Hello
We are using standard sap workflow for PR release strategy.It is limited to 8 release levels.
We have a requirement for more 12 levels,
According to web,we can do it thru ABAP customized Z tables.Can some one ,who has done it share his
experience.
Thanks
Hello Nouman Rashid !
Create a ztable with 2 columns : release level and agent id
In the workflow, create a loop.This loop should go around 12 times.As first step in loop, create a container step with initial value 0 and should get increment by 1 during each iteration of the loop.Container step is used to maintain release level.The second step should be a background task to which release level is passed and the method picks the agent from ztable.As third step, create a a task calls the method DISPLAY of business object BUS2105.To this task pass, the agent picked up by the previous step.
As fourth step, create a user decision step with "Release" and "Do not release" options.To this step, pass the same agent as passed to third step.Under "Do not release" branch maintain a process control step with function "Complete workflow".
Outside the loop, call the function module in background that releases the purchase requisition.
Still, I would suggest you to stick to maximum 8 release levels.

Hello Suresh!
Thanks a lot for your quick reply-I will make a test workflow as per your guidance.
Kindly clear my few questions:
According to your opinion
,We will not be using standard sap release strategy workflow at all .What I have found on net is that I should
use First 8 release level based on standard PR workflow and and the last four based on z table. Meaning after 8 levels
I should call my custom z table workflow.Is this feasible?
You are right.We should stick to 8 levels.But things are not in ABAPers control all the time.
Thanks Again
Nouman
Hello Nouman Rashid !
As per your question,in my understanding after 8 release levels the purchase requisition will get released.
Still, check with your functional consultant whether the release of purchase requisition document can be avoided after 8 level approval so as to pick next 4 level approval from ztable.

S.Suresh
thanks a lot
