style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:Arial;color:blue'>Ok Jerry - Well your
*HUGE* mistake was directly reading tables in SRM. That's a no-no - why?
Because of course if the shopping cart isn't saved yet or you are in the middle
of changing it all the "real" data is in buffers and not yet actually
in the database tables. </span></font></p>
<p class=MsoNormal style='margin-left:.5in'><font size=3 face="Times New Roman"><span

<p class=MsoNormal style='margin-left:.5in'><font size=2 color=blue face=Arial><span
style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:Arial;color:blue'>Use BBP_PD_SC_GETDETAIL -
that will correctly read the buffers or the database tables depending on
the situation/where the shopping cart is currently. </span></font></p>
<p class=MsoNormal style='margin-left:.5in'><font size=2 color=blue face=Arial><span
style='font-size:10.0pt;font-family:Arial;color:blue'>And yes the requirement
tracking number *is* there it's BE_TRACKING_NO in the item table. </span></font></p>

BUS2121 by adding a new attribute (ReqTrackingNumber) which is populated from

works as expected. When the SC is ‘Ordered/Saved’ it also works
fine. However, on approval preview prior for new or held shopping carts, the
new attribute isn’t being populated because the BADI isn’t deriving
the correct approvers. It appears the new code isn’t being executed. </span></font></p>

the table entry isn’t populated prior to the cart being saved and that is
