "
When we go to "Process Purchase Order" for the completion of the same. If we see Follow-on documents "Purchase Order Held" occurs.
In the tab Item Data details Pricing tab we get this error.
Do any of the SRM gurus can suggest us what to do?
In our admin logon it shows
"Server for pricing is not running. Start Server" occurs after every run of this process purchase order from the purchasers login, though our IPC is working fine.
Will be of great help if somebody replies soon.
Sincerely,
Sridhar.

IPC has to be configured.

Restricting the user options in the sales information system

Hi,
We use user information system for sales managers. We use T-code MCSI and the we choose customized information system S904.
Our goal is to restrict the options of each sales manager because we want that the sales manager only have access to his own information.
We try with the Parameter_ID VKB (sales office) but in this case the field is previosly filled but the sales manager can change it.
We use Authorization Data also but the sales manage still also can access to the sales of the others sales manegers.
How can i solve it?
Best Regards
João Fernandes

hi.
Please find the answer below :
"In addition to the type of update, you can also define the period unit to be used in the updating
process.
The period unit specifies the intervals in which the statistical data is to be cumulated. You can
choose from the following periods:
Day
Week
Month
Posting period (you may also need to specify a fiscal year variant)
You can determine the period unit of the update for every standard information structure.
In the SAP standard system, the default period unit for updating all the information structures in
the Sales Information System is month."
Hope this will help you .
