PR Workflow

Dear SAP experts

If we have scenario that if one of release approver 's positions has no user ID then the workitem should send to next approver in release

how we can implement this scenario

system S4/ Hana 1709 SP2

If this were a custom workflow solution, I would ask the workflow developer to detect if there was no user associated with Level N release, and if there is no user, allow the workflow to continue to Level N+1.

I'd take a look around at what workflows are available for your system (use transaction SWO1 to find the business object and then do a where-used). You may not be able to use SAP delivered workflows 'out of the box' but they will give you a good idea of how they work, and what you would need to change (ie: copy the SAP delivered WF and enhance it to your needs).

Good luck,

Thank you Nawa.

the requirement is not send it to two user, but yes we need to send it to next approver incase of agent not found.

yes I will customized workflow , but if I add step with custom task to get next approver , how can I catch the in approve step to send the workitem to next approver

or is there a way to control that from configuration

I refer to the link but no clue for my requirement

Hi,

I don't think you can do it standard way , Released strategy you can control by through workflow and authorization. but your senario im not sure do it with current workflow. you have to customize the workflow. you need to find the place where select agent and enhance it according to your requirement. you can try this program-RSWUWFML2 , copy and modify first. if its not work you have to customized workflow. Using this program will select the agent , you can select the agent what you need. but when you execute this program you have to be careful it will send mail to all if you not use proper parameter.

I did little bit same thing for the PO approval , for that i have to customized both workflow and this program.

kindly follow this link it may help you to customized PR workflow.

HI,

You can always send the work item for two user , if anyone approve it will be go to next step. This can do with standard configuration . If user not available you have to customized the workflow or you have to enhance workflow to get user ID for the next approver and send it. Hope bellow link may help for you for the information.
