Goods confirmation in EBP

Mon Feb 10 13:40:49 EST 2003

Hi Jocelyn,

Thank you for your explnation. But I am still having problem in getting the
goods receipient.
I couldn't find function module in EBP to get the shopping cart number from
a PO number. Please let me know if you know the function.

One more thing SAP_WAPI_SET_WORKITEM_COMPLETED is working in SAPGUI but not
in the Web Inbox.

Thanks in advance

Hendri

Hi Hendri,

Re query 1: Don't use tables in EBP - use the provided function modules.
The tables you are looking at belong to previous versions and are no longer
relevant. The new table relationships are extremely complex and hence
function modules
must be used. E.g. BBP_PD_CONF_GETDETAIL.  Look at all the BBP_PD_CONF*
function modules
for confirmations.

Re query 2: EBP 3.5 has workflows included for approvals of confirmations -
you should
use them as your guide.  The approach you have used should work however as
BBPCF02 is not expecting to be called by workflow you may need to use WAPIs
(e.g. SAP_WAPI_SET_WORKITEM_COMPLETED or similar) to complete the work item
- e.g. you might be able to call this in the business add-in for saving
procurement documents.  Business object for confirmations is BUS2203.

Let me know how you go.

Refering to the query no 2, I have found the web transaction BBPCF02 for
doing the goods confirmation and create a task using FORM HTMLPROCESS method
to bring the work item to the transaction. The problem now is even though I
have executed this work item, it never dissapear from the inbox. As we know
FORM HTMLPROCESS is a dialog synchronous method and by right, executing it
should complete the work item. But when I see the log, the status is still
in progress.

After taking a look on the coding of the method, I suspected that the
EXIT_CANCELLED statement could be the reason. So, I copied the business
object then remove the EXIT_CANCELLED statement, change the task to refer to
this new business object but the problem still persist.

Can anyone please help me on this?
I am still trying to get the answer of query no 1.

Regards

Hendri

Hi workflow gurus.

I have a requirement to inform requestor and goods receipient of a shopping
cart to do the goods confirmation in EBP 3.5.

I have several queries about that.

1. Where can I get the goods receipient of a shopping cart? I found one
table REQACCT with GR_RCPT field on it but the problem is there is no data
on the table. Business object BUS2121 can determine the shopping cart
requestor but again it doesn't pick up the value from this table.

2. How to bring the work item to execute the goods confirmation screen? Is
there any hyperlink that I can use to do that or any business object for
doing that?

Can anyone please give some clues?

Thanks in advance

Regards

Hendri
