XML APPROVAL PROCESS

Hello Experts,
I wonder if it is possible to enable approval process for a folder and all the folders that in it. i mean when i enable approval and set the steps the same approval process should be enabled. if this isn't possible then this is ridiculous because i will have to open all the folders and set the approval seperately. Plz help me with this.I m very thankful to u.
Any helpful answers will be regarded with points.

Hi Rajat,
I have never tried this.
But, must say its a good thought.
What I can say is : Try mapping a folder(having subfolders) to EP by making a File Repository Manager.
Now put a document in one of the sub folders and see what happens.
There can be two possibilities:
1)Either the FRM will recognize the document and will send for approval
2)Or it will not recognise the sub folders.
I am not in access to a EP server presently.
Please try this and reply back.
I hope it helps.
Regards,
Sumit

  • Approval process in XML forms

    Hi,
    I am implementing XML forms with approval process.UI have created a news. and it goes to the folder /documents/news2
    For Folder "News2" I have permission to one USER "Preeti " as approver.Everyone is Read access
    Service Permissions that "Preeti" has Full control.and evryone "Unsubscribe only"I could not see option no service
    Approval process has step of approving from user "Preeti"
    I could now see the edit delete approval in the iview but for the authors and users with system admin role also the iView has option of Submit for approval and Skip approval.
    Also I tried creating new user and for that the NEwsApproval iView does not show the link to create news.as shown in your fig.
    So I want that the author only should see teh link submit approval and not skip approval.All other users even though a system admin but not a approver should not see that Submit approval.
    Please request you to help me.

    Hi Preeti,
                    To see the 'New' link the user should have write access to that folder. Only then they can create xml items using the form.
                    If you dont want to show the skip approval link to any one including admin, you can advance copy the layout set "NewsExplorer" and remove the command from resource command group.
                   The approver also gets the submit for approval option and if he selects it, the document is sent to his own UWL for approval, if he is the only approver, otherwise sent to the next level approver.

    Hi,
    I have run into the same problem with SOA 11.1.1.5 version. In my case after fixing the following two errors it seems to work fine.
    If you have followed the guide, there must be some errors:
    First the java code if copied then contains an extra enter value:
    Instead of:
    "try {
    System.out.println("Prototype for invoking an OIM API from a SOA Composite");
    System.out.println("RTM Usecase: Self Registration Approval by Organization
    Administrator");"
    Use the following:
    "try {
    System.out.println("Prototype for invoking an OIM API from a SOA Composite");
    System.out.println("RTM Usecase: Self Registration Approval by Organization Administrator");"
    The other error is that you should not use <BEAHOME>/oracle_common/modules/oracle.jps_11.1.1/jps-manifest.jar, but the <BEAHOME>/oracle_common/modules/oracle.jps_11.1.1/jps-api.jar in jdeveloper. After these the deployment to the application server works fine for me.

    you are inserting a value too large for REQUEST_APPROVALS.APPROVAL_STATUS column. It should contain values like COMPLETED, approved, rejected etc... Check your custom approval process again.

  • Approval process monitor status turn to "Initiated" instead of "Pending", so awe is not routed

    When I submit a transaction, after successful submission in approval process monitor the status has turn "Initiated" instead of "Pending". That's why it's showing "Not Routed" for the next approving person. So that worklist is not populated.
    Please suggest me to resolve this issue.
    Process Monitor as follows after submission:
    Separation Approval Process (Stage)
    Initiated (Monitor status)
    Approval Routing from Unit HR (Path)
    Not Routed    (Step)                                                    Not Routed      (Step)
    Multiple Approvers                                                     Multiple Approvers
    STATEHR ROLEUSER SEPARATION                              Central Hr
    (Userlist)                                                                        (Userlist)

    Looking at the error message "The Network Adapter could not establish the connection" , It appears hostname and port may be incorrect. Review the targets.xml under E:\oracle\product\10.2.0\db_1\SAP_solman_SDB\emd and
    emoms.properties under E:\oracle\product\10.2.0\db_1\SAP_solman_SDB\config folder to make sure host ( sap_solman) and port (1527) are correct.
    As far as setting the environment variables goes, you can go to control panel -> system -> advanced -> environment variables and set the ORACLE_HOME and ORACLE_SID

  • Approval process in update user workflow

    Hi
    I have read in the document Administrative Guide that by default, the approval process is set only for user creation. and the same does not work for update and delete operations on user, unless we customize the code.
    Does any one of you have any idea as to what customization needs to be done for successful approval process for updates also. I have set approvers for resources.
    Thanks
    Bushra

