Hi

Is there a way to disable workitem forwarding through out the system including for the admin? Doing it task by task will be the last option..

Also is there a way to remove the forward icon on the Approval screen (ITS)

Thanks

Hi,

The ITS service for the Approval screen in "BBPAPPROVAL" and the corresponding template is "SAPLBW02_1200".

To remove the Forward Icon ,comment the foll line:

<!-- Forward icon -->

<a href="JavaScript:call_WF('`BW02_1200-M_KEY_R<i>`', '`BW02_1200-M_KEY_B<i>`', 'FORWARD', '`i`')" onmouseover="status=' ';return true;" onmouseout="status=' ';">

<img src="`mimeURL(~service="bbpglobal", ~language="", ~name="images/icon/b_forward.gif")`" alt="`#FORWARD` `#BUTTON`"

BR,

Hi Skorpion,

perhaps too late, but I saw it by chance right now...

If you are speaking about the integrated inbox in SRM 5.0 or 5.5, you can disable several inbox buttons (approval, rejection, forward, resubmit...) by using the customizing:

Supplier Relationship Management --> SRM Server --> Cross-Application Basic Settings --> SAP Business Workflow --> Define Dynamic Columns for Integrated Inbox

Skorpion,

That is right you can use EC Decision and EC mail in order to disable approve, reject and forward button on the approval screen.

Hi,

In the foll path ,Supplier Relationship Management --> SRM Server --> Cross-Application Basic Settings --> SAP Business Workflow --> Define Dynamic Columns for Integrated Inbox,goto your corresponding Task of the WF(e.g. Task 10008126 for SC approval WF) and remove the attributes EC_DECISION and EC_MAIL.

This will disable the APPROVE and REJECT buttons in the Witem in the Inbox.

Thanks everyone for your inputs.

Is there a way to selectively disable forwarding (only certain workitems) in the Portal UWL ? Preferably using authorizations..I want to restrict this for SRM workitems.Will authorizations setup in SRM have any effect on the same workitem in UWL ? I am guessing not..

Thanks

Hi,

Go to the UWL iVew properties, property "List of UWL Actions to exclude"....

There U can mention "forward" to disable forward button permanently.

Hi,

For removing the FORWARD icon on the Approval screen you will have to modify the corresponding template.

To find the ITS service and the template for the Approval screen ,right click and say view source on that screen.In the HTMl code,you can find which ITS service and template that Screen is calling and accordingly you can change the code for the FROWARD icon in that template.

HTH.
