Workflow role 168/157

[Dart, Jocelyn]

Hi Anees,
Why don't you create an evaluation path and create a role using function
module RH_GET_STRUCTURE?
If you use this function module directly in the role, an extra parameter
opens up to allow entry of your evaluation path.
 
P.S. Yes there is a difference between 168 and 157.  157 is HR based -
returns positions, 168 is user based - returns users.
168 is more useful when you don't have HR loaded into your R/3 system.  157
is more useful when you are using R/3 HR.
Someone with some HR expertise might like to give the functional difference?

Subject: Workflow role 168/157
 
 
 
 
We are in a process of implementing the "Leave Application Work Flow" in HR
using the standard role type 168/157.
The functionality of role 168/157 is that it goes to the immediate
chief/supervisor, which we don't want, because in our plant's operations
there are 4 to 5 layers of supervisor and those supervisor are not define as
users in our sap system ,but all the Team Leads  and Dept Mangers are in the
SAP system, that why we would like to have only 2 layer of approval path.
(e.g.)  an Employee applies for leave it should go to his---->  Team Lead
(not to the immediate chief/supervisor),  then it should go to the  Dept
Mangers for approval, as role 168 does not do this approval path, Is there
any other role which can be used or any one have done this kind of approval
path what mention above?.please help.
 
 Is there any difference between role 168 and 157?
