Approve a document via Service Layer - SAP B1

[claudiocalabresi]

Dear Expert,

I need to approve a document via Service Layer.
The API call below allows me to approve a document using the user currently logged-in (the user of the current Service Layer session).

PATCH https://myhost:50000/b1s/v1/ApprovalRequests(1)

{
"ApprovalRequestDecisions": [
{
"Status": "ardApproved",
"Remarks": "Approved - OK"
}
]
}

How can I approve a document assigned to another user please?
Where can I find documentation for the ApprovalRequestDecisions API call please?

I'm using FP2202 HF1.

Thank you,
Best Regards,
Claudio

Hi claudiocalabresi,

Use ApproverUserName and ApproverPassword for the same.

{
    "ApprovalRequestDecisions": [
        {
            "Status": "ardApproved",
            "ApproverUserName": "User1",
            "ApproverPassword": "User1Password",
            "Remarks": "Approved - OK"
        }
    ]
}

Hope it helps!

Kind regards,

Hi Ankit, Thank you for your reply. Unfortunately I do not have access to the ApproverPassword. The OUSR table holds the encrypted version. Is there a workaround please? Additionally, could you provide the API body format when the 'SAP Business One Authentication Server' identity provider is enabled please? Thank you again, Kind Regards, Claudio

Hi! Is there a way to update the main "Remarks" field (OWDD."Remarks")? The "ApprovalRequestDecisions" method defines a "Remark" for the approval team, but how can I set the "Remark" for the requester? I used the PATCH https://localhost:50000/b1s/v1/ApprovalRequests(123) { "ApprovalRequestLines": [ { "StageCode": 3, "Status": "ardPending", "UserID": 1 } ], "CurrentStage": 3, "IsDraft": "Y", "ObjectEntry": 14, "ObjectType": "112", "OriginatorID": 38, "Remarks": "Please Approve, dear Master", "Status": "arsPending" } , but is not working, any ideas? Regards!
