Workflow to add a vendor

hello,
I have a requirement where I have to create a vendor using data in a custom table. there needs to be notification sent to users for them to validate the data in the custom table before adding the vendor to our system.  we would like to use a workflow process for the notification and adding the vendor. I have looked at the PFTC transaction and have checked all of the entries and I cannot find any task or workflow that will add a vendor.
I am new to workflow and I would like to know how I could add a vendor using a workflow.
Would I create a custom task that would call a custom abap program to add the vendor?
is there some SAP delivered code that I could call in a workflow that would add a vendor?
thanks in advance for the help

Hi,
You will most probably have a really big job to get all things done.
Some questions that you really need to have an answer:
-How the vendor data is put to the custom table at the first place? Will you have a custom transaction for doing some kind of "vendor creation request", in which the user adds the vendor data?
-How the vendor data will be reviewed? Will you have a custom transaction for this also?
-There is most likely some function/BAPI for creating the vendor. But how will you ensure that the data put to the request at the first place is valid (probably this is something that the reviewer will do?). Anyhow, how will you handle the situation that the function will not manage to create the vendor because the data is not valid? Someone will get notified, or?
As far as I know there isn't really a functionality in SAP for "draft vendor" - something that would fulfill your requirement or come even close. The business objects mentioned cannot be really utilized since their logic is built with the fact that the vendor already exists in the system. The only existing usefull stuff will be most likely the the function (if you can find one) that you can use for creating the vendor at the end of your process. Everything else will be probably have to be build from scratch. It is doable (I've had few similar types of cases), but it requires quite a bit or work and some WF/ABAP expertise to get it working nicely.

  • Add the vendor of the material document

    In report ME80FN, in the Purchase order history viw, please add the vendor of the material document (can be different from the PO vendor if freight invoice)
    Thanks

    Hi Barb,
    The approach to your design will depend on how many unique items you plan to search for and whether you want the subtotals to appear all at once or if you want to calculate them one at a time based on a search-for item that you determine as you use the document interactively.
    Also very important is whether you will have only the animal name in a cell, or if the animal name will be a part of a larger block of text in the cell.
    Any additional information that you can provide about the nature of your project and how you will use it will be helpful.

  • I have downloaded Adobe Digital Editions in Windows. I need to add a vendor (Harper Collins). How do I do that?

    I have downloaded Adobe Digital Editions to a Windows PC. I want to download a book and need to add a vendor (in this case, Harper Collins). I cannot find a menu or other option that allows that. How do I add a vendor? Please be very specific.

    Hi pastore27-
    You should be able to print documents from webpages using Firefox. The print button should display by default. However, it is possible it was removed during an upgrade or due to custom preferences. The way to fix it:
    # Firefox > View > toolbars > customize
    # Select the printer icon and drag it to your browser window
    I also found a Support article on restoring toolbars, as you said the toolbar was missing:
    [[Back and forward or other toolbar items are missing]]
    I hope that helps!

  • Workflow to add computer to Active Diretory

    I have a mac mini server in our lab with the latest snow leopard server on it.  I've been using it to image our macs in the lab using netboot and it's been working nicely.  I want to expand on it's capabilities and maybe even have it built the whole image on it's own.
    One of the first crucial steps after putting the OS on the mac is connecting it to the active directory server.  Is it possible to create a workflow to do that?  Does anyone have an example of one?  I'm fairly new to automator and workflows so any websites with tutorials would also be useful as well.
    Is it also possible to set up a workflow for when a new user logs in?  When I deploy a mac to a person I have to sit with them for about 10 minutes and walk through some basic configuration.  We set up the password for the screensaver, set up the screensaver, activate filevault, and then configure outlook and communicator for office 2011.  Are their ways to automate that as well?
    Thanks in advance!

