Change EBP workflow status to a custom one

[Dart, Jocelyn]

Raju, 
I don't have a problem with you copying the workflow - that's fine.
 
But the status is an entirely different matter.  It's not just whether
it works now - its the impact on upgrade as well. 
 
You would be better off leaving the status as-is, and making a cosmetic
change to the text displayed in check status.  That would still be a mod
but at least you wouldn't be risking destroying the shopping cart
handling processing.

Johnson,
 
Yes. The apporval preview wont work  automatically when you copy the
workflow. I had to make changes such as making it 'Adhoc' and change the
settings in workflow program exits tab. Then it is started behaving. I
had to do n-step approval and there are no BADIs for the version I am
in. Next version above 3.5 has BADI's. I do not know for sure in 5.0
when you copy a WF the preview works automatically.
 
The FM you mentioned works for existing status only. My issue is to
create a new one. After that I will use the F to change the status
 
Thanks
Raju

	Hi Raju,
	Not sure whether this will work. Have a look at function
	BBP_PD_SC_STATUS_CHANGE.
	
	I am curious to read that you had modified EBP shopping cart
workflow. 
	
	I just want to ask you whether you faced any problem with
'Approval'
	preview from SRM portal. When I created my own with copy of SAP
	template, the preview was not working as expected.
	
	Thanks

	Hi,
	I had to modify EBP shopping cart workflow.
	Although the cart is approved by all apporvers the workflow
status is
	still 'Awaiting approval' until a backend doument is created in
R/3. 
	Is there a way to change the status 'Awaiting approval' to user
defined
	status before it hits the backend R/3?
	Thanks
	Raju
