<DIV>Hello All :</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>I have an other question related to the BRF workflow . When the Shopping Cart is completely rejected ( all line items rejected ) by an approver , the shopping cart turns out to be non-editable and the workflow is completed . </DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>But at the same , if the SC got 2 items , item 1 is approved and item 2 is rejected , then work item is sent to the SC creator to take some action .</DIV>
<DIV>Is this the Standard system behavior ? . </DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>What I am looking for is when the SC is fully rejected , it should give the capability to the requester to edit and resubmit it.</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>Can anybody please shed some light on this issue ?</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>Your time and effort is highly appreciated in this matter.</DIV>

<DIV style="FONT-FAMILY: times, serif; FONT-SIZE: 12pt">
<DIV>Hello Ramki , </DIV>
<DIV>Thank You for your response . </DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>Is there a way through coding/customization , to create decision sets at item level so that for example when the line item 1 is approved , it does not have to wait for item 2 ? . Basically , what I am looking for is , item 1 status should be changed to "Approved" so that follow-on documents will be created.</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV style="FONT-FAMILY: times new roman, new york, times, serif; FONT-SIZE: 12pt">Or Shall I use any BAPI to change the status or write custom method to change the item's system status to "approved " ?.</DIV>
<DIV style="FONT-FAMILY: times new roman, new york, times, serif; FONT-SIZE: 12pt"><BR></DIV>
<DIV style="FONT-FAMILY: times new roman, new york, times, serif; FONT-SIZE: 12pt">Any ideas or suggestions welcome. </DIV>
