<DIV>Thanks for all your replies. It is not any issue of authorization, users have PLOG and I was able to re-produce in PRD with SAP_ALL.</DIV>
<DIV>The virtual attribute source is eventually database but I wanted to get it using objects as much as possible. For instance, the position held by the initiator: In object type USR01 I added virtual attribue of type PDOTYPE_S calculated using evaluation path "SAP_US_S". Instantiation in SWO1 works perfect, DEV & QA works perfect, PRD system workflow container works perfect, but at runtime it sometimes fails to get the position attribute. </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>My simple workflow has two steps:</DIV>
<DIV>step 1 = container operation to get initiator user from workflow template container.</DIV>
<DIV>step 2 = simple decision, agent determined via rule.</DIV>
<DIV>step 3 = send decision via email.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>My biggest concern is why the workflow starts or proceed to step 2 before step 1 is completed. I always assumed it is sequential (I'm not using any form of fork, block or alike). I do consider changing step 1 to background task assuming it result in syncronous process.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>BTW, I created OSS for this issue, promise to let you know the conclusions.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Thanks guys!!<BR> </DIV>

But what I'm looking for is something that can tell me the current status as it comes into the doc_change_badi - not after it has left the doc_change_badi . While I was doing more investigation it seems that if there was something coming in on the item detail that would show me which button was chosen - such as inquire, reject, or approve, that I may could get my code to do as the user wants. I need something that indicates the current screen content as it comes into the
doc_change_badi when the "submit" is done on the shopping cart. I tried looking at the items - but don't see anything. Is there a function module or method that will show each inidividual item line status. I can loop through the lines and if they are not all set to the approve radio-button, then I can ignore updating the approval note. Do you know of anything else to call? Will something have to be done elsewhere to set the line item status into maybe some zfield of our o!<BR>wn before getting to the doc_change_badi? <BR><BR><BR><BR>Dale R.

workflow.

It <BR>> happens just like the approve submit action does and places the next <BR>> level comments in the approval note box. Can anyone recommend <BR>> current SAP code that may already be written that is doing what I?m <BR>> trying to accomplish or know of the correct badi that can be changed <BR>> to use our code.

workflow should trigger if a user<BR>changes a billing document (t-code VA02) to SUBMIT status.Two level of<BR>approvals is required for the billing document to create,all the agent<BR>determination is done via custom method with export<BR>parameters E_AGENTS referred to SWHACTOR.As the approval process will happen<BR>only from UI screen I did not use user decission task for this<BR>requirement,instead I used a task (Standard task with APPROVE and REJECT as<BR>terminating events) calling a method and raising a message(Decission should<BR>be taken only from UI) if the user clicks on the workitem in SBWP.An<BR>automatic customizing is done to send the workitem lying in SBWP to UI<BR>screen. Once the 1st approval is done following steps will do some database<BR>updates with agent determination step (via custom method) a workitem will<BR>go for the second approval.<BR>I have extended the standard object BUS2096 to ZBUS2096 with custom
events<BR>APPROVE , REJECT for 1st level approval and SSC_APPROVE and SSC_REJECT for<BR>second level approval and delegated to BUS2096. I have called this custom<BR>events as terminating events for the task (Task calling a method which will<BR>give a message to the user to take action only from UI). For the first level<BR>of approval process I have called APPROVE and REJECT as terminating events<BR>and SSC_APPROVE and SSC_REJECT as terminating events for the second level<BR>approval. While testing the object everything is working fine only until<BR>first level approval,once the first level approval is done the second level<BR>approval task is getting logically deleted.<BR>The testing process I have followed:<BR>1) Change existing sales order in VA02 with the SUBMIT status.<BR>2) Goto t-code SWUE and create event APPROVE for the BUS2096.<BR>After doing this I checked the status of the workflow in SWI1 where the<BR>second approval step is getting
logically deleted.<BR><BR>Can some one tell me what could be the reason for the secong decission step<BR>getting logically deleted.