    1. backup the existing Update user workflow as an xml file
    2. Copy paste the same in the BPE.
    3. Save the copy as a new object with a different name.
    4. Edit the new workflow as follows:
    4.1 Create new activity
    4.2 In the new activity, add a variable with some name
    4.3 create a new action, and let that action be a subprocess. For that subprocess, browse and choose 'Approval' as the action.
    4.4 Add a argument as name=approvalForm and value=<name of approval form>
    4.5 Include argument user=$(user), etc. (Check the original approval workflow to see what the names of the arguments are)
    4.6 For return to=name of the variable declared, from=approved
    4.7 Add a 'isTrue' condition for the variable declared.
    5. Make the appropriate transitions, and ur ready to go.
    Let me know if this helps. I can post some skeleton code tomorrow. I need to work on it. Drop a line at [email protected]

  • "Approval Process Overview" in ECC.

    We have SRM 7.0 running in Classic scenario. We have a requirement to see the "Approval Process Overview" Log in the ECC Puchase requistion generated after the approvals are completed in SRM. (preferably at Header)
    What are the options available for us to be able to do that ?
    There is a Download XML in the Approval process Data field, Can it be changed to Download as Excel, and an excel file passed as an attachment to the Shopping cart and Purchase Requisition ?

    The intent behind this scenarios is to split the Approval process in two parts,
    a) Part 1: SC Creator creates Shopping Cart and routes for approval on a Technical Basis. Once all technical approvals are completed and Shopping Cart is approved a PR is created with Release Strategy in ECC.
    b) Part 2: Financial approver would approve the PR in ECC on the basis of Amount against release strategy. The requirement is for the financial approver in ECC to have visibility on who has Technically approved the Shopping cart without loging into SRM.
    Once the financial approver validates that the Shopping cart was approved by a set of people, he goes ahead and releases it in ECC for further processing.
    Our challenge is to get the approval lprocess overview from SRM to ECC.

  • Approval process creation steps using JDeveloper in OIM 11g R2

    Hi,
    Please help me to create approval process creation using JDeveloper and how to use the approval process in OIM provision in OIM 11g R2.
    Thanks in Advace,
    srini

    refer developer's guide to get the detailed steps. http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E27559_01/dev.1112/e27150/request.htm#BABFFJDH
    Also refer OBE tutorial http://www.oracle.com/webfolder/technetwork/tutorials/obe/fmw/oim/oim_11g/Custom_Approval_Process_for_Resource_Request/custom_approval_process_for_resource_provision.htm#t3
    There will be slight changes in the steps as this OBE is for 11gR1.
    High level steps:
    Create a new application using the following command
    ant -f <OIM_HOME>/server/workflows/new-workflow/new_project.xml.
    It will be created in OIM_HOME/workflows/new-workflow/process-template/ directory
    Openthe .jws file in jdeveloper and edit the default human task and add whatever logic is needed.
    Then deploy the composite after which you need to create an approval policy and link the SOA composite created

  • Approval Process through mail in OIM

    Hi,
    I need your views for the best way to meet this requirement:
    Let's say a user is provisioned to a resource and resource has been configured with a approval process. The System Administrator 'xelsysadm' approval has been set to auto-complete so that step of approval is done automatically and the approval goes to the main approver of the resource. Now i require to send the requests generated in last 30 minutes only which are meant for an approver by grouping them and then sending them in a mail in HTML format to take further action.
    Please do reply by your views on how to implement this.
    Thanks

    Thanks for the idea,
    I need your help as i am facing issues in implementing it.
    For Initializing the Factory Class with a Digital Signature i used this code
    ConfigurationClient.ComplexSetting config = ConfigurationClient.getComplexSettingByPath("Discovery.CoreServer");
    final Hashtable env = config.getAllSettings();
    tcSignatureMessage moSignature = tcCryptoUtil.sign("xelsysadm","PrivateKey");
    tcUtilityFactory m_utilFactory = new tcUtilityFactory(env, moSignature);
    and updated the xlconfig.xml file as such
    <KeyStore>
         <Location>.xlkeystore</Location>
         <Password encrypted="true">JfDl5Dgc48/6pVaOHW+6Qg==</Password>
         <Type>JKS</Type>
         <Provider>sun.security.provider.Sun</Provider>
    </KeyStore>
    <Keys>
         <PrivateKey>
              <Alias>xell</Alias>
              <Password encrypted="true">JfDl5Dgc48/6pVaOHW+6Qg==</Password>
         </PrivateKey>
    </Keys>
    But on executing the code this error is displayed:
    com.thortech.xl.crypto.tcCryptoException: KeyStore File : .\config\xl.keystore missing.
         at com.thortech.xl.crypto.tcCryptoHelper.loadKeyStore(Unknown Source)
         at com.thortech.xl.crypto.tcDefaultSignatureImpl.initKeyStore(Unknown Source)
         at com.thortech.xl.crypto.tcDefaultSignatureImpl.sign(Unknown Source)
         at com.thortech.xl.crypto.tcCryptoUtil.sign(Unknown Source)
    at com.reconciliation.UserReconciliation.connect(UserReconciliation.java:49) (this is line tcSignatureMessage moSignature = tcCryptoUtil.sign("xelsysadm","PrivateKey"); of the code)
    What i observed is that the keystore file it is searching for .\config\xl.keystore is not there as it is .xlkeystore in config and the same is mentioned in the config file also.
    Can you please tell me in what step i am wrong or if there is anything that i am missing.
    Thanks

