CATS Workflow

[Branco Marcina]

Gordon,
I'm in version 4.6C, and I've found the CATS transaction invokes the task
directly, not the workflow as such.
 
In config (transaction SPRO), do Cross Application Components -> Time Sheet
-> Set  Up Data Entry Profile.
 
For each data entry profile you can configure whether it is to have
workflow approval or not, and if so, you can specify the workflow task (TS
40007901 as an example in your case). To change these config settings,
double-click on the data entry profile, and scroll down to the workflow
section. Click the aprpopriate check boxes and fill in the task.
 
On the tasks supplied by SAP, you can change the texts without creating a
repair. Some of the standard tasks have a default role resolution. If this
does not suit, user exit CATS0008 can be used to determine the approver for
the timesheet (see transactions SMOD/CMOD).
 
There is good documentation on the system for this (see help-> application
help for say CATS0008, or 40007901).
 
Good Luck !
 
Regards,
Branco Marcina

Subject:  CATS Workflow
 
 
We are implementing Online Time Entry CATS as a pilot. I have been asked to
develop workflow for ensuing employees release their time and managers
approve it.
 
I have tried running the canned template, CATS: Approval using workflow
WS40001001 , however the task Generate Handle for Approval TS20000495
cannot be found.
 
I have tried to develop a simple workflow but getting into binding
problems. Therefore my appeal is for:
   Direction I should take.
   Advice on correcting WS40001001
   Does someone have an  CATS workfow that I could model.
 
I am a Workflow Neophyte, with a couple of SAP Workflow courses. I am also
the chief cook and bottle washer of the Workflow area.
 
Thank-you in advance.
