hi,

we are facing work flow issue.

In org structure,say there is 2 departments say DEP1 and DEP2.

DEP1 having buyers for Stationary items and Dep2 having buyers

for Tools items. for one step approval respective department

head will approve the shopping cart.

Problem is if i want to use 2 step approval

suppose if Stationary item is required for Dept2 user,shopping

cart should approve from first dept2 approver and second level DEP1

buyer. How to achive this Parallel approval process.or

we are using application controlled work flow(SrM7), is there any

solution if i use process contrlled work flow? or

if i change org structure it will work?

pl suggest

Hi Rami,

if you use process controlled workflow available in SRM7, you can easily implement the scenario. Using process schema evaluation, you can implement two different schema for department 1 and department 2 based on differement department.

Thus you can achieve two different workflow - if the requestor is from department 1, one step workflow (only manager)will be triggered. If the requestor is from department 2, two step workflow (first manager of the department and then buyer of department 1)will be triggered .

I hope, it helps you.

Thanks and regards,

Ranjan
