Maintenance Order BUS2007 Event: Created and...

[Former Member]

Hello experts, I have created a Workflow with the following steps:

For a Maintenance Order

- Trigger when BUS2007 Event:Created is reached

- User Decision: Approval/Rejected   Maintenance Order

Now, I need  if I choose Approval, the Maintenance Order is released automatically.

What do you do this?

Thank in advance for your help.

Hello,

Assuming you know how to release a Maintenance Order in SAP, you have to add a Release method to BUS2007 (by creating a subobject and delegating to it). Then create a TS task to call that method. Finally, create a step in your workflow to call that task.

Ok, I understand but I don´t know how to do it  (I know how create method by creating a subobject and delegating to it) but  I don´t know how to do with release method (Function Module? Transaction?) Attributes (Table? Field?)

Thank in advance

Hello,

I don't know it off the top of my head either - that's not really a workflow question. You would face the same problem if trying to do it in ABAP.

Maybe someone else here knows the FM or you could find the answer in another forum by searching SCN (best to use Google for this).

Hello,

At one site I saw that for this they used a method which called transaction IW32 and used a BDC.

I hope you can find a way to do it without a BDC

I find  this BAPI   BAPI_ALM_ORDER_MAINTAIN but I know a little about ABAP and I don´t know how implement this in BO (delegated) for release method.

Thank in advance

Hi,

See the example code in class CL_RPLM_MP_POWL_ORDER_PM, method RELEASE_ORDERS.

You should say what errors.

Hi,

Did you actually look at the sample code that I suggested?

It's pretty simple! OK, let me post it here for you.

    CALL FUNCTION 'CONVERSION_EXIT_ALPHA_OUTPUT'
       EXPORTING
        input  = ls_result-aufnr
      IMPORTING
        output = lv_aufnr.


* fill methods to prepare for BAPI
      ls_methods-refnumber = '000000'.
      ls_methods-objecttype = 'HEADER'.
      ls_methods-method = 'RELEASE'.
      ls_methods-objectkey = ls_result-aufnr.
      APPEND ls_methods TO lt_methods.

      CLEAR ls_methods.
      ls_methods-method = 'SAVE'.
      APPEND ls_methods TO lt_methods.


* set status to Released
      CALL FUNCTION 'BAPI_ALM_ORDER_MAINTAIN'
        TABLES
          it_methods = lt_methods
          return     = lt_return.

cheers

Hi Cristian ,

You dont need to worry , you can learn ABAP !!!

You are getting this error as you have not implimented the method which you have created .

Follow these steps .

Step 1 . Go to EDIT >> CHANGE RELEASE STATUS > IMPLIMENT

Now Release the same method .

Step 2.  Write this code inside the method .

DATA : lt_methods TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF bapi_alm_order_method ,

       ls_methods TYPE bapi_alm_order_method,

       lt_return TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF bapiret2 ,

       lv_aufnr TYPE aufnr .



CALL FUNCTION 'CONVERSION_EXIT_ALPHA_OUTPUT'

  EXPORTING

    input  = object-key-number

  IMPORTING

    output = lv_aufnr.



* fill methods to prepare for BAPI

ls_methods-refnumber = '000000'.

ls_methods-objecttype = 'HEADER'.

ls_methods-method = 'RELEASE'.

ls_methods-objectkey = lv_aufnr.

APPEND ls_methods TO lt_methods.



CLEAR ls_methods.

ls_methods-method = 'SAVE'.

APPEND ls_methods TO lt_methods.



* set status to Released

CALL FUNCTION 'BAPI_ALM_ORDER_MAINTAIN'

  TABLES

    it_methods = lt_methods

    return     = lt_return.

Step 3.    Now save and generate the Method and the custom BOR .

It should work .

All the best .

You know how to explain!

Hi Cristian ,

What I understand is you want to release the maintenance order using workflow approval process .

Steps :

1.In workflow header > start event use object type and link this with event .

2.use user decision activity step .

3.Delegate the BUS2007 and add a method in which write the code to release the maintenance order as suggeted by Paul use 'BAPI_ALM_ORDER_MAINTAIN' . Here use OBJECT-KEY-NUMBER as the maintenance order no .

.

Thank you for your help, but I never write an ABAP CODE and I don´t know why I have the next problems with the code recommend for Paul Bakker.

Hi,

  From line no 12 to line no 34 should come after line no 36

Thank you, I am trying learn

Is this the code?

This is the new error

Best regards

Hello,

If you are not an ABAPer then you should not be writing ABAP code until you learn how to do so. Luckily, it's easy! In the meantime, leave it to a colleague.

Yes, I know. It´s not for a project. It´s for me.

If you don´t want to help me, It´s okay.

Thank you

[paul_bakker2]

Everybody wants to help you (look at the number of replies!), but you're not making it easy.

It's like you are asking for driving directions ('how do I get to the beach?'), but it turns out you don't know how to drive ('how do I start the car?').

Time to crack open a book and learn a bit of basic ABAP. Luckily it's not too difficult.

good luck
