Agent for workflow task TS20000159 (release step created)

[Bradshaw-Long, Kathleen]

Dear Workflow users,
 
This is a follow up to a previous question of routing a purchase
requisition to a second approver.  A few of you were kind enough to
respond and give me some ideas to check the release strategies and make
sure they are workflow relevant.
 
        I have done so and everything looks fine.  However, workflow
(which we are starting manually) is still only going to the first
approver...Even when there are 02 approvals in the release strategy. =20
 
        When we trigger the workflow manually (entering the requisition
no. and release code 01), we are putting in the position number of the
1st approver in the org. structure as the agent for the step overall
release of purchase requisition.  It is working fine.
        Then, when we trigger the workflow manually for the second
approval step (entering the requisition no. and release code 02), we are
putting in the position number of the 2nd approver in the org. structure
as the agent ---but the requisition is still going to the initial
approver's inbox.
 
        Has anyone used the default role 20000026 (person responsible
for release of requisition)as the agent for this step?
        I guess what I'm ultimately trying to understand is how SAP
automatically determines the appropriate agent for the workflow step
from the release strategy and org. management settings when we automate
the workflow. =20
