SAP C4C Approval not necessary

[DAcker]

Hi all,

how to set the approval status to "approval not necessary"?

We have a certain approval process with some criteria which opportunities need approval. But currently, the others the button "send to approval" is just greyed out. I would be nicer to see that this business object (in my case: opportunity) don't need an approval.

So I recognized that there is an approval status and the value "approval not necessary" existis as value. How to set this?

Thanks & best regards,

Deborah

As in KBA 2681410 describes, it works differently as expected from me...

• Approval Not Necessary: The status will be true if:

1. Opportunity is sent for approval.
2. Sent back for revision by the approver.
3. A change in the opportunity does not meet the approval conditions.
4. System automatically change the status to "Approval Not Necessary”.

If you setup the approval process and you submit the opportunity to approval, the system checks in the background if any of the approval steps defined fit to the opportunity data.

If no conditions fits, the approval status is automatically set to "no approval necessary" by the system.

Do you know how to change that stefanieehlert ?

Hi Deborah Albrecht,

Check if any field level rule is assigned to the action" Submit for approval" in opportunity if u are using manual submission.
