Process level configuration for shopping cart

[Former Member]

Hi Gurus,

I am new to SRM Process controlled workflow. i have a requirement to configure process level for shopping cart .

There are two types of approvers.1) SLA line approver, 2) Finance approver. 1^st Finance approver is SLA approver of Last SLA line approver. work item should route through all SLA Line approvers & 1^st SLA finance approver irrespective of shopping cart value & Approval limit of approver. Once Work item approved by 1^st finance SLA approver, work item route to next finance approvers & approval levels determination happens against shopping cart value & Finance approver’s approval limit.

can anyone help me with the steps to proceed

Regards,

Manoj

Dear Manoj,

Let me see how correctly I have understood. In your scenario, there has to be minimum (I do not know how many SLA line approvers are mandatory in your requirement) 4 process levels.

Level 1 = Approver1 ( SLA line approver 1 ) -- Generally comes from org structure

Level 2 = Approver2 ( SLA line approver 2 ) -- Generally purchase manager ( approver )

Level 3 = Approver3 ( Finance appover 1 ) -- Finance approver 1 not based on value in your scenario

Level 4 = Approver4 ( Finance approver 2 ) -- Finance approver 2 based on your value limit ( Define this in your expreesion )

Hope this helps.

Best regards.

Hi Abhijit,

Thanks for the reply,  Giving few more information

In my requirement , there are two types of approvers.1) SLA line approver, 2) Finance approver.

1.SLA Approvers

I have 4 SLA Line approvers in the SLA approver chain  and  workitem should be routed to all these approvers mandatorily without considering the approval limit .

Based on my understanding  from your above reply , should there be 4 process levels configured for SLA approvers ?

can you help me with the evaluation id  and responsibility resolver to be used for all these 4 levels .

2. Finance approver

There are three finance approvers .

First finance approver is the SLA Approver of the last SLA approver and  this level is also mandatory. once the first finance approver approves , the successive approvers should be determined  based on approval limit set in the org structure.

can u help with how do i configure this  ?

Thanks in advance.

Regards,

Manoj.

Hello Manoj,

I am sure you are looking for customization in your workflow.... right ?

In that case, follow the below steps.

1. Define filter values for BAdI define Agents

SPRO → SAP reference IMG → SAP supplier relationship management → SRM server → Cross application Basic Settings → Business Workflow → Process Controlled Workflow → Business Process Configuration → Define Filter Values for BAdI 'Define Agents' In your case there must be 6 levels ( 4 for SLA and 2 for finance ). So define 6 agents.

2. Customizing BRF configuration

    A. Define Group

    B. Define Event

    C. Define process level ( write your evaluation id for schema determination ) first process schema definition then your business object type and process level configuration. Define expression for process level schema.

3. Customize standard classes based on your requirements. Please go through some BRF documentation.
