That confirms the way I was thinking.

Hi John,
I'm not sure exactly what you are asking, but we did something similar
where I work.  We coded the user exit to popup an approver window where=
by
the user can select the approvers id from a dropdown.  The userid's you=
 see
in the popup are restricted by a specific role.  Once the user id is
selected, then the approver's id along with the  employee's id are sent=
 to
the workflow container, and a custom event is triggered with a function=
 
call.  This was first coded and working in R/3, then when we installed
workplace/ESS, everything translated perfectly to the web front-end.
 
If you have any other questions, or I didn't answer the ones you had,
please ask.
 
Thanks,
Marty Braithwaite

Subject: ESS workflow
 
 
Hi all
 
I need to modify a working workflow that when a user saves an expenses
claim, a pop-up window is to appears with the approver's name, allowing=
 the
user to change.  ESS has not been installed yet,
I have two questions
When ESS is installed will this pop-up still appear to the users or do =
I
have to make any modifications for this to work the same in an ESS
environment.?
also
The current workflow is triggered by the expense claim save. For the
pop-up, i have the user exit I need, but this pop-up is going to happen=
 
before my workflow is triggered so the approval agent is not yet known,=
 how
should i change things so that the approval agent is known for the pop-=
up,
i.e. should I trigger the workflow from an event coded within the user =
exit
and then the changes from the pop-up can be re-input to the container?
 
 
Thanks
 
John
