Automatically Workflow status changed to RESERVED status

$

0

Dear all,

 

we have an issue here where UWL in workflow as soon as it goes to approval, in the backend it goes to RESERVED status for the same user(userA). Also workflow is going to only user(userA) and this userA is getting error message in his portal after clicking the UWL saying " This workitem has already being in use by userA" which is the same user.

 

Reserved status is happening as soon as user clicks the UWL in portal. Can anyone kindly help me on why this is happening as we have many cases like this?

 

You can see the attachment with screenshots from portal end. Sorry it’s in Portuguese. You can see 16:36:22 it is in Encerr(Initiated) and when it goes to first level approval, it is automatically changing to Reservado(RESERVED) status at 16:36:30

How is workflow assigned to positions and particular company code / plants

$

Hi Everyone,


We have updated a system with a new company code and corresponding new plants for profit center update. Now, they want the workflow handling of INVOIC, DESADV and ORDRSP to still be maintained. There is an existing workflow for error handling on these messages for the  old company code and plants. The workflow items are sent to certain positions maintained in PPOM. Now, I am requested to create new positions that will receive the notifications for errors on incoming invoices, order responses and dispatch advices for the new company code/plants. Creating new positions and assigning agents to them is quite easy but my problem is where to specify the information about the company code and plants. For the existing positions, only the Basic data tab is maintained where only an abrreviation of the position and its definition need to be entered.


Right now, the workflow items for the new company code and plants are directed to a position that already exists in PPOM before the project. So how can I have the workflow items be directed to a new position that I will create?


I hope someone can provide an answer to this. Thanks!

How to use inbound exit class for more than one workflow step

$

Hi All,

 

 

In Offline Workflow Approval Scenarios where the work items are sent to outlook of non sap users inbox through workitem exit of the respective workflow item. Based on the user reply from outlook email(either approve or reject) which sends an auto reply to Offline user . We configure an inbound exit class and assign the same in the SMICM transaction. Based on the code written using SAP_WAPI function modules in inbound class exit offline user gets the user approval result and performs the action in SAP.

 

My question now Is how can we use this inbound exit class for all the steps of a workflow.

 

For ex: In a workflow I have a decision step followed by an activity step. First I will write the work item exit for the user decision step and inbound exit code for the user decision step and offline user executed the user decision step with approve action.

 

followed by that I have an activity step for that I will code a work item exit for that activity level but how can I user the same inbound exit class for the activity step as well .

 

Quick reply  would be of great  help for me.

Hi Experts,

 

I have a custom Workflow template that needs some changes.

- Change in the BO method code of an existing standard task of this template

- Addition of elements in the main container of this template

- Changing the container bindings for email steps / edit email

 

 

How should I go about doing these changes, please advise

- Once I open the template in SWDD, is it advisable to goto Menu Workflow->Generate Version or directly edit the template and save.

  Which is the best practice / difference it makes ?

- Any specific order that I need to follow while changing the different template components

- While transporting the TR for workflow templates, what should be taken care of ?

    In Production system, version is 0003 and in Dev it is 0004, both with the same dates.

 

Also pls provide any link/document that can guide on the workflow change process, it would be great.

 

Thanks in advance for your time and inputs !

 

Regards,

Mirza.

Hi Experts,

               I have devleope a workflow; which has total 3 steps. I want to set back the control to get approvers (just like goto statement) after step "chamber of commerce display) again and again until my condition is met. I don't want to use a loop, because i am selecting the approver one by one in get_approver step.

It is possible in workflows that we have goto statement which send back the control to any step which is our requirement

Issue with not getting mail in sost for the PR Approvers

$
0
0

Hi all,

 

I have the following requirement

 

Currently, requisitioner receives workflow email notification each time the PR has been released. If a PR has 3 approvers, the requisitioner receives 3 identical emails. The problem is that from the email alone, the requisitioner does not know if the PR has been fully released or not. After the first email, requisitioner may try to create the PO when in fact the PR is not fully approved yet.


The case here is when the requisition is created, the mail is sent to first approver to release the requisition and when the first approver releases, mail is sent to next approver and so till all the approvers approve, finally after all the approvals it is sent to requisitioner.


For this I have created an activity GET PR status where i am checking the condition based on release indicator.

 

 

When the release indicator is '2' then the final notification is sent to the requisitioner.

 

 

The process is working fine in dev system. When there are three approvers and all the approvers have same mail Id when i create the requisition and release manually in me55, I am able to see the mail in sost. This is actually done after running the batch program. But when the approvers have different mail Id's im able to see in swia but not in sost.

 

 

 

Any help is appreciated.

 

 

Thanks

I have copied the standard workflow WS20000075 for PO approval on Release step.

I went thru few SCN post, did check all the Linkages as said, everything seems to be ok. but still cannot trigger the workflow.

 

need guidance as to where I may be going wrong.

How to stop workflow from generating new workitem id whenever user clicks on the back button

$
0
0

Hi All, 

 

My requirement is to stop workflow from generating W2 and keep W1 in READY state when user clicks on back button. For eg.

 

Workflow is triggered and email is sent to user A. workitem W1 is created in READY state.

User A opens workitem W1 and does not take any action and clickson BACK Button.

This again generated another workitem W2 in ready state and W1 now shows COMPLETED state.

 

 

 

 

 

We have identified the condition to know when user clicks on back button: which is WE CHECK next state.

If its Blank, then it is this condition.

This is required since we also have another workflow for deadline monitoring which generates new deadline notification when user clicks on back button.

Please give suggestions for this requirement.

I have already tried manually changing status from COMPLETED  TO READY via program exit event AFTER_EXECUTION but it dumps (obviously)

 

I am attaching the screen shot of the workflow template.

Terminate parallel tasks during looping for a certain condition

$
0
0

Hi guys,

 

I have the following case:

There is a referenced sub process in my process flow, configured with looping. Hence several parallel tasks should be started.The idea is to continue the main process flow only if all parallel tasks have been approved by their processors or cancel all tasks with status "In progress" if one of the processors cancel his task.

I need some ideas for how to achieve that.

What I have tried so far is to check the user action within the referenced sub process and if it is reject I am exiting the sub process through a critical escalation end set to terminating. I was expecting that that the loop will be broken, all pending tasks in UWL will be cancelled and the process flow will continue, but it does not do this. What happens is that the process flow continues, but the created parallel tasks are left in the UWL with status "In Progress".

 

I will really appreciate your ideas on how I can achieve the above.

 

Thank you very much in advance.

 

Best Regards,
