Shopping Cart Add Approver option

[Former Member]

Hi all,

We have a requirement wherein after creating a shopping cart we can add approver by using the "Add Approver" button on the top, i just want to know what is the backend function module or BADI called while adding the approver manually.

In our case the creator can add his name as approver but this should be prevented, can any one guide me how to do this......

Its very urgent and every one is highly appreciated..........

Regards,

Hi,

What about method GET_REMAING_APPROVERS from BBP_WFL_APPROV_BADI ?

Hi

Which SRM version are you using ?

If you use WS14000133 as an alternative, you can determine the list of approvers flexibly according to your particular requirements.

You do this 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 (this can be more than one) and the number of steps in the entire approval process.

For more details, see the IMG:

Hi Atul,

We are using BBPCRM4.0 but my problem is whenever in the SRM browser the user is selecting the ADD APPROVER button he is giving his name as approver so i need to eliminate this, the user cannot select his own id as approver how can this be restricted.

Hi

This is standard SRM functionality of "ADD APPROVER" button.

Incase you want to add your requirement, this is only possible by either making modifications at the HTML template level in the Internet Service - BBPAPPROVAL (using SE80 transaction )or in the SAP program logic..

Do let me know.

Hello,

You have to implement the badi BBP_CHNG_AGNT_GET, method GET_POSSIBLE_AGENTS to filter the list of returned approvers.

hi,

2 badi for the approver modification:

BBP_CHNG_AGNT_GET : restrict / build your own list of possible agents.

BBP_CHNG_AGNT_ALLOW: allow to change the approver by enabling/desabling the change buttons.

See the foll related threads;

Hi,

You need to import support pack specified in the OSS note.You need to ask a BASIS consultant to do this for you.You cannot use SNOTE cos this Support pack contains about 2000 notes which cannot be applied through SNOTE.
