<P><FONT SIZE=2>Hi Felipe,</FONT>
</P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2>That is what we are using but the problem is when the position, that is set</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>as the superior of the employee, is vacant... The workflow comes out in</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>error... The role 168 does not take care of a vacant position or we don't</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>know how. The role return the position but it can not get the user...</FONT>

<P><FONT SIZE=2>Hi Serge,</FONT>
</P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2>Have you try to use the role 168 (superior of...) in the task to aprove the</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>expenses?, this role takes as a parameter the employee or the SAP user or</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>the position (HR structure) to look for the boss, Obviusly it has to be set</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>up in the Organizational Structure.</FONT>
</P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2>If you are not using the Organizational Structure from HR, you are alowed to</FONT>
<BR><FONT SIZE=2>create one from Workflow.</FONT>
</P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2>I hope It helps.</FONT>
</P>
<P><FONT SIZE=2>Regards.</FONT>
