PO not require approval when SC is already approved

[matias_z]

Hi,

This is my scenario:

I'm working with SRM 7.0.

When a PO is created after a Catalog Shopping cart is approved, PO is going to the approvals.

But, actually this PO should not go to the approvals because it is already approved in the shopping cart and is supposed to create a PO without approval.

So, is there a way to know if the PO is created based on a SC that was previously approved? Or is there a way to know if a PO is created based on a Catalog based SC (because our SC only requiere approval when is a catalog based SC, so I could solve this problem knowing this)?

Thanks!!!!

Matias.

Hi,

You can find CATALOGID field in item level.

I would implement some custom BRF expression which checks all item have CATALOGID value if workflow framework is Process-Controlled Workflow.

Thanks Masa, but what if a PO is created without a SC. In that case I will also need approval in the PO. Is there a way to know if the PO is based on a SC or not?

Hi,

You can check it also in custom BRF expression.

If you call the FM BBP_PD_PO_GETDETAIL in custom BRF expression, you can get SRC_OBJECT_TYPE=BUS2121001.