  • Approved invoices can not be edited  - Approval process

    Hi Experts -
    I have recently raised an incident with SAP about Approval process - the complete message and support reply is as follows - but i believe we need a change in the approval process - if the approval required is only one but you have defined two people (Either or OR) in the approver list - the system should allow the document to be edited if one of the approvers reject it.
    please let me know and i believe we need  a change in design - unless otherwise a solid reason is given to justify the existing design
    10.07.2009 10:32 Description (English) by SRS Manian
         We have created approval procedure for all the invoices which are entered into the system., The
    'Accts' user enters the invoice into the system - the invoice comes for approval to 'Manager' user.
    When the Manager opens the invoice via Alert window - he/she wants to modify certain information
    (lines as well as Sales person) and approve it.
    The invoice which gets opened from the alert window - does not allow the user 'Manager' to modify at
    all. All the information on the invoice are greyed out.
    The system should allow the user 'Manager' to modify the information. Since the manager has full
    authorization to the system.

    10.07.2009 10:59 Reply to Reporter by SAP
         Dear Manian,
    Thank you for contacting us.
    When the originator sends the document for manager's approval, note that the at that stage, the document is still in the 'Approval Process'. This is because the system is waiting for the 'Manager' to 'Approve or Reject' the document. Hence, looking at the Document, it is still in 'Draft - Pending' Status.
    When the document is in 'Draft-Pending' Status, the document is not available for editing, because the system considers that it is still in the waiting process. In your case, the manager cannot edit t he document.
    To amend the document, an action is required from the approver either to reject it first. Once rejected, it can be amended and re-sent for approval.

         Thanks for the reply. The scenario is when the Manager receives the
    document for approval, he wanted to edit and add it. Your reply (and
    documentations) states that it needs to be rejected first before it is
    available for editing. When it is gets rejected - the person who
    orignated the document gets an alert and he can edit it. Here the
    Manager must get an alert so that he can edit the Rejected document.
    When the 'manager' rejects the document, and goes back to the alert
    window to open the document - it is still greyed out !!
    How does the 'manager' reject the document and edits it ?
    regards

         Dear Manian,
    If after the Manager rejects it and still the document is not editable (greyed out), it means that the document may still be in the 'Approval Process'. When it is greyed out, what is the status of the document in the header? Does it say 'Rejected' or 'Pending'?
    If it is still in 'Pending' mode, please verify the number of 'Approvers' set in the 'Stages' tab of the 'Approval Template - Setup' window. If there is more than one user listed as 'Approver', and o nly 1 approval is required, the system provides an opportunity to other 'Approvers' to approve or reject the document. If in your case, the number of approvers is 2, and manager 'rejected' it, the sys tem still keeps the document in Pending status as it waits for another approver's decision to reject or approve it.
    Also, verify the number of 'Approvals' required. If the number of 'Approvers' who have not rendered their decision is greater than or equal to the 'Approvals' required (e.g. approvers - 2, required ap provals - 2) the system keeps the document within the approval process. This is to allow the other 'Approvers' to decide on the document.
    I hope this clarifies the behaviour. If you can provide us a step by step screenshot of the issue, this may help us to provide a more accurate response.

         Dear Manian,
    I'm trying to call you but there was no response on your mobile.
    When the header says 'Pending', then it means the document is still within the approval process. Please check the Approval Template and see the number of approvers and the number of approvals require d.
    The number of approvals and approvers may be greater than 1. In this case, the system waits for other approvers to approve or reject the document. Once all the approvers have rejected the document, th en the document will be released and available for editing.

