Urgent: Quotation Workflow: Message Approval WF is ambiguou

[former_member647476]

Hello,

We are using SRM4.0, Service Package 08. By default the system checks in PPOMA if one or more users are defined has Head of own org. unit and the system choose the first one in the hierarchy to approve the quotation (after supplier send his response). Only when the quotation should not have any approval, we allocate authorization profiles in:

Workflow WS79000002

Workflow WS79000010

This was working fine but now when the supplier pretends to publish the quotation we receive the following message:

<b>Approval workflow is ambiguous. Please notify system administrator.</b>

I already try to find some oss notes about but I didn’t check anything related.

Hi Tania,

"Approval workflow is ambiguous". You will get this kind of error when you have activated 2 or more similar condition for same business object (BUS2202). Otherwise inconsistance organisational structure.

Deactivate one workflow means WS79000002 onstep approval of bid or WS79000010 without approval of bid.

If Problem still exits, then check organisationals structure and remove if there is any inconsistance exits means more than one manager is assigned over the current employee

Pls reward point if this helps you

Hi Tania,

Problem is when more than one WF was choosen to approve this quotation (should be only one).

Go to transaction SWB_COND (WF Start Conditions) and compare start conditions of workflows for approval.

You can do this like this:

- in transaction SWO1 choose your business object and click on test button.

- fill GUID or number of the quotation (you will see all quotation parameters)

- on other screen go to SWB_COND and select WF for quotation

- compare start conditions for your test object.

- change start conditions
