PO change WF problem

[Former Member]

Whenever we try to change the PO line item qty, we get the foll. error:

"No workflow found. Inform system administrator."

Our WF starting conditions for WF14000075 are activated and posted below:

___________________________________________________________

Start condition Workflow-Start WS14000075 United States Dollar

Business Object EC Purchase Order

Event Save Change Version

&EC Purchase Order.Total Value Diff.& < 3,000.00

and &EC Purchase Order.Simple Change List& NE PRT_MODIFY

and &EC Purchase Order.Simple Change List& NE ACC_MODIFY

True

Start workflow: Workflow Without Approval for PurchOrder

False

No action

__________________________________________________________________

The change in qty results in a value diff. which is less than $3000 and according to the above starting conditions, the WF should work. Dont understand why it does not work. We have deactivated and activated the starting condition several times but to no avail.

Would appreciate any help.

Thanks

HI ,

even though the amount condition is satisfied , looks like the other conditions are not satisifed and this results in the problem.

&EC Purchase Order.Total Value Diff.& < 3,000.00

and &EC Purchase Order.Simple Change List& NE PRT_MODIFY -

---

>

and &EC Purchase Order.Simple Change List& NE ACC_MODIFY -

---

>

are you sure the below two conditions are also satisified in your system?

If the conditions are not satisifed system would return errors...

Award points if usefull

Hi Usman:

I actually dont know what the other conditions mean, but this used to work in the past and last week, it suddenly stopped working. We never changed the starting conditions or did any changes to WF.

Strange behavior ??

Hi,

can you check out the following setting in your SRM system?

transaction ---> PFTC ---> task type 'workflow template' ---> task '14000075' ---> click on display .

then go the 'Triggering events' tab , You should find two entries there

event

CHANGEVERSIONSAVED

SAVED.

in the first column , there will be 'event linkage' , check for status in both the cases.

for the workflow to start for changed version , value should be green for both the cases.

Usman:

Both the lights are green.

[khan_voyalpadusman]

This issue happens only when the system is not able to identify the start conditions.

Request you to have a look at the following customizing , you have already told that you have not made any changes in customizing , but please have a look again.

transaction SPRO ---> Supplier Relationship Management ---> SRM server --->

Cross-Application Basic Settings --->SAP Business Workflow ---> Define conditions for starting workflows

Select EC Purchase Order (BUS2201) for Business Object,

Event CHANGEVERSIONsAVED.

system will show all the conditions for the changed version , please check wether there is

any entry available for WS14000075.

If there is any entry available , check wether the condition is active , green means active Red means Not Active

Usman:

The condition is active (green). I have de-activated and activated it several times.

Please have a look at the currency you have maintained in the purchase order and the currency maintained in the workflow conditions.

check wether they are different.

The currency maintained is same in both cases.

An interesting thing we discovered is that if we delete the following expression from the start condition, we have no problems :

&EC Purchase Order.Simple Change List& NE ACC_MODIFY

I dont know why ???
