JV Approval Workflow

Former Member — Fri, 11 May 2007 08:11:34 GMT

Dear Experts,

I need to create Appproval workflow for Journal Voucher. I had gone through the docuemnts in SPRO - financial accounting - tools - workflows.

I have created a small custom workflow with FIPP - Completed as triggering event. But i feel we can use the std workflow template provided by SAP, but dont know which one to select and how to proceed. If anyone has information, please guide me.

Any kind of help is highly appreciated.

Regards,

Lakshmi

That's good news for you, but for others it would be even better news if you described your solution - even just in a couple of sentences.

As it is now, we have a question marked as answered, but when people search the forum's previously answered questions they find an answered question with no information about the solution/answer.

Hi Lakshmi,

I am having a challenge with JV approval workflow myself and I'm wondering if you can help. Essentially, I need users to be able to post JVs below the threshold amount, and park (send for release) ones above the threshold. I just posted a note, the contents of which are copied below. Any guidance you can provide would be much appreciated.

Thanks in advance,

Kathryn

Our objective is to have senior accounting personnel approve/release journal entries that exceed a certain value, say $100,000. We have configured the release function for parked documents, using workflow WS10000051 with business object 'FIPP', event "COMPLETED" and release amount of $100,000. However, this appears to assume that staff have authorization only for parking, because if you have posting authorization, nothing stops you from posting a document over $100,000. It seems illogical that you have to exceed a certain $ value before the release will trigger, but if your document is below the amount, you can't post it because you can only park.

In order to avoid making approvers release every single journal entry, what we want is for users to be able to post any document below $100,000.00, but be forced to park ( save as completed) all documents >/= this limit. We tried setting up a validation on the document amount, but the error message forces us to exit completely, i.e. doesn't allow us to park the document.

Is there perhaps a different workflow that triggers at the point of posting, rather than parking, that will accomplish what we want?

Thanks,

Kathryn
