SRM Badi N-step

[Dart, Jocelyn]

Rats. 

I know it has also been done using a completely custom workflow, but
wouldn't want to 
steer you that way.  Or if you really do... contact me directly. 

Sounds like you might need to use the item approval workflow after all,
just making all approvers responsible for all items for your parallel
tasks.

Hi Jocelyn, all,

I ran into a runtime error while testing WS14000133/WS14000135 with
parallel processing 
(SWF_RUN611), and the only OSS note (829921) referred to Asynchonous
tasks.  This note did not seem 
applicable, so I filled out a Customer Message, and they tell me that
parallel processing is not 
available in these workflows, only if you are using WS14500015 for
Item-based approval.  The OSS 
note that that was provided in the context of my customer message was
731637, about using Item Based 
Approval.

Do you have any further insight on this?  We do not want to do
item-based approvals at all, simply 
route the cart to multiple approvers based on Profit Center if there are
multiple account 
assignments on the Cart.  Has anyone else had a similar situation ?  If
so, how did you resolve it ?

Regards,
Sue
