Parallel Approval of Multiple Line Items Simultaneously in BRF - SRM

[former_member196491]

Hi Friends,

   We have developed our Schema . Which has 4 Approval levels.

Issue is:

The Workflow does not go to the 2nd Approver , until all the 1st Level Approvers of the  Shopping Cart Approves it.

Ex:

My Shopping has 2 Line items. Each Line Item has 3 approvers each in 3 different Process Levels.

Line Item 1 -- Project Level -- APP01

                      Category Level-- APP02

                      Finance Level -- APP03

Line Item 2 -- Project Level -- APP07

                      Category Level -- APP05

                      Finance Level -- APP09

Until both Approvers of Project Level ( APP01 & APP07 ) , executes .Neither of Category Level ( APP02 & APP05 ) can execute the Shopping cart.

We need that the Category Approvers should be able to Approve/Reject once the line items Project Level is done.

Need your assistance.

Regards,

Jagan

Thanks Hayashi.. for your reply..

We have achieved this by doing the coding in the Agent Determination Badi.

AREA GUID1 --> ITEM1 -- > 1st Approver

                            ITEM2 -->1st Approver

AREA GUID2 --> ITEM1 --> 2nd Approver

                            ITEM2 --> 2nd Approver.

Created a Custom table which will have the above fileds along with Level GUID's.

And then have used the ADHOC_SAVE  & ADHOC_READ function modules to Map and read the above mappings dynamically.

Now the issue is resolved.

Hello Jaganath,

solution you described does not correspond to your initial request...

The parallel approval is so common.

It is recommended that SAP should enhance this.

The only solution is to implement dynamic approver determination , which means development is needed. That means at the first time only the APP01 and APP07 is determined, after APP01 or APP07 approved, the other one and the others approvers are determined.

Hello Jagan,

your request is not covered by the SRM standard: all decision sets for an approval level must have a decision before being able to trigger next approval level.
