Work flow Problem in Updating Central Contracts in SRM

[Former Member]

Hi Experts,

Currently i am updating Tolerance limit in Contract Header data through following FM's from a Zreport.

Getting Contract details using BBP_PROCDOC_GETDETAIL and calling update method as below.

      CALL FUNCTION 'BBP_PD_CTR_UPDATE'
      EXPORTING
       i_header                              = ls_header_upd
       i_save                                 = 'X'
       iv_with_change_approval       = 'X'
     IMPORTING
       e_changed                           = lv_changed
       es_header                            = ls_new_header
     TABLES
       e_messages                        = lt_messages
       i_tol                                    = lt_tol.

and then calling BBP_PD_CTR_SAVE with the GUID imported by the previous function module.

      CALL FUNCTION 'BBP_PD_CTR_SAVE'
     EXPORTING
          iv_usertype                 =  'E'
          iv_header_guid            =  ls_new_header-guid .

Contract Header data changes Successfully !!! But problem is, change version is getting created with status 'Awaiting approval'.

When I open the contract in portal, I can see error messages  "Cannot get process info; function BBP_PDH_WFL_APPROVAL_SIMULATE throws exception Workflow Not Found" and "PDO Layer error". When I check in Approval tab there is no work item created for change version of Contract.

I want the change version to be approved after execution of report. we are using SRM 7.0

Thanks a lot in advance!!

Hi Karuna,

Do you want the approval to occur or not after the execution of your report? I mean do you want the system to automatically approve the contract or do you want your process schema (assuming you are using PCW ) to be triggered to determine the approvers?

Hi Naveen,

I want the change version to be auto approved. My PCW auto approves the contracts.

So either of the ways is ok for me.

Dear Karuna,

Did you find the solution for this issue? If yes, could you please share.

Thanks in advance.
