Modify Parked Document Options based on Document Type

former_member800454 — Fri, 26 Sep 2008 19:56:21 GMT

We are having a program create a specific document type and then kick of workflow to get document approved and posted. Until document is posted we do not want anyone to be able to edit (via menu options, change, delete, post, etc.) from FBV2 or FBV3, etc. Does anyone have a simple solution as to maybe how to gray out these options on the menu so that they will be disabled for this specific document type?

Thanks .

You can use a validation rule to check the calling transaction.

Thanks Rob. I have seen validations from some years back used, but I personally have not programmed any. Those I saw were on the document itself, versus the transaction. We are now on release ECC 6.0 . Do you have any starter steps? We would like the disabling to happen prior to the transaction being brought up.

The validation is performed on the document not the transaction. It just checks that the calling transaction is valid for whatever conditions you have set. Or it checks whatever you need to check.

In the IMG, check the documentation for OB28.

For now, we just made the "service type" blank for WF_START in table SGOSATTR.
