Hi,

[ Classic Scenario, SRM server 5.5 ]

The business scenario is

When the Employee creates a Shopping Cart with the below values

> $0 and <= $ 1000 --> Manager 1 needs to approve

> $1000 and < $10000 --> Manager 2 needs to approve [ Manager 1 approval is not required ]

> $10000 and < $100000 --> Manager 3 needs to approve [ Manager 1 & 2 approval is not required ]

Which workflow should I use ?

Hi,

See the foll link:

http://help.sap.com/saphelp_srm40/helpdata/en/a3/a6a34098022a54e10000000a1550b0/frameset.htm

Since your approver is changing as per the value of the SC,you need to use the workflow WS14000133.You can also use the spending limit workflow with appropriate settings for the spending values.

Hi Karthik & Disha,

I am looking for WF whereby I don't need to do any customization. I am looking for a standard SRM delivered workflow for this scenario.

When I read the SAP help (http://help.sap.com/saphelp_srm40/helpdata/en/a3/a6a34098022a54e10000000a1550b0/frameset.htm) it clearly says that I can use WS10000276. But in the forum I have noticed that it is obsolete and I have to use the WF WS14000109.

If I use WS14000109, do I need ABABer help to take care of my scenario.

I can see the WF WS10000276 in the system. Can I use it ?

Please help.

With regards,

Pranav

Hi,

WS10000276 is 1 step spending limit approval WF while WS14000109 is n step dynamic approval workflow.In WS14000109 the approvers are determined dependent on the total value of the SC and on the approval limits of the managers.

So in both WS10000276 and WS14000109,you will need to set up the spending limit/approval limits for the user/approver as well as the starting conditions.In this case an ABAPER is not required.

However if you use WF WS14000133,the list of approvers is determined through the BADI BBP_WFL_APPROV_BADI in which the logic will have to be coded to get the list of approvers for which you require an ABAPER.

Hi Disha,

Wen I enable the WS14000109, I can create a start condition. But when I enable the WF WS10000276, I can't create a start condition. I don't see the WF WS10000276, when click on the "create" [start condition] button. Please help.

I am still in the process of testing both to choose one of them !

With regards,

Pranav

Hi,

If Step-by-step approval in ascending order of the approval limits of the managers of the organizational unit is required you may use WS14000109.To determine the list of approvers flexibly according to your particular requirements you may use the alternate WS14000133 , using the method GET_REMAING_APPROVERS of BAdI BBP_WFL_APPROV_BADI, with which you can integrate a logic for determining the approvers for each approval step( 1 or more).
