Urgent - Transporting Org Chart For Workflow While Implementi ng HR

[John A Haworth]

Hi Jocelyn
 
Thanks for that advice, I also have had the same problem, how can achieve
the same with the Sendmail task, as its a background task I am not sure how
to 'Bind' to a Role, Org unit, position, user etc seems ok but not Role.

Hi Abby,
Like any other part of the SAP system, you transport configuration data and
development
objects but not master data.
 
So you set up your agent determination rules in your development system and
transport
those through.  You can even set up the responsibility objects (i.e. the
combinations
of criteria) for transport if you wish when using a responsibility rule.
 
After the transport, you then assign your HR org plan positions, org units,
etc. to the relevant responsibilities
as part of master data setup.
 
The point of using agent determination rules (whether responsibility rules,
function module
based rules) or expressions is so that you DON'T assign positions and org
units directly
to workflow steps.  Your workflow is a development object and should be
treated as such.
Using positions and org units directly against steps is best kept for
testing purposes only.

Hi workflow experts -
 
I'm really sorry to bug y'all about this but I have searched all over OSS,
and the workflow book, and I can't seem to find an answer anywhere.
 
We are implementing HR along with workflow at my current client.  My
question is - how do we handle agent assignment within workflow templates,
and configuration of responsibility rules for roles?  HR is maintaining the
org chart, and it's all master data - so the numbers won't be the same from
one system to the next.  Will I need to go into each system and manually
configure which positions & org units will be handling which steps, and
manually configure responsibility rules within each client?    I'm pretty
baffled/worried and any advice would be greatly appreciated.
 
Thanks so much - hope you're having a wonderful day!
Abby  :)