    Hi Roie,
    In theory you can use the "Apply System Configuration Settings" feature of SIU to assign a computer name and bind Macs to AD,
    However, in our testing we have not yet seen this feature actually work.
    So we adapted a Unix script instead, packaged it and install the script in our workflow with "Add Packages". Our solution is a bit involved and not for the faint hearted. It would be better if Apple could fix SIU. But check my profile and e-mail me directly if you would like a copy of our naming and binding script.
    One option for handling some of your other Mac desktop mangement issues would be to activate the Workgroup Management feature on your Mac server. This involves binding Macs both to AD and to your Mac server (the so called Goldent Triangle configuration). 
    cheers

  • PeopleSoft Financials: Enable user to add/edit vendors information

    I want to create a user would Add and Edit Vendors information from his account/UserID.
    For that I have created a new User, but not sure what roles/permissions should be assigned to him to enable him to Add information for Vendors.
    Right now if I try to add new vendor from his ID I get Not-Authorized error.
    Please let me know.

    Whenever you run into this issue, look up the content reference for the component in the portal through
    main menu - peopletools - portal - structure and content.
    After you found the content reference click on the edit link.
    In the second tab Security, you will find the permission lists that have access to this content reference/component.
    Assign one of the permission lists to your user and you user will have access to the content reference and component.

  • Workflow step - Add record to mask

    Hi,
    Is there a workflow step that can add a record to a mask? Any ideas on how we can achieve that?
    Thanks.

    TS is correct,
    this may be another solution, but a quite complex and I'm not sure that it works fine for your requirements. Besides, probabily enrichment is not in your MDM package because needs another license. In any case this solution required java customizing.

  • Workflow Problem (Accept the vendor bid).

    Hi Guys,
    I am activating Bid Invitation and Bid submission Using SRM 5.0.
    Now Everything works fine i.e.:
    - Strat purchaser creates Bid Invitation.
    - One step bid invitation workflow is working fine.
    - Approver can able to approve the bid invitation and publish sucessfully.
    - Bidders can view this Bid Invitan and Submit their bids against it.
    - Strat purchaser can see the submitted bids and accept and reject the bids.
    The problem is:
    The accepted bid (by Purchaser) should be approved by the manager.
    The status of bid (submitted by Vendor) is showing as "awaiting for approval" and in Approver preview it is showning the name of the Approver who has to approve that bid.
    But the inbox of that Approver is empty. So approver can not approve that bid and go ahead.
    I have activated the workflow WS79000002 One step approval of bid and start conditions of workflow WS790000002.
    Can you please tell me which workflow , task or assignment I am missing??
    Thanks & Regards,

    Dear Sindy,
    the main question is where you have created the approver allocation, we miss many details:
    1. Workflow step
    - for each step you allocate the step in the worklow builder to the agent
    2. or customizing on vendor side (application)
    - details are needed to be looked for customizing
    I think we need further details how you evaluate the agents.

  • Workflow Manager - Add-WFHost fails with "Could not load file" error

    Hello! I'm not sure that its Sharepoint related topic but..
    I'm trying to install Workflow Manager using Powershell. I'm successfully created ServiceBus farm, create namespace, Add-SBhost etc. Also, i created WF Farm using New-WFFarm.
    Now i'm got SB Configuration and try to add my first host to WF Farm using standard cmdlets:
    $SBClientConfiguration = Get-SBClientConfiguration -Namespaces 'WorkflowDefaultNamespace'
    (it successfuly gives me some endpoint definitions)
    Add-WFHost -WFFarmDBConnectionString $WFFarmDBConStr -RunAsPassword $ServiceAccountPassword -EnableFirewallRules $true -SBClientConfiguration $SBClientConfiguration -CertificateAutoGenerationKey $CertificateAutoGenerationKey
    where
    $WFFarmDBConStr is typical connection string, i also used this to Get-WFFarm with no errors.
    $ServiceAccountPassword and $CertificateAutoGenerationKey are secure strings.
    But trouble appears with SBClientConfiguration, cmdlet returns error:
    "Cannot validate argument on parameter 'SBClientConiguration'. Could not load file or assebly 'Microsoft.ServiceBus, Version=1.8.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=<SomeTokenSymbolsHere> or one of its dependencies. The system cannot
    find the file specified."
    What file it tries to load? I've installed all WorkflowManager binaries with
    webpicmd /Install /Product:WorkflowManagerRefresh key and don't know, what can be cause.

