EBP workflow with n-step BADI

[Martinek, Jerry]

Hi,
 
I don't know your business requirements and decision process for your
mentioned solution but what about replacing the z-table with a role.
 
You assigning all of your possible approvers to a role that is then assigned
to the task in the agent assignment(possible agents/approvers) section. Make
sure that the approval step/task it's not a general task.
 
Then when you execute your custom code where you derive/assign the
approver(s), if you can't find an approver, assign an agent who isn't listed
as a possible agent. What should happen then is that when the WF system
tries to resolves the agent/approver it will fail because the selected agent
isn't one of the predefined possible agents.

Dear All,
 
We are on EBP 4.0 add approving shopping carts using the n-step BADI for
defining the approvers. The approvers are stored in a Z-table (budget
limits and org structure not used).
In case there are no approvers in the z-table we want to put the
shopping cart in status error to have it displayed in the "Application
Monitors" with status error for the system administrator to handle this.
 
Any idea on how to force a shopping cart into error? Did someone already
do it?
 
Thanks.
