Purchase Requisition Approval Role Resolution User Exit (M06B 0001) Examples

[Griffiths, Mark]

My personal recomendation is not bother with the user exit but just copy the original worklfow and the approval step, and then change your copy of the approval step, remove the default role, pop it in your workflow and then use whatever role (of whatever type) you like.

Subject: Purchase Requisition Approval Role Resolution User Exit (M06B0001) Examples
 
I am looking for some examples of how to code the user-exit M06B0001 for
purchase requisition approval workflow role resolutions.  Currently I
have
my approval strategies working with the standard workflow configured in
table T16FW.  However, I used Jobs for each level of release codes to
minimize the configuration I had to do (L1 - Supervisor, L2 - Manager,
L3-VP, L4 - President).  I am using the org chart (without HR).  The
problem
I am having is that when it sends the work item to a L1 approval - all
users
with the job of Supervisor is getting the work items.  I would like this
to
go to the requisitioners supervisor only.  I am using the overall
release
strategy and I am on SAP 4.6c.
 
Is this as simple as creating a new rule such as a Responsibilty rule
(if I
change my mind and want the workitems to flow based on cost center) or
using
a pre-configured responsible agent assignment and calling this rule from
the
user-exit using code similar to the program ZTESTRULE in the Practical
Workflow book (page 275)?
 
If anyone can provide examples of how they have done this at their
company,
that would be a big help.
