<div>Hi,</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Now when I test my workflow I'm getting following error 'workflow agent cannot be determined'.</div>
<div>Following are the setting I did in workflow as well as in SPRO.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>1. I'm using task 'TS20000459' - TIME ADMIN</div>
<div>2. made TS20000459 as 'general task'.</div>
<div>3. used the varient "WORKFLOW'</div>
<div>4. under 'setup data entry profile' in spro did following: </div>
<div> </div>
<div> i) under 'person selection' tab selected radio button 'Time Administrator'.</div>
<div> ii)under 'Approval' i selected 'with approval procedure'.</div>
<div> iii)under 'workflow' i've put the task TS20000459 also selected both </div>
<div> checkbox named 'with business workflow' and 'with Auto determination of agent'.</div>
<div> Is there any specific config need to be done for 'Automatic determination of agent'? Where is what I missing :(.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Thanks a lot.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>-Nash</div>

<div>Thanks Claude. Like you said since the workflow is triggered by FM, can you tell what config need to be done(IMG). Can you please send me any documentation if you have since you have already worked on similar scenario.
</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Again thanks a lot Claude.</div>

<div><span><font face="Arial" color="#0000ff" size="2">Not sure about ECC 6.0 but in good old Enterprise (4.7), the problem is that in the CATS Data Entry profile config (table TCATS), you have to insert the TS directly in a field. Thus, no WS, therefore, no easy way to do deadlines and other neat things offered by the WS.

December 11, 2006 10:19 AM<br><b>To:</b> SAP Workflow Users' Group<br><b>Subject:</b> CATS WORKFLOW<br><br></font></div>Hi friends,<br><br>I've to do CATS approval workflow on ECC 6.0 and my functional asked me to look into WS40001001. One thing I noticed is that of the two tasks in the workflow one of the tasks TS20000495 is absolute; I mean it is not available in the system. Also at present we don't have org structure so I'm planning to write custom rule to determining agent from custom table. Does this approach helps?. This is quite urgent requirement hence client want it be done as soon as possible –not waiting for org structure to set up as it will take another 5 months for that.
<br><br>Can you tell me what is the business object to be used also is there any IMG config to be done?. If 'Yes' what are those. Points wll be awarded to all useful answers. Thanks a lot friends<br>-Nash </span></div>