         Hi:
    Thanks for the reply - i tried this and found out the following:
    1 - In the approval templates - we had mentioned number of approvals
    required as '1'.
    2 - in the number of approvers - we had mentioned two users
    Though the template requires only one approvals (Either or OR) the system
    expects both of them to approve or reject -
    Can u please let me why is this behaving like this - or is this is the
    way it is designed ? - if this is the way it is designed - i beleive it
    is wrong - weneed to give a solution to the customer

         Dear Manian,
    Thank you for the information. The behaviour is a current system definition documented as per Note 1321234. I have attached the said Note for your reference. When only 1 approval is required and there are 2 or more persons are allowed to approve the document, the document does not get automatically rejected when 1 person 'rejects' it. The system waits for other approvers to render their decision b ecause a person may still approve or reject the document.
    The design is not an application error. If you would like to change this design, please post your requirement in our SAP Business One Product Development Collaboration

    Hi Gordon - thanks for the reply - i am sorry i never realized that the message i raised could be messed up like this - the following is a clear message with some paragraphs:
    Hi Experts - I have recently raised an incident with SAP about Approval process - the complete message and support reply is as follows - but i believe we need a change in the approval process - if the approval required is only one but you have defined two people (Either or OR) in the approver list - the system should allow the document to be edited if one of the approvers reject it. please let me know and i believe we need a change in design - unless otherwise a solid reason is given to justify the existing design
    SRS Manian We have created approval procedure for all the invoices which are entered into the system., The 'Accts' user enters the invoice into the system - the invoice comes for approval to 'Manager' user. When the Manager opens the invoice via Alert window - he/she wants to modify certain information (lines as well as Sales person) and approve it. The invoice which gets opened from the alert window - does not allow the user 'Manager' to modify at all. All the information on the invoice are greyed out. The system should allow the user 'Manager' to modify the information. Since the manager has full authorization to the system.
    Reply to Reporter by SAP Dear Manian,
    Thank you for contacting us. When the originator sends the document for manager's approval, note that the at that stage, the document is still in the 'Approval Process'. This is because the system is waiting for the 'Manager' to 'Approve or Reject' the document. Hence, looking at the Document, it is still in 'Draft - Pending' Status. When the document is in 'Draft-Pending' Status, the document is not available for editing, because the system considers that it is still in the waiting process. In your case, the manager cannot edit t he document. To amend the document, an action is required from the approver either to reject it first. Once rejected, it can be amended and re-sent for approval. I have checked our knowledge base and noted that there is an article which describes the approval process. Please refer to the Expert on Phone Wiki Article (March 2009) with title: Why a draft documen t in an approval process cannot be modified by the originator? The link will provide the explanation:

  • Approval process (Release strategy of scheduling agreement)

    Hi,
    Recently we are trying to implement the approval process of scheduling agreements.
    Client requirement is when ever there is a change in price irrespective of the following
    1. Retrospective price change in any line item
    2. Current price change in any line item
    3. Future price updation in SA in any line item
    4. New addition of line item
    the system should trigger the release process (i.e. Approval process).
    Our idea is to design the approval process based on document type and net value of SA.  Based on which trigger should happened.  But when we test it we find the following issues.
    1. Trigger is not happening for future date price change or price for new period as the net value of SA is based on validity time.
    Becuase the net value change will happen only on that onwards..
    Also we are not using any cumulative pallned values in agreements.
    Any can suggest the best solution to over come this..or Any user exit is avaliable to handle this issue.
    regards,
    K.Sundaresan.

    Below are the (changed) item fields :
    Purchasing Document Item Change Date   AEDAT
    Item Delivery Date   EINDT
    Schedule Line is "Fixed  "FIXKZ
    Below are the (changed) header fields :
    Release Indicator: Purchasing Document  FRGKE
    Release status  FRGZU
    Purchasing document processing state PROCSTAT
    Item and header changes have same "Change document number " and transaction code "ME38" , this happened only in some cases,Rel Strategy is on  document type level ,I am also confused on this .
      Please assist  on this

  • How to use a pwa group in CREATE A TASK PROCESS in SPD 2013 for project server workflow approval process

    I am working on a Project Server 2013 workflow. I am creating this using Sharepoint Designer 2013. In this workflow I am using approval process at one stage. I have created a security group SalesManagers in PWA. I want to use this group for workflow approval
    process. I want all users of this group get approval tasks. 
    For this I used START A TASK PROCESS activity in the SP Designer. I clicked on
    this user and created task process. But here I could not find SalesManager group which I created in PWA. I was only able to find the users. I can also see
    Administrators for PWA . But couldnot find SalesManager or any other security group created in pwa.
    Can anyone suggest how I can get the security group created in pwa.

    NBDevelopment,
    I believe SPD only recognizes the SharePoint Groups and not the project server security groups.
    The Administrators for PWA, and few other groups like Project Managers for PWA etc., are synced SharePoint Groups with the security groups, which is why they show up in SPD.
    You could create a SharePoint Group for the Sales Managers group and use that in SPD.
    Cheers,
