Status change via action

[Former Member]

Hi all,

I want a new status "question to requestor" which can be set in status "to be approved" and afterwards can set the status back to "to be approved".

Current Status profile:

10 to be approved 10 10

30 withdrawn 30 30

40 approved 40 40

...

Would something like:

20 question to requestor 10 20

make sense?

What do I have to set in the Status attributes?

For the new action can I use method "HF_SET_STATUS" with Expression "USER_STATUS" and initial value "E000x" (my new status)?

I tried it already but get an error in my new status: "document is being distributed - changes are not possible"?

Thanks in advance.

Hi.

Goto status maintenance in customizing, select your profile, double click your new status and set

"To be distributed" to "forbidden" and "no action"

Further more you should set your new status to

20 question to requestor 20 20 and define appropriate conditions.

This will solve your problem

Hi,

I defined condition "Only status 'Zu genehmigen'".

But when I'm now in status "question" I can only change to status "confirms realization", and not back to "authorize change request"?

Edit: it should be like a loop between this 2 statuses!

Edit: got it working by creating another status to go back to initial status 'to be approved'.
