Hi,

You can code in the n-step BADI, when you add to the approver table there is some indicator approver and reviewer.

Thank you

There is no direct way or any flag. You can use FM BBP_PDH_WFL_REVIEWER_INSERT in your BADI and force the required approver to become a reviewer.

This won't work. We tried this function module long time back.

Hello,

Yes - this does n't pull the reviewer if i order a cart without click the approval preview button. means.. in the step 3 - complete the Order screen there is the button called - Approval Preview.. if you click that before you order than review shows in the approval preview.. without clicking the button Approval Preview if you order the cart it won't bring the reviewer in the approval preview and also no workitem will send to the reviewer.. I think there is a link between Approval preview and this FM.. I tried to find but i couldn't...

Sonia,

Since you said this won't work. Do you have any other way to fix this issue.. waiting for your reply..

As a work around, you can call this FM BBP_PDH_WFL_APPROVAL_SIMULATE, to force the action performed by "Approval Preview".

No.. This is also doen't work.. I pass Object_type, Object_Id,Guid along with ET_Reviewer internal table.. but when i see the approval preview the reviewer won't be displayed as well no workintem sent to the reviewer inbox. i don't know any other soluction top of my mind..

No. Do not pass the reviewer table to this FM, just the object id.
