Responsibility Rules

[Soady, Phil]

Im interested in how people usually setup and PFAC RULE Responsibilities and Assignments.
Physically building it DEV is not the drama. (PFAC type responsibility)
Finding the best of approach to transporting the RULE and RY (Responsibility)
and performing the assignment in PRD, or direct maitained or RULES in PRD is the question.
Ideally an administrator would update the assignment directly as the target agents(Object/s) change.
 
What experiences can you share.
Has anyone got any clear recommendations on what worked for them.
Perhaps PP01...
 
PS: Im assuming the to be assigned objects eg ORG units positions whatever
will have a DIFFERENT id in PRD than in DEV.
 
Regards

Tell them that this is of course possible, but it costs them an arm and
both legs - and their soul too.
 
Looks like your best option is a custom report with ALV Grid display.

Hello,
 
we get complaints of our WF users about the non-flexibility of
showing/grouping the inbox tasks !! They are overwhelmed with messages and
do not find back the most urgent  or most critical or related tasks .... .
The fact is indeed that we have A LOT OF workflows;
- WFs for the validations of contracts (SD)
- WFs for the validation of orders (SD)
- WFs for the validation of scheduling agreements (SD)
- ....
In each of these WFs, there are several parties to validate. Moreover,
each party can change the SD document and hence we have to send back a
validation message to all the other parties ... . Moreover, we have a
validation workflow per sales document item while one sales document may
have several items and hence several WFs at the same time. So it is
obvious that the users want to see all related WFs one after the other ...
. Or want to see all WFs for a certain customer, or all WFs of sales
documents with a requested delvery date within x weeks, ..... . Or all WFs
already accepted by party X but not yet accepted by party Y, ....
 
I am aware of the possibility of using "dynamic columns" . In this way, we
can add additional info to the work item text and the user can define
sorting and filters on it. We use them of course already but this is
restricted to 6 columns. And yes, this is not enough for our users .... .
 
What they really want is some "very flexible way "  to select a part of
all their WF tasks based upon various selection options (additional info
of the WF object) and then sorted is some flexible way.
 
Does anybody has some good idea to help us ?
 
 
Kind regards,
Veerle.
