<p style="MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 10pt" class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US"><font size="3"><font face="Calibri">We have done a very similar case like yours. As Susan described you can use standard workflow or can create your custom one. One way or another you also
need to customize sensitive fields for vendor master from SPRO under; </font></font></span></p>

Fields for Dual Control (Vendors) </font></font></span></p>
<p style="MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 10pt" class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US"><font size="3"><font face="Calibri">When a user creates a vendor master data or changes of it vendor account becomes blocked (only for payment run). If you want to prevent changes during confirmation
process you need to use a BTE, SAMPLE_INTERFACE_00001460 until confirmation is done through FK08.
</font></font></span></p>
<p style="MARGIN: 0cm 0cm 10pt" class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US"><font size="3"><font face="Calibri">Both LFA1 and LFB1 tables has a field called CONFS (Status of Change Authorization). When there is a change in one of the sensitive fields CONFS is updated
with 1 (blocked). This may be a starting point of your workflow. <span> </span></font></font></span></p>

<div><span><font face="Arial">I would like to apologize in advance if my question is very basic. However, I'm not completely familiar with all that SAP has to offer in regards to workflow. Our technical analyst is more familiar with this aspect.</font></span></div>

<div><span><font face="Arial">We have several users that have the ability to create vendors (in Finance and Purchasing). They have the ability to execute XK01 in order to do this. We chose not to limit these areas to specific t-codes for Finance and Purchasing.
Now, with some new players, certain fields are not getting populated or not getting populated correctly. One suggestion was to generate warning messages before saving the vendor. I have learned that messages are normally ignored unless it is a hard error.
I would prefer to use some sort of workflow that when the vendor is created, it must be approved first. I know there is an area in the IMG for confirmations but that relates to vendor changes, not creation.</font></span></div>
<div><span><font face="Arial"></font></span> </div>
<div><span><font face="Arial">Is there a workflow out there so that when a vendor is created, it would route to a group of people for validation? We are on ECC 6.0.</font></span></div>