    Hi lehus,
    According to your description, my understanding is that you got an error when you configured Workflow Manager using PowerShell.
    Please try to use the following PowerShell command, compare the result:
    Add-WFHost -WFFarmDBConnectionString $WFFarmDBConStr -RunAsPassword $ServiceAccountPassword -EnableFirewallRules $true -SBClientConfiguration $SBClientConfiguration
    –EnableHttpPort -CertificateAutoGenerationKey $CertificateAutoGenerationKey
    -Verbose
    Check your process as:

    In addition, whether you could install and configure Workflow Manager with Workflow Manager Configuration Wizard. Please have a try as:

  • FCP Workflow: Automatically Add Intro and Closing

    Hi, I recently read some documentation on Final Cut workflows. It mentioned a third-party application that takes the exported clips from FCP, converts the video and automagically adds a series intro and a series closing sequence. I would like to learn what this app is (or something similar). There was no mention of what it is, but I figured someone here would be able to point me the right way...

  • What's the Best Workflow to Add Footage to Existing H.264 files?

    I have some ready-made clips for the Internet already spec'd to H.264 at about 640x480. The audio is AAC. I would like to add bumpers to the beginning and end of these clips. Would you simply import them into FCP, make a 640x480 timeline add the bumpers, render and export? Or, is there a better way?
    I ran a test where I imported the H.264 file into FCP, added my bumpers and re-rendered. The results were not that bad however I'm getting interlacing issues when uploading to Vimeo. I tried using 'Progressive' in Compressor to rid of the of the lines but no luck. Then I took a look at the'De-Interlace' filter in FCP but it appears that the original H.264 file is what contains the lines and the filter doesn't remove them. Any ideas. Here's the result on Vimeo:
    http://vimeo.com/1893904
    In case you're wondering, I no longer have the original, 720x480, SD files. The 640x480, H.264 is all I have to work with.

    Open your main movie and its bumpers in QuickTime Player.
    Make sure the Timeline on your main movie is sitting at frame 1 then click your intro bumper to bring it to the front.
    Press cmd & A keys (select all). Press cmd & C keys (copy). Press Option, cmd and V keys (Add to Movie).
    Move the timeline of your main movie to the last frame then click your outro (is that a word?) bumper to bring it to the front.
    Press cmd & A keys (select all). Press cmd & C keys (copy). Press Option, cmd and V keys (Add to Movie).
    Save As... (makes a new file - better than overwriting the old version.)
    Quick and dirty, but it gets the job done.

    Try this.
    1. Encode one of your bumpers to the same specs (at least the same video/audio codec and frame size) as your ready-made clips.
    2. Open up QuickTime Pro
    3. Open both one of your ready-made clips and one of your bumpers
    4. Copy the bumper and paste it in front of your ready-made H.264 clip
    5. Save as a self-contained QuickTime file, and try uploading it to Vimeo
    As for deinterlacing (and downscaling), have you tried implementing frame controls?

  • B2CBasket- Sales Order  How to add Vendor partner and new line item of SO

    Hi,
    I want to add the following BEFORE the sales order creation process starts:
    Add a VENDOR partner
    Add a new line item to ORDERADM_I
    I suspect in BADI CRM_ISA_BASKET_ITEMS and CRM_ISA_BASKET_HEAD. I have user 'HEAD' to add extension fields but cant figure the creation of NEW partners and NEW line item.
    regards,
    Dave

    Thank you for feedback Shantoor,
    The CRM_ORDER_MAINTAIN need not be called as this FM is called immediately following almost all of the CRM_ISA_* BADI's.
    For clarification I just want to expand on the solution..
    In all of these BADI's SAP uses the CT_INPUT_FIELDS parameter. This is where you should enter WHICH fields you have made changes to in the exit. CRM_ORDER_MAINTAIN uses the same parameter.
    However the challenge is .. WHAT do you enter in the CT_INPUT_FIELDS. This is where you have to follow a strategy. I yused the following:
    1. Looked where the structure was used in programs/class to see how SAP used it
    2. Set breakpoints at the call of the BADI. Check what CT_INPUT_FIELDS content is (SAP uses same technique)and try and replicate for your new entries.
    I hope this helps those that, like me, battled a bit with the use of these BADI's.
