Hi,

We have different approver roles in SRM 7.0. Some approvers can edit the SC item values during approval process.

How to control this in SRM 7.0?

Hi,

Since you are using application control workflow mechanism, to change the field attributes are remain same.. if you give option medium in the security level of the user, if he / she change the quantity or price the workflow will restart ..

Hi,

There is an option to do this via custom development, with which you can open only certain fields for the approvers before they approve the SC..

Description:

You need to develop a class in which you can control the metadata properties as follows..

cs_metadata-visible = 'X'.

cs_metadata-enabled = 'X'.

cs_metadata-required = ' '.

Once the class where developed, you need to map that class with the corresponding field name in the following configuration..

Cross-Application Basic Settings -> Extensions and Field Control (Personalization) -> Configure Field Control -> Configure control for Fields on Header Level or Configure control for Fields on Item Level

That's it your done..

Thanks!!
