Recipients based on SuccessFactors Role Based Permission

[idefix]

In SuccessFactors we have Role based Permission to determine who have permission as a approver in workflow.

How can we implement this in SAP Process Automation?

In SAP Process Automation, there is a field "Recipients" -> Groups. But I can only enter list of emails, instead of a group like in SF.

How can I get the same permission group as in SF to put in the Recipient Group Field?

Thank you

The SCIM Interface for SFSF that we had them build for myHome/FLP that exposes the RBP as groups in SCIM. You can read more about that here

Hi Edwin and Archana,

we are trying to achieve the same. Our agent determination API returns a JSON data of the following format. Is there a way to assign the EmailID field of this output so SPA notifies all 3 of these recipients?

{

"Agents" : [ { "UserName": "user1", "EmailID": "user1@xyz.com" },

{ "UserName": "user2", "EmailID": "user2@xyz.com" },

{ "UserName": "user3", "EmailID": "user3@xyz.com" } ]

}

Thanks

Sudarshan

Hello Edwin,

In that case, you can directly map the List output from the API call to the form recipient. You can also assign List output to the recipient. See the help documentation for more

We released this feature in March itself

Hi Archana,

Thank you for the reply. Do you mean that I should create action project to get data from API and map the API response to form recipient? Im still wondering how to map the result to form recipient. The API response is in ODATA format, but the recipient field requires list of string.

Another question, do I need to create a action project in BPA for each SuccessFactor group?

Thank you.

Edwin

Hello Edwin,

In this case, you have to call an API in SuccessFactors which can give you the single or list of approvers, and then you can assign that single or list of approvers in user task recipient. Hope that helps.

Hi Archana,

Thank you. I am familiar with how to call API in SF to get the list of approver. But I' not familiar with how to assign that list approves in task recipients. Could you help me with that? Because the recipients field is text field and according to the guide we should enter multiple email addresses separated by comma manually.

Kind regards,

Edwin
