Cross-Company Workflows

[Allard, Carol]

Hi Jim,
We also have one custom approval workflow that is used for both invoices an
GL postings for multiple company codes.  The only "cross company" issue
we've run into is with a custom method I wrote to block the payment in
certain circumstances.  That was because I was using the FM
"FI_DOCUMENT_CHANGE" in the method, which expects to have only one object
reference.  In the case of true cross company documents, all related
documents had the same object key, so it was going into error status with a
"Too Many Documents" error.  I resolved it by changing the coding in the
method from the function module to a BDC session code.

Does anyone have experience with Cross-Company Workflows? In particular, I
have some questions about how you configured Parked Document Workflows
(FIPP) for your various companies. Did you create a separate Workflow
Variant for each company or do they share the same one? We have transactions
that span multiple company codes and I would appreciate any comments,
suggestions, recommendations, caveats, etc. you might have.
 
Thanks in advance,
